Weight Loss Food Pyramid, Nutrition by Natalie

Mayo Clinic Healthy Weight Pyramid
http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/healthy-diet/NU00190

A healthy-eating plan can be illustrated in many ways, but it’s often found in the shape of a pyramid. Food pyramids outline various food groups and food choices that, if eaten in the right quantities, form the foundation of a healthy diet.

Healthy meal plan for weight loss…?

Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010

Here is a typical day of my eating. I feel it is very healthy but if you have suggestions to tweak to optimize results, it is greatly appreciated. Right of the bat I will say I believe in carbs, so low-carb diets are not for me. I am going to weight watchers and for my weight, these 31-32 points are appropriate. I will not eat less calories than this, just wondering if I should increase protein, veggies, fruits or anything.

Breakfast:
1 cup Strawberries (or other fruit)
1/2 cup plain fat free yogurt
1/2cup All Bran
2 Tbs Ground Flax
1 Tall Skinny Caramel Latte (my treat of the day =) )

Snack:
1 Fruit
High Fiber, 100 calorie Granola Bar

Lunch:
2 slices whole grain bread
3 oz lean meat
1 oz reduced fat cheese
lots of veggies
1 fruit

Snack:
2tbs hummus
carrot sticks
whole wheat pita

Dinner:
3-4 oz lean meat
Lots of veggies
1 cup whole wheat pasta or brown rice
1 cup of milk

eat all you want as long as its small in portion!!!!! so far its been working for me and i eat alot of outside food. i just need to limit my self

How to build a well balanced meal plan for weight loss.?

Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010

I weigh approximately 170, I walk 3 miles atleast 5 days a week (48 min), 1 hr water aerobics twice a week, and strength training/cardio workout video 3 times a week. I want to build a meal plan but I want it to be very balanced with fat, protein, and carbs. I also want as little meat as possible, but eggs are ok! Does anyone have any suggestion also, in my nutrition textbook it gave a formula to figure out how your bmr and mine was 1659, so I figured to lose 1 lb a week I would have to eat 1159 calories a day, so how much of that should be fat? carbs? protein?

Thanks in advance!

At 170 and as active as you are, 1659 sounds a bit low. Perhaps it’s not counting for activity level? Try this one to see what you get:

Regardless, don’t drop below 1200 or you’ll send your body into starvation mode & it’ll try to hang onto the fat.

Aim for 40% carbs (veggies & whole grains), 40% proteins (chicken, fish, or steak… yeah, I know you said little meat, but these really are the best), & 20% fats (nuts, PB, etc). Even 50/30/20 works. Make sure you get a LOT of water too! Split your calories up into 5-6 small meals.

What is a good weight loss plan for someone that doesn't eat a lot of meat?

Monday, February 1st, 2010

What diet plan works best for someone who doesn’t eat a lot of meat?
I am trying to lose weight, but have very poor eating habits. I don’t have the money for a nutritionist, and also have to think of my kids and what they want to eat. I don’t like meat, and don’t eat it very often, which leads me to believe that I may be missing some important components(protein, and others) from my diet. I do take a multi-vitamin. I would like to start this ASAP. Does anyone know any websites that would give me diet/meal plans that are both kid friendly and healthy. It seems that all we eat are chicken nuggets, fish sticks,a nd pizza!

I am like you , in that I don’t like any red meat although I will eat turkey and chicken. My diet is eating lots of salads- which are very healthy and fortifying if you use the right ingredients. My favorite is grilled chicken strips, mushrooms, tomatoes and red onions over a bed of mixed greens. All of the necessary ingredients are there. To find good kid friendly web site to help you, I suggest you simply go to Google search with you information and I’m sure you’ll find something.

How does my weight loss for modeling meal plan today sound?

Saturday, January 30th, 2010

For 18 years girl, 144 pounds 5 feet 9 inches, losing ten pounds for modelling sake :( i know….please don’t pick on me for it! I wont be unhealthy!

Oatmeal for breakfast: 200 and tea w/o sugar

Lunch: chicken quessidia with low cheese and no oil

fudgicle: 100

veggie burrito: 320
carrots
i usually have more fruit, but today was sort of an exception…does this sound okay?

(i have already had all this)

get rid of the fudgcicle.

If you’re going to be deliberately underweight, you really need to eat more vegetables and fruit. I also reccommend taking vitamin supplements, and make sure you drink at least some skim milk and.or calcium supplements…

can you please give me a sample meal plan for weight loss?

Friday, January 29th, 2010

i am 5′3 and 150 pounds. i want to lose 25 pounds by june 1st. please help me make a meal plan that is high in protein and fiber, and low in simple carbs, sweets, and fats.

and a workout plan would be nice as well. thanks =]

I lost 105 pounds in 6 months. Here is how I did it.
1. Every morning get up and walk for 45 minutes. You can start with less time, but you want to get up to 45 minutes, and it must be fast walk. You want your heart rate to go up. It must be in the morning, it kick starts your metabolism.
2. I cut out Red Meat, and fatty foods. Boneless skinnless chicken breast, baked, or grilled, rice and vegetables (steamed).
3. Eat half. Just eat half of what you normally eat. Put 1/2 on your plate, and put the rest away. Cook less. When you go to fast food, get salads only. Or grilled chicken. No fries, only diet soda. Or water.

It will work, once you get into a routine, you will get hooked on the results, and you will keep the routine. It has been over a year for me.

A sight with some really cool diet calculators and interesting calorie counting calculators is here. Check it out.

Stay motivated, and get up and walk every day. I seriously lost all my weight starting off my day on my walk.

Good LUCK!

Been doing the O diet, want to switch to a more inclusive weight loss plan. Any suggestions?

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

Been doing The Blood Type O Diet . Burned out and still have weight to loose. Want to follow a non so restictive meal plan which produces weight loss. Any suggestions? Something that will not make me ballon up in pounds the minute I sniff a carb!

wow…you’re going to have to be verrrrrrrrrrrry careful here. Switching to even a low calorie diet will probably cause weight gain initially. I’d be looking at 1200 calories a day and see how your body reacts. Then, if all seems to be going well, add 100 calories a week to your diet until the balance starts to shift back to weight gain (if that doesn’t happen right away). The only thing that will really help here is exercise in order to offset the effects of introducing carbs back into your diet. Hopefully you’re already exercising 30 to 40 minutes a day on this low carb program. If not, strap on the running shoes or you’re libel to see a rapid weight gain even on a low cal plan. Have a look at this site it might give you some ideas…good luck..
