I changed my eating habbits completely. I eat anywhere between 1200 to 1400 calories per day . I eat 5 times a day. No sugar, only splenda and diet drinks, tons of water at least 4 to 5 cups a day, whole wheat products (pasta, bread, rice etc). Lost of fruits, veggies, lean meats, and lean cuisines. My day looks like this:

7:45am Breakfast:
Oatmeal with some skim milk and banana OR
Special K ceral with skim milk and grapes
cup of coffee with low fat creamer, a little skim milk and 2 splendas.

10:30 am Snack:
low fat (60 calorie yogurt) with water OR
a fruit like an apple and water and 5 small whole wheat pretzel sticks


12:30-1pm Lunch
Anything I want, but in small portions and a diet drink

2pm cofee with skim and 3 splendas

5pm Snack
Fruits with water OR baby carrots with water

8:30pm Dinner
Lean quisine with carrots and a diet drink

I do this Monday to Friday and Sat and Sun I slack of a little.


I go to spleep around 11pm

This works for me because I have a hectic scheudal. I am now doing my fulltime internship for law school and taking classes at night.

I wake up around 6:30am and work out at home about 30-40 minutes 3 to 4 times a week. I dont do the gym thing becuase of lack of time. I work out with excersise on demand they have a ton of things to suit every level and need. I have 3lb and 5 bl dum bells and an excerise band to help me.

Good luck.

I began my lifestyle change in January and lost 20lbs since. Right before I left on vacation Ineeded to loose 5lbs more and did so in 2 weeks.

The other girls are right, excerisie is the key, but you need to cut out food from your diet that slows down your metabolism and put in foods that rev it up. Google info on foods and see what you can add to your diet.

Re: SWR...weight loss....

i dont know if what i did will help you becuase i really didnt do much, but i just changed the way that i ate. always eat breakfast, if i have a big lunch, then little dinner, little lunch, big dinner. Snaks are kept to a min and if i do its fruits and veggies. Water with crystal light to drink instead of soda.

must have worked cuz ive dropped 118 lbs and still loosing.


HTH gooog luck! im sure youll do GREAT!
