Answer 1

Get your calories up man...you should be well above 1200/day if you are male. The less you eat, the slower your metabolism...the slower you lose weight and the easier you regain it.



Get some veggies in there, and more protein. Dinner shouldn't be huge, but it should be more than a whey shake and a piece of fruit.

Answer 2

I would suggest a cleansing diet. I lost 12 pounds in 9 days and then 28 pounds in less than a month. I also lost a lot of inches too! I learned that cleansing will help the body get rid of toxins. Toxins come from a lot of things like fast food, pollution, food additives and preservatives and lots of other things. The toxins get stored in the fat in our body. To get rid of the fat, we have to get rid of the toxins by cleansing the body. This made sense to me and I decided to try a cleanse program and it worked. The weight came off fast and this kept me motivated to keep going, not like other diets where the weight loss it too slow. I did Jenny Craig, Weight Watcher and Medifast.

Good luck whatever you decide to do! http://thebestcleansingdiet.com

Answer 4

instead of whole wheat, do whole grain breads or pastas. for dinner instead of a shake for your protein have actual lean meat. then move your protein(casein preferably) before bed, say at 8pm. here is what helped me and check out the website below to see my results. email me if you have any more questions. good luck

Try these good nutrition meals. It helped me lose 70 lbs. in 9 months, along with a workout program to help you burn calories and build lean muscle which helps you burn more fat and lean down and tone up.
