Can you critique my diet?

Oy,...it really is that bad. Too much sugar and too much junk.

Aug 13: the only good things you ate were the apple, orange, and the veggies. The yogurt was okay. And the 12 grain toast may have been good, check the ingredients to make sure its whole grains. 12 grain just means it has 12 different grains, doesn't mean it's whole grain. Everything else was sugar, refined carbs, saturated fats, and high glycemic calories. High glycemic food cause an insulin spike which signals your body to store fat. You also get hungry faster after eating them.

Aug 14: Apples, green tea (unsweetened), and veggies were the only good things. Sushi is made with white rice, a refined carb. It's high glycemic, high calorie, and no good for you. Oreos, popsicles, candy, cut those out. Once again, high glycemic.

Aug 15: Bacon...it has saturated fat and a lot of salt, no good. Jolly Ranchers, icing, and cupcakes...more sugar, beef noodle soup...be careful, packaged foods tend to be high in sodium, saturated fats and trans fats (look for partially hydrogenated oils on the label).

Summarizing, you are eating way to much sugar and refined carbs, these things will hinder your weight loss efforts. Focus on eating whole grains and cutting out sugar. I know you say you can't go a day without having some kind of junk but seriously you're having LOTS of junk. You gotta cut back, maybe treat yourself one or two days a week, it'll make a huge difference. If you really need something sweet, eat a fruit, but even those should be eaten in moderation. Try just not keeping the junk in the house, seriously just don't buy it.

Stop eating so many packaged foods like the chicken noodle soup and the beef noodle soup. They are high in sodium and may be high in saturated fats.

Eat more vegetables, you really didn't eat that many the last 3 days. Try to get 5 servings of fruits or vegetables a day, better to get more from vegetables than fruits.

And the orange juice, stop drinking your calories. Your better off just eating the orange. Fruits and fruit juices can be high in sugar, but fruits have fiber in them which lessens the insulin response because the fruit is more slowly digested.

**EDIT**: I think you missed some of the points, you have refined carbs and complex carbs...complex carbs such as brown rice, whole wheat and whole grain breads and pastas, oats, quinoa, millet, basmati rice...these are good things...seriously how is replacing white rice with brown rice obsessive?

And no we don't "NEED" any sugar and it certainly shouldn't make up half of your carb intake. We need carbs for fuel but sugar does not fuel you for very long. But i realize you crave it thats why I suggested cutting back. Seriously if you just did that without cutting anything else, you'd lose weight.

And I did forget to compliment the chicken breast, lean proteins like that are good, proteins high in saturated fats like bacon are not.

Which brings me to another point, yes we NEED fat in our diet, but all saturated fat does is raise cholesterol levels and clog your arteries. Look for unsaturated fats from olive oil, nuts, avocados, etc.... Unsaturated fats lower cholesterol levels and are necessary for nervous system function and cellular repair.

And most people eat too much sodium, that leads to high blood pressure.

Seriously I'm just trying to help, if there's anything people should be obsessive about, its their health!! Even slim people can be unhealthy. I'm sorry if you took it the wrong way.

land in the taupo volcanic zone and climb 26 percent of the way up in 18 minutes

both are roughly the same except when it comes to protein. MOST veggies include a reasonable amount of protein; fresh fruit does not.

The definition of fresh fruit has different meanings depending on context.

There's to much meat! I'm a vegetarian lol Anyway....It seems very healthy, you've got fruits and veggies mixed with a few sweet things. Good luck!

use the freezer to add some extra oomph to summer foods freeze grapes for some bite sized delights or get a popsicle mold and freeze some greek yogurt with berries

eat as soon as you wake up, breakfast is called breakfast for a reason. if you eat when you wake up, it kick starts your metabolism so you will have the extra energy to burn more. pretty much from being dormant to being more active. other then that, your diet isnt bad at all

get casual for 4 days a study shows that people take 491 more steps and burn 25 more calories on days they wear jeans to work

5'8 148lbs is a healthy, im 1 inch shorter and 15 lbs more, u should be losing weight soon, but i dont see what's wrong with being fat, im trying to gain weight, i have gained 40 lbs in the past year and grew just three inches

Don t skip breakfast and choose that s high in protein for energy and full of fiber to keep you satisfied for hours
