I used to overeat so now I only eat when I'm hungry. for breakfast i have some sort of fruit or eggs for lunch ill have some oli and salt peanuts or some sort of fruit then when i get home from school ill have some sort of fruit and then ill eat whatever there is for dinner (my parents eat very healthily so ill just eat whatever they make but in a smaller amount) i dont ever starve myself.. whenever im hungry ill have some fruit. also i try and drink at least 2 if not three bottles of water while im at school and ever more at home i have completely cut out bread (before i was eating way too much.. 5 pieces a day) also i have cut down on carbs in general i have also completely cut out sweet stuff (except for the occasional SMALL cookie or half a cookie at school when my friends are offering) i just now had a coffee and i put a lot of milk (about a cup) and 2 spoons of sugar do you think its okay if i have this once a week? i know i should deff not do this everyday- - its just i need to stay up late tonight to do work :P i guess in general i do not want to do any extreme diet- - because i want this to be more of a life style change i have been doing this for two weeks today.. and havent noticed that much of a difference. in the past though it has always taken me a while before i start to actually lose the weight.. so im hoping on my third week now ill start to see a difference- - what do you think? any personal or similar stories? also i walk to school everyday and take a 40 minute fast walk on saturdays and sundays do you think i should change anything to my 'diet'? thanks! btw im female 17.. (if that makes a difference)

Yes, this is a good diet for maintence. However, you need to be carefull the amount of fruit you are eating, yes you need fruit but don't forget it is almost pure sugar, sure it is good sugar that you need but still sugar. So I would reccomend less fruit, and a little more protien, as well as more veggies.

Actually you are not eating enough which is not good for your metabolism to work well. Google a better diet.

Congratulations on making healthy eating choices at a young age! This will follow you into adulthood. The diet that you are eating now is pretty health I must say. Just make sure that the health foods that you are eating are enjoyable. This way you will be more likely to stick with them long term. Make sure that you start an exercise program if you haven't already. I'm proud of you, you set an example for others your age!
