I am a sixteen year old female, I am 5'4 (64 inches) and I weigh 109lbs. I am not fat but I would like to be on the more toned, healthy side since I eat really bad. I eat lots of greasy and sweet foods. It is really hard for me to commit to a good diet unless it is planned out at exactly the hour and day, every day of the week. I never have breakfast and when I do which is rare, I eat something like a snickers. I need a diet plan for every day of the week exactly planned out for me.
eg:
Monday
6AM - Glass of water, apple, toast?
8AM - Glass of water, (fruit, other food)?
TUESDAY
(ect.)
Also I need a plan on an exercise I can do that will not bore me and hurt a lot.
I do not like sit ups but I am willing to do about 50-100 every night. If anyone could come up with a really detailed plan on when I should eat what, drink what and when to exercise I would really appriciate it.
Also, I would appriciate a good healthy suggestion on cereal that I can eat in the morning so I can shed a few pounds.
Additional info, added Friday March 7 2008, 5:54 pm: I am mostly concerned about my abs.. Want to answer more questions in the Health & Fitness category? Maybe give some free advice about: Nutrition? LOL_x0x answered Friday March 7 2008, 7:03 pm: To start, you need to eat breakfast. It kick starts your metabolism, body funtions, etc and you are MORE likely to lose weight when you DO eat breakfast.
- Don't think I'm just saying that either, my mom is a registered nurse and this is a fact.
Anywho...
-As for what you should be eating:
Cut out junk food, obviously. Eat fruits, vegetables, and protein.
- For what you should drink:
Stick to water, and healthy fruit juices, preferably those without a lot of sugar (i.e. apple/orange juice, V8 Splash, etc.)

Also, I personally like to go on long walks and look at people's houses and yards. Hiking would be the most fun and non-boring exercise. It will tone your legs butt and abs while you get outside and enjoy nature. Drink only water and tea-soda and fruit juice is very fattening. I like Kashi cereal for breakfast or oatmeal--lots of fiber and good carbs. Good healthy foods are whole wheat pasta and bread, fish, fresh veggies, fruit, beans, tofu, nuts, and if you are a meat eater, chicken and fish. You should eat breakfast when you are hungry in the morning, for example, tea, a piece of fruit and oatmeal, have nuts like almonds or pumpkin seeds as snacks, then a nice filling lunch..I eat beans and rice for lunch often. Maybe yoghurt for a snack, and a balanced dinner with lots and lots of vegetables. When you feel hungry throughout the day eat fruit or nuts or raw veggies. I know this isnt a day by day plan, but just some suggestions. You can find those exactly planned meals in magazines like Women's Health, Shape, Fitness, or Self. You can also find them online or in dieting books. Just thought I'd share some basic advice. Hope it helps. [ person43's advice column | Ask person43 A Question ]
