diet- was i bad?


Question Posted Saturday July 3 2010, 9:50 pm

im on a really strict diet and today i feel like i wasnt so strict.

breakfast: beet, apple, carrot juice (i made it in a juicer)
and ice coffee with fat free half and half
lunch: diet brocc suffle- made with frozen brocc, eggwhites, onion soup mix (barely any calories...)
another ice coffee.
dinner: 110 calorie bagel thin with 70 cal of tuna with a DROP of light mayo and lettuce and tamatos .
then my head started pounding and tylenol didnt help so i REGRETTFULLYYY had chickne soup.
in it was carrots and sum chicken and obviously the broth.

i feel like i should not of had the soup though. im on a really strict diet and i feel like that wasnt deit friendly and i lost control.

am i wrong? was it ok? was it not?

Just so you know, I speak from experience. I tried a ton of diets in an effort to lose weight, and what finally did it was relaxing. I lost 25 pounds, hit my goal weight, and stayed at it.

You're not gonna want to hear this, but you're not getting enough calories. MINIMUM, you should be getting 1500 a day. At 1200 or lower, your body goes into starvation mode and actually stores what you put into it rather than using it. This can slow your metabolism, thereby making it harder for you to lose weight.

If you're aiming to lose weight, try eating small, balanced meals every 3-4 hours. That'll kick your metabolism into high gear, and your body will learn that it has to use what goes into it quickly. You don't want to leave your body wondering when it'll get food next, which is what happens when you don't eat enough, or often enough.

Why is chicken soup bad? It's soup. Your head was probably pounding because you're not eating enough/right. If the soup helped your head, it could easily be because you needed sodium, or fat, or whatever was in there. You need to reevaluate your "diet," and try reevaluating your lifestyle instead.

Wow you don’t eat much at all, i am thin and i eat more than that!

If you are overweight it’s ok to be on a diet but you can eat more than that as long as you burn it off. It’s normal to have the normal daily amount. And with calories the normal amount is 2000 a day! and you burn most of it off when doing daily things, if you want to lose weight then look at the diet and you can eat a lot more if you just increase your metabolism which is a thing that helps to digest food faster, to increase it you can always ask Google or basically just always move! You will always find that you can always do something to keep moving like tapping your foot pace when on the phone fidget a little move positions when sitting. Stretching every now and again when at home stand up walk a little and sit back down ECT.

It’s not nice to be on strict diet it’s no fun and it can limit you and you will not have as much fun. I know what you mean about feeling guilt but you should not. You are allowed to eat whatever you want and you don’t eat much as it is. So stay healthy and eat more! (but not like loads more) just make sure to drink a lot and do a little exercise and just say to yourself keep moving even though i found it hard

I hope this helps sorry if it does not.
Good luck
