Is My Diet Good for Loosing Weight? Can I Do More? Any Tips?

This week’s question is a good one. Let’s have a look:

Question: I am 5.9, 202lbs, 18 years old, 24-25% body fat. -_- i know….. Well I am in the middle of P90x and wanted to check if this is a good diet to loose weight. Morning: whole wheat bread w/ tbs butter, some coffee. Mid evening: after first p90x workout. a nature valley, dark chocolate, whole oats bar with half a cup of Whey protein/milk mix. Lunch: chef salad with grilled chicken and balsamic vinegar. Second workout. snack 1/2 cup of whey and milk mix. Dinner lentil soup with 2 whole wheat flat bread.
total calories consumed: 2020 BMR: 2020 Calories burned: 1200 Total Deficit: -1200.
Each week i burn about 6000 calories

Is whole Wheat bread all crabs? should i cut some stuff out and eat less? should i always feel hungry when you are trying to loose weight?
Monica James. I am not a 18 year old 5.9, 202 lb WOMAN WHAT ARE YOU SMOKING -_-.

Answer: Add some healthy fats and lower your carbs a bit. It will take away the constant hunger. Your calories are in the right range for the activity level. You should burn off fast. (1-2 lbs per week)

Diet, Can I Loose Fat Like This, Any Tips?

Keep the diet tips questions coming! I liked this one:

Question: hey im 19 and have good muscle put a few years of being in active has given me a tiny bit of fat only on my low belly and my back is not as cut as it used to be.

so i tried to chang my diet and its as followed.
the diet doesnt change its.
morning 7 egg whites 1 cup cereal.
snack protein shake
lunch 10 0z chicken 2 slice of whole wheat bread veggies
dinner salmon or steak and veggies.
snack protein bar 1 peice of string cheese.

i started at 155 and after 9 days im up 3-4 lbs.
i assume its muscle because how could i gain fat??? i lift everyday and cardio every other day.
my intake is 200g protein. only 80 carbs a day.

will i loose some fat like this i want my abs back !!!
any tips or if im on the right track let me know

Answer: Hey man if i were you, i would reduce the carbs to at least below 40 grams if you are going to lose fat. I mean you are eating 200 grams of protein, which is able to conpensate with the lack of carbs. With that much protein you might as well eliminate all carbs or reduce the protein to 80 grams and up your fat intake drastically.

Losing Fat takes time but I am sure this will work for you. Good Luck, and have fun with it.

By the way, always remember to carb binge once in a while ;-)
