Is this diet healthy?

[Anonymous]

the stuff at the bottom says to not count fruit and vegetables and to start on a Monday.

I'm trying to lose weight/get in shape. My dad says you shouldn't be on a diet that has less then 1000 calories a day. But it doesn't count fruit and vegetables so is it okay?

If it is not healthy what is a healthy diet?
I've been on it for a week and I feel great.

You don't need a diet just eat carbs like potatoes and rice you actually need to eat more than 2000 calories but in veggies and no one gets fat off of eating rice and potatoes you get fat off of eating fatty foods. Cut your sugar intake down a bit and you can eat as much veggies and fruits as you want because they are so low in calories and they are good for you. Diets like this are great at first until you get stop restricting yourself and then the weight comes back on. I eat 2500 calories or more a day and I lost weight just by eating more carbs like rice potatoes. There should be balance you don't need to restrict yourself. Try going vegan for a month or vegetarian and eat only plant based food and you have so much more and watch you will lose weight the healthy way.

absolutely not! your brain burns at least 900 calories while you sleep. the calorie defecit you are creating will make you crazy! message me and I will help you. I study nutrition, Im in school for it :)

you might want to reword that. your brain doesn't consume 900 cal during a nights sleep.

that's complicated... all you have to do is make sure you dont eat more than 50grams of non fiberous carbs a day.

don't worry about the calories part.

here's an example

31grams of total carbs. 2grams are fiber. so that's 29grams of your 50grams used up for the day. do not exceed 50grams per day.

Have at it. Just note, if you are going to be generous with fruit DO NOT CONSIDER fruit juice a part of that. In fact, fruit juice is something to avoid, as it has equivalent sugar and acid content as soda.

tell that to the juicers lol

[ConsultantIsBack]

@orphan Lmao when will they learn

[akadatank44]

Nope its not. Do not eat less than 1200 calories a day.

[JustADude20026]

That's good if it's not. lol. She wants to lose weight, so let her.

[akadatank44]

@JustADude20026 anything below 1200 calories a day is terrible. Your body goes into starvation mode and then you can actually gain weight cuz your giving your body too little energy. Food=energy

[ConsultantIsBack]

Although I would not necessarily recommend a very low calorie diet, on a brief run they can be extremely effective.

And your last comment about the starvation mode is false and a myth. Just wanted to point that out, but we're bros so don't be offended.

[akadatank44]

@ConsultantIsBack really? I was just reading shit today about it lmao.

[ConsultantIsBack]

If you have a link you want me to check out i'm welcome for that

[JustADude20026]

But after a while your body gets used to it. Therefore, out of starvation mode

[JustADude20026]

Oh yah, I thought that might have been made up so kids don't starve themselves.

[JustADude20026]
