What is the best breakfast for someone on a diet?

Tuesday, July 27th, 2010

I have been having cereals that have a serving size of 1 cup for breakfast every day for a while, and I have been losing weight. However, I just read that cereals are highly processed, and the chemicals can make you gain weight (not from some random person, but a nutritionist.) If this is true, what’s a good LOW-CALORIE supplement (he suggested brown rice, oatmeal, etc. which I would rather avoid.)? Thank you!

What’s wrong with having Honey Nut Cheerios or any other cereal for breakfast while on a diet?

Friday, July 2nd, 2010

I’m on a Diet and for breakfast every morning I have cereal. This morning I had Honey Nut Cheerios. People are saying I should feel guilty about that, and that cereal consists of "empty calories". Is this true? Is eating cereal really that bad for you?

all i meant was that you basically ate all carbs for the day. this wont satisfy you and you will end up feeling hungry sooner compared to if you ate a balanced meal/diet. the right proteins help keep you full and provide nutrition for your body while cereals like honey nut cheerios wont keep you as satisfied. some cereals and bars are loaded with high fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated oils (aka trans fat) and preservatives. the healthier option would be eggs/egg whites with whole wheat toast, toast with natural peanut butter, milk, cottage cheese with fruit. a balance of carbs and proteins.

Starting a new diet, need some examples of a small meal for breakfast, lunch, and dinner?

Thursday, June 17th, 2010

Im starting my New diet today. Now i know your suppose to eat 5-6 small meals every 3 hours. But i don’t know what are some good breakfast, snacks, and dinner foods that meet that criteria.So my question is what are some example of small meals i can eat for breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner. Thanks

Breakfast: yogurt, granola, fresh berries
Whole grain cereal with dried fruit
Egg white omelette with a grapefruit

Snack: Almonds
Laughing cow cheese with wheat thins
Fruit
carrot sticks

Lunch: Whole grain bread (toasted) with avacado as a spread + sliced tomatoes + turkey bacon
Pasta salad ( whole grain spiral pasta loaded with shredded carrots, tomatoes, olives, broccoli, chicken, and pesto sauce)
Chicken salad ( I use canned chicken, italian dressing, chopped veggies, walnuts, dried cranberries)
Veggie wrap
Veggie burger ( I buy frozen veggie burger patties)

Snack:
Fruit Smoothie ( my favorite is banana, strawberries, vanilla yogurt, peanut butter)
Mixed nuts ( Unsalted)
Celery + peanut butter

Dinner:
Mixed green salad with some type of protein (Salmon or Chicken are good choices) and a light dressing
Turkey + avacado burgers
Veggie stir fry

Those are just a few examples I could think of at the moment. Alot of the times I make a big batch of soup on the weekend and eat that as my lunch or dinner throughout the week. I read that giving yourself less than 3 options for mealtimes really helps you stick with your Diet and I find that to be very true.. so make yourself a menu and write it down. Write down what your going to eat everyday before you walk into the kitchen and stick to it. Good luck with your diet.

In a diet i know eggs for breakfast is good so do breakfast hot pockets count?

Wednesday, May 19th, 2010

I really dont like eggs but i recently found that i love love love breakfast hot pockets. the have egg cheese and ham or egg cheese and bacon and i get lean pockets so theres only like 7 grams of fat. are those a good enough source of eggs??

They have a lot of preservatives.
Try this: Take a whole wheat tortilla, scramble an egg or two, whatever your taste is, and throw in lowfat natural cheese, chopped onions, peppers, and other light veggies, sprinkle on salt and pepper, and eat with a banana and a glass of milk. Delicious, fresher, and infinately healthier than any Hot Pocket! :)

Ideas for breakfast on the nothing white diet. stomach gets upset in the morning if eating only protien?

Thursday, May 6th, 2010

I want to start the nothing white diet but I can not find menus. I know its no carbs or sugar right?
Breakfast is going to be hard. I have stomach issues and usually cant eat meat in the morning.

Any suggestions?

Nothing white isn’t a no-carb diet. It’s a no refined-carb diet. So no white pasta, white bread, potatoes, white rice, sugar, white flour. It’s wholegrains instead; wholegrain pasta, rice, cereals, etc.

It’s actually a fabulous Diet and encourages using healthy carbs rather than the usual crap. So I don’t know what you eat in the morning, but if you had a wholegrain cereal with fruit, you’d be fine.

Lose Weight With The Right Diet

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

Losing weight is not about Dieting such that you starve yourself. By starving or eating less you cannot lose weight. Instead if your body does not get the right quantity and quality of food, it uses up the internally stored energy to make up for the less food supplied and thus you may put on weight instead of losing as your muscles are lost and not fats.

Another myth is that if you are losing 1 kcal per day then you might as well lose 500 calories in two days, the effect of both being the same. Well, this is absolutely wrong. By doing this you may have muscle loss and loose flaccid skin which again would be a major problem in your appearance. The key to a healthy lifestyle and good body is having the right diet.

Firstly you need to have proper 3 meals during the day, out of which the breakfast is the most vital meal for the body. It is said that breakfast like a king, lunch like a queen, and dine like a pauper! You may start off your day with cereals or oatmeal, boiled eggs, fresh and home-made fruit juice, cornflakes, etc.

Your meal must be high in proteins, fibre, and complex carbohydrates which will build up your body muscles. Usually non-vegetarian food is high in protein like eggs, fish, chicken, etc. Avoid red meat in your diet. You should also have one glassful of milk everyday to build up calcium in your body to strengthen your bones and teeth. Rice, potatoes, fruits, wheat, etc contain high carbohydrates. Regularly have green leafy vegetables in your meals.

Avoid junk food like chips, hot dogs, deep fried items, cakes, sweets, soft drinks, etc.
Also avoid eating processed or canned food stuffs as they contain lot of fats or sugars. Incorporate the habit of eating salads with each meal. Use oil-free dressing if needed for the salads. Also see to it that you eat fruits after a meal. You should have fruits instead of snacks in case you feel hungry between your meals.

Along with having the above balanced diet, you should also keep in mind that your body needs copious amounts of water to full out the toxins. You should make it a habit to have a glass of water after hour; this will keep your complexion clear and glowing.

There are a number of fat burning medicines available in the market in the form of amino-acid capsules or lipotropic. However, none of these medicines would do as good to your body as following simple exercises everyday. The aft that you have on your body is not going to melt off with the above stated tips; it is just not going to add up. To burn off the excess weight you need to regularly exercise.

It is not easy to follow this regime of proper diet especially when you have so many pizzas, pastas, burgers coming up; but it certainly is not difficult, all you have to do is tame your body!

Good Diabetic Breakfasts Can Help Maintain a Healthy Diabetic Diet and Keep You Going All Day

Monday, March 1st, 2010

When you have diabetes whether its diabetes type one or type two, you should be prepared to start making meal plans of what you will eat every day. Whilst main meals can become the focus of any diabetic diets, the truth is that meals throughout the day will need to be monitored. As well as eating three healthy meals, you may want to reduce the portions and start eating snacks throughout the day to help keep up a constant blood glucose level.

The start of any day should be with a healthy breakfast. It is essential to get going for the day, and it is important you do not skip breakfast. Before you were diagnosed with diabetes you may have had a certain routine of what you ate, and this may not need to be altered too much. Most breakfast cereals will be fine and healthy for you to eat as well as toast and breakfast muffins.

At breakfast time you will want to make sure that your appetite is satisfied, making porridge a great choice for your breakfast meal. You can also have a portion of fruit at this time to help contribute to your intake of fruit and veg and maintain a balanced diet. If you usually sweeten your food you should avoid this, but you can use fruit as a substitute for sugar. Fruit juice may not be the best option for the morning as it can help to affect your blood sugar levels quickly, so avoid it or limit the levels you drink.
