A: Hey there pull-ee. First and foremost, you need to ask your recruiter what your weight should be. With your exercises you’re going to need a lot of energy. I’d say 3500 calories a day.seems like a lot, but you back off incredibly on the weekends with that. Ok, vegan(never met a vegan Marine before) for starters:Grill everything! Grilling is extremely healthy.Intake: 6 meals a day including: your target weight minus 25 in grams of protein.No sugar, no whites, all brown and greens.(vegan) lolBrown rice(twice a day)Veggies(3-5 times a day)Beans(pinto mainly)(Twice a day)Salsa(snack)(twice a day)Sorry charlie, protein bars are far worse tasting than any shake. (Go to GNC and try a few, you’ll find one)Take supplements- Nitro Tech, Black Powder, Cell Tech, N.O. Explode These are great stackers. Black Powder is newer but i hear it does wonders. Creatine is ok, but not the pills(liver screwer uppers)Fiber-get yourself some fiber drink from the store, eat raisin bran.Do NOT eat past 8, and every morning when you unrack yourself, start it off with a nice 16oz glass of freezing cold water(jump starts the metabolism) Anymore advice my email is [email protected] this helps bro.

I need to lose 10lbs before September 1, 2009!?

Q: I am a 15 year old girl, and am 5’1. I need to lose 10lbs before school starts. An online calculator that I took- most actually said that I need about 800-1000 calories per day to lose about 2lbs/fat per week. Will this do the trick? I am naturally slim, but have been binging a ton, from my period and gained 10lbs. I don’t even fit in my school uniform anymore! It’s too tight! So I NEED to lose the weight…Please don’t ask how much I weigh now…Please don’t advertise any of those weight loss pills/diets…I am mainly looking for someone to come with a 800-1000 calorie vegetarian meal plan, low in fat, high in fiber, very filling, that will help me lose this weight before school.Thank you:)Alyssa

A: hmm, well i would definately recommend staying away from fast food restaraunts, and substitue soda, for juice and water. Also try to stay away from red meats and such. Eat more fruits and veggies. And also stay away from candy. Actually gum would be ok. Also exercise would not be a bad idea either. I know its a strict diet, but you dont have much time to reach your goal. Hope all goes well and you meet your goal. Good Luck!!! 😀

Is This a Healthy Diet? How Much Weight Will i Lose?

Q: hey y’all. i’m 16 years old, 5’2” and 150 pounds. its gross, and i really need to lose weight…and FAST. so i’ve heard a lot of really good things about the South Beach Diet, and i’m thinking about trying it. but there’s one small problem: i’m a vegan (no meat, no dairy, no eggs, etc). but i was wondering if i could still do it and if this would be healthy:breakfast: 1 serving vegan sausage, 1/4 cup red and green bell peppers and 1 stalk of celery cooked in 1 tsp olive oil and a glass of unsweetened soymilk morning snack: 7 almondslunch: 1 Cup romaine, 1 Cup spinach, 1 stalk celery, 1/2 Cup chickpeas with 1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar afternoon snack: 1/2 Cup broccoli with 1 Tbsp hummus, 1/4 Cup soy nutsdinner: 1/2 Cup morning star ground “meat” (soy), 1/2 Cup black beans, 1/4 Cup diced tomatoes, 1 1/2 Cups romaine and 1 slice vegan cheese so that all works out to:*about 1000 calories*41g fat*51g fiber*66g proteini’ll also be taking a multivitamin, b12 supplement and a calcium + vitamin D supplement every morning. i’ll be drinking at least 8 glasses of water per day, and any other drinks will be crystal light. so yeah, how much weight will i lose? the south beach book says you’ll lose 14 pounds in 2 weeks but is that true? oh, and as for exercise, i have gym class every other day at school and we run and lift weights and sometimes go ice skating or roller skating and stuff like that. i also work at a day care every day for a couple hours and play jump rope and kickball and stuff with the kids. on the weekends, and when i have time during the week, i’ll run on a treadmill (at an incline) for about 30 minutes, and lift weights every other day for about 15 minutes. thanks in advance. y’all are loved.

A: I think it sounds like you’re doing really good. The only thing is you might want to add a couple of hundred more calories because 1000 is really low. Maybe a couple of more almonds or so. Just try to bring it up to 1200. You work out and need to eat a little bit more to fuel your body. But other then that everything sounds great!!!! GOOD LUCK!
