Reply from kade, Age 19 - 01/08/08 - IP#: 71.8.231.xxx calorie wise your ok, but not nutrition wise. stuff like poptarts is bad for breakfast because it has so much sugar. id have a bowl of cherrios or scrambled eggs instead. its really important not to go more than 4 hours without eating, so you should eat lunch, atleast 300 calories. cake and fries are ok as treats but they shouldnt be eaten reguarly as a snack, you probably consumed about 700 calories in that snack, and it didnt really have any nutrional value. try this instead: for breakfast try eggs or some lowfat cottage cheese with fruit. protein is good for breakfast because it keeps you full. for lunch a sandwich with fruits and veggies is a good choice, plus its easy and yummy. for your snack id try a cheese stick and a few low fat triscuts, so you have salty stuff and cheese, plus a fun sized chocolate for your chocolate craving. make sure you eat about 500 calories of lean protien like grilled chicken or fish plus more veggies, fruits, and a light starch like a baked potato for dinner. sugar causes you to have cravings and mood swings and stuff, not good. enjoy stuff in moderation, but id skip the fries. good luck!
