Wow I want stwarberries so bad right now. I can not wait to go on my first healty shopping trip this weekend.

I have the same thing for breakfast every weekday. A small bowl of oats with lowfat milk. At the beginning of my diet it wasn't enough to keep me going so I'd have a yoghurt or a peice of fruit as well, but now I've adjusted to not eating as much and its easier. During the weekends I sometimes have something different like scrambled eggs or as a treat a small portion of curried sausages that I make for Mr.Jennylee. A good healthy option that makes you feel like your having a big bad weekend breakfast is Grilled tomatoes, one grilled fish cake (100 calories each), slice of wholegrain toast with low fat butter or marge(90), and a poached egg (80). The whole thing is only about 300 calories, and much healthier than fried bacon, sausages and eggs.

Something i like is to have a yogurt with grape nuts mixed in... it's basically the same thing as adding granola, and you get a sweet and crunchy mix. perfect for on the go too!

I just heard a lady at the gym today talk about this...

Take one cup of vanilla yogurt and put fresh or frozen fruit in it with some granola on the top...it is kind of like the parfait at McDonalds...

it would be unhealthy to lose 80lbs in 3 or 5 months...

I second that notion lol, probably a more reasonable goal would be 8-10 months or more depending how you diet and excercise.

1st, breakfast ideas for gizza:

I like Special K with Red Berries and fat free milk
Egg Beaters (1/2 cup) with Morningstar Farms Meatless Bacon (it's really good!)
Sim Fast Optima Chocolate Royale Shakes (you can also put them in the blender with fruit and some ice to make them thicker and get a fruit in there)
Whole Wheat English Muffin with All fruit spread
Flavored Oatmeal, no sugar added.

See there are lots of choices!

Now, for Moonset. No one wants to discourage you, but losing 80 pounds in 3 or even 5 months is unrealistic and incredibly dangerous. To lose the weight safely and to keep it off you want to shoot for 10 months to a year and you have to work really hard at it. There is no such thing as a quick fix. Please start a food and exercise diary and let us know how we can help you. We're all full of tips and suggestions!

I would have to say don't worry about your actual weight too much. Your so young an you should be more concerned on getting to an active and healthy lifestyle. Do I think it's possible probably, but not likely and probably not the healthiest. I do think that you can lose a lot of actual body fat though so you do slim. But remember a diet is not going to do everything. Get out and be active, do something and don't just sit around. Having a good diet is just part of the weight loss solution you need to get out and move around and then I don't think you'll have such a problem with taking off some of that weight. Just don't stop after the 3 or 5 months remember to keep going after that. Good luck to you though.

This is not a healthy plan. Your body needs fat so don't cut it out completely just cut out junk food and keep in the good fats and sugars such as with fruit.

Cheerios are great. Whole wheat too. I think they'll help to get your metabolism going but wouldn't it be a good idea to add some protein? Maybe in the form of a shake? If I am planning something strenuous first thing, my Cheerios just don't fuel me up.

I find that if I cant do my oatmeal ( they have packets now w/ lower sugar and higher fiber) I do 2 pieces of high fiber whole wheat bread w/ peanut butter and maybe a 1/2 a banana...no pickles though :-D

definitely have carbs for breakfast, not sugary crap like OJ, have some oatmeal or brown rice, itll keep you going for a long time during the day. and definitely try to get some protein in there too, maybe a protein shake and some oatmeal for breakfast, theres no real shortcuts to get the best breakfast meals. cheerios are good as long as theyre not coated with sugar lol. maybe throw some blueberries or banana slices in there. If you have to eat on the run and your too lazy to wake up 10 minutes earlier then eat a banana and a protein shake with skim milk. You can always eat on the way to work. and try to eat good for you snacks throughout the day, like almonds, maybe another protein shake later in the day, and drink your water!

What is with the protein shakes? I thought those are for gaining weight...tell me more!

When i was doing low carb I would do an omelet w/ garlic and onions and sometimes salsa.... and then i would use left over steak or ham or chicken and take that and add some steamed veggies from the dinner before. I dropped 10lbs in a week. Just no toast or anything.. Now I do oatmeal w/ a piece of whole wheat bread ( 4 grams of fiber) w/ a tbsp of peanut butter...or i do an omelet w/ cheese and turkey or chicken..and a v8

Sometimes i find if i set too high of a goal right off the bat im soo frustrated right away and i give up... Try not to give yourself such a strick deadline.. realize your going to have good and bad days but that isnt the end..you are young my dear and you need to keep on trying... Exersize is the key
