Hello everyone :)

So this is what I'm planning on eating everyday. I need to lose 20 pounds so, please leave any tips and let me know what you think!

What I plan on eating:

Breakfast:
- 1 original Quaker instant oats made w/ 180ml semi skimmed milk
- Handful blueberries
- 1 tsp natural honey


Lunch:
- 2 slices wholemeal bread w/ 2 tsps bertolli olive oil spread
- 1/3 pack wafer thin turkey
- lettuce, cucumber etc

Snack:
- 1 muller light yoghurt (only 90 calories woo..)
- 1 small apple/orange

Dinner:
Literally whatever is cooked in my house. However I have been encouraging my family to cook healthier so nothing is really that fattening or calorie dense!

Exercise:
- 25-50 mins walking (mod pace)
- Minimum 20 mins Zumba (wii game)

I drink NOTHING but water or a variety of teas

Do you think I'll be successful if i stick to this? Obviously not eating this every single day but you get it! :D

Thank youuuu

    Hi first you need to determine what is the amount of calories you should eat a day to meet your objective.

    You should weight your food precisely with a scale and add the calories to your journal. This way you will know how much you ate and can adjust to meet your goal.
