Fruits based diet

Variety is key, enjoys lots of good foods. Too many fruits would be bad for you and I may be wrong but, I don't think most are very high in protein which you need lots of to retain muscle as you slim.

Also that menu doesn't sound high enough in calories. Work out your TDEE and cut 10% off of that. Enjoys all the different food groups to nourish your body.

It's what I'm doing in this moment: I enjoy all the I like and let me feel nourished, but this is giving me fat (also if very very very slowly).

Where is the protein?

In the dinner.

It doesn't sound very balanced. Fruits are indeed high in sugars, and making them such a major component if your diet is not a good idea. Have eggs for breakfast, soup and a sandwich for lunch, meat and veg for dinner, with 2 pieces of fruit as snacks, and you're good to go.

Eggs for breakfast? I barely have breakfast. Really, I don't usually have breakfast because of some reasons. When I eat something for breakfast, is geneally or a cup of tea (with lemon) and cookies, or homemade orange juice, or a fruit (recently I used to eat 4/5 mandarins for breakfast). Or, unfortunately, some snacks from supermarket. I can't drink milk because I'm quite intollerant to it and I've never eaten eggs for breakfast.

I agree with the others you will need protein veg and complex carbs as well as fruit but what you listed looks pretty good to me and men generally need more protein.

Also your calorie calculations are already set at a deficit so make sure you meet the calorie goal set for you (or get as close as you can)

Is what you listed enough? You don't have a lot to lose so I am assuming that your calorie goal might seem high but it is what you would need to lose in a healthy way. I can't view your food diary so this is just a guess.

Yeah my calories goal is set to a deficit because of the the fact that I'd like to lose weight, but I'm not logging my food accurately because I'm not eating accurately recently. Anyway, I think I set my food diary as public.

It is a very bad idea. You need fat and protein to keep your body and mind working properly. This is science fact. You may get people talking opinion which disregards reality saying it is a good idea, please don't listen to them.

I would recommend you read this and the links from it :-)

good luck

There aren't enough proteins in the dinner?
I red the entire thread of your link plus all the links inside it, and I learned a lot of things, thanks But my goal is still to eat helthier, and in that links there's no mention of this.

there are some that follow the 80-10-10 diet and that is mostly fruit actually

ultimately though you might want to consider why you are doing this. If you really like fruit and that's all you want to eat then go right ahead. If you are doing this, because you think you can lose weight quicker and easier, I would reconsider and just eat what you normally eat within your calorie deficit.

No, well, friut isn't the only thing I want to eat. I like fruit, sometimes I prefer a fruit rather than a dessert, but definitely isn't the only thing I like.


As a side note, just to make the picture of myself more accurate, here are some information about me:

I'm Italian, and here we use to eat a lot of pasta (and bread). I eat pasta at least one time per day (usually for launch) and sometime two times (launch and dinner), with a huge amount of grated Parmesan/Grana cheese. I really like pasta (and bread), but the problem is that is very full of carbs and calories (more than what MFP says), so I don't know how healthy is it. Moreover, it is made of white flour, and out here is full of places and people who says that white flour is not healthy at all, that is treated with chemical substances that drain all the real nutrients from it, and so on. I really don't know who trust.

As I said, I don't usually have breakfast. I know that is a very bad habit, but I'm not used to have an Americans like breakfast with bacon, eggs, quiche and so on. In the past my breakfast consisted of a cup of milk with coffee and sugar with (sometimes) cookies or cereals, but now I can't digest milk and I stopped drinking it (I still use to eat many different types of cheese and mozzarella during the week (not for breakfast, of course)). I also like bread slices with marmalade for breakfast, but I don't always have homemade marmalade since some fruits are available only in determined periods of the year. So, I accept suggestions :P

I avoid sodas, cokes, fizz dinks, chocolate (but I don't feel guilty with dark chocolate in small amounts), nutella, candies etc, and I feel very very guilty when I eat any amount of potato chips (and I don't eat them often). But I drink bottled fruit juice, and I don't know if it's an healthy thing or not.

Again, my goal is first of all to eat healthier, so I'd like to have an overview of the foods that is better to avoid (monosodiumsomething?!?!?) that are not the common ones (see above). Regarding the weight loosing aim, it's secondary, I know how to lose weight since in the past, with the help of MFP and Runkeeper, I lost 3Kg with very small changes to my normal diet and exercising.


Thanks again for the help to everyone
