HI! I am following a diet plan and I am working on typing it up ....I have lost 12 pounds in just a few weeks and I am wondering if anyone is interested in taking a look at my plan and maybe also following it! I played volleyball my freshman year at Auburn University and I am also putting together cardio/agility workouts if anyone would like some! Send me a message or reply to this post if you are interested!
My diet consists of eating these servings amounts: (1200 calorie diet):
2 Servings of protein
4 Servings of vegetables
3 Servings of fruits
2 Serving of starches
+ 1 protein bar/fiberone bar/kashi bar

    I would love to give it a shot, maybe that is all I need to loose these last 10lbs!

    When you put it that way, it makes me realize just how little the body actually NEEDS. Notice I did not say "wants"! This inspires me to eat more fruits and veggies, and leave out all the junk! I know I overdo carbs, even though I stay under my calorie goals. My next goal, besides maintaining, is just to eat healthier, and keep the "junk food" only as occaisional treats, instead of regular indulgences!

    I am a vegetarian, so my diet consists of more low calorie foods.

    Breakfast:
    Cereal w/ rice milk
    or
    Smoothie w/ soy vanilla milk for flavour

    Lunch:
    Rice crackers w/ hummus
    or
    Tortilla chips w/ salsa
    and salad with either.

    Snack:
    Cascadian farms granola bar

    Dinner:
    Salad with a sandwich
    or
    Salad with some tortilla chips
    and every once in a while I have something different.

    This is just generally, it can change up with rice and bean wrap or cabage w/ rice. :P Hope this helps!

    STARCHES I EAT:

    Each of these equals 1 serving of a starch:

    Diet Bread- I love Ezekiel 4:9 bread in the frozen section- very filling!
    Melba Toast (unseasoned) 2 slices- it is like a cracker and can be found in any grocery store
    Unsalted Rice Cake- 1 cake per day
    Corn Tortillas- 6" diameter- I love to cut the tortilla and bake it in the oven for 7 minutes and it makes great chips!
    Ryvta Cracker- 1 cracker

    Only 3 times per week:
    Baked Potato- 1/2 small
    Brown Rice- 1/4 cup cooked
