Hello! I'm starting a diet and have made a plan, but I know almost nothing about... well, anything. So I could really use some help and advice from someone who knows about dieting.
I'm 5'7, 24 year old female weighing 200 lbs. Not morbidly obese, but still pretty obese, and I need to lose weight. My goal is 130 lbs, and it's the weight I'd like to keep once I reach it. I made a diet plan for the next five weeks:
WEEK 1
Breakfast: Coffee, banana, apple
Lunch: Glass of water, 2 boiled eggs, apple
Dinner: Ginger tea, apple
WEEK 2
Breakfast: Coffee, 2 boiled eggs
Lunch: Glass of water, cream soup (tomato/brocolli/carrot/mushroom/asparagus/pumpkin)
Dinner: Ginger tea, apple
WEEK 3
Breakfast: Coffee, 2 boiled eggs, apple
Lunch: Glass of water, salad (lettuce, tomato, cucumber, corn, carrot, fresh cheese)
Dinner: Ginger tea, apple, banana
WEEK 4
Breakfast: Coffee, banana, apple
Lunch: Glass of water, 2 boiled eggs, apple
Dinner: Ginger tea, apple
WEEK 5
Breakfast: Coffee, 2 boiled eggs, apple
Lunch: Glass of water, vegetable soup
Dinner: Ginger tea, fresh cheese
I decided to put in cheat days for every seven days. Nothing major, I plan to eat normally on those days, like meat, pasta or bread. I have also figured a daily exercise for myself.
After every meal, I'll do one minute plank. In the evening, before sleep, I'll do one hour exercise in series of 10 squats, 10 lunges, 10 situps, 10 caudal fins, 10 push-ups, and 10 jumping jacks, then after hour is over, I'll be doing 10 minutes of stretching. On sunny days, I'll go to university with a bycicle instead of public transit. The distance from my home to my university is around 10.5 miles, so that would be 21 miles a day, and on weekends, I'll be doing yoga. I also have a dog, which I walk three times a day between 15 and 30 minutes, depending on how much time I have.
Is this an okay regime? Is it healthy? Should I make changes? What should I do after the five weeks? As I said, I want to lose weight in healthy manner, but more importantly, I want to change my lifestyle. It doesn't matter how long it takes me, I'm not in a hurry. Thank you very much!
EDIT to add: I plan to drink around 2 litres of water every day, not just that one glass.
