Excuse my interruption for inserting this in the middle of this serious discussion, but I came across this the other day, cannot help myself to post it here, due to the topic discussed. Soooory in advance, Matbla.
A New Way To Lose Weight
A fellow was reading the paper one day lamenting the fact that his
doctor has ordered him to lose 75 pounds. Next thing he sees is an
advertisement for a guaranteed weight loss program. Guaranteed like
heck, he thinks to himself. But lets see what they think they can do.
He calls them on the phone and subscribes to the 3 day, 10 LB weight
loss program.
The next day there comes a knock at his door, and when he answers,
there stands before him a voluptuous, athletic 19 year old babe
dressed in nothing but a pair of Nikes and a sign hanging around her
neck. She introduces herself as a representative of the weight loss
company. The sign reads, If you can catch me, you can have me. Well,
without a second thought he takes off after her (like who wouldn't).
A few miles later, huffing and puffing, he finally catches her and has
his way with her. After they are through he kisses the girl one last
time and thinks to himself with a nod, I like the way this company
does business.
For the next two days, the same girl shows up and the same thing
happens each time. On the fourth day, he weighs himself and, sure
enough, he has lost 10 pounds. Deciding that he likes his somewhat
more slender physique, not to mention the method of treatment, he
calls the company back and subscribes to their 5 day, 20 LB weight
loss program. He thinks that losing 20 pounds in only 5 days seems
like a lot, but he is intrigued by what their workout schedule might
be like this time.
As expected, the next day there comes a knock at his door. When he
answers it there stands a 22 year old knockout dressed in nothing but
a pair of Reeboks and a sign hanging around her neck. She is simply
stunning, the most beautiful woman he has ever seen. She introduces
herself as a representative of the weight loss company. The sign
reads, If you can catch me, you can have me. He's out the door like a
shot. This gal is in excellent shape and it takes a while to catch
her. But when he does, it is worth every cramp and wheeze. She is
wonderful, the best he has ever had. He is really looking forward to
the next four days... For the next four days, the same girl shows up
and the same thing happens each time, much to his delight. On the
sixth day, he weighs himself and, unbelievably, he has lost another 20
pounds. I love this company, he thinks to himself, I never knew
losing weight could be so easy and so much fun.
Feeling much better about himself, he decides to go for broke and
subscribe to the companies 7 day, 50 pound weight loss program. Are
you sure, sir? asks the representative on the phone. This is our most
rigorous program. Absolutely, says he, I love your program. haven't
felt this good in years! The next day there comes a knock at his
door and he enthusiastically answers it. There stands before him a 200
pound perfect specimen of a man dressed in nothing but racing spikes
and a sign around his neck. He introduces himself as a representative
of the weight loss company.
The sign reads, If I can catch you, I can have you.
thank you all i wish you could put in a menu form so i can hang it on the ice box
like on monday for brekfast eat__? lunch eat__? dinner eat__? snack eat__? and drinks do it for a wek for ttuesday awedensaday and so i on so on tuesday i can look at it and know what to eat i hate picking for a list
please do not reply with the same replys as above i asking a different request thanks a million you all from matt blake
Matt, I think I understand what you are asking for and I really don't think any member on here is qualified to tell you what to eat every day, we can only make suggestions as to what we think would be a healthy and balanced diet. Complete seem to be on the right track, I'll expand on what he said and allow you to make changes:
For breakfast choose one of the following:
1. Low-fat yogurt and granola
2. Low-fat, low sugar cereal (Special K, Kashi, Wheaties, Cherios) with low fat milk and banana
3. Hard boiled eggs and dry wheat toast
4. Oatmeal
5. Low fat blueberry muffin
For lunch
1. Turkey sandwich on wheat
2. Salad with light or fat free dressing
3. Grilled chicken burrito or wrap
4. Low fat soup
5. Pad Thai or red curry noodles (QuickMeals : A Taste of Thai)
For Dinner
1. Grilled salmon with mixed vegetables and brown rice
2. Grilled chicken breast with vegetables
3. Grilled pork chop with mashed potatoes and peas
4. 4oz. steak triple trimmed with baked potato
5. Grilled Tilapia or halibut or trout with black beans and brown rice
This is alot tougher than I thought it would be. Since I do not know you or what you like, or what your skills are in the kitchen, I just made up a list you can choose from each day. I know there are healthier food and diets out there, but I like to keep it real so it is easier to stay on the diet. basically you see a pattern of grilled (NOT FRIED) for the meat, fish, chicken you can substitue if you like something else, just make sure the food you eat is prepared in a healthy manner. This is not a low-carb siet by any means. That works for some people and not for others - you need to see what works for you. The walking you are doing is great, keep it up with your TKD training and eat some of the above listed meals and you should see a loss in a few weeks, if not, then you may need to go a different route.
Hope this helps out. This is all the knowledge I can offer as I am not a doctor nor do I know much about nutrition. This is just me trying to help out another martial artist. If anyone sees any gross mistakes, please speak up and help out. Thanks.
Forgot to mention - drink water as much as you can stand with your meals. Some juices and low fat milk are fine with breakfast, but don't over do it. I think coffee and tea are okay, but no cream.

BUT... this is an important point. You MUST take control of your own diet and exercise program. You WILL be more successful with a program that you have made custom for you than with some pre-made diet. You CANNOT be successful if you take no responsibility for yourself and if you do not continue to learn about health and nutrition and adapt your diet according to what you learn.
Quoted because you are asking the exact same question that we already answered. If you read these two posts again, you will see that the only thing we didn't do is format it for you.
thank you all i wish you could put in a menu form so i can hang it on the ice box
like on monday for brekfast eat__? lunch eat__? dinner eat__? snack eat__? and drinks do it for a wek for ttuesday awedensaday and so i on so on tuesday i can look at it and know what to eat i hate picking for a list
please do not reply with the same replys as above i asking a different request thanks a million you all from matt blake
Matt, if you are really serious about his, you can do this with the information already provided. Asking someone else to do the formatting the menu for shows you are too lazy to do your own work and you want someone else to do it. For someone else to to do that for you is not helping you.

i not lazy i will lay off and try to do it myself but help dose help me from matt blake

Matt my wife belongs to ediets.com i think it is like ten bucks a month, they give you an eating plan based on the info you put in. To lose weight you have to increase your metabolism. Refer to suggestions that people have given you in other threads.
