Guys I need tips on diet plan.
Im 21 years old student. Living in a room without kitchen in the house. So cannot cook my own meals nor I have refrigerator in the house. ( cannot keep yogurt/vege/fruits)
175 cm , 78 kg (planning to reduce to 63 kg). Running 5km 4-5 times a week.
I am thinking about having banana before my morning run.
I am clueless about lunch since you know those unis canteen barely serve healthy food.
Dinner. Sometimes I skip since I am so lazy to go out to buy food or I just eat biscuit. 2-3 pieces. After I read this thread, I will start with strength and HIIT training. Thank you.

I don't recommend starving yourself and eating less. Workout more intensely and build those muscles. Remember portion control and cut down the oily and salty stuff.

I've been doing 4x HIIT & other 3 days light workout.
(I feel my skin tighten & look refreshed too)

surprisingly, I lose 4kg in a week.

it was a mere experience.

I ate 1 apple, 1 sweet potato, protein shake for a week. laugh.gif

Once your metabolism has adapted to that amount, you'll soon realize that you'd need to eat 0cals in order to lose more lel. Honestly, I see no point in such restriction. You convince yourself that you feel good, but in reality, your body is craving for the nutrition that it needs.

Eat more. Strength training.

What did I do wrong? Or is there anything I could improve? Because I got sick for a whole week, down on a fever and it seems like I got myself a horrible case of gastric? Should I fix something? I do occasionally feel sluggish.
Please review. Thanks!

Go to myfitnesspal, weigh the food that you eat/ read the nutritional label (even the peanut butter and the nuts), and track the calories.

Then go to this site: https://www.iifym.com/tdee-calculator/ and calculate your TDEE. If the calories you consume is more or less the calories you burn (TDEE), then you will not lose nor gain weight. Try tracking for a week so you have an idea how many calories you consume every day. Foods like peanut butter, banana, yoghurt and nuts are calorie-dense even in small amounts, therefore it really helps to track them a bit.

When it comes to exercising, I do recommend trying out bodyweight workouts. Building muscle is a great way to burn fat.

I have no information of your height or weight whatsoever, but that is plenty of food for a female.

Go on to myfitnesspal, weigh your food and track your calories. Chances are you're eating at maintenance or very little calorie deficit.

Then, calculate your tdee https://www.iifym.com/tdee-calculator/. Judging by your meal plan, I think you're eating at around 1800-2000 calories.
