How bad is chinese food if you’re dieting?

I like to eat chinese food. I usually eat sauteed shrimp and broccoli with white rice. Brown rice seems to have more minerals but it has more calories. Is this bad to eat if I’m dieting?

Tired of fad diets. will this work?

Wednesday, November 18th, 2009

ok, i’m tired of doing fad diets. I have lost so much muscle and very little fat as a result. So i’ve decided to spend my summer working out and getting in shape. i’m currently 154 pounds and 5′3′ i do have a quite a bit of muscle. i want to weigh 124 which means i need to lose about 30 pounds. i want to get in shape before school starts. which is in 2.5 months.

i’ve decided to eat 6 small meals.
No soda
candy and sweets at a minimum.
avoid junk food as much as possible
eat mostly fruits, vegetables, lean meats
eat healthier carbs (ie brown rice instead of white.)

I also plan on working out for an hour and a half each day. for 6 days a week.
I will do tae bo 4 days. jog the 5th day and lift weights the 6th day.
is it possible to lose 30 pounds by September or at least 20 pounds?

i will also drink A LOT of water.
is it possible? and if not, what else can i do?

Hi, I have decided to eat the following on a weight loss diet over the next few weeks. I am a vegan by the way. What do you think about this?

3/4 cup oats with 250ml soy milk= 368 calories
Juice 1/2 lemon in water= 6 calories
Medium apple = 76 calories
250g brown-rice = 472 calories
medium apple = 76 calories
250g brown-rice = 472 calories
125g punnet blueberries = 71 calories

Total = 1541 calories

Do you have any other vegan meal plans for about 1400 – 1600 calories? I also don’t eat wheat. I am 5′5.5” and weigh 160 lbs. Thanks for your help.
