Thank you for visiting our Cookie Diet website today. We hope you join the program and start losing weight.

Well I'm 19, and I'll be 20 in a few months. I'm 5'7 and I want to get to a weight of 160. So I have to lose about 50lbs. I already previously asked a question on what to do in terms of exercise and things like that, so basically I need some diet tips. But I'm just super picky, can someone help please.

1. I like fruits (Bananas are my favorite), but I don't like Veggies (only corn)

2. I like Chicken & Red Meat, but I don't like any sort of pork.
I've grown up my whole life basically eating Pasta & Rice w/ Meat. That's what I've grown to love. Can I still eat that?

3. I know I got to give up my sweets and sodas and drink more water, but is Fruit Punch and Milk good for you as well?
"Smart Choice" lunches, I love them (and Lean Crusine), and those good ideas to eat? Better for lunch or dinner?

4. What is a great breakfast meal to have?

5. (What about the Low-Carb ice cream and cookies, are those okay to have as sweets?)

Any other ideas & suggestions, PLEASE TELL ME!

And do you have some kind of plan to keep from gaining weight?
And on New Years.

I know a girl who has been dieting since she was 13 and still is (she's probably around 15 now). What are the chances of her getting an eating disorder? I've heard that like 86% of girls who diet at that age end up with one, is that true? What statistics do you have/know? I really would like to warn her parents, especially since they see nothing wrong with her behavior. I'm not sure if she's throwing up in a bathroom or anything like that, but she definately is watching what she is eating, eating foods marked "low carb", keeping track of how many pounds she has lost, and exercises for the benefit of weight loss. Also looks like she could use a vitamin if you know what I mean..
Thanks to all who help.

Please don't write me a long ass message about how weight loss pills don't work. I simply want to hear other peoples experiences. if it did work for you please let me know the info, the name of the pill, how much weight you lost, ect

From a strictly nutritional stand point, a diet is simply “the sum of food consumed by a person or other organism.”

No sacrifice stated or implied.

Every organism alive is on a DIET…has been since it’s life began…and will be till it’s life ends.

A human new-born thrives on a diet of milk alone–natural or “formulated”. Soon enough that diet expands to include strained thises and thats; and before long the transition to solid food. Somehow these youngsters know when they reached a healthy limit and they turn instantly to some other diversion.

Never bored, and living in a relatively stress free world, they simply eat to live rather than “living to eat”.

Living to eat comes later, and is a learned rather than instinctual response to hunger.

Exposure to the all pervasive world of advertising comes along at just about the same time as the transition to solid food. Now instead of being satisfied by the healthful and nutritious offerings from a loving parent, they are tempted and re-tempted by a constant barrage of sugary delights.

Prove it to yourself. Watch an hour or so of what is currently being offered as and see for yourself. A few dozen empty calorie messages later, you will probably find yourself very “hungry”; and it will be a totally misguided hunger that has nothing to do with “eating to live”.

And thus begins the “eating in response to” experience. Some of us eat “in response” to boredom; for many it is stress; for some it comes with frustration. For a lot of us it is simply a response to suggestion–TV, and radio, magazine ads, billboard blasts,–you name it. It often seems that the world is conspiring to cause overeating.

Just how effective that “conspiracy” can be is borne out by the fact that over half of the world’s population is overweight. Over HALF–and increasing (poor pun intended) every year. And that’s in the face of natural selection–nature’s way of “thinning the herd”. We who are overweight tend to die sooner–the ultimate “double whammy”. We pay a dear price for these extra pounds; and our kids are practically guaranteed the same fate.

Since you’ve read this far, it’s safe to assume that you’ve already been around the “dieter’s world/hell” long enough to be familiar with the buzz words: NEW MIRACLE DIET, LOSE WEIGHT FAST, THE LAST DIET YOU WILL EVER NEED, GREEN/BLACK/WHITE TEA DIET, etc.

Just when you think you’ve seen and heard it all, put things in a new perspective. Google returned 29,500,000 results for the word “diets”. That’s TWENTY NINE AND A HALF MILLION.

Can they all be effective? Sure. Because the bottom line for all of them…at least the legal ones…is simple: EAT LESS…EXERCISE MORE. Twenty nine and a half million pages condensed into four words. And you thought this was gonna be tough?

Sure, lots of those millions of pages suggest that you: EAT LESS…EXERCISE MORE and “drink this magic tea” or “eat this magic supplement” or “drink gallons of cabbage soup” or some such.

The question that so many of us fail to ask is: “What happens if I just EAT LESS…EXERCISE MORE and also save a gazillion dollars by not buying any of your magic pills, potions and soup recipes?”

We all know the answer; yet we continue searching for the “miracle” diet, routine, and/or supplement.

At the risk of short circuiting over twenty-nine million other suggestions, it’s time to accept the fact that the only “magic” is in us–programmed there since birth. We simply need to get back in touch.

For the continued purposes of this blog and accompanying web site, we’re going to expand the theme a bit:

EAT…MORE OR LESS AND EXERCISE…MORE OR LESS.

With 125 extra pounds between us, Gayle and I have finally started a realistic and achievable goal.

I'm due Sept, 21st and celebrating my birthday on Halloween and want to look my best in my costume which will be alittle revealing. I have only gained 33 lbs so far in my pregnancy and I weighed 120 lbs. before pregnant. What do you think I will be down to if I follow a strict diet and excercise plan by Halloween?

I just noticed that my container of cottage cheese says 4% milk fat! Wow, I need to buy low fat, but wonder about the taste.
And could I use low fat kind in lasagna?

Where can I get the cookies or the recipe? Can you use regular like oatmeal cookies or something? How many cookies are you supposed to consume a day?

Living a healthy lifestyle generally means eating right, participating in a moderate exercise program, limiting alcohol consumption, not smoking and maintaining a normal weight. It may sound daunting to most people who are limited by job and family commitments, time constraints or simply lack of initiative. Making sure your body is in good health does not mean you must be a slave to food and exercise. Small changes in lifestyle can have a big impact.

Eating right does not have to be a chore. Simple changes you can make while on your next visit to the grocery store can get you on the right path to eating better. Small substitutions like eating more fruit and veggies and eating less refined and processed foods over time saves calories and adds nutrients to your diet. Don’t force yourself to shelve your entire diet and start with something restrictive. Feeling deprived leads to failure. Go slow and enjoy each new item you add to your diet.

Exercise does not have to be a dirty word. If you lead a sedentary lifestyle, start slow and increase your activity level as you reach small goals you set for yourself. It may be just using the stairs at work instead of using the elevator. Over time, you might decide to walk for part of your lunch break. Eventually you may want to join a fitness center to increase your progress. Go at a pace you are comfortable with and enjoy.

If you smoke, consider a smoking cessation program. There are medications in pill, patch and gum form that can assist you in stopping. Talking to a counselor or adopting a quit-smoking buddy has been shown to help smokers quit smoking at higher rate than trying to go it alone. Side effects of smoking include rapid heartbeat, decreased circulation, and shortness of breath and more serious problems like cancer, emphysema and heart disease can eventually develop.

Drinking alcohol in moderation has actually been shown to benefit the cardiovascular system. However, consuming more than a glass or two a day can cause liver damage. The liver acts as a giant filter system of the body. When the filter is clogged, the body does not function properly. Jaundice, gallstones, blood clotting difficulties, organ failure and death can result when the liver is compromised.

Maintain a healthy weight for your body type by watching your diet and incorporating fitness into your lifestyle. You can calculate your body mass index (BMI) by dividing your body weight by the square of your height, or a much simpler method is to use one of the many BMI calculators available online.

You’ve stopped thinking about your body and what you put into it. You’re listless and you lack energy. Serious health issues may run in your family. Overwhelmed by what lies ahead? You can adopt a healthy lifestyle by adding healthier food to your diet, integrating daily exercise into your routine, stopping smoking and drink a glass of red wine with a meal. To maintain a normal weight, you must increase your level of activity and eat a balanced diet. Set your goals and remind yourself that small changes add up to big results over time.

Obesity is on the rise and it seems as if it is not slowing down. A sedentary lifestyle has led many people to pack on those extra pounds. Each pound adds pressure to the joints and heart. Over time these pounds add up and before you know it, you have tipped the scales into obesity. The problem is that many people are embarrassed to go to a gym and work out with others. There is a solution: treadmills. A treadmill is used in the comfort of your own home and you can use it anytime.
