To ask if you think it’s a lot to eat/drink a day?

At a BMI of 21 or 22 at 5 foot 7 you are not "chubby". You do have a disordered attitude to eating and body shape though.

There was one of these yesterday too, until it got deleted. Have the pro ana boards shut down again?

There is no where near enough food here!

*your family

Also coming on to tell you that you don't need to lose weight. I'm the same height as you and currently 66kg - would like to be where you are and worked out that at 63kg my BMI would be 21 which is perfect for me. When I went through a stage of being obsessed with diet and exercise and frankly miserable I went down to 55kg and was a size 6. Looking back I was wayyyyy too thin and obsessed with my weight and eating hardly anything. Honestly I'd stay right where you are and if you're family are calling you chubby they're bonkers! You must be a size 8 at your current weight and height.

Lots of sweet items on that list…can you swap some for say crudités with humous?

Ditch the rose it’s wasted calories

Is the ‘dark chocolate’ 85%+ cocoa? Anything less and you may as well have Dairy Milk

No idea about your water consumption but make sure it’s at least 2.5 litres

That doesn’t sound like a lot of food. Ditch the cereal bar and the actimel, keep your salad lunch, but have a dinner of protein like a chicken breast with loads of veggies.

I ate healthier on my own than I do now.

I think your dinner is ok as a lunch but there’s not enough food there.

I don’t think you are overweight either, are you carrying weight in one area perhaps which makes you feel ‘big’. I carry on my tum which sucks! Are you working out too? Drinking plenty of water? I don’t eat great myself so won’t suggest any meals!

I don't think that's nearly enough food? If you are living on your own, it is hard - have you tried batch cooking something and freezing small portions? Something like a chilli made with half mince and half beans, and lots of veg.

@TheMarzipanDildo a lot of UPF relative to the amount of food, which no isn't a lot.

OP that’s not enough food! There’s nothing really…. idk filling(?) on that list mate. It seems really unsustainable and borne out of issues with food, rather than a regular day-in-the-life list of someone who is healthy mentally and physically.

I don’t think there’s enough food there for it to be “a lot of UPF”

My god that's virtually nothing! I'd be ravenous!

5' 7" and under 10st?
You are not overweight.

But to be honest, at 5ft 7inches and around 63kg you are slap bang in the middle of the healthy BMI range at around 21, losing 5kg takes you towards the bottom end of healthy.

@Misthios Coming on to say exactly this, although I calculated at a BMI of around 22.Either way, OP, you are not overweight, you are a perfectly healthy weight. Why are you dieting?

Come on OP you know the drill here.

Lots of posters will pile in to tell you it's far too much, all sugar, and that we've lost sight of a healthy weight anyway.

Others will obsess on the one glass of wine - have you had a drinking problem for a long time, OP <headtilt>

More will say it is far too much UPF and carbs and unless you're just eating quinoa, you're doing it wrong.

And then you've got the not inconsiderable number of people with seriously disordered eating, who would be "stuffed for weeks" on just your mixed leaf salad, and who could eke out a single diet cereal bar for at least a fortnight.

Food threads on here are ridiculous, you'll get a better response and more sensible replies on the weight loss forum. But to be honest, at 5ft 7inches and around 63kg you are slap bang in the middle of the healthy BMI range at around 21, losing 5kg takes you towards the bottom end of healthy.

My earlier post was light-hearted. I'd concentrate on making proper meals.
Your list looks more like grazing, and there are barely any vegetables (tomatoes are fruit).

I'd concentrate on making the meals more substantial, mostly vegetables, but watching that there's enough protein and some fat.

Your weight sounds fine. Up the exercise or do toning exercises if you want to feel better about your body.

Not really much UPF

It’s all relative to your starting weight. If you weigh 2 stone, you may be over eating. If you weigh 29 stone you will lose lots of weight.

google the James Smith Academy calorie deficit calculator. It will give you a target.

big tip, unless you are training to Olympic levels you are sedentary.

when you have your calorie target meal plan properly using my fitness pal :) be honest when tracking

Not enough protein or carbs to fill you up, it would be difficult to sustain eating like this and probably insufficient to meet your nutrition needs.
I think calorie counting at least for a while is helpful in giving you a more realistic sense of what you are taking in but in general I would try adding more protein as it fills you up and prevents craving snacks etc.
I yoyo a bit but what keeps me healthy is protein rich meals for at least two of my meals in the day, not drinking most of the time, and exercising regularly - i generally don't track calories any more but can keep on top of things.

There's nothing filling so I'd be hungry but I think it could be a surprising amount of calories. Wine, nuts, honey, dressing, chocolate... all pretty calorific for not a lot a satiety.

No idea of the actual calories, but seems very lacking in food of any substance, and too much processed sugar.

Too much sugar, not enough protein or complex carbs. I do not think it’s a good diet.
