basically eat as much fruit (not frui juice), veg, salad and protein (red meat, chicken, turkey, eggs, dairy) as you can and keep activity up...the activity thing is probably where your getting in trouble, not so much the eating as when your young your metabolism is pretty high as your growing constantly

meal 2 - apple, tin of tuna
meal 3 - salad sandwitch / roll with some form of meat in it and a fair bit too
meal 4 - some form of protein (chicken, turkey eyc), salad, raw veg
meal 5 - probably whatever mum cooks which would probably be some meat and veg dish i woudl say

what's a melaluca active bar thing???

don't run on an empty stomach

limit soda, lollies, desserts etc but 1 - 3 each week won't kill you at your age i wouldn't say

A few other things.

Keep your Dairy Low Fat.

Don't over eat Egg Yolks. They have things like Minerals, Vitamins, Protein and Lutein in them, but they also have LDL bad Cholesterol, so if you make anything with more than one Egg in it, use one Yolk, and then when you crack the other Egg(s), Siphen off the Whites and pitch the Yolks.

You could include in your Protein sources, Soybeans and Soybean Curd, (Tofu), and things like Beans, Peas and Rice, (Complimentary Proteins).

If you eat Rice, I would say maybe 1-2 portions of White a week, as it's higher GI, than Brown, and eat mostly Brown.

You could also have with your Fruits, Veggies and Wholegrain Cereal Carbs, the Beans and Rice and Low Fat Dairy for say Carbs, (as well as for Protein), and include also Wholegrain / Wholewheat Bread if you want to.

If you're worried about Mercury risk from Tuna, you could have something like some Sliced Turkey, or Low Fat Cheese instead.

Also, you might want to check this out.

Melealuca

There are some people here giving the company bad reviews. A lot of it seems to be people, who help to sell and promote their products, but there does seem to be some peoples issues with products as well.

This doesn't mean their stuff is awful and you shouldn't take it, but if you read these replies, and feel their stuff isn't right for you after all, then stop taking it, and use something else.

Agreed, yolks are fine A13, providing you restrict them, as I said, there are good thing in them, don't due ot LDL cholesterol, don't eat too many.

I certainly didn't say what I did to stop you eating any.

I'd also be a little more positive about tha mid afternoon meal. A Vegetable is too vague, as Carbs can vary a lot depending on what Vegetable source or sources, and how many of them you eat.

No it won't man. Toast even without Butter is a very poor snack, there's virtually no Protein, and low Carb content.

Battered Fish is not good, Fish shouldn't be battered. You are probably adding unnecessary amounts of Saturated Fat ot the Meal, and counteracting any Fat reducing abilities of the Unsaturated Fat in the Fish.

Special K may yield good Carbs, but protein may well be low.

You are in all seriousness affecting muscle mass, getting potentially inadequate levels of Amino Acids,

You're also only eating 4 times a day, which means meal spaces may be a bit large in places, inducing more muscle Catabolism during waking hours, and you only should get that during sleep, not during waking hours, as far as I'm concerned, as the bodies Metabolism should not become less dependant on nutrients for fuel, and more dependant on Muscle instead.

You may have lost weight, but you may also have lost muscle weight too, potentially weakened connective tissues like Ligaments and Tendons, and affected bone density.

I'm not ripping on you, but I don't think given your diet, the person asking for help should follow yours. It's definitely not adequate enough for him or anybody including you.
