Two weeks is an incredibly small window. The only way to truly lose weight is to take in less calories than you burn off. High fat/low carb is actually healthier in small doses.
One day she's 159.7 and the next she's back up into the 160s.
The real problem is that peanut butter, butter, and cheese consist of nearly 1/4 or of her calories. (well I'm just guessing that's why people are targeting it)
Yeah thats what I thought at first too, I was like well this is a shitty article why even post it lol.
Obviously. Tell that to everyone else targeting her diet. I am just saying that's why I think everyone else is doing it. Speculation really.Nothing wrong with fat dude. You have no idea what you are talking about
Wouldn't throwing some rice and beans into work well too? We all know peanut butter is a poor but delicious source of protein.The problem is that I think they're talking about those because of some outdated idea of fat being bad.
If she's a vegetarian, she has to get some protein (though neglible in those foods) from somewhere. If I were the OP I'd have her introduce some whey protein post Insanity workout.
I'm confused as to why you're so set on trying to convince her to eat meat if she's trying to stay with a vegetarian diet. If anything, by her adopting a more vegan lifestyle and replacing a lot of those fattier foods with vegetables (which she's eating almost none of), more fruit, beans, and whole grains (such as brown rice, quinoa, etc.) will result in weight loss. The avocado isn't a bad form of fat, but she could probably do without the butter, cheese in the eggs, and replacing the eggs with egg whites.
Yeah. Again, I really appreciate the info but some of you are misinformed. Check out weight loss gaf for more info but nothing is wrong with fat. Her diet is low carb, and her carbs are complex. Every cell in your body usse fat as energy. Fat being bad is a straight up myth. And only certain vegetable and fruits are even good for you. What i'm talking from this thread:
--Eat what she's eating
--Drink more water (she doesn't get enough_
--Get a tape measure
--Continue with insanity and muscle weighs more than fat
the one true answer is obviously that having more sex is a great way to lose weight.Some of you guys really have no idea what you are talking about.

Truth. 3 times a day (if you can muster it) with her on top/doing most of the work.the one true answer is obviously that having more sex is a great way to lose weight.
Lock her in room, feed her only celery, continue for 2 mounts.
I tell her that she needs to eat more and more frequently throughout the day.

and yea, just ignore the anti-fat advice. sounds like she's eating well. plateaus are a natural part of weight loss
Almost everything you say in this post is incorrect. I mean, the beans are good for her. Avocados are really good. Eating only egg whites is a waste and you're losing most of the nutrients. Veggies are good, types of fruit are good, whole grains should be limited.

Is she eating salt? I see a lot of foods on there that someone would put salt on.
Eggs, avocado, potato.
Peanut Butter has sodium too.
Cutting sodium out completely could help her see some results.
Salt retains water, but yeah different people use salt differently....unless you or your family have documented issues with blood pressure salt isn't a big deal unless you are drinking salt water every meal.
i envy fat people
atleast you can get in decent shape if you try hard enough
im pretty skinny and i CANT gain weight
some sort of fast metabolism or something

ugh

Maybe you should hide the scales and only pull them out every 4 weeks.
The trick is not to eat less food, it is to Eat MORE healthy food.
Instead of eating sandwiches, cheese slices, peanut butter, protein powder, etc.
EAT VEGETABLES AND FRUITS. TONS OF THEM. Drink green smoothies. Stop eating grains altogether.

Too much fat is still bad for you no matter what. Everything in moderation is best, and from what you've posted she is eating way too much fat.
Muscle does not weigh more than fat. A pound of muscle is equal to a pound of fat.
As others have mentioned, go by what she looks like as opposed to what the scale says. PB is fine as is the other fats you have listed.
Thingonthefloor said:You're agreeing with me that more vegetables and a more varied selection of fruit is good, that beans and avocados are good. That whole grains should be limited (but not ignored). And I don't really have an opinion on the eggs as I don't eat them either way, I was just suggesting that cutting that yolks may result in weight loss.
But why would you still attempt to write off everything by saying that almost everything I've said is incorrect? Hyperbole, possibly, but I really don't think my advice was that piss-poor. Just trying to help like everyone else.

You're eating tons of fat and tons of carbs, getting very little nutrition, but you probably aren't eating enough calories. Count calories and make them higher, if you don't want to have a heart attack in 5 years then make them healthy too.i envy fat people

try eating actual food bro.
As for the OP theres alot of carbs in that diet. More meals with more protein and less carbs.
2 weeks is too short.
6 weeks for noticeable loss.
She eats salads every now and then but any real nutrition that a veggie can provide she gets from a multivitamin.
