If Your On A 1200 Calorie Diet Can You Still Eat Sweet?

like if you keep your total calorie intake lower than 1200?
ex: breakfast: cake = 200
snack: carrots = 35
lunch: sandwich + brownie + pop = 560
snack: yogurt = 100
dinner: meat + veggies + pop = 320
as an example…could someone do that and still lose weight?

1200 calories should include:
2 servings lean protein
3 servings whole grain bread, cereal, rice, pasta
2 servings low fat dairy
3 servings veggies
2 servings fruit.
Your diet is short on:
grains
dairy
veggies and
fruit
Soda pop is not good for you, diet or otherwise. Sweet has 120 cal per SERVING [ 2 per bottle ], and diet still affects bone density.
Good luck finding a 200 calorie cake or brownie.
You MIGHT lose weight, but only temporarily, unless you curtail the sweet toooth.
Try having only 50 – 100 [ few fork or spponfuls ]calories of a sweet after dinner; IF no cheating all day.

Of course you can still eat sweets! However, try to go for more natural sweets with less sugar. I see that you have no fruits in your meal plan. Fruits are excellent forms of nutrients and their sugar component is natural. And STOP DRINKING SODA!!!! It’s horrible for you! It rots your teeth and has tons of sugar in it! Even if it says sugar-free, it’s not. Sweeteners like Splenda don’t count as sugar, but they are. And try to have a more fibrous breakfast. Cake is generally not good for you, and starting your day off with it is not a good indicator of the rest of your day. Oatmeal is great, especially with fresh/dried fruits. Hope that helps!

Anytime the topic of discussion in my blogs, articles or newsletters has turned to my own personal grocery shopping list, there has always been a spike in interest.

Negative Calorie Foods

The phrase, "negative calorie food", as highlighted in negative calorie diet programs and books, usually refers to foods that allegedly require more energy to digest than they contain. Since the process of digestion requires the use of calories for energy, sometimes the net amount of metabolizable energy available from a food is less than the gross number of calories contained in the food.
