800 Calorie Menu

Some people execute the method of “Fasting” to lose weight. This procedure is a voluntary act of abstinence from eating specific types of food or drinks for a certain period of time. It does not only deprive your body from gaining nutrients, it also prevents you from getting the daily calories that your body needs to be able to function. This act is extremely dangerous, that is why StreamlineInfo has provided you an example of an 800-calorie menu plan for a whole day.

Breakfast:    1 small banana (6" to 6-7/8" long)           = (approximately) 90 calories
                                            ¼ cup of Oatmeal (dry)            = 70 calories
                             ½ cup of Almond Milk (unsweetened)      = 15 calories
                                                                 TOTAL              = 175 calories       

The combination of oatmeal (a form of complex carbohydrates) and almond milk (protein, calcium, potassium and magnesium) will provide you with enough energy to feel full and satisfied. Adding a banana to your oatmeal will sweeten it enough to leave the option of adding sugar unnecessary.

1st Snack:    13 pieces of peanuts (dry, unsalted)          = 80 calories
                                                       ½ cup of grapes              = 25 calories
                                                                TOTAL                 = 105 calories

Peanuts (protein and fiber) and grapes is a great source to treat your sweet tooth without packing up too much calories because of its high water content.

Lunch:         1 roll of whole Wheat Flatbread            = 100 calories
                                            ¼ medium tomato (sliced)         = 9 calories
                                       1 slice of turkey breast (50 g)        = 55 calories
                                                  ¼ lettuce (shredded)           = 2 calories
                                                                 TOTAL              = 166 calories

This lunch is a great combination of the three main sections of the food pyramid. You don’t only acquire nutritional benefits from each ingredient, you also get to taste a delicious and filling meal minus the guilt.

2nd Snack:     ¾ cup of nonfat vanilla yogurt            = 100 calories
                                    ½ cup of frozen blueberries              = 35 calories
                                                                 TOTAL             = 135 calories

The yogurt should have a sufficient amount of calcium to be accumulated to your daily value. Blueberries are antioxidants and they contains a high amount of fiber.

Dinner:         ½ cup of brown rice (cooked)                 = (approximately) 100 calories
                               100 g Grilled Tilapia (raw)                    = 94 calories
                               1 cup of cut green beans                       = 25
                                                         TOTAL                     = 219

Brown rice is another form of complex carbohydrates, Tilapia fish is bountiful of many known health benefits and minerals such as Vitamin B12, phosphorus, potassium; the fat content is low and it is rich in high-quality protein, and a cup of green beans is a rich source of dietary fiber and are low in calories. This dinner should provide you enough energy that will let your body suffice a long period of time without food. Great meal to end the day!
