What Can I Add To My Diet For Variation But Still Remain Healthy For Weight Loss/Body Fat Reduction?
I’m currently 5 foot 10 and weigh 11 stone, 50, my body fat % according to my salter scales is 16% (i was previously 12 stone)
ideally i’d like to get down to 10 stone 50/ with body fat of around 10% where im more likely to see my 6 pack coming through
I use the treadmill once a day for 30 minutes, varying inclines
My current diet is two slices of brown bread, no butter with two slices of ham with either a cup of tea/orange juice.
i’ve been looking at the eat well plate and i’d like to vary my diet

I think you need to lay low on the bread and potato thing and pick up some more fruits and vegetables.

John, John, John, if you continue as you are doing you are doomed to failure and poor health. IF by some miracle, you did stick with it and lose weight, what kind of new lifestyle have you created for yourself??
If you truly want to lose weight and keep it off EAT all the fresh veggies/fruit, beans, whole grains you could possibly want. Pig out!! Throw in a few nuts and seeds too.
Your body is starving for nutrients and going to keep yelling that it is "hungry, hungry, hungry" until you actually give it the carbs, proteins, fats, vitamins, minerals, fibers it craves to run smoothly and efficiently. Your body is a smart machine and knows what it needs, BUT it only knows how to ask for it in one way – "hungry".
Try what I suggest for one month. See if you don’t feel and look better than you have in YEARS!! Food cravings will stop, food obsessions will stop, food fears will stop. You will gain true health. You will be able to live this way indefinitely.
Go ahead, what have you got to LOSE??
P.S. Forget all the diet pills, potions, and lotions – the only thing they will make lighter is your wallet.

I really suggest that you look into the "Abs" diet. The concept pretty much centres around having six small equally spaced meals a day with a little bit of protein every time (low and non-fat dairy, nuts, lean meats, etc). A boiled egg in the morning is ok (although just the white would be better) and instead of brown bread try whole grain bread including the germ. Heinz beans, although protein, are loaded with additives….so no to that.
For exercise…while using the treadmill is great, it will not give you the abs and tone you are looking for. I would do cardio for a min of 40 minutes 3-4 times a weeks (spaced). But you really need to get into strength training, which means weights and some serious "crunch" routines.
If you follow this diet plan with the right training (and only if you are doing both), you can consider taking CLA which will help with the muscle toning.
Good luck!

This is what I usually advise my clients to do and it worked for a woman in which I was taking care of and she was obese, immobilized and 72 yrs old. A double whammie in which a person could gain weight – not walking around and slower metablolism.
I stayed with her for two months and she lost around her waist considerably and she was just lying in bed.
In the morning, she like eggs, sausage (smoked; the real stuff) juice and toast.
I ensured that the eggs were boiled the majority of the time without the yolk. Since she was also hypertensive and on four BP meds, I boiled the sausage in either lemon juice or vinegar (white distilled) for about 15 minutes with the eggs. That way, the salt from the sausage sort of seasoned the eggs naturally. I used a light juice which is reduced in sugar or either dilute regular, sugary juice with half being water (really not bad; that’s all light juice is). She usually like toast but we used sugar-free jam.
For other times, such as lunch and dinner – we did this routine and it worked. Only one starch, a protein and a veggie (green is the best). So you wouldn’t want to do a baked potato and beans — starch, starch,starch unless you are vegan. We also did lighter desserts such as lite canned, frozen or fresh ones (which is better and frozen being second best) and lite cool whip.
Brown bread is good (whole wheat; flax seed; multigrain, etc) and also again a boiled egg. If you are watching your cholesterol, don’t eat the yolk. It’s okay occasionally, like maybe once a week to treat yourself to a fried one. However, that’s up to you.
Don’t stay on that one restricted diet because you will get bored and start to make up for lost time. If you desire something badly, tell yourself just every once in a while. Avoid a lot of cereals because they are chalked with a lot of sugar. If you eat cereal, grits, rice, pasta or stuffing, you don’t need bread because that’s double starching which can get you into adding pounds.
Lay off the bread, starches and sugar. Starches do break down into sugars so think about it.
So each meal should consist of — 1 protein
1 starch
1 or more veggies (espec. green)
1 dessert – preferably fruit
Also, watch your portion sizes. Usually, 1 c or a 1/2 of c is a portion.
If you are going to up a portion, let it be the good stuff.
Cook with some salt but don’t add extra at the table.
Drink water (at least 8 glasses) and if don’t drink gallons of it per day because it can throw your electrolytes off balance. Also, drink it cold because in doing so it boosts your metabolism. The body has to re-adjust it’s thermostat to rewarm the body.
Eat several small meals in order to also increase your metabolism. The body will constantly be busy trying to break it down as opposed to just being idle.

Hey, It sounds like you have a fair amount of carbs in the diet. You might want to think about cutting back their a little bit. You also lack much in the way of lean meat.
