Eating 12000 calories, does it matter if you eat health or junk food?
I love sweets way too much but I have to lose up to at least 20 pounds. I want to cut down calories to 1200 and I'm active..I burn about 1000 calories by jogging and speed walking on the treadmill. Would I get the same result if I ate 1200 calories worth of sweet stuff instead of eating 1200 calories of veggies and fruits? Would my body look the same if I was to lose weight by eating fruits and vegetables?

You would not get the same results if you ate 1200 calories worth of junk food, as compared to 1200 calories of a healthy diet. There is a safe and healthy way that you can eat 300 calories a day while still getting all the nutrients and protein your body needs. It is a bread "Hunza Diet Bread" Hunza Diet Bread is a delicious, dense, chewy bread that's very nutritious and is almost impervious to spoilage. The following recipe makes a huge batch of approximately 60 (sixty) x 2 inch squares, high in protein, vitamins and minerals. Keeps weeks at room temperature, even longer in the fridge and indefinitely in the freezer. The recipe for this wonderful bread is as follows: Recipe 4 cups of water 3.5 (three & one half) to 4 pounds of natural buckwheat or millet flour 1.5 (one & one half) cups of canola oil 1.5 (one & one half) cups of natural unrefined sugar 16 ounces of honey 16 ounces of molasses 4 ounces of powdered soya milk (half cup) 1 teaspoon sea salt 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg 2 teaspoons baking powder (non aluminium) Hunza Diet Bread has a taste that is very satisfying and chewy all on its own, but you may also add if required, apricots, raisins, chopped walnuts, almonds, sliced dates to the above ingredients. Mix ingredients. Grease and lightly flour cooking pan(s). Ideally use baking trays with about 1 inch high sides. Pour batter in pan(s) half an inch thick over the base. Bake at about 300 degrees farenheit (150 C.) for 1 hour. After cooking, dry the bread in the oven for two (2) hours at a very low heat - 90 degrees farenheit (50 C). After it is cooled tip out and cut into approx 2 inch x 2 inch squares. Store it wrapped in cloth in a container. You may need to repeat the baking depending on the size of your baking pan, and oven, until all the mixture has been used. Hunza Diet Bread is made from natural buckwheat or millet flour. It is rich in phosphorous, potassium, iron, calcium, manganese and other minerals, as nothing has been destroyed in the preparation from the wheat. Thus it contains the essential nourishment of the grain. This is why you must ONLY use natural buckwheat or millet flour to make your own Hunza Diet Bread..... Good luck and good health .. bon appetite! Suggestions to lose weight with HUNZA DIET BREAD There are many ways to do it. This is another benefit. It's flexible. Here are some typical plans. Each piece of bread is thinly spread with butter for a total of approximately 100 calories. Plan A: Eat 1 piece every 5 hours of the 16 hours you're awake. That's 3 pieces which total 300 calories. This is the fastest way to lose weight I know of. It works faster than any high protein diet. Why? You have more energy and burn more calories. Second, the high fiber bread keeps your digestive system regular. Third, your body stays healthy. A healthy body means a properly functioning metabolic system. Plan B: Really gorge yourself with the bread. Two pieces every four hours for a total of 8 pieces but only 800 calories. You'll feel full all day. In fact, I doubt many people could eat this much of the bread.

your question says 12,000 calories...lol but yes it does matter if u eat junk food instead of healthy food even if u r only eating 1,200 a day. the reason is because regardless of the calories, there are a lot of unhealthy fats in junk food and sugar, which by the way, sugar = fat. when u eat sugar, it pretty much always turns directly into fat. plus, all that junk food wont give u the enrgy u need to work out and the protein u need to stay full and curb appetite as well as to build muscle.

Vegetables and fruit form the bulk of the diet with very small portions of protein and carbs. Very difficult to adhere to the strict regime the diet requires. Will experience metabolism slow down because of low calories and will lead to starvation response, which will eat away at the muscle tissue while retaining the fat. All these diets work because of a drastic cut in calories, when this happens our metabolic rate can be brought down in a matter of 36 hours by as much as 50% which means your body is now burning only half of your calories. To compound matters further, hunger kicks in after a period of inadequate eating setting you up for over eating and binging.

If you find out how long it takes you to burn 50 calories on the treadmill, and then compare it to how long it takes you to drink 50 calories of orange juice, you'll quickly realise the secret is in the diet, not the gym. What you need to do is record how long it takes for a particular meal to keep you satisfied. You're looking for the most number of hours for the least number of calories. And yes, count every meal until you start losing weight over a period of say 2 months
