Hey guys! I am new here. I am a boy - 14 years old, 5'11'', and 160 pounds. I am pretty fat and have less than average mass/muscle for a kid my age/height/weight.

So, my question is this - with the following diet/exercise, will I be able to lose weight/gain a little muscle?

Breakfast (7:00 am):

1 cup of Honey Nut Cheerios (whole grain)
1/2 cup of 1% milk
1 glass of water
-----------------------------------------------------------------

SCHOOL:

1/2 liter of water in a bottle
no lunch period
gym (PE) every other day
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Lunch (2:00pm):

1 cup of fried vegetables
2-3 tortillas (we call them rotis)
1 cup of whole grain cereal
1 small container of fat-free strawberry-banana yogurt
2-3 glasses of water

OR

1 bowl of rice with mung beans
1 cup of whole grain cereal
2-3 glasses of water
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Workout (2:45pm):

I do bicep and tricep exercises with a 10 pound dumbell for 30 minutes (like I said, I am below avereage in strength)
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Snack (4:30pm):

1 apple/orange/peach (whatever)
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Dinner (7:30pm):

1 cup of Honey Nut Cheerios (whole grain)
1% cup of 1% milk
1 glass of water
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Sleep (11:30pm OR 9:00pm OR 10:00pm)

I keep a 1/2 liter bottle of water next to me at bedside (I get thirsty at night)

Now, I know this isn't the perfect diet but any suggestions would help!

By the way, I just started doing my workout a couple of weeks ago. My main goal is to lose weight and then gain muscle. The reason why I am doing this workout is because I cannot ride my bike because it is too cold and I cannot go to the gym (too young and no one to drive me). So, this is my only option.

Far too many carbs, not enough protein. Check the nutrition stickies for a better idea of the concepts of meal planning.

Focus on pushups, situps, bench dips, pullups (if you can do them), squats, etc. Do a search for "body weight exercises."

good luck!
