1450 Calorie Diet & Meal Plan Menu for Weight Loss

Written by Thin Thin

Free 1450 Calorie Diet

Thin Thins free 1450 Calorie Diet and Meal Plan illustrates a daily menu based on the official food group recommendations.

Rather than suffering severe hunger pains and risk going off a diet that is too low in calories - including a 1450 calorie diet plan, Thin Thin recommends a healthier approach. Simply determine your personal calorie (energy) needs based on your recommended weight.

Simply stick to a daily diet consisting of the recommended calories that can be calculated. Be sure to choose from all the food groups contained in the Food Pyramid such as outlined below in our 1450 Calorie Diet and Meal Plan.

Thin Thins 1450 Calorie Diet and Meal Plan

Note that our 1450 Calorie Diet is a mirror of our 1400 Calorie Diet Plan, except with the addition of 1 cup of rice rather than 3/4 cup of rice in our dinner menu. Enjoy water and zero calorie beverages freely.

Breakfast - 1450 Calorie Diet & Meal Plan

Egg, Bacon, Toast & Jam

1 egg (fried, scrambled, easy-over, poached)

2 slices of bacon (be sure to blot off excess oil with paper towel or napkin)

1 serving of your favorite jam or preserves (up to 60 calories)

Morning Snack - 1450 Calorie Diet & Meal Plan

Tuna Salad & Crackers + Noodles

3 ounces of white tuna packed in water (109 calories)

2 cups of shredded lettuce, any variety

zero calorie beverage, tea or water

Mix drained tuna, lettuce and onions (optional) with 1 serving of Miracle Whip Light. Add ground pepper if desired and enjoy with the crackers.

Also enjoy 3/4 cup of your favorite cooked noodles (up to 175 calories). Noodles can be prepared in advance and pack nicely for lunches on the following day. They can also be enjoyed hot or cold. Feel free to mix the cold noodles with the tuna to create a gourmet tuna noodle salad. If you must add margarine or butter, please use the zero calorie versions.

Also enjoy 10 Thompson Seedless grapes or any grape of your personal choice (about 35 calories)

Afternoon Snack - 1450 Calorie Diet & Meal Plan

Prepare frozen vegetables as directed on package, using a deep pan. Add beans and Oriental sauce. Remove when heated thoroughly. Serve over the warm, steamed rice.
