How to Create and Maintain a Healthy Diet

PDF download Download Article
  1. To hit your 1700 calorie goal, make sure you’re getting between 400 and 500 calories at breakfast, lunch, and dinner. You can supplement lower-calorie meals with 2 to 3 tasty, protein-rich snacks each day, like nuts, yogurt, and cottage cheese, says exercise and wellness specialist Souad Gharib.
    • Personal trainer Julian Arana, M.S.eD., NCSF-CPT, highly recommends weighing and measuring everything you eat with a food scale to ensure getting enough calories and hitting your goals.
    • Guerra suggests eating breakfast 1.5 to 2 hours after you wake up, and then eating meals every 3 or 4 hours, with snacks in between, to help prevent any sugar imbalances or dips that can make you feel jittery or extremely hungry.
  2. 2
    Ensure you’re getting enough protein, fat, and carbs in your diet. Gharib says to make sure your meals are balanced with all the necessary nutrients, like protein, healthy fats, and complex carbs. In general, the average adult should be getting:
    • Protein : 0.8 grams of protein per kg of body weight (0.36 grams per lb). [46]
    • Healthy fats : Around 40 to 70 grams. [47]
    • Carbs : Around 100 to 200 grams. [48]
    • Fiber : Around 14 to 28 grams. [49]
    • For a simple, balanced meal, Guerra suggests eating “a healthy fat, such as avocado, a protein, such as an animal protein or a vegetable protein,” and “some vegetables.”
    • Protein, carbs, fats, and fiber aren’t just healthy, but they keep you satiated and full, says Guerra. They can help stave off hunger and sugar cravings, especially if you’re trying to lose some weight .
  3. 3
    Eat healthy sources of protein, fat, and carbs. For instance, Gharib recommends eating lean proteins that are low in saturated fats, like chicken, turkey, fish, tofu, and beans. Healthy sources of fat include avocados, olive oil, nuts (almonds, cashews), and seeds. There are lots of healthy complex carbs to choose from, like brown rice, quinoa, lentils, potatoes, and all fruits and veggies.
    • Good, healthy sources of fiber include fruits (berries, apples, bananas), veggies (peas, broccoli, Brussels sprouts), lentils, and beans. [50]
  4. 4
    Track the calories you’re consuming with a tracking app. To ensure you’re hitting your 1700-calorie goal, personal trainer John Diaz suggests using a food-tracking app to log everything that you eat . As a plus, most apps track your protein, fat, carb, and fiber consumption so you can check if you’re getting enough nutrients, too.
    • Personal trainer Laila Ajani says her favorite food tracking app to use is MyFitnessPal . However, there are plenty of other apps out there—use the one that fits your lifestyle the best.
  5. 5
    Plan the meals you want to make ahead of time. Before you head to the store for the week, write down all the meals you want to make and the ingredients you need. Having a set grocery list can keep you from making unhealthy choices and impulse buys so you “don’t end up snacking on the wrong things,” says Gharib.
    • Having your meals planned for the week also makes it easier to get cooking when it’s time to make breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
    • Aim to cook at home more than you go out to eat, too. According to registered dietitian Jalpa Sheth, cooking at home is a lot healthier because you can “control the ingredients, the things that go in, as well as the portions and the way [the meal is] cooked.”
  6. 6
    Limit your intake of sugar, saturated fats, and processed foods. While it’s okay to have a treat and indulge once in a while, Sheth agrees that it’s generally good to cut back on sugars and unhealthy fats in your diet. For instance, try to keep your intake of soda, candy, ice cream, and fried foods to a minimum. [51]
    • If you have a sweet tooth, Guerra suggests replacing sugar with medjool dates wherever you can, like in smoothies or yogurt. She says they’re naturally sweet while rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals.
  7. 7
    Get enough cardio and weight-training exercise. Eating a balanced diet is just 1 component of being healthy—make sure you’re exercising each week, too! Aim to get about 150 minutes of moderate cardio exercise each week (about 20 minutes per day), like walking, biking, or swimming. [52] Then, do weighted exercises to train all your major muscle groups at least twice per week. This includes your back, arms, legs, abs, and shoulders. [53]
    • If you’re also trying to lose weight, exercising is a great way to lose excess fat and help you burn more calories. [54]
  8. 8
    Drink 12 to 15 cups (2.7-3.7 l) of water each day. Ensure you’re drinking plenty of water every day to stay healthy and hydrated, too. On average, women need about 12 cups (2.7 l) of water each day, while men need about 15 cups (3.7 l). [55]
    • If you have a hard time remembering to drink water , registered dietitian Lisa Jubilee suggests setting a reminder on your phone to drink an 8 to 16 oz (236-473 ml) glass of water with each meal.
    • If you drink coffee, Jubilee also recommends starting your morning with a glass of water before you caffeinate.
    • A quick way to tell if you’re drinking enough water is to check the color of your urine, says Jubilee. If it's a dark yellow or orange color, that's a sign you're not hydrating enough. Ideally, your urine should be light yellow or colorless.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. 1
    Can you lose weight eating 1700 calories a day? Yes, you can lose weight while eating 1700 calories per day, especially if your baseline caloric needs to maintain your weight are greater than 1700. It’s generally recommended that you eat 500 fewer calories than your maintenance needs to lose 1 lb of fat each week. [56]
    • For instance, if your baseline caloric needs are 2200 calories per day, going down to eating 1700 calories per day can be an effective way to safely lose weight.
    • If you’re trying to lose weight, use an online calorie calculator to find out how many calories you need to eat to maintain your weight and to lose weight.
  2. 2
    How much protein do I need if I’m eating 1700 calories per day? The best way to calculate how much protein you need to eat per day is to multiply your weight in kilograms by 0.8 (or weight in pounds by 0.36). [57] In general, about 10 to 35% of your daily calories should come from protein. So, if you’re maintaining a 1700-calorie diet, consume 42 to 148 grams of protein. [58]
    • For example, if you weigh 180 lbs or 82 kg, you should be eating about 65 grams of protein.
  3. 3
    Is 1700 calories enough for me to eat each day? Whether 1700 calories is enough for you to eat per day depends on your age, sex, activity level, and weight loss or weight gain goals. Use an online calorie calculator to determine how many calories you need to be eating per day. [59]
