Ok so I want to lose weight, plain and simple. I’ve done the research and I know what to do so thus, I have come up with my own weight loss plan and would like some opinions on it. Here it is:
First off, I am an 18 year old male, about 5’8″ and roughly 190 lbs. I have lowered my daily calorie intake to roughly 1500 with a diet consisting mainly of salads, fruits, grilled chicken with small healthy snacks dispersed throughout the day. I would only drink water and green tea. So all in all, I would be eating every four or so hours (to keep the metabolism going).
I would also be working out every day for about an hour performing about 30 mins of eliptical aerobics and about 30 mins of a full body workout. (My goal here is to tone, not really body build.)
My only concern with my plan is the daily calorie intake. Is it too low? I figured that 1500 from food minus about 500 from working out would only give me a net of 1000, roughly. My goal is to get to 170 lbs, at least, in two months.

That is too low, try at least 1900, considering your weight. Also, drop the green tea, at least too often. Teas are diuretic and will not help with the eight glasses of water, you will need to increase your water consumption for each glass of tea you drink. Doesn’t sound like much, but that much water is very hard to drink everyday.
I think you’ll put your body in starvation mode if you drop your calories that low. Check with your doctor but at your age and weight, I would not think that going below 1800-2000 calories is healthy.
