Your diet is horrible. Horrible. You need to eat more grains, rice, meats, a BALANCED diet. See, right now all your diet is doing for you is slowing down your metabolism to a crawl, hence you are not losing weight nor are you toning your body. You need to eat more vegetables, fruits, proteins to get your body revved up. What you eat right now is starving your body, even if you do not know that right now. And since you are not doing any strength training that builds muscle, your poor diet is eating up any muscle left on your body, instead of using your fat. Why? Because your body uses muscle for strength, and once those muscles become inactive, your body takes nutrition from the energy rich muscles, NOT your fat. Muscles weigh more than fat, so when you start strength training, you may gain a little more. But it is the UP in intensity of strenght training that helps your body through the plateau. Then, once you have gained a lot of muscle, your metabolism goes faster a lot more during the day, thus using your nutrition from a proper diet as fuel, which activates your muscles more, then eats up the fat on your body. And dude, just research on google on a strength training routine...they can even be done on your own home with an exercise mat, your own body, and some weights that you are comfortable with.
Finally, lifting weights and strength training is HELPFUL to your body. Ever see someone lose a bunch of weight and they are all flab and skin? With strength training, you lose weight and the result is not flab, but muscle and a toned sleek body. Stop being lazy and do a full work out, cardio plus strength.
