What about dinner?
Doesn't matter if you're 'not feeling hungry', you're still lacking nutrition (essential nutrient's/ foodgroups) which are vital to consume at your'e age for proper growth/ development/ tissue's/ menstral cyces/ hormones/ etc.
You're lacking protein, you're OVERLOADING on fruit's which isnt good and your lacking hearty fats.

Almost your entire eating plan is sugar/carb intake, and not nearly enough protein or healthy, natural fat intake (all natural fats, including saturated ARE GOOD FOR YOU, and promote a lean, healthy body).

Did you know that it is higher sugar/carb diets which cause fat weight gain, and not dietary fat intake? Yep, it's almost impossible to gain fat weight from a dietary standpoint, if you are on a well-designed eating regimen that limits your sugar/carb intake to certain thresholds (and those are mostly in the form of lots of veggies and such).

Oh, and man-mutated/altered homogenized fats (mostly found in mainstream dairy and most dairy substitute products) are little better than trans/hydrogenated fats in their unhealthy long-term effects on the body. If you want dairy products like milk, yogurt and stuff, you really need to track down the organic, natural NON-HOMOGENIZED versions.



You didn't specify your weight or height, but you have surprisingly very little protein (the one boiled egg, which is very low calorie and low protein being the only item you ate that had protein). If you want your muscles to start deteriorating (which will cause weight loss, but the wrong kind of weight loss), then by all means, keep eating like this. However, you really need to eat 2 or 3 ounces of white meat chicken, turkey, or fish at least two or three times a day, not just carbs. You have not eaten very much food, so it is not surprising that you are hungry. Unfortunately, if you continue to deprive yourself of adequate calories, you will find yourself tired, and it will become increasingly difficult to maintain your diet because your hunger feelings will increase.



you're not eating nearly enough so no, not very healthy.
