no only carbs, fats, and proteins.

carbs provide 4 calories per gram,

fats 9 per gram, and

proteins 4 per gram.

carbs are the first energy source for the body, then the fats/lipids. Never reduce carbs and fats in your diet to zero or very low. proteins provide energy, but also perform body tasks. once gone they wont come back.

Fats are important. They are healthy, but also some are bad. Unsaturated fats are healthy and provide the body with sufficent energy. Saturated fats are bad, they are alike, but have different structures of components.

trans fats: are unsaterated fats turned into saterated fats through hydrogenation. (adding hydrogen atoms to the fatty acid chain.)

Hopefully this helped, ask proffesionals for a diet plan and if possible, an excersise plan should be used too, such as a martial art, or even running.
