HELP!!! I wanna lose weight!

[Luckie1922]

You did not mention your water intake...I suggest 8-10 glasses a day, bottle water preferably not tap, more water if your activity increases.

Food I suggest eating 6-8 small meals a day, no grease, process foods that cost $1.00, fruits, vegetables, nuts(not honey roasted)

If you drink Starbucks, I love Lattes but know that most Grande lattes are about 190 calories, try skinny latte (tall) instead

Rest: You need at least 7-8 hours of uninterrupted sleep a night

30minutes of cardio is good, but you may want to increase to 1 hour of Cardio 3-4, days a week, light strength or heavy depending on your body type/training-rotating days

Do you know your body type? Many people begin to exercise not knowing what their bodies are

Heavy top smaller bottom:
Do: stair climber, step aerobics, moderate to heavy weights for lower body, leg
presses/squats, and stationary bike with moderate to heavy tension, jogging, running

Avoid heavy weights to the upper body, elliptical machines,

Do: Walking uphill, stair climber, squats, kickboxing

Smaller top and larger bottom: jumping rope and stationary biking at a very high speed with low tension or resistance are ideal for your lower body

Avoid stair climber, step aerobics, moderate to heavy weights for lower body, leg
presses/squats, stationary bike with moderate to heavy tension, jogging, running

Stomach: Cardio, proper diet and Pilates

I hope this help
