Hi,
1. Add fresh vegetables to your diet (don't substitute, add):
*Anything in season which you might like (most easily tolerate?)
*Experiment around, and try not to add any thick, animal fat-type dressings).
2. Ease off (don't eliminate altogether):
*Fast food (McTaco Jr.'s)
*Preprocessed foods
*Anything with animal fats (i.e., cheese, ice cream -sorry-, etc.).
*Sugary stuff (i.e, soda pop, cake, ice cream -sorry again-, etc.).
3. Drink more water.
4. Exercise:
*Aerobic (i.e, jogging, walking with a light backpack, skipping rope, climbing stairs, bicycling, swimming, jumping kickouts, you get the idea) exercise
**Not more than 4 times per week/not more than 40 minutes per day.
5. Get enough rest:
*Between workouts
*At least 8 hrs. of sleep per evening
*Overtraining sucks:
(i.e., persistent runny nose, sore throat, dull/stiff joints, irritability, rundown feeling, etc.).
6. As a female, remember that once your bodyfat percentage dips below 20%, you'll stop getting periods.
*Your body will start to experience the menopausal symptoms of osteoporosis if you don't allow yourself to have periods for a couple of months (really, do the research ...).
Good luck, I hope this helps.
