What Kind Of Diet Should I DO
2007-05-23 10:06:57 · update #1
the first 20-30min of cardio body burns carbs and only then starts burning fat so you should do 45min 4-6 times a week and combine it with light weight training.
find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours)
5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water
have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
have lean meat (protein) for dinner - repairs muscle
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, past etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried, oily.
ofcourse you can spoil yourself once in a while with a little treat:)

I've tried many diets and couldn't make anything work. Since having my first child, I've been carrying around an extra 30 pounds. This diet just made sense and showed me that everything I was doing before was wrong and a waste of my time.
The plan was so refreshing and so simple to follow. I did everything plan said and lost 23 pounds in the first three weeks. I'm now starting the diet again to lose 7 more pounds. This plan has changed my life.
Get started today!

Work out for more than 30 minutes. You won't start burning fat until you're walking for at least 30 minutes. Try substituting water for your usual drinks. Go for 500 - 1000 calorie cutting a day. Thats 1-2 lbs weekly. Results won't come quickly but they'll come.

Try not to eat anything startchy (Bread, crackers, noodles, rice, etc.) after lunch time. I did that - cut out startchy carbs after lunch and lost a bit of weight and did not go hungry. :=) Best of luck to you!

The mix of cardio and toning five times a week will keep metabolism humming

Just eat foods sparingly. Still eat the things you like but in proportions .
