I walk/fast walk 6.40 miles a day. I do one hour in the morning and one hour at night, so 3.20 miles each hour. I also do 500 crunches after each time i do the treadmill. So 1000 crunches a day also. And i watch what i eat. I don't necessarily eat really healthy, but im careful with how much i eat. How much do you guys think i should lose a week? I'd really like to lose at least 20-25 pounds by late December. Do you think its possible? If not, please let me know what other exercises i could do. Thank you I actually have no athletic background haha and i don't come from an athletic family at all. I honestly don't think im one of those "naturally big boned" people. I was skinny until maybe i was 12 years old (im 16 now) Im 5'1'' or 5'2'' and easily over 150-155 pounds. I don't like to weigh myself so i don't know for sure. All i think about is my weight, every second of every day. I've been homeschooled for a year now, i rarely leave the house because im not comfortable with myself. It's not healthy at all. I really want to go back to school in late January, but i'd like to be...not fat.I don't think that the workout im doing is that "rigorous", it's not too hard for me at all. It's just the motivation that keeps me from sticking to it. :/ |

| You want to lose 20-25 pounds in roughly four to five weeks. That is around five to six pounds a week. I was told it was not safe to lose more then two to three pounds a week but if you stick to your workout, I'm sure you'll reach your goal. (This is a rigorous workout... you must have some athletic background to be able to do this.)A tip I want to give you is to set small goals like five to ten pounds at a time. I find this more effective because when you are able to reach each goal, you feel more fulfilled and accomplished which motivates you to work harder at the overall picture. Hope these words help in your struggle against weight. |
