eat more veggies, and dont eat when your not hungry. also, those 200 situps a day is stressing your body more than helping it so stick to 30. good luck! and just so you know, it is unhealty to lose more than 2 pounds in one week.

If you just started exercising then give it time! 75% of people give up exercise 4 months into it so as long as you keep doing what your doing the weight will come off.Just make sure you don't make yourself ill.

sorry but quit drinking tea...my dad was a huge tea drinker and then stopped drinking it and started drinking more water and lost twenty pounds (more than likly won't get the same results as him though...sorry) and then he started to drink tea again and began gaining back this weight so I would stop drinking tea...hopefully this with your other routines might help you lose the 3 pounds

do more vigorous workouts...cuz walking doesn't really do crap and 15 minutes of running only burns 100-150 cals. Run longer and that will burn more fat and calories. keep doing situps but maybe add some more resistance training because the more muscle you gain the more calories you will burn. Keep eating good foods but just don't over eat because excess food (healthy or not) will be stored as fat.

your running for 15 minutes is good however isn't doing much the first 30 minutes you run your buring your last meal from ther on out you burning pure stored energy (fat)the process of your boidy switching from last meal to stored energy is a little difficult you fell fatigued but soon you'll get your energy back

Its gonna take some more work but it can be done. Eat very small portions and drink only water. Your BMI is good, and you probably don't have much body fat if your working out as you describe above. Try to figure out how to burn more calories. Good luck.

Eat a light healthy meals. Instead of walking, try jogging for 30 minutes instead.

This much weight loss in a week is very possible, if you are dedicated and have a fast metabolism. To speed up any metabolism try drinking a cup of green tea before exercising. You will burn more calories that way. Drinking green tea a 1/2 hr before meals also reduces the amount of fat your body holds on to from the meal.Of course, fruit and veggies do wonders for giving you nutrients, energy and filling you up. If you really want to lose the weight, try this: Place six leaves of romaine lettace in a blender with two cups water. Blend until liquified. Drink. The process of blending breaks open the nutrients in the lettace and makes them more readily available, with one drink equaling 40 salads! This works as a detox to clean out your body and shed pounds. I lost three pounds after have one drink for two days!Another detox option is sipping a cup of hot water with lemon juice first thing in the morning.Your exercise program sounds complete and effective.Carry out your plan, stick to your goals and you'll go far!
