| I need some advice or any help.I am trying to shed a few pounds, mainly around my midsection area. I have started going to the gym since Saturday. ( twice in one day, one hour each session in the morning and evening.) I do about 30 minutes cardio, mixing it up with power walk, and jogging. Then I lift weights on the machines for another 30 mins (10 lbs. ea. except for the ab workouts i increase it to 50 lbs.)My diet consists of, and only on a daily basisSpecial K cereal with skim milkSpecial K cereal bars (one a day)Light Yogurt Whole grain wheat bread (2 slices, sometimes 3)Meat; chicken, shrimp, eggs.Leafy veggies such as spinich, lettuce (usually have this for dinner with chicken, no salad dressing.)Broccoli, carrots, coliflower, somtimes pototoe (small portion)Plenty of water (usually go through 3 bottles, sometimes 4.)Oranges, bananas.I feel better about myself, but i dont feel like i am seeing results. I stand at 5'5 weigh approx 130 lbs. Any ideas? |

| it sounds like a wonderful fitness plan! 130 lbs is a good weight for someone who's 5'5. perhaps a good amount of that weight it muscle, for muscle weighs more than fat. you should be happy with your weight.. but from what i've heard, the best way to tone/lose your tummy is to jog, then do situps. jogging will lose the fat, & situps/crunches will tone the stomach so it won't look flabby. good luck! |

| It'll take about two weeks to start seeing noticeable results. Be patient and fight the urge to look in the mirror or weigh yourself every day (try once a week instead). Keep it up, you're on the right path! |
