I want to lose 10 lbs.
Permalink Closed

What's the best way to do this? I just started working out at my school 3 times a week. I'm also eating less.

Today I  ran for 15 minutes on the treadmill and walked on an incline at a fast pace for 20 minutes. I then switched over to the elliptical machine and did that for 10 minutes. The other days I stayed on the treadmill for 45 minutes and then did weights for 15 minutes.

Should I continue doing that or what do you recommend?

Jen used to be on here all the time, and she was awesome at this. I would say the best thing is to alternate weightlifting and cardio, every other day. And to add small bits of exercise to your day as often as possible. Track your workouts accurately (so you don't tell yourself, "I work out all the time, I deserve pizza" when you've really only been to the gym twice that week, and so you eat away all your losses). And eat moderately, but don't let yourself get hungry (also stay away from processed stuff if you can - it's amazing how much water weight that adds).

dizzy told you all the right things. another very simple way to shed a few pounds is to omit all soda, juice and alcohol from your diet. Okay, maybe its not an "easy way" but you'll be amazed at how many pounds you'll drop from that alone. (depending on home much you consume right now)

Thank you girls for the advice. I'll definitely use it.
