Why Losing Weight Fast is Bad!
Recommended Answer:
This regimen will never get you to a 25 pound weight loss in 3 months if all else stays the same. One of the biggest misconceptions about exercise is that it is really useful for weight loss (at least in the amount you describe). If you jog for an hour, you will burn about 300 calories, and weight lifting for another hour might burn 150 (one takes a break between sets and does not lift continuously). So, you will--at best--perhaps drop 5-8 pounds.
BUT--what happens with many people is that after they work out, they feel they EARN a treat and get a bag of chips or a cupcake or whatever, and all the work is out the window; for others, the workout makes them hungry and they eat more.
Exercise is great for your mind and your heart...and can help weight loss at the level you plan, but not give you as much as you want. Here''s what to do: NO STARCH at dinner, that is, no potatoes, rice, pasta, or corn. Meat/fish/chicken, veggie and salad. No bread (except low-carb bread). And NO SNACKING between meals...that raises insulin levels and helps build fat. And no diet drinks or sweets...just water. Good luck.
