treehuggerbby :
ok i really want to lostrart losing weight for a alot reasons
Not just becuase i want to fit into a size 3 or anything but so i can live longer and have a healthy active life
So i researched last night and kind of made up a start of exercise and start up healthy diet plan
Exercise:
10 minutes of jumping rope before i got to school
Then a walk before the morning bell rings (can be anywhere from 10-50 minutes) my school has alot of hills and stairs so a moderate paced walk through hills and stairs
Then i get home around 7:00 pm
and i need to STUDY ALOT
so maybe a 20 minute workout video
amd then during my studying ill had small times for jumping rope or jumping jacks (Ex. 20 minutes of studying 5 minutes of jumping rope or jumping jacks)
Then Monday,Wednesday,Friday ill do strength moves….i have a resistance band, and a few dumbells, and my own body weight
Is YOGA a good thing to do? would i count it as cardio or strength?
Healthy diet plan:
Example of one day
Breakfast: 1 1/2 eggs (93 cals)
1 peice of whole grain toast (80 cals)
1 bowl of special K cereal (160 cals)
and a banana (60 cals)

Snack: a jell-o (30 cals)
Lunch: A Romain lettuce salad with grilled chicken tomatos,cucumbers,1 tbsp a colby jack cheese, 2 tbsps of light italian dressing (400 cals)

1 cup mixed vegetables (bell peppers,onion,garlic,broccoli) (90 cals)

Yoga is good – it is more for stretching, stress reduction(good) and general health – not cardio little bit strength .
What’s with 1 1/2 eggs? Make it 2
I don’t have your particulars (current height, weight, previous activity level, medications…) to take into account.
Generally, 1500 calories is not too much for that level of physical activity (it may be too low).
good diet and exercise plan. Don’t forget to drink a lot of water and/or green tea throughout the day. This will fill you up and the green tea is full of anti oxidents that will keep you healthy and will also speed up your metabolism. Try not to be so strict on yourself. If you mess up one day, its fine just remember to stick with it the rest of the week. Dont be discouraged if you only loose 1-2 pounds a week, as this is the healthy weight loss rate because these pounds will stay off.
Yoga is a really good strength trainer, but also is a good cardio exercise because certain moves will increase your heart rate.
Research well done, I love your plan
