What is the best weight loss diet plan?
I am 17 years old, female. Prom is coming up in 3 months and I put on about 10 pounds over the summer that I want to take off plus a little bit more. I am 5’0 and 119 pounds. What I want to lose most, other than all around is my love handles, stomach (#1), butt (sticks out =/), and my arms are a little too fat for my body.
I am planning on going to the gym everyday for about 1.5-2 hours and eating healthy, however, I need a little help with following it and what would be beneficial and what wouldn’t.
I went to the gym today, for the first time for this diet plan/weight losing plan. I did the treadmill for 5ish minutes fast walking (warm-up/cool down) and about 10 minutes running (not SO fast, but running) and then did the sitting bike for 10 minutes/1.5 miles. It was my first day so I didn’t do much.
I am planning on eating healthy so it helps with my weight loss as well and my face.
I plan to eat Special K cereal with 1% milk in the morning (615 AM)
Lunch at school: apple and water? If I should eat more, maybe a sandwich (wheat bread with a slice of cheese since I’m a vegetarian, would that be healthy?) (1030 AM)
100 calorie pack? Or a granola bar would be healthier? (12-2ish, anytime between there)
Dinner: Indian food, but healthy, like soups and veggies.
Snacks during the day: apples, plums, oranges/tangerines/clementines, watermelon.
6 bottles of water per day.
Not eating after 7 PM.
I am planning to go to the school gym right after school from 230-3 and then come home and go to my gym by my house from 345-5?
What machines should I do? And how long about? (How do I keep myself from getting bored=( lol)
Also like on treadmill/elliptical should I do incline/hill, if it makes a difference?
Also I have a bit of acne on my face. Will exercising and eating like that help clear it up?
When will I see results? And is it possible to lose a bit of love handles/stomach/arm fat in about less than 3 months?
Thank you so much and if you have any other experience suggestions/ideas please help. If anything is unhealthy (foods that I listed) or exercises that will not help/help please tell me, thank you =)
If you ever did a diet/exercise plan that worked/is working in about 3 months, please tell.
I suggest keeping it simple.
Avoid junk food, sugar, and if you can cut out a simple carb here and there that wouldn’t hurt either. Just don’t go overboard.
As for your workout, I suggest 3-4 times a week. Do resistance (weight) training in the beginning of your workout. Do your upper body (chest, shoulders, back, arms) one workout, your lower body (abs, legs) the next. After weight training, jump on the treadmill/elliptical for 30-45 minutes.
Consistency is key. You’re young so don’t go insane with crash diets.
Good luck.
