I’m going on a week long cruise in Spring Break, one of the last weeks of March.
I’ll be in a bikini for most of the day probably and would like to feel comfortable in it.
I figured just 10 pounds would help to slim me down, flatten and tighten, you know?
I’m 16, 120pds, and 5’5. I have moderately hard swim practice for an average of 1 hr every week day after school. I’ve recently started a jogging/running program for 30 min on the treadmill everyday. As a New Year’s resolution I’m cutting out pop and junk foods of my diet. Because I am an athlete, I can’t just eat rabbit food all day and expect to have any energy for practice. I needs carbs and calories to burn, but from now on I plan on eating the healthier side of those.
Please give me some ideas on how to lose those ten pounds by late March.
I don’t really have a lot of time to do extra exercises, I figured that run on the treadmill would be enough added onto my swim practices. I’m exhausted at the end of the day, home by 6 or 7pm and go straight to the dinner table then homework then crash to sleep. I’ll start running in the mornings before school. My only off day are Sundays and those are usually spent taking it easy.
Anything is appreciated. But keep in mind I can’t go to stores and stock up on diet foods or do 300 crunches a day. I just need some free, do at home, slim-down tips.
Thank you!
Can’t join any groups like weight watchers or whatever. I’m 16 people, not fat. I just am looking for ways to slim my midsection.
Cocaine will do the job.
Since you’re not fat it would be harder to lose weight but you have plenty of time if u just want to lose 10 lbs. Running/biking for at least 45+ mins a day I think is the best way to lose weight. make sure to keep yourself hydrated to help your metabolism. Trust me im in the military, I had to cut off 10+ pounds before i get weighed every 6 months and take the our physical readiness test.
there is no need to do 300 crunches but 100 in intervals of 25 will tighten your abdominal muscles and flatten your stomach. make sure to snack through out the day four or five times, but only low carb munchies. eating only three meals a day with an active life style will starve your muscles which results in the storing of energy. your energy is stored in your fat cells and if the body gets enough energy ie food, through out the day your fat cells will burn off any excess. stretching before exercising is another way to stimulate you metabolism making for a more intense work out. and if you’re desperate you can also include dietary supplements such as metabolife or xenadrine
