| Calorie counting and percentages are very tedious and annoying, but deffinitely effective. 50% carbs is a little rediculous, but i'm no dietition.
Protien and fiber speeds your metabolism and burns more "fuel" faster. Bad for cars, good for us. Everyones body is different, so no promises. It's good that you watch what you eat, but there are really only two ways to lose weight.
Get your heart at its target rate so it only burns fat. You can use a treadmill, stairmaster, whatever machine that has a heart rate reader (or whatever it's called) Or, choice number two is you can burn more calories than you take in. Low caloric intake, and intense cardio workouts.
I prefer the first one, but its up to you obviously. If you use this way it takes about 10 minutes to get to your target heart rate, and keep it there for about a half hour. This way you can lose only 10 pounds and look like you lost 25. Good luck |
