Looks like you're close to what you want already Jackie. Your diet's going to have to be spot on, and I'd think full body strength training coupled with interval training would work well for you.

thanks, yeah i think im getting there with the diet, i think lots of fruit n veg is the way to go. Would an example of interval training be something like
running or cycling:
1 min all out, 1 min rest alternating for like 10mins.
does this sound good?? please comment

Yup - the ones I do are 1 minute all out, 2 minutes rest, for 3 rounds. You can add more rounds and more times per week as you feel ready.

todays workout:
20 press ups
100 crunches
10 lunges
I couldnt do the 10mins of jogging/running for some reason, my body was just too tired and unfortable, maybe its because ive been doing some digging today.

Please know this is constructive critisism, but I think in order to reach your goals a lot of changes need to be made. 1) The crunches and push ups really aren't going to help you reach your goal. The only goal they help reach is... doing more crunches and push ups. Once you get to about 12 reps you need to start adding weight so you can't do more than 8 - 12. To see defined abs you need to build up the muscle some, and then shed the fat to show the muscle off. I know "building muscle" sounds scary to most women, but that really is what you have to do to reach your goal.ok i never knew this, thanks
Your diet is mostly healthy foods, but very very carb heavy. I'd love to see you getting in some (a lot) more protien through meat and fish and such. Some healthy flax, fish, and nut fats would be good too! Are you keeping track of calories and macros at all? I have some sort of meat or fish for dinner everyday, and im eating eggs in the morining on weekends, and the oat bars i make have protein in them.
ive tried calorie counting n its not for me
Is there a reason you're not doing weight training? Do you shy away from it or just not have access to equipment? It really is vital to any goal. Like I said, the crunches and press ups are not going to take you very far without added weight. I dont have any weights, would heavy books work?
Anyway, its wonderful you're keeping a journal. Keep it up, be honest, don't be upset when others are honest with you - and I'm sure you'll reach your goal!
