I have been receiving a lot of messages asking how I'm losing so much weight so I decided to make a blog addressing it.
First let me just say how awesome it is that you want to improve yourself! Exercise is very important when losing weight but what is even more important is your diet. When it comes to losing weight 80% of it is what you're eating. My diet consists of turkey, fish, chicken, fruits and vegetables. I cut out almost all carbs. No pasta, no bread. Oatmeal is a good source of carbs without it affecting negatively on your diet. It's always important to eat consistantly throughout the day. 5 or 6 small meals is most ideal. Also, I have been taking green tea pills and hoodia as supplements that help also, they are natural. I also drink protein shakes for those in between meal snacks. I work out 3 days a week doing cardio, weight training, and yoga. The initial weight I lost, I was working out at a club called Curves (for women only, found all over the world.) They have a great program. It was only a half an hour 3 days a week. I have since moved on to 24 hour fitness (not available on the east coast). I did this because I believe I am ready to start focusing on toning and sculpting. Good luck with your goal! HH
