All right, I know it's a bad way to lose weight, but this is how I did it. In September 2007, I was a 5"5 14 year old weighing 180 pounds... my waist size was 36!!! Now, I'm a 5"6 15 year old weighing 147 pounds and have a waist size of 30. I've been overweight all my life, so this is quite an accomplishment for me. I've only gotten into cardio and weight lifting this past month, so how did I lose the weight? I barely ate. I would eat breakfast, skip lunch and have a light dinner. at the time, I felt fine, and only felt a bit hungry at the end of the day but didn't know that it was bad for me. Hell, I still do it now too, but I know that this isn't the best way I can be losing weight and having optimal results. I want to be lean, and have a bit of muscle mass while I'm at it. Right now I'm aiming for something I've never had: a flat stomach, I'll aim for the 6 pack later on.
What do you think I should eat and what do you think I should do to achieve my goal?
I'm thinking...
Breakfast: A bowl of cereal.
Lunch: I have no idea what to make from home.
Dinner: One small plate of rice or pasta.. whichever my mom has made for dinner.
routine: gym 5 times a week, but only 3 of those used for weight training.
monday: Chest, Biceps, forearms, legs, 5 minute stair machine, 5 minute elliptical machine, 10 minute HIIT cardio (2:1 ratio.. 30 second sprint 1 minute rest) and 10 minute SS Cardio.
tuesday: same cardio routine as monday no weight lifting
wednesday: Triceps, shoulders, lats, abs
thursday: same as tuesday
friday: full body workout
saturday/sunday : rest
monday: repeat
