Exercise question (5 month window)

between eating healthy and exercising (mostly cardio), should i be able to lose 20 lbs or so in 5 mths for my crusie?

what exercises should i concentrate on to drop total weight and lovey handles?

i am not as active as i like but that is starting to change... i plan to run at the track, use a few machines at the gym for some toning and use ab machine (this really works cause it hurts) at home.

thanks all.. im just looking to go in the right direction with this post. go me

Probably not..........I say that only b/c I looked at your photo (I assume that is you) in the avatar----and from what your body frame seems to be, your body will not shed 20 pounds b/c tecnically there isnt much to shed.

If I had to assume, maybe 10lbs, but your plateau will most likely take a long time to get over .......sorry.....

Please let me know if I am wrong!!!!!

well
that is an old old picture
have been on medication that increase weight and eating

i was really looking for best plan of attack

thanks

I am a huge advocate of Body For Life. You should get the book. It takes some dedication and planning, but totally worth it. In my case, I didn't lose weight so much, it was just redistributed and converted (muscle weighs more than fat), but it was so amazing!!!

Basically it's 6 small high protein, low-fat meals per day. Then cardio three days a week and weight training three days a week. You can rest on the seventh day.

I think you can totally do it.

Good luck!
