Trying to lose weight, advice?
Hi there, I need some advice on what I should do (or if I'm doing enough) for losing some weight.
I'm trying to lose at least twenty pounds, or more.

I try to work out at least three times a week, I do twenty minutes on the elliptical, it changes by itself, harder and easier throughout the work out.

I do twenty sit ups, fourty crunches, twenty lunges plus a whole bunch of other things similiar to those.

Do you have any other things I should be doing? Or should I be good?

I'm 19, 143 lbs. 5"1'
I would like to be 110-120 pounds.

I really don't eat a lot of food either, I eat very small portions

You seem to be getting enough aerobic exercise to help lose weight. What are you actually eating. Portion size is important, but it is what is in those portions that counts! For instance do you eat a lot of takeaways or fatty and sugary foods? If you do, try minimizing these and stick to wholesome, healthy foods. What exercise do you get on the days you aren't actually seriously working out? Do you walk a bit or are you pretty sedentary? Try to be active every day, even if its only for a short time. Good luck and keep us posted on your progress.

Hello,

Thank you and your suggestion is valuable. The first thing I would say is diet and fitness shouldn't be about losing weight and then stopping, it should be about changing your lifestyle so you can lose weight, improve your health and body shape, and stay like that. And the other think then I think about exercise. You should think about doing cardie exercise, such as jogging, two times a week for 30 minutes.

Thanks lot
