sensible diet/exercise plan that works with my life?
I work 3rd shift, have 3 kids, and not a lot of money or time to invest in special foods, gym etc . I spend my days off cleaning, and being that I never get much sleep regardless, I have no energy. I can’t take diet pills or anything with caffeine, it has been linked to the kidney stones I get, and with those, I have to watch my calcium intake, along with being lactose intolerant( i know i’m a mess, and I’m only 22!) I am made up of a lot more muscle than fat, so if I don’t see the lbs. falling off, compared to inches, I get discouraged, & the only thing that actually works is atkins, but it really makes me feel like crap, and messes up my stomach, so there goes the energy I do have. I have the will and want to lose weight, so I’m not making excuses. I want to slim down some by august, I’m going to see my brother graduate from bootcamp(marines) in S.C. so I’d like to look good. Any suggestions?
oh..I’m about 230lbs, 5′6". a lot is in my stomach and lower, (3 kids:)but I am alot of muscle, which is some of my problem.

That is soo good you are ready to lose weight. Eat about 1600-1800 calories per day and spread it out between 5-6 meals if possible. Good filling food has a lot of fiber. I’d try to get 25-35 grams of fiber per day. This will help you feel full and eliminate constipation which can add bloat, discomfort, and the extra pounds on the scale!
Some low calorie food/snacks I’d suggest are fruit/vegtables of course, tuna, chicken, turkey (watch sodium levels however) low calorie popcorn, 100 calorie snack packs (unhealthy food is fine in moderation which these packs provide)
Also try to stay under 2000 mg of sodium (under 1700 if possible) per day. Sodium retains water and will also add to bloat, besides that it is just awful for you.
Drink 100 ounces of ICE cold water per day. If needed add lemon.
With 3 kids (Id assume very young ages at 22) exercising can be used to your advantage. Put them all in a wagon and pull them for a ride. Walk 2-3 paces faster than you normall would and add an uphill walk to your route. If they’re old enough, play tag! Riding a bike is also an awesome way to lose weight. Take a child with if they are old enough, and they also sell baby’toddler seats and you can bring one with. Again, add an uphill route!
Outside you can even jump rope!
Inside your home you can do jumping jacks, sit-ups, stretches, even running in place. I even go up and down my small flight of stairs every morning and before bedtime. Every little bit helps.
At work park the at the farthest parking spot, or get off the bus 1-2 stops earlier. Take stairs always and only sit down when necessary. Try to stay on your toes.
dont work out as much run and eat veggies thats the only HEALTHY way to go
instead of sitting on the computer on this stupid web-site go out side and run of do something
good luck!!
eats lots of fresh fruits & veggies! Since you have kids, you should be buying those anyway. Also, I hate going to the gym, nor do I have the time or $$ to do it. I recently purchased 30 day shred with Jillian Michaels….20 minutes a day & some handweights (or canned goods) are all you need! & it really truly works!
Another suggestion~try walking for 45 min to an hour a day. This will help too. Stay away from carbs & soda, or at least eat in moderation. I was the same as you, I had to make the time to do this stuff. Funky/fancy diets don’t ever work permanently, and any diet that tells you not to eat fruits & veggies is very bad!
Start a routine, work out at the same time every day if you can. It takes 20 days to make a habit, so its really hard the first week!
You can do it!
Good Luck
