    By eating on a deficit, drinking a ton of water and working out (cardio, strength training, HIIT, your choice!) you can easily lose 20 lbs in 3 months in time for your wedding!

    Also, I have noticed that yoga and general stretching REALLY helps with.. "digestion" :wink:

    High Intensity Interval training(HIIT) workouts! Love them! examples are like 30 day shred or insanity but you can get some great HIIT workouts and others on youtube called fitnessblender! and of course eat healthy rather its paleo, veg or whatever just eat right!

    woo thank you... I tried 30ds..it's hard stuff... but nothing that works will be easy. I am going to look into HIIT

    Without,

    1.Diet pills or
    2.Starving yourself

    Alot of people swear by cutting carbs, is that your method? Do you include fruit in this equation?

    Do you believe that eating a blanced diet of veggies, lean protein, whole grains, good fats is the way to do it?

    Do you think you burn more fat when you eat every 2-3 hours?

    Is pure Cardio enough to burn the fat or do you strength train as well?

    Not eating after 8? Ect...

    I would like to hear what you think works best for you.

    Thanks!

    choose a weight you can only pick up about 3-5 times.

    This is your starting point.

    Focus on form.

    Enjoy your new life.

    The beginning.

    High Intensity Intervals first thing in the morning before eating. Then a 20 minute circuit workout right after 4-5 times a week. That along with a 500 calorie deficient and eating every 2-3 hours to keep the metabolism fire stoked, and you should be good to go in my opinion. Goodluck!

    Usually starting with lower weight and increase your reps first is advised.....at least this is what I've learned in all my OT fieldwork and 2.5 years of grad school. You need to be very cautious when lifting weights. Any shaking as you are lifting a weight indicates weakness so I would personally suggest starting with a comfortable weight and just increasing reps. (i.e. external rotator 20lbs, 2 sets of 10). once you find like 3 sets to be to easy then consider increasing the weight by 2-5lbs (depending on type of lifting) .... but dont' mean to offend here at all....maybe I just don't understand this lift and lift heavy and you could explain a bit more? Thank you!

    As a beginner, I'm using the LiveFit program from Jamie Eason that lays out lifting routines, adds cardio, and integrates nutrition over 12 weeks. It's helping me be more aware of what I'm eating and get started on lifting. It's all free at http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/jamie-eason-livefit-trainer.html
