Question: Question about weight loss?

Answer #1:

Not that long if you keep doing the same routine.

Answer #2:

Bread is fine, as long as it's whole wheat and you don't eat more than 2 or 3 slices per day.

You should either try to increase your jogging time to 30-40 minutes *or* increase the speed of your jogging to a run.

If you follow this diet+exercise plan that I made after doing a *lot* of research, you'll lose 20 lbs in about 2 months.

For your diet:
- eat 1/2 or 3/4 of what you are currently eating
- low carb foods!
- eat foods with high protein and fiber
- fruits and veggies, every day
- about 8 glasses of water, every day. Don't drink too much though because you can wash away the good stuff. Drink water before a meal so you don't feel as hungry and you eat less, drink water during the meal, and drink water instead of snacks when you feel hungry.
- when you feel hungry during the day, either drink water or eat fresh fruits/vegetables. NEVER eat sweets, artificial flavored foods, sodas, etc.

Exercise:
Running will tone your body and at the same time take off the excess fat.

- run a mile (or more) at least 3 times a week. It's tough at first, but it definitely does work. After some time, running will get easier and you'll find yourself speeding up and/or going for longer distances. If you can't run a mile without totally dying, then run half a mile, walk at a fast pace for another half mile, and then continue with your running for the the other half of the mile. Never walk slowly/leisurely because it'll be a lot harder to get back to running. Plus, it won't be as effective for burning the calories. Running is great because you increase your heart rate and you can lose fat all over the body.
- doing core exercises with help tone your abs.
- swimming is also good for you.

Answer #3:

The MAIN thing that you wanna do to lose weight is Cardio (anything that boosts your heart rate, like jogging). You should do this 3-4 times a week for 30-40 minutes (50-60 minutes if you wanna lose a lot of weight). Preferably, you should do it in the mornings.

As far as food goes, try to avoid foods with lots of calories or sugar in them.

You don't HAVE to do this, but you can if you want. You can speed up your metabolism by taking some Acai Berry pills/supplements. Acai Berry is like grapes grown in Brazil, so you don't have to worry. I took them for 3 months myself (I only wanted to lose a bit of weight). Or, you can buy the V8 Fusion Acai Berry drink. The bottle is very colorful.
