So you’ll need some cardio for burning off the fat as well as toning 😀

For toning, you need to lose a bit of weight to show the “toning through” if that makes sense. You’re not really losing weight since it’ll be replaced with muscle (that you’ve toned up) because you probably have untoned “fat” if that makes sense.

Since you’re female you’d want to do toning exercises that build lean muslces, so I suggest 30-60minutes of pilates a day, but you should always have a recovery day. Start out with 30minutes and eventually after maybe 2 weeks work your away up to 40/60. So every 3 days pilates, rest, and 3 days again of pilates. They’re really easy to do with your favourite TV show, revising etc.

Here’s a YouTube channel I’m using atm, I’ll send you some for thighs, legs and butt. There’s loads on the channel though, there’s even a 30minute pilate workout! They’re absolotely killer!!

Http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzZSCsw6i… Butt workout, with songs by beyonce, the girl really makes you want to do it as well,

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHfe0rG_T… legs and thigh

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7I-c-yw5Z… slimmer inner thighs!! 😀

And you should pair all of this with some cardio, and since you have a treadmill, you can go on it for 30minutes/45minutes. You could put your laptop in front or something that’s what I do, and listen to music, go on chatroulette haha! But don’t ever give up, the extra 5minutes makes all the difference! And remember you’re doing it for you 🙂

Also try to drink 2Litres of water a day, what I did was, bought a massive 2L bottle of evian, and changed the lid to a “sucker” lid as opposed to a cap lid, so I felt more inclined to drink it.

Http://www.youtube.com/user/blogilates/v… – And here’s the channel with all her videos, there’s some summer edition ones. They’re intense though!
Goodluck!

I just found this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1DS7G9Oj… ab workout one, on the same channel. Usually ab workouts strain my neck, but this one has a lot of “non-neck straining workouts” check it out! 🙂

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-wEz5XZw… here’s a fun cardio video by her also 😀

They aren’t hard, and she has really fun stuff like this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDpB8pWEj… a call me maybe, squat challenge! I never liked the song until I did this

Pilates works the core too, and she has great ab videos 😀
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nng_M4Zi… a ONE MINUTE ab challenge video! IMagine if you did this 3 times a day? Haha that would be a good start to toning 🙂

Really push yourself, and don’t give up! The extra few seconds really make the difference, remember you’re doing it for you!

Do you have a skipping rope? If so, first thing in the morning try and do 15/20mins of skipping.
You probably won’t be able to manage that at first, but work up to it, start of with maybe 5mins everymorning, then move up to 10mins etc. 15-20minutes of skipping is a full body workout.
– Breakfast is the most imporant meal of the day and your biggest meal, I would recommend porridge!
It’s full of fiber, lowers your cholesterol and is really filling. I like to have:
30g oats – 1 Cup Almond milk (any milk is fine) – My fav topping is a banana with a tsp of peanut-butter or cinnamon! Peanut-butter is healthy in small amounts. Cinnamon boots your metabolism. But you can put anything you like on porridge, maple syrup, honey, berries, apple, dried fruit, nuts (almonds/walnuts/pecans..) try different things out! 🙂
( Alternatively: Yogurt and fruit/nuts.. Make a fruit salad.. Some muesli / bran cereal but make sure to read the label for hidden sugars etc! )

I tend to not have anything to snack on before lunch as porridge fills me up but maybe some almonds or a piece of fruit if you do- but you’ll find that once you start eating more ‘whole’ foods, with more fiber and things you’ll won’t get so hungry / crave things!

Just before lunch I like to walk my dog, well even if i’m not i just like to go a walk.
So for lunch.. I like to make a nice big salad! (lettuce/tomatoes/olives/fetta/mozarella/cucumber/avacado..) greek salad is my favourite, but there are loads of different versions and things you can throw together! Sometimes I like to have some fish to bulk it out a bit if I’m hungry, or I’ll have a piece of bread. (we have a bread machine so i like to make my own bread, free of preservatives etc!) so if you’re going to have bread get a nice brown/seed bread.. Whole grain…
( *When i’m at home i have that or if i don’t feel like something savoury I’ll have a yogurt with fruit.. Just depends how I feel – At school I’ll have a salad with a natural yogurt and fruit )

I do like to have a snack between Lunch and Dinner – At the moment I like to snack on Dates!
But carrot sticks/cucumber/celery with hummus/peanut-butter.. Dried fruit.. A piece of bread..
Just depends on how hungry you are.

Dinner! I have lots of cooking books. I would recommend buying some of them maybe-
Omlette is something healthy, quick and easy! Plus you can add lots of veggies to it and have a side salad with it 🙂 Salmon, broccoli and brown rice..
Http://kblog.lunchboxbunch.com/ – Love this blog! I don’t always have all the “vegan” igredients but I just choose the non vegan option! For other ideas stiry-frys are delicious.. Fish is great for you!!

Tips:
Drink lots of water (2L Maximum) ; Star drinking Green Tea ( add a tsp of honey) ; Add a teaspoon of cinnamon to yogurt,smoothies,breakfast ; Eat more spicy food ; Make exercise a habit (Find something you enjoy! You can buy other work-out dvds online- search around, check reviews etc.

Now for treats and cravings.. ! I don’t eat healthy 100% of the time and I would be surprised to find anyone that did. Whenever I get a craving/having a bad day, one of my favourite websites is:
http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/

The most delicious thing for me is peanut-butter, banana and chocolate. I just have dark chocolate 70% cocoa (anti-oxidants).. Dipping strawberries in melted dark chocolate is so good too! Don’t have to feel guilty either! Also Banana and Oatmeal cookies.. Litterally just mashed banana with oats, roll them into balls, put them in the oven for a few minutes and bam! You can add chocolate chips if you want too!

**If it’s someones birthday, i’m at a restaurant, round someones house.. Then i don’t make a fuss, it’s one day, one meal, it’s not the end. I let myself enjoy it and then get back on the wagon the next day!
If i do have a binge wich HAS happened before, but that was because i was restricting myself too much so now i make sure i’m eating a bit of everything, make sure you drink lots of water after and don’t beat yourself up about it- work out why it happened to prevent it in the future- you won’t gain weight frm one binge, nothing significant atleast.
Having a few healthy days but eating junk the rest of the year is not going to make you healthy. Same as having a few “bad” days but eating eating healthy the rest of the year is not going to make you gain weight/be unhealthy! <3 Good luck with your heatlhy lifestyle 🙂 <3

Of course you will lose your extra wait in this time.But i can give you another suggestion.Don’t drink water half an hour before and after taking meal.This system can help you a lot to lose some extra wait.I did it and get result.Thats why my advice is keep hard working,walk every day and dont drink water before and after meal.
