I've been watching my calorie intake and trying to exercise. Ive just been doing this leisurly for my health but now I have an even that I want to look amazing for, and the sooner I can look great and just try to maintain that weight the happier I'll be.
I found these tables
Burn 1000 calories a day... to lose 2lb. A week or 104lbs a year
Cut 750 calories a day & Exercise at a low – moderate intensity 30min. a day
Cut 500 calories a day & Exercise at a moderate – high intensity 45min. a day
Cut 250 calories a day & Exercise at a high-very high intensity 45-60min a day
Burn 1250 calories a day...to lose 2½ lb. A week or 130lbs a year
Cut 750 calories a day & Exercise at a moderate – high intensity 45min. a day
Cut 500 calories a day & Exercise at a high-very high intensity 45-60min a day
So, based on this I want to cut 750 calories (from 2,000 = 1,250 I assume) and exercise at about moderate intensity for 30-45 minutes a day depending on my schedule so that I can lose 2-2.5 pounds a week.
I'm also drinking the recommended amount of water for the first time in my life and postponing alcohol consumption for a while at least.
Any advice on type of exercise you can do at home (on the 3rd floor without angering the downstairs neighbors!) favorite diet recipes and success stories welcome!
