New Year's Resolution : Weight Loss?!


Question: First of all, Happy New Year!

My top resolution this new year is to go back to my ideal shape.
I used to weigh 115 pounds in 2006 and had a body with abs to envy .

Now I'm pushing 145 on the scale and my abs skedaddled long ago.

I went Vegetarian in September, and I love how I feel! But, the scale doesn't lie and I'm not seeing any results. What should I do, if I want to be the "old me" again?

Being vegetarian has many health benefits.
Just make sure the grains you eat are WHOLE GRAINS and not bleached flours, white flours, enriched flours.
I suggest doing some exercises that get the legs moving, such as walking, jogging, running, swimming or bike riding.
These exercises that really get your heart pumping will burn the weight off quickly.

I like push ups, yoga stretches, pull ups, crunches, curl ups, leg stretches, calf raises, and squats as far as being good toning exercises that use no equipment and cost zero money to perform.

I like taking some dumbbells and doing some easy bicep curls, military presses, and lateral raises.

I think diet is important also and try to eat healthy home-cooked meals with lots of vegetables in them.

I try to stay away from the pop and sugar, candy, and fast food.

I try to get a good night's sleep each night.
