Wooohooo! you rock girl! You just burn that fat right up!
Seriously, though!. That sounds very good!. You sound like a determined person to actually have kept up your diet since may!. Dont you dare stop now! and yes, what you are doing is healthy! dont let others say it isnt!. I have been a "health freak" for a long time, and People who say that it isnt healthy arent considering your weight!. The heavier you are, the more calories you burn!. And unless you are in the 6 foot range, I'm guessing that you are over weight!. But the fact that you are doing something about it is wonderful!.
Happy dieting!Www@Answer-Health@Com

well it is very good but don't stop you know you could always do better
eating lean meats
but if you do an hour even by sleeping you can lose weight so sleep at leats 6 hrs if you can't do an hour a day do at least like run in place for a minute drink fresh juice plain and simple like put 4 strawberries cup of ice and cold pineapple juice that smoothie is delicious
and low in carbs and holds up for long

its a terrific weight loss rate!. Some people try to lose too fast, and the majority of them just end up rebounding!. 1-2 pounds per week is a healthy rate to lose weight and keep it off, and you're doing just about that!. It sounds like you're doing it the right way too - no fad diets - just good nutrition, exercise and healthy portions!.

Great Job! keep it up!. : ) Www@Answer-Health@Com

i average 5 lbs a month of weight loss!. some weeks i might lose up to 3lbs and some weeks nothing and it averages out to 5lbs a month!.
i did very little weight training and rode my bicycle over 200miles in 2 weeks and only lost 1 1/2lbs!. i'll be happy if i lose 3 1/2lbs in the next 2weeks!.

it's okay but if your try to get toward your goal weight soon then your in trouble!.
but let me tell you a story about myself and see if that helps you any k!?
alright, so about 6 years ago when I was in 2nd grade I was a complete loser!. I was weak, shy, and i didn't stand up for myself at all!.
You know one of those girls that you would never want to be friends with but love to mock and jeer at!.
so about 2 years later,5th grade, I had had enough! I decide i wasn't going to be invisible any longer!. I started to train myself in strength and agility!. I started doing push-ups!. First, i could only do 3 in 10 min!.
Then, i started doing 20!. then finally 30!. i did them whenever i had a chance!. when i was wacthing the TV!. or even when i just didn't have anything else to do!. i trained with 3lbs weights!. i laid on my back and with the weights i lifted my arms about 2 inches off the ground and held them there for as long as i could!. puiased with about a five minute break and did it again!. this helped me tremendiously!. By the next year I even though i was still shy i was know as the armwrestling champ because i had beaten all of the other students in my grade at armwrstling!. then just this past year i joined trak and field at my school!. i had never done it before but i wanted to do it because i knew i could get stronger!. my friend told me about shot-put and discus and it sounded like fun! that year i beat my captain at throwing shot-put, my 6lbs ball went 31ft 8inches!. i was soon made captain for my efferts!.



so what i hope you got out of that is push yourself to what you think your exstant is!. then you'll feel soo proud of yourself!. if you think exercising 20 min!. a day is not enough then go for it! seriously!Www@Answer-Health@Com
