Questionhi, i am 18 and i want to join the air force. ive been trying to get in shape for basic training, and i want to know what a simple eating plan for me could be. i tried looking at the cook book things, but theyre too complicated so i just bought slim fast meal replacers. i was eating special k cereal in the morning, a slim fast bar for lunch and like a sandwich for dinner and pretzels for snacks. however, id still be really hungry! what is a simple meal plan for me to help me be energized, full, and still be healthy and loose weight? also, was i not eating enough? oh and im 5'8 and 165 pounds. is this considered over weight? what is the best weight for me?
AnswerHi Sarah,
You could be 40 pounds over. Quit eating flavored junk, try real food, and eat as soon as you feel hungry - see http://www.premiumufuel.com
Find something fun to do that gets you breathing hard for 30 minutes a day - running, skating, ride a bike and do some slow motion resistance training once a week - if you realy work muscles slowly and consistantly, each group for a couple minutes, once a week is plenty.
