Diet and Exercise Question
I've have gotten 20 pounds overweight in the past 3-4 years and am now deciding to go on a diet and exercise plan. I'm asking if you think this plan is safe and sounds effective. Usually I don't eat breakfast but I am deciding on eating say a granola bar for breakfast every morning instead of nothing, or maybe a glass of chocolate mouth. I plan on skipping lunch since I dont really like school food anyway. I've heard skipping lunch can cause you to gain weight because you overeat but I think that if I don't eat a snack when I get home from school and limit my dinner portions and servings (small portions not tiny but you know, and one serving) then I will not overeat. Then for exercising I plan on doing crunches for my stomach and squats for my legs. I'm also going to lift canned food items to help build my arms up a little more.
Does this sound effective? If not is there another way you suggest? And do you know anymore exercises that are good for stomach, legs, thighs, arms, or anything (just any plain good exercises). Also, I may join a gym for 15 dollars a month, would that be better than exercising at my home. And if I exercise at my home what is a good recommended time? After dinner, before dinner, at night, etc. etc.
Thanks beforehand for any advice!

You are actually making yourself fat. Skipping meals is unhealthy. Its better to have 5 small meals then 3 heavy meals. And by the way, canned food have bad things in them so try not eating to much of that.
As for you exercise at home, I suggest you do about 100 situps a day, thats for the stomach. As you said, do squas for your thighs. For legs, go running at your gym for about 10 minutes and gradually increasing the time week by week. Lift wieghts for your arm muscle
I suggest you don't do crunches after you eat because it feels really bad. DO all of them at a different part of the day, but before any meals.

ok first of all dont skip ANY meals, its unhealthy, you just have to keep your meala proportionate or have 5 little meals a day instead of three regular sized ones, and a gym isnt actually "better" than exersizing at home unless you have no equiptment, and dont over exersize if you dont eat all of your meals, just keep your snacks healthy and eat right and dont skip any meals!! Pack a lunch for school!!
Hope I helped!! =D
