I'm a teenager who has always struggled severely with her weight. I'm 5'2" and I'm usually between 165 and 170 pounds. I have been up to 183 previously though. I just started a new exercise program where I do 20 mins on the elliptical trainer and I go on the treadmill for 40 mins (i run 1/4 a mile and walk 1/4 a mile alternating it until it adds up to 2 milds) and it says that i burned 563 calories the last time I did it. I do this 4 days a week (i have dance classes the other 3 days)
I gained 5 pounds recently and I can't tell if it's from PMS or just because I'm fat.
So how do I tell if it's from PMS or not?
Also- i'm CONSTANTLY hungry. i'm a vegeterian so i'm not going to eat meat or anything.
someone give me some advice and tell me if you think that my exercise program will make me thin.
I am unsure about what your diet consists of so I cannot give a very detailed response I'm afraid (also your age here may play an important role as well) but the one thing I would like to suggest is that you seek professional assistance with your diet and exercise plan.
You may be able to have a session with a personal trainer who can write up a routine for you to follow as well as make recommendations on a healthy diet (which is vegetarian) which may better be better suited for the results you seek. It was what I had done in the end (I had joined a gym and their trainers there were more than happy to walk me through a routine I could use for weight loss).
