Okay, so I asked a question revolving around this, earlier, but I don't think I explained it very clearly, or may not have provided enough information.
I'm warning you, this will be long; but I'll rate high to anyone who will sit and read, and help me out, with a straight-forward answer.
So, I'm trying to lose weight this summer. Not even specifically that, more revolving around the fact that I want to look more thin. My first question would be, if I work out, will I look more muscular, or look more toned?
Here is my eating plan:
Eat three meals a day,
Healthy snacks (grain cereals, fruits and veggies-anyone wanna list more?) any time I want, when I'm actually hungry.
Fatty snacks require extra workout, ect-certain amount of curlups for each snack, ect.
Workouts will consist of:
Running on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays for cheering,
Cheerleading practice five days a week, starting in August,
Curlups for snacks
Curlups just, generally every night
Swimming, basically every day. At least 20 minutes at a time.
So, I was wondering if anyone could tell me how well those combinations will work out, and possibly how much weight I'd be able to lose in maybe a month, or over my whole summer break?
Btw, I weigh about 100 pounds, am 14 years old, and am at about five feet tall.
Thanks for any help!

Instead of eating three meals a day though, you might want to eat five or six small meals a day. It is better for your metabolizism. Also, if you are a choco-holic like me, whenever you diet you CRAVE chocolate. Every once in a while, i eat a banana and dip it in hersheys syrup. The syrup is not NEAR as bad as actual chocolate.
Also, when you are dieting just watch proportions. For me, i LOVE chocolate ice cream. so, instead of my usual eat-till-you-want-to-stop, i just eat one scoop of it. See what i mean? Well i hope i helped, and if you need anything just leave a question in my inbox!!

Probably you'll see a five pound difference in a month and so on. [ Cmilner1607's advice column | Ask Cmilner1607 A Question ]
alwaysmile answered Friday June 22 2007, 11:25 pm: that sounds really good, and because you have a plan all ready, you'll probably get to where you want to be. the only thing you might want to change is eat 5 or 6 small meals a day. you'll have more energy for excersizing and whatever else you want to do.
good luck (: [ alwaysmile's advice column | Ask alwaysmile A Question ]
