Maybe give some free advice about: Health?
First, you don't want to over exert yourself in exercising. You want exercising to be a relaxing, slow-building process. When eating, you want to make sure you are eating five times a day, three full meals then two snacks in between like apples, bananas, granola bars, etc. Breakfast should be cereal, oatmeal, cocoa wheat, or even eggs (doesn't matter how done). Lunch sandwich, fruit, etc. Dinner could be things like chicken, rice, turkey, tuna, pasta, lasagna, etc. You want to eat meat but chicken is the most healthiest. You can still eat what you normally do as long as you are eating 5 times in moderation. If you cut meals out, you actually gain weight. If you exercise too much, it is like you are not eating because you are burning more calories than you are eating. I would suggest exercising in the morning and night. Start with a low number like 10 for a week then gradually increasing it by 10 each week. You don't want to overexert your muscles because if you over work them, you be sore but also build alot of muscle. If this happens, you size won't change but turn into muscle.

Try to, instead of dieting, eat 6 or 7 really small meals a day instead of three normal sized ones. It's easier for your body to digest and it speeds up your metabolism. The portions should be no bigger than the palm of your hand and the height should be also about the same as your hand. I know these portions are quite small hence you eat every three to four hours. Try to stay away from dairy products and move towards fish or birds that can't fly such as Turkey or chicken instead of pork, beef, duck, or shellfish. Dairy products are hard to digest and fish or poultry( the above mentioned) is leaner than the other types of meat. Also dancing is a low impact good way or losing weight. I dance for about two hours everyday. Just put on some of your favorite fast paced songs and just move around. It's a fun low impact way to lose weight. Five minutes everyday however is not going to do much. Also it's better to take a 15-30 minute walk everyday then run 5 kilometers twice a week. So try to take a walk every morning before breakfast or walk anywhere that is within a mile or two. Don't skip breakfast! It's the worst thing you can do especially when your eating like this. If the quantities are any bigger than the above mentioned you will gain weight so don't do this if you aren't determined to lose weight and think you will cheat! Goodluck! :) Hope you lose a lot! Anymore questions then you can just ask me!
