Hi Pinkee.

1. How frequently? Every day. Exercise at least once per day. If you exercise twice in a day, do cardio in the morning and weight training in the evening. Do whatever exercise you can. Running is good, as is aerobics, circuit training and weight training. They are all good, so do whatever is available to you.
2. Diet – follow a low GI diet plan and consume healthy, lean proteins too.

Moderation in eating is really the key. There is little point in specify % of protein, fat and carbs to eat as if you follow a healthy diet you will get the right amounts, and actually calculating is time consuming. You are better off spending that time running.

I am not so sure now. Some people now go by the rule of eating when hungry. If you wake up and exercise then you may miss breakfast completely and go straight into lunch. That is not bad. The problem is when you have a sluggish metabolism. If you start the day with activity then you raise your metabolism.

In my opinion mistake #3 “No Breakfast” is the most popular weight loss mistake, people must eat breakfast every day!

Maybe you are doing all the right things but just need to give yourself more time. After each workout you will be growing stronger and fitter, which will mean you are burning more fat all the time.

Thanks for your answer. Actually I exercise 1h or 1h30 every day, the program mixes intense cardio workouts (plyometrics) and weight lifting. I try to bring at least the same intensity each time. In addition, I do Body Pump + 20 min swimming twice a week. My arms are stronger but I didn’t lose body fat.

Hi Alie, I am not familiar with the P90X system myself. Are you exercising as well as dieting? You have to do both diet and exercise to lose weight, just eating fewer calories simply lowers your metabolism and makes you less active. Increase the exercise duration and intensity, carry on with the diet plan, and see how that goes.

Hi, I’m 31, 5.8 ft & 131 lbs (with 20.8% BF), I’d like to lose body fat and 8 lbs. I follow the P90X program since 3 weeks and I stick to the diet but I haven’t lose any pounds nor body fat. I eat 5 times a day small portions of foods allowed: 5 of proteins, 2 of veggies, 2 of dairy, 1 of carbs, 1 of fat & 1 of fruit. What do I wrong?
