[quote=Anonymous]Hey, pp:  let's revisit your diet and workout. One of the things that I'm seeing is that you are working out fairly inefficiently. Trade that workout for a good 45 minutes lifting/core session 2-3x weekly. If you don't have a gym, try bodyrock on YouTube or maybe one of the DVDs. Three more days---two of these can be weekends so you sleep---aim for 60-75 minutes of moderate to low intensity cardio. Think plopping kids in stroller and taking nice long walks, or if they are bigger, hitting the bike paths or hiking. There are really nice hikes in the area.

Then fix your food:  breakfast should be around 400 calories and hit the protein hard. My favorite is an omelette or scrambled eggs with a whole egg and a bunch of egg whites, spinach, peppers, mushrooms and a bit of cheese. Add coffee if you drink it, some bacon if you like. Avoid the fruit so early or you will be starving all day.

Lunch is a giant salad with 4 oz of lean protein and some fat. Water, unsweetened tea, coffee....no juice or artificial nonsense. Watch the carbs:  I'm paleo so no grains. I do like and recommend Greek yogurt but get the plain kind:  fage is sweeter plain than many of the others---and add fruit. 
Dinner:  lean protein and veggies. Pasta packs a caloric wallop and causes insulin spikes that derail weight loss, WW be damned. One half cup is 100 calories and most people eat2-3 times that.

Easy, you won't be hungry, and your poor abused body will thank you. [/quote]
