Please describe your diet and exercise regime. Thank you.

Well..... I try to eat about 1200 cal a day and I'm doing the ellipital for 20 mins and Weights for about 20 mins 3 times a wk and I dance salsa and hip hop for about 10-15 mins... 3 times a wk...

What he meant was what do you eat, and when do you eat?

However you eating 1,200 calories a day is a no-no. Unless you're training for a contest, you're causing a starvation mode, where the body holds onto fat. Plus you're potentially weakening Metabolism, if you get low Protein, and burn some muscle off. You shouldn't be doing that.

The average for women who don't exercise is 1,800, you realistically need around 2,100-2,200 for exercise.

I would suggest 2 ways to combat this.

Firstly increase calories by 300 a day. Based on a 6 meal a day plan.

1. 5g Protein, 5g Carbs, 1g Fat, (49 calories) more per meal. Roughly 300 a day.

2. 5 g Carbs, 3-4g Fats, (47-56 calories approx), more per meal. Roughly 300 a day.

Make a change for a week or two, until your Metabolism adjusts, then do it again, and finally a third time.

I would suggest option 1 for starters. Chances are your Protein is probably too low anyways.

Second time, option 1 might be necessary if it's still too low, otherwise option 2.

Third time, probably option 2 would be okay. Wouldn't need to do option 1 by then, I don't think.

By the end of about 3-6 weeks, you should be around 2,100 calories a day. Sounds daunting, but believe me you need this.

1 - whatever exercises you're doing do 4 sets of 8 of each and pair them up...i don't care how

2 - i will lso suggets increasing the wt to the next increment (chicks always lift too light)

3 - so now you've hopefully about 3 pairs of exercises and you'll doe ach for 4 sets of 8 reps...now start your rest at 60secs btween each exercise so you'll do exercise1, rest 60secs, exercise 2, rest 60secs, exercise 1 etc for all 8 total sets

4 - next week do the exact same program but decrease the rest by 5secs for each rest period and do this each week

hopefully your 3 wt sessions ahve different exercises
