Well you could be training Total body 3x a week and Cardio 2x a week. split the off days to day 4 and 7, os you train 3 days stright at any one time.

As for Diet, we could take a look at that just to be sure. You know meals and times :).

Remember diet is 70% of weight loss, try keeping a food journal for a while. A study from Australia found that sprint training burns significantly more fat than moderate prolonged cardio. Try a 5minute warm-up followed by 20 minutes of high intensity intervals and a 5 minute cool-down. Vary the interval durations everyother workout. If you find you can go longer, you're not working hard enough.

I lost two inches by intence cadio. I usually did 60 minutes a day, five mornings a week. It made me feel good accomplishing these goals. I noticed the difference in less than two weeks. It happened so fast. I did the lepitical machine usually for thirty minutes or for an hour. If I did thirty minutes of the eliptical machine, i followed up with 30 minutes on the bicycle machine.
