Gotta Lose Weight

[Honda4trax250x]

well its that time of year again, the time i decide i need to get my lazy arse up and lose some weight!

i go out to lunch every day during school, but im going to try to stick to places like subway, or deli. im also going to drink water, and only water. as for dinner that is a hard one cuz my mom is very busy so i usually find myslef going out to eat almost every night.....any suggestions what i could eat for dinner?

and as for breakfast, i know its girly haha, but would one of those shake thingys be good? if so, which one?

And of course you cant lose much weight just eating better, i think im gunna start riding my bike again. i ride at a pretty quick pace, so how long do you think i should ride for?

ill also try to get some crunches in as well


any tips?
any solutions on how to keep myslef motivated, because usually i stop after abt 2 weeks. but this time i really want to try.....

ADVICE?

thanks in advance

I suggest running. For breakfast see how you like those breakfast bars. Most of them are good. Just make sure you always eat breakfast. Then ur lunch sounds good with the subway. Also good idea with the water, you can always do the self urine check, the clearer the healthier remember. For dinner remember to eat meat and vegetables. Stuff like that. Also remember that its good to have carbs and stuff before you run.

the key to losing weight is just losing more calories than you take in.

Hope this helps, i just got done with highschool soccer season and the coach is also a biology teacher. So we learn all about the stuff to do

just ridin a bike for 30 minutes a day would help, morew if ya can, as far as those shakes go idk. i pretty much eat whatever i want because i burn it off so fast. if ya got the money get a membership to a gym,if not try to find a friend that you can ride with and exercise with that way ya'll can help keep each other motivated and it wont be so boring.i know this might sound odd, but if ya eat smaller meals several times a day its better for ya then eatin 2 or 3 huge meals a day.drnking a lot of water will help a lot too.

remember it takes 15-20 minutes of exercising before you start to burn fat. so i suggest walk at a speed walking pace for about 15 minutes then ride your bike

A couple of questions for you before I try and answer you.

1) Are you trying to lose weight or are you trying to lose fat?

2) Are you trying to get back into shape?

3) Do you want to gain muscle mass?

1) Fat

2)Nahhh not really for now

3)Ive naturally got a decent amount without lifting, i know its easier to trurn fat into muscle than nothing to muscle, so im thinking of starting to lift free weights as well.
