Life style

So just changing your diet will help you cut a few pounds, but if you workout you will lose even more weight.

I work 12-hour shifts, 7-7, the following is my workout and eating schedule:

0445: Wake-up

0515: Get to the gym for cardio

0600: Eat a Granola bar and a protein shake with skim milk

0800: Old fashioned oatmeal with cinnamon for flavor

1030: Eat a meal of meat and carbs

1200: Gym for calisthenics and cardio, half an hour each

1500: small serving of fat-free sugar-free jello or pudding

1700: Eat a meal of meat and veggies

1930: Protein shake (if Im hungry)

2130: Sleep

I have lived this schedule as close as possible for the past 4 months and have seen awesome results.  Now my situation is kind of odd, I was only able to stick to this workout schedule for 4 days a week.  The other three days I had my daughter and wasn't able to make it to the gym, but I stayed on the diet.  Had I been able to workout everyday, I would have lost the weight faster.
