Ht. 5'0, Wt. 135lb. - Starting tomorrow, I'm going to make a whole new diet/ workout schedule. It goes like this:
I wake-up sometime between 9am and 10am. I have a breakfast of cereal w/ fat free milk, yogurt, and orange juice.
I then go for a jog for about and hour. When I come back I rest for a little bit.
Around noon I have a lunch consisting of a ham and cheese sandwich, an apple, and soymilk.
Then I do 30 sit-ups, 15 v-sits, and some toning tecnigques with 3.3 lb. weights for each hand.
Once again, I rest for a little bit.
Then around 3:30 or 4:00 I have a snack. Either some crackers or yogurt with some water to drink.
After that I lunge for 30 seconds. Then rest.
Around 6:30 I have dinner, which is usually a home cooked meal with fat free milk to drink. Since dinners vary, I jsut say I can only have one helping.
After dinner I go up to Gold's Gym and run on the treadmill for an hour, and bicycle for 30 minutes. Sometimes, I will use a machine to tone my legs and lower body.
If anyone has any ideas/advice to add to my schedule PLEASE tell me. Also a tip for some of you...I got the Seventeen magazine and it shows some great cardio adn toning so you look good for back to school. I'm using it, and it works!

Honestly, i think you are doing too much. You are doing 2 1/2 hours of cardio alone, plus your sit ups and everything else. Exercise is really good for you, but too much of it is bad. I would suggest that you either go to the gym, OR go for your jog, not both. It tears down your body, and that's just if you do keep up with it long term. You are more likely to get tired of it and stop, since you are making it such a huge part of your life.
