Hey ya'll. I've posted before and this time I'm asking for a few tips and/or advice. I've completley changed my eating styles. I always have breakfast, no matter what. I used to rarely have it, but now I have to. I changed my lunch from a slice of pizza, fries, and chocolate milk to a half a turkey sandwhich and skim milk. For a snack, I try to kill of all cravings and go bananas or other fruit, and dinner's the same except for smaller portions. I haven't put as much commitment into it as I can. But I'm going to start this week. I want to excersize more, but I really can't. :( My parents won't let me join a gym or buy a treadmill. I don't have so much time on my hands with homework and work around the house. And it's cold and icy out so I'm scared to go running with the little time I have. Anyone have any tips for me to squeeze some excersize into my diet?

If you dont have time to go to the gym or go running, just do some crunches, push ups, and leg lifts in the mourning when you wake up and at night before you go to bed. If you have any hand weights like 5 pounds or so, try using them a well.
