The Exercise Enigma - both genders

[carmella_marie]

This is what I'm concerned about. I have always been about 120 lbs at 5'4" I don't have much to lose. I think I can lose 15 lb max, since 105 lbs would put me at a BMI of18.5. I really want to incorporate 8 weeks cardio before my attempt but I think that coupled with LE diet would lose too much too fast, what can I do?

eat upper level of cals and aim to hold steady on weight instead of lose.

I have a q. Does the dat n protein limit change when you add an hour of intense workout??

I am finding it nearly impossible to stay under. I'm usually under 1200 calories if I choose not to go over fat n protein limits. I hope that made sense

Ooo... I like the look of the link about male runners. My OH started running about 3 years ago just after we concieve d our son he is now running 30-50 miles a week with this upping soon as he is going to train for his ultra trial run. I'm happy to see it helps sway pink.

you need to tell me more about the types of things you are eating because something isn't right. It's not difficult to hit 1200 cals and if you can't, you are misunderstanding some fundamental premise of LE Diet.

Atomic, I am a physical therapist and I do pilates lessons 3-4 hours a week. I also walk with baby/stroller 45 minutes every day. I would like to TTC pink in september, but I am not sure what to do. BMI is 18.4. I have to continue pilates for sure (my job)... Should I up my daily walk, to power walking and add some extra cardio to get the full 60 mins? Any help would be appreciated, thanks

One more thing, can somebody guide me to the study made on biking and pink sway for DH? Thanks

[atomic sagebrush]

Yes that is exactly what I would do. I would continue your work of course, and then add exercise so you are doing 60 min a day.
