Diet and exercise questions?
I’m 48 and out of shape. Doctor advised me to lose weight (5’9″ ~ Weight = 226) with diet and exercise. For the last month I have been eating about 1,600 calories/day. I have been working out with weights and doing cardio (rowing machine & treadmill) with a measurable calories used from cardio of about 200-350 calories/day x 5 days/week.
The doctor told me that one pound = 3,500 calories. Am I on the right track? Do I need to increase my cardio to burn more calories/day? Do I need to decrease my calorie comsumption lower than 1600 calories/day?
When I began one month ago my weight was 232 pounds and now I am at 226 pounds. Is there anything else that I can do to lose more rapidly. I find that now, 1600 calories/day is OK but I really have a hard time falling short of that and not be hungry.
What low calorie foods should I consume to improve nutrition and consume a greater bulk so as not to be hungry? what about meds 2.?
Any advice that you might give would be appreciated!
