Cutting back on eating is a dangerous slope because when you go back to the previous level, your body will react.

Instead, I suggest upping the exercise in a manner of speaking. Try this, do 25 push ups in the morning when you awaken and 25 at night before you go to bed. If you can, do 25 at noon as well. Try that for two weeks and see if you do not see a difference. Note - if you cannot do 25 each time, do as many as you can until you exhaust your chest and arms, then rest and continue to 25. In a few days, you should be up to 25 at one time. If you can do 25 easily, then make it 50.

Also, after doing the push ups each time, do 25 or more squats without weight. Be sure your form is accurate. Accurate form is to stand straight, feet shoulder width apart, and drop your a$$ below your knees with your shoulders never going over your knees. You may have to hold onto a chair for the first few times

Do these five minute sets in addition to whatever workout you are currently on and while doing the 22-25 points.

If you see no results, I am buying you a lite beer!
