I really want to lose about 28 pounds and 5 inches of my waist. Will the following plan work and how long will it take to see changes and the final result??? Ok i go to the gym 3 hours a week (aerobics, pilates, multigym workout, abs workout) I also am hoping to do 2 or 3 20 minute runs a weeks. and also 3 hours worth of a fitness DVD. and then about an hour of sport at school. i am fairly fit and already do about 4 hours of cardiovascular a week. also my diet is quite healthy (except the odd snack which i am cutting down on. also i have changed my old morning bagel to a fruit salad and pasta for lunch to a wholemeal sandwich). my current height is 5'8'' and i weigh about 178 pounds (so bit overweight-would like to be about 150) and my waist is about 35 inches (would prefer about 30). will this routine get these changes and how long will it take?? THANKS!!!
