Ok here's the scenario, I'm a diabetic who is trying to lose weight. I've been doing some working out over the past few weeks but I've noticed that my weight loss is EXTREMELY slow. In fact I've even gained about 10 pounds although my overall size seems to be getting smaller. I've heard that diabetics have a hard time shedding weight so I figured maybe thats why my progress is slow. Anyway that prompted me to devise an intense exercise and healthy eating regimine. Please look it over and give me your opinions on whether or not it is a good one. Thanks
My exercise plan is actually very simple. Everyday I plan on performing 2-3 sessions of HIIT cardio for about 20 minutes. Every other day or every 2 days I will perform weight training to develop my upper body. In addition to the cardio and weight training I plan on aggresively performing pushups and situps on an every other day basis.
Finally on Friday-Sunday I will try to play at least an hour of basketball in place of one my 2-3 cardio workouts. Hopefully this will help me quickly shed the body fat.
My diet is even more simple than the exercise plan. My meals will consist basically of green vegetables and lean grilled meat. (fish, chicken, beef, etc.) I am cutting out all carbs, sugars, breads and fried foods. My only beverage will be water. Also my diet consists of eating several small meals through-out the day for about a total of 5-6 times.
My goal is to keep strictly to this schedule and diet for a period of one month. I'm hoping to see a drastic reduction in terms of weight and inches.
Can anyone tell me if this will acheive the goals I'm trying to achieve?
