What a great weight loss question:
Question: Okay,I do 45 mintues on the elliptical about 5-6 days a week.
I used to only be able do 20-30 mins.
I weigh 157 lbs I’m 5`1 (I would like to loose at least 20 lbs)
I take natural fat burner pills.
My point is,is my exercise enough?Should i be doing more.
It’s very hard for me to reach 45 mins,because I feel all dizzy and like I’m about to faint,but I also push myself because I feel like I should be doing 60 mins.
Keep in mind I’m a teenager.A very mature one and all,so I’m doing my best to become healthy and make a cnage for myself.
Any tips please.
I eat very healthy as well.

Answer: Actually, those pills are probably your problem. They’re usually full of crap (even if they’re natural) that will unnaturally boost your heart rate and give you the symptoms that you’re experiencing. Do NOT push through being dizzy and faint. You can seriously do damage to yourself.
DITCH THE PILLS, drink lots of water, and take it at a steady enough pace that you can do for at least 45 minutes.
First off, I agree, ditch those pills immediately!… Also try to add some running and biking in. How about Monday, Wednesday and Friday you do a 1 mile run workout (or half mile if you can’t do a full one yet) then 30 mins of elliptical and then on Tuesdays and Thursday you do a 2 or 3 mile walk/run on the treadmill followed by 20 minutes on the bike? Also, weight lifting also help you burn a lot of fat so you could always add some of that in every now and again.

Screw the diet pills. Boost your intake of green vegetables, seeds and whole grain cereals.
Do NOT eat anything made with white flour. No spaghetti, pasta, white bread, bagels or pretzels.
Hopefully, you have cut out all junk food and sugary drinks.
