Question:
I am a 24 year old female, 112 lbs, 5,3" and have started a fitness program about two months ago. I strength train three times a week and do cardio for three days, with one day off, or sometimes more, depending how I feel on the specific day. I love it!!! One of the reasons I began working out in the first place was to speed up my metabolism, but unfortunately- nothing has changed. I am frustrated and crabby because I constantly feel bloated and hardly ever have a Bowel Movement on my own (I have to take Smooth Move tea twice or three times a week). I consume more calories and fluids, hoping that would encourage or speed up my metabolism when combined with workout program...Do you have any suggestions? I do not want to take supplements, but would rather find a natural, consistent way to change my condition. My diet consists lots of fruit and yogurt, oatmeal, chicken and fish, corn, peanut butter, tomato and lettuce...and ice-cream!!! I look forward to any tips you might have in store for me:) " |
