Cross Training Questions

If i eat this - will i burn if off doing this?

If i eat 2 slices of brown toast for breakfast, either tomato soup or a turkey sandwich for lunch, a bowl of dry crunchy nut for tea will i burn this off and lose weight if i walk for an hour 4 times a week, go on my cross trainer (epileptical machine) for 30 mins a day, and do 3 sets of 10 sit-ups every morning and evening? If not, what do you recommend. Im female - 135lbs - 5ft 5 - 23 yrs old.

1. No it's not nearly enough food. The workout is good - lots of cardio and toning. The food side of things aim for; 200-300 cals for breakfast 60 cal snack 300-400 cals for lunch 60 cal snack 400-500 cals for dinner Loads of water, I mean a lot!!! and spike it with some citrus fruit as this has an enzyme in it that quite literally eats fat! These meals should be made up of good quality, close to source foods no alcohol, no pop not even the sugar free variety. Remember if you have to open a packet (not salads! I mean crisps and chocolate!) to get to it, it is probably man made, processed and full of crap, which in turn is counter productive. One of my many mantras is 'if ya put rubbish in, ya get rubbish out!' I say that before I stick a mars bar in my gob! Best Wishes Kez x
