I suggest you find a game (tennis, basketball, etc) that your sister likes to play and use that as cardio. That makes it fun and keeps people interested. -------------- Practice does NOT make perfect. Perfect practice does.

The whole exercise plus change of eating habits all at the same time might turn some people off. I'm actually trying to do the same thing with my brother, that's why I ask. i figured I'd get the exercise going well for a while then start on the nutrition part.
