General Nutrition/Exercise Plan?

I used to ride atleast 10 horses a day (i was a professional) and compete on the weekends; but now I am at school and don't have the time to devote to my horses. Anyways- now that I am not riding as much I have started going to the gym. I have always been very weight and body conscious. I am 128 lbs now and would love to get down to about 120. (I am 5'5) I have mainly been concentrating on cardio- doing 30 minutes to an hour 6 days a week, but I think I need to incorporate some weight lifting in my schedule to get the weight loss. I eat healthily. I generally eat a protein bar for breakfast, fruit for a snack, a salad for lunch, fruit for a snack, and either lean meat/veggies or a salad for dinner. I would like to know if anyone has any tips as to how I can go about losing weight, toning up, and gaining overall fitness. Thank you so much ahead of time! -------------- ~*~SB~*~

Follow it, eat right, and you will see the results you are after. -------------- If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything.... bb1fit@freetrainers.com
