Default Does This Routine Sound Good?!

Ok so I got an exercise bike and I ordered Kathy Smiths Project You (Just the foundation cardio video, pilates core video and lower body/abs video) I couldn't afford the whole set for $50, these 3 are only $15! lol

http://www.beachbody.com/jump.jsp?it...rID=157&KICKER

Anyway Im trying to design a routine, so Im thinking:

Monday, Wednesday, Friday: Bike 30-60 minutes
Tuesday, Thursday: Foundation video (30 minutes) & Lower Body/Abs Video (30 minutes), Bike 15-30 minutes

I will probably add in my own upper body exercises too since the video only covers lower body and abs, I have a bunch of magazines with routines for the upper body...maybe I could do some of the upper body exercises while on the bike!?

Does this seem ok? I don't know when to add in the pilates though..I think when I do the videos I will do them in the morning after I wake up and have breakfast...and the bike I like to do while Passions is on at 2:00 or 3:30

As for eating...it is always alot of trouble for me, especially right now because Im living with my bf and his family and there isnt alot of healthy food in their house, with my mom there was tons b/c she was health conscious too, so Im just going to work on improving my eating slowly...less junk food, smaller portions, eating only when Im hungry etc. I'm trying to keep my calories around 1800, so Im thinking around 500 for breakfast, lunch and dinner and 300 for a snack(s)?

Does this all seem ok? I've made up so many routines before and never stuck to them but I would like to actually do this one, because I have an exercise bike now, I dont have to leave the house, I have no excuse now really...I just need to stick with it, and get it off for good now while I only have 100lbs to lose and not more like it will be if I keep going at this rate and I dont want to let myself get there.

Any suggestions are great! Thanks.

I think you could still follow the full Project You calendar with out doing all the videos. The first sex weeks are like this
M 30 min cardio 30 Lower body weights
T 30 min cardio 30 Upper Body
Wed Yoga and Pilaties
thur 30 min cardio 30 Lower body weights
fri 30 min cardio 30 Upper Body
Sat- 60 min of cardio

I lost a lot of weight doing this routine. The diet that came with the program is really helpful too.
