My diet plan is to count calories, and keep them at between 1200 - 1300 per day. Eliminate sugar and flour completely til the end of the year.

My exercise plan is as follows:

Monday
am - 1 hour cardio
pm - Pilates

Tuesday
am - Boot camp
pm - Yoga

Wednesday
am - 1 hour cardio
pm - Pilates

Thursday
am - Boot camp
pm - Power yoga

Friday
am - 1 hour cardio
pm - Turbo Kick

Saturday
Cardio kick

Sunday
Rest


This is my plan for the next seven weeks, through the end of the year. I think the doubles are important to really "jump in", and the pilates/yoga will help me with balance, flexibility, and core strength, since I'm not really comfortable "jumping around" a lot yet. Cardio will be mostly elliptical, with some swimming.
I have to watch my knees and lower back, because of a car accident last year. I think this plan will get my muscles stabilized, and ready to work.

Also, I think that utilizing the classes offered at my gym will be good for structure.
