IMO,dancing courses is more interesting but not as effective as treadmill on losing fat. Now I will restart morning cardio on treadmill and cut down evening exercise a little relevant.

New exercise(remain no weight trainning)
6:00
warm-up 10min
treadmill 40min
cool down 10min

18:00
warm-up 10min
dancing course/spinning 40 min
body balance／yoga/ pilates 30min
cool down 10min

I will start this workout next week and just see what will happened.

I will have an outing with my friends, looking forward to that wonderful day!

I'm sorry maybe I missed this somewhere... What's your long-term goal? Do you plan on keeping your calories at 1200 with this much cardio over a long period of time??? To me it seems like you are putting yourself into starvation mode...

I felt tired today because of my sore heel. I think the chief criminal is that damn high-heel shoe. I can’t bear them for the whole day. Aye, wearing them makes me sexier but sore foot followed. OMG, my poor foot.

Today is the outing day with my friends and I prepared the lunch last night.
Meal 1 (7:00)
½ cup oatmeal
½ cup whole milk
4 egg whites
½ medium banana

Meal 2 lunch time
1 cup yoghurt
Sandwich: 2 slices whole wheat bread, 2 lettuce leaves, 5 slices chicken breast
2 egg whites
1 apple
1 banana

Meal 3 supper time
1 cup rice conjee
1 whole egg
¼ cup spinach
½ cup cauliflower
1 medium tomato
1 tsp olive oil

I like the outing in Spring, flowers and green grass makes me happy and relax. We climbed a hill called” two dragon hill”. On the top of the hill, we saw a beautiful view that a huge waterfall which is fantastic glaciated. As I kept climbing up and down for almost 5 hours, my legs jerked from fatigue. No workout and go to sleep earlier is better for me to recover.

Thanks for ur reply! I am just confusing of it.
I know I should eat more than that but I don't know why keeping my calories at 1200 doesn't make me into that starvation. Do u think I should take a test on BMR medically or etc.?

This forum has such a lot of great long threads, such as Bunny's log, Treils's log.... I love reading them, they give me inspiration, motivation and energy! Since I have no problem to get up early in the morning. Today I have AM cardio and that was great. I feel that I am full of the energy the whole day.
I have a big problem on doing yoga. After doing yoga for about 5 min, I feel sleepy and begin to yawn. I almost do the yoga in half sleep! That's really funny! Are there anyone who have the same problem like me?

I would get a RMR test done and then add on your activity levels. I think holding your calories at 1200 for long periods of time you are dropping your metabolism, and putting your body into a catabolic state. Maybe try the carb cycling like the other ladies are doing to help keep your fire burning.... Check out IcePrincess's Log.
