I've been working out for two months and i haven't seen a change?

i am trying to lose my fat and to build just a little muscle. well i'm not fat it's jsut that i don't want any excess skin on me, so i've been trying to lose it . so far i've been running for like 20 min. doing cardio, and sit ups and crunches. i haven't seen a change yet. well i want to know am i suppoed to see a change, is it to early..or am i just doing it wrong?.........
Answer:
Are you watching your calories and getting enough carbs and protein? People that tell you to avoid carbs are full of it. Your body needs carbs if you want your work out to be effective. Keep within 1600-1800 calories a day. Cut out mayo, junk foods, and drink skim milk and lots of water . Make those calories count!

it's not just excersize, you also need to eat heathly or you will not see a change

Try a calorie counter watch.
When you can see the numbers it makes a huge difference
You may just need a new way of looking at it.You take 3,500 plus your intake..Normal is 1,200 when on a diet.So you have to burn 4,700 a day to burn one pound. Its really easy to do when you can see your goal in numbers. You find yourself shaking your bootie to some music while cooking dinner or waving your arms while watching tv to make sure your numbers are still counting. When you can see what it takes to make your number goal you will have a better idea of what it takes to loose a pounds. And it makes everything seem so easy.You can pick up an inexpensive one off an online auction or a sports store.Good Luck

how often are you running. consistency is key. so is diet. are you eating junk and then running 20 mins? and to be honest 20 mins is really the MINIMUM cardio you can do. you shoudl do more. also, you dont want excess SKIN??? if you're skinny, dont start obsessing about your weight. you prob look fine.

My best advise is to try and run more, but it is way to early Hun, wait at least 6months and I guarantee you will have good results if you are keeping your calorie intake at a normal level.

Most people don't see the different by themselves . The best way is to measure your body and see how many cm did you lose try old cloth. reshaping is different than losing weight

the same thing is happening to me. i haven't seen a change yet, but something that will help is eat healthier and keep doing what your doing. maybe get involved in something like karate or dancing. that will really help. trust me. hope this helps!~*mary*~
