How to lose fat from THIGHS, BUTT, STOMACH, and Arms?

Okay, so Im 5’9″, and 165 lbs. My doctor says its normal, but I want to lose weight. I have a lot of fat that “jiggles” and I hate it. I cant wear clothes most girls wear becuase I look fat in them, and i want to do something about it by the time September comes. So I want to tone my THIGHS, BUTT, STOMACH, and Arms (but def. the one in Caps)
I want a diet plan that can help me. As in, how many calories should I eat. Im a vegitarian, so I eat veggies and fruits. Also, my mom fries the veggies in oil. Does that make the veggies unhealthy? I know eating alot of oil is bad, but my mom wont let me eat just plain veggies.
I also want a good work out plan. I have free time in the morning-evening (1/2 hour each). I REALLY want to have a diet and exercise plan.
Will exercising for an hour a day and cutting my calorie intake to 1300/day help me lose weight? How can I tone my thighs butt stomach and arms (esp. the first 3) What workouts can I do to tone them; By Sep I wanna look fine. HELP!

Yoga Wear Guru answers:

I learned a technique for speeding up the metabolism when I was 13-years-old. I read it somewhere, but I have forgotten where. The name of the technique is called “isometrics”. It is simply the flexing of muscles and holding them tense for a slow count of 15. Do this for about 20 minutes a day with the large muscles IE: the back, the stomach, the thighs and the upper arms. Tense up each muscle group as tight as possible and hold while counting to 15 very slowly and repeat this three times for each muscle. Practice proper breathing also and take a deep breath before each muscle contraction. When you are sitting watching TV, you can do this exercise. You will begin to see dramatic results in about three weeks. Just keep doing it every day and the fat will continue to burn off while the muscle firms up.

For the diet, increase your intake of fruits and vegetables and buy meats that are low in fat. Get rid of sodas and leave the sugar out of your tea and coffee. Drink lots of water.

Lisa asks…

okay a serious question about the difference between fat and muscle.?

I am female 5’7″ and weigh about 204 pounds. Now I honestly wear a size 12 in pants. A girl I work with is the exact same height as me weighs 4 pounds more than me and wears a size 18 pants. Does this make any sense.

I workout regularly and my cousin who weighs 170 pounds wears the same size clothes as I do!!

I don’t know what I should do about my weight. My mom who’s an RN told me that my ideal weight is 140 pounds for my height, but I don’t think I can get down to that. Please any advice. Is there a specialist that would be able to help me. I know I am not fat but I classified as obese.

Yoga Wear Guru answers:

Because you work out, your body is probably a much tighter shape than your coworker’s even though she’s only a tad bit heavier. I’m sure you know that muscle weighs more than fat, but in order to drop some weight, i’d increase the cardio when you go to work out. Those bmi scales that tell you your ‘ideal’ weight don’t consider muscle mass…they’re bogus. Shaq’s considered morbidly obese on those scales.

Donald asks…

GIRLS WHAT WOULD YOU THINK?

(i was raised with 5 sisters who are all VERY SWEET) just ondering what yall would think of me.

Yoga Wear Guru answers:

You seem like my kind of guy. I’m from down south Texas, and everyday there are cowboys. I love to ride horses. Your shopping style is cool too, I love all the name brands you listed. To be honest I’m a sucker for guys with blue’ish green eyes, I think eyes like yours are gorgeous. If you have a high respect for women, you would probably make me happy. If you were available, and you asked me out, I’d truly say yes in a heartbeat. I would immediately call you my boyfriend if we met. Your sixteen, I’m 15.
Nice to meet you, my name is Aileene! =)
Hope I helped

It started off when she made me take hormones to make me boobs become bigger but since i love her i did it, but months after she made me go into victoria secret and find my bra size which turn out to be 36C and she started to buy me bras and she made me wear them. 2 weeks after she started making me wear a bra, i woke up and all of my clothes were gone, she throw them out. Only thing in out home that i could wear was her clothes and i had to wear her victoria secret yoga pants and one of her t-shirts. She started to buy me my own women‘s clothing and now she makes sure i have to wear dresses to work with knee high boots. She make my wear make-up and she doesnt let me wear any kind of male clothing.

      I love to crossdress in women‘s clothes and I even try to workout like a female at the gym by doing pilates, yoga, and aerobics classes with the women, what would my ideal weight range be if I want to look like one of those cute girly girls, if I am 5’8? also I would appriciate any diet and workout advice from a female. I have pics at my website at www.flickr.com/photos/firefly711, you may have to manually type it in your web browser exactly as I have it listed here. Thanks for your input

      Yoga Wear Guru answers:

      I’m not a female, I am a cross-dresser & I just want to say that I think you look great dressed up like a female, I wish I looked as good as you do. I checked out your photos, added you as a friend on Flickr & I think you are height & weight are in the right range. But honestly, you are a beautiful woman & I’d love to dress-up & exercise with you too.

      Susan asks…

      Walgreen’s yoga pants?

      Anyone buy these? I saw the cutest pair in this week’s ad. Though once I went to the store and looked through their assortment of clothing – our store just had a pile of mostly sweatpants and some yoga pants. They didn’t look very good – not like in the picture. I guess “selection varies by store” is right. Anyone find any in their store that actually look good (like in the ad)? I found a similar pair on Old Navy’s website, but I actually liked the ones in the Wally’s ad better. The model was an Asian woman, and I am short and slim like that so I thought they might work for me too. Maybe I should try Walgreen’s again or is their stuff just bad news?

      Yoga Wear Guru answers:

      Although it’s a good store overall, their clothing isn’t that great(in my opinion). I was in there today and with the exception of maybe t-shirts, the quality is just not there. They make it look much better in their photo ads though!

      Sandra asks…

      Madonnas exercise and diet routine…?

      Any idea where I can find Madonna’s diet and exercise routines? I know she does a lot of pilates and yoga…but this woman has to do cardio and toning. I LOVE her body (and every other woman that has her body…you ladies are awesome!) and used to have one very similar.

      As I’ve gotten older over the years, I’ve noticed it’s harder to loss weight and/or tone up. My diet and exercise that has worked for me over the years has gotten me at the point that my body isn’t toning and I’m not losing the weight I gained (I got a “little” lazy for a while and gained about 10-15lbs. resulting in my clothes getting a little tighter and tighter over the months.) I just want to get a serious diet and exercise routine going that will get me the toned, athletic physique I once had.

      Typical exercise routine for me: (4-7 days a week)

      - 30min – 1hr of cardio consisting of running, steps, elliptical, and/or bike (I switch it up to keep it interesting…sometime I’ll run and do the steps…maybe I’ll run and do the bike instead)

      - Arms 3 sets of 15 for 3 different arm exercises and/or machines

      - Legs 3 sets of 15 for 4 different leg exercises and/or machines

      - 10 min of abs 2-3x a week

      - cool down of 10min of cardio

      Any ideas?
      Oh…and my diet…high protein, no salt (or very minimal), sugars only in fresh fruit, whole grains, low carbs…

      Typical day…

      Breakfast – 2 pieces of turkey bacon with 2 egg whites

      AM Snack – Banana or fruit and handful of peanuts (unsalted)

      Lunch – Salad with grilled chicken or tuna, no dressing or very little vinaigrette

      PM Snack (if any) – peanuts or fresh veggie sticks

      Dinner – anything consisting of chicken or ground turkey, usually paired with whole wheat pasta or fresh veggies

      After workout snack – popcorn (plain), yogurt, can of tuna, or sugar-free fruit popsicle

      Yoga Wear Guru answers:

      She said in an interview with Kidd Kraddick in the morning a while back that she usually does like an hour and half of just dancing in a hot hot room with her trainer.
