  2. First, we need to know a bit about you. Height and weight and your goals and so on. But I will still address your question even without that info, but bear with me it will be generalized. First, hold off there partner! You need to get your goal in your sights before you go running after it. Remember this simple rule. Calories in vs calories out = weight loss/weight gain. If you eat less calories than you burn, you generally lose. But if you are eating 2000 calories of garbage, you will maintain your weight despite the effort. You are what you eat, I cannot advocate that enough. Make sure your diet is strict, I cannot give you calories to go by since I know nothing about you. You can go to any website that offers a calorie calculator, use the number they give you as a basic idea, and modify it to your own needs. Now, running is a wonderful exercise to help build and strengthen your core (abs), but you need to add more diversity into your routine. Running 3 times a day might seem healthy, but doing so right before you eat everytime, might be hazardous to your goal. Your need to eat might be exaggerated instead of the need to hydrate, which could lead you to consume more food in the long run and less water. I think it would be better if you could personalize yourself a workout including cardio and weight work. Cardio will get the fat off, and the weight work will keep the muscle in shape and tone you nicely. You will not turn into Arnold if you use weights, so get that myth out of your head now. Mass like his (and Ronnie Coleman) comes with extensive training, which you would never come close to doing in an hour. Stay away from diet sodas, they have extra sodium you can do without, and aspartame induces hunger. So be wary. If you could please post more info about yourself, I would love to help out further!!!
  3. Marianne's answer is excellent, but I would emphasize that running three times a day for thirty minutes each is counter productive if you are trying to lose weight. Running is an impact exercise. Folks who run for 90 minutes aren't trying to lose weight-- they've already lost weight. That's how their bodies can withstand the impact. If you are carrying extra weight and you run like that, you are going to hurt your knees, ankles, hamstrings, groin, lower back and possibly your shoulders. You'll feel good for a few weeks, and then you'll really be in pain. The worst part is that you might not achieve 100% recovery. These types of injuries are aggrivated by exercise and take a long time to heal. Assuming you run approximately 3.5 to 5 miles in thirty minutes, you should run no more than four times a week if you are over your "athletic" weight. If you want to exercise every day (which is excellent-- good motivation!!), you should certainly mix in some low impact cardio (EFX, cycling, etc.) into your routine. It adds diversity to your workout, which in turn will give you a better workout. I am also assuming that you mean 2000 to 2100 calories intake. Yes, you will lose weight, but you will also lose muscle mass. Here's my suggestion for a seven day workout if you are looking to lose no more than 15 pounds: day 1: run 30 to 40 minutes (easy pace / moderate breathing); walk 10 minutes day 2: low impact exercise for 30 minutes (85% of target heart rate); circuit training for 15 minutes day 3: low impact warm up for 10 minutes (60% of target); circuit training for 30 minutes day 4: run for 30 to 40 minutes (easy to moderate pace); walk for 10 minutes day 5: low impact exercise for 20 minutes; circuit training for 20 minutes day 6: run for 45 minutes (easy pace); brisk walk for 20 minutes day 7: rest listen to your body. if you are in pain while you run, switch to low impact and decrease your times. good luck.
