【在 S*********i 的大作中提到】 : not even 2 miles? are u serious?? : no way you can cut down weight this way... : triple the distance please, and do it every day then u get some hope.
Start with 3 miles , and work your way to 5 miles this summer. It's hard, but it's do-able. Meaning you can do it! If you ask speed, 11-14 minutes for 2500 is good.
You cannot do this in the long run. As we grow older, we lose muscle mass. The more we lose, the lower metabolism we will have. With extreme diet, baseline metabolism will decrease even more. For example, you may burn 1,600 calories per day without exercise now. With simple calorie control and no exercise, you may only burn 1,450 ten years later. Then you will reach a point, no matter how hard u try, how little you eat, you stay on plateau. That' why simple extreme diet control works for young girls only, because their baseline metabolism is at the peak of a lifetime.
