Honestly, for losing weight, I think cardio is better. 30 minutes of running or any intense cardio like jumping jacks is awesome! When you have more time, you can get some light weights (like a 5 pound set) and add in weight lifting. Bi cep curl, tri cep curl and chest fly to start. For lets, if you do squats and lunges, that is using your body weight to strength train and create resistance. My son does an intense strength conditioning class and they mostly use their own body weight. Push ups are great. So, you can add maybe 50 squats, 25 lunges per leg and start with 3 sets of 10 push ups 2 or 3 times a week and you've started strength training. This will help boost your metabolism. Add more later. When you have the time.
Food, morning can be something like thin wheat toast with low sugar peanut butter on it, yogurt with fruit, oatmeal. Lunch can be a salad. Heavy on vegetables. I started putting uncooked broccoli and cauliflower, red and green peppers, carrots in all my salads. I add cabbage too. Then my lettuce. I might add some hard boiled egg for protein and light on dressing. I may eat a low salt, light soup for lunch, etc. I then have a dinner that I may cut myself some slack as I have a family and we all eat together and I may make one of their favorites but usually, I try to do a lean dinner such as a piece of fish, quinoa and a steamed vegetable. Or I might make chicken breasts with a salad. Or stuff peppers with a chicken black bean mixture and put low salt tomato sauce on it, baked peppers. When I was single and busy, I'd make a low fat/calorie soup and eat it for a few days. Snacks are things like fruit or carrots and hummus, cut up whole wheat tortillas dipped in salsa or guacamole, etc.
Just make some small changes and even that will add up! Let us know how you are doing!
Thanks both of you... I am really seeking for such type of appropriate response.... I'll start doing these exercise.. starting up with 15 mints. N will take care of mine diet too..

Which is more helpful to me resistance training or anything else..?? Or a 30 min running is enough to burn my fat or I need to do some squats or jumping jacks..?? Plz help
I agree with paxiled. I never believed this myself until recent years. I would exercise and exercise but always maintained the same weight when I'd like to have weighed less. Then a fitness instructor told me that most of our physique is our diet. So, I cleaned up my diet. That WITH exercise made the difference. You do need to exercise though to stay toned, help with the weight control and overall health (heart, brain, everything is better with exercise). So, first, think about your diet. The first thing I did was think of trigger food or food that just added nothing that would make a difference if I cut it out. I stopped drinking all pop/soda/coke. I cut out sweets during the week (I have a sweet tooth), I cut out any type of convenience or fast food (which I love, bring on the greasy burger and fries!), and processed things like chips or crackers. Once I did that, eating healthier overall was easier and things that didn't sound delicious before started to taste better. And things that had a lot of sugar or salt didn't taste as good anymore. My palette literally changed. (although I do still love a burger and fries but rarely have it). Eat a salad where you'd have had something less healthy at lunch. Every small change you make each day will add up.
As to exercise, start by doing simple things . . . instead of an elevator or escalator, take the stairs. Things like that. And then set a goal. Maybe 30 minutes of physical activity a day is realistic. It doesn't have to be all at one time. 15 minutes in the morning and 15 minutes at night or whatever. And make it brisk activity--- go for a brisk walk, run in place, do jumping jacks, etc. Whatever, just get your heart rate up. I like music, I like to dance. That's exercise (even if it isn't pretty to watch me do it). I figure that every minute extra that I'm doing physical activity is more than I did yesterday so better for me. When I was trying to run, I'd start at say a 15 minute run. It felt like work. It was hard. I'd increase it by ONE minute only and do that for a few days. Then I'd increase it by another minute. Building up. They always say though, when it comes to exercise, to find what you enjoy. If you hate something, don't do it. I loathe stationary bikes. Not sure why but I feel every second painfully pass when on a stationary bike. So, guess what? I don't do it. I have plenty of other options so I don't have to do the one I don't like. I also try to life weights at least two times a week but for me, it's incorporated in an exercise class. I like group fitness classes.
So, you are busy in school but there has to be a few minutes in the day to exercise. Do you have any buddies you can ask to be your work out partner? You work out together or even just talk about it holding each other accountable? That can help too.
Anyway, let us know how it goes!
Your main problem probably isn't exercise, it's your diet -- fat in the belly and thighs suggests you're eating too much simple carbohydrate, such as sugar, white flour, and the like. When we consume a diet that is too high in foods that metabolize quickly into sugar, it usually stores as fat in the belly area first. As for exercise, any exercise will help, as it will increase your energy output and burn off more of what you're eating. Aerobic exercise can burn it off with less work, whereas resistance training can turn some of it into muscle. Given your situation, it really doesn't matter what you do, you just need to start doing something, and you need to take a good look at your diet and see how you can change it -- one example would be eat roti, usually whole grain, rather than naan, white flour, just as an example. The exercise will also give you more energy and focus for your studies. If you truly truly don't have time and your medical exams are coming soon, you can start after you finish your exams. The weight loss should be slow and steady, not using some extreme diet or uppers to speed it along -- permanent changes to your diet will make permanent changes to your metabolism and keep the weight off. Good luck on your exams.
