5’6 and overweight?

Question

I’m 20 and 170lbs. My doctor ASSURES me that I’m an “average” weight but I have basically 0 muscle And I go to the gym 3-4 times a week! I run on a treadmill until I want to puke! Everyone in my family is seriously obese and my aunts can’t have kids do to obesity related health issues. I want to be fit and healthy before I get pregnant, but I don’t feel that way at my current weight, even though my doctor assured me I am. Any suggestions? Am I crazy?

Answer

Start weight training if your goal is to build some muscle. Cut down on the cardio. Running until you want to puke doesn’t even sound fun so kudos to you for being able to maintain that. You’ll have no excuse for losing motivation to do something many people struggle to maintain discipline with.

Answer

I’m 5,4 and 156.2 lbs I’m sure ur fine

Answer

Do a mix of cardio and weight training.

Answer

You’re not a lot ‘overweight’ it’s 40 pounds I believe. I used to be 180 I’m 5’6 also. 
I’ve been at 220 now because I got pregnant and never lost the weight even with breastfeeding. It’s my fault for that cause of how I eat. Now I’m at 210. 
You shouldn’t be on a treadmill until you wanna puke, that’s not good. 30 minutes is enough. Start by Walking then slowly each day you can walk faster. Walk at incline, that helped me. Then go to a bike maybe, I only do 15. So 45 total of cardio. 
Then make sure you’re eating good. Try ‘myplate.gov’ to know how much of fruits, grains, veggies you should have. You put in your age, height and weight and then it’ll say your calorie goal, then scroll down to the table and click on what number it said, it’ll show the portions. 😬😬😬😬😬
