Tired of Diet and Exercise?

If you are tired of dieting and exercising then you have come to the right place. I am about to teach you how to stay healthy without having to change your life and without having to put yourself on a strict diet.  I have one simple rule, enjoy life. However, it is important to do the following things in order to achieve this enjoyment:
-Aerobic exercise: This is not running on the treadmill or outside, rather take a half hour walk every day, but make sure you are walking and not just barely moving. If you want, take 3 fifteen minute walks. The point is every day you should be active and keep yourself in shape.
-Anaerobic exercise: The most important thing is to build some muscles since the more muscle you have the more calories you burn. You don't have to become big and bulky, just lift weights for a half hour a day or every other day. For example, take a ten pound weight and lift it ten times in each arm 3 or 4 times, However many you can do. By building some muscle calories will be burning for nothing.

-Meals: Make sure to have a good breakfast, cereal that has fiber like shredded wheat is the best type of breakfast since it fills you up, it's healthy and it has fewer calories than most breakfasts. Skipping breakfast is foolish since that makes you hungrier later and you just end up eating more. For lunch, have a salad, or have a bagel with egg, just make sure it fills you up whatever you have. Snack if you want to, but don't eat too much, one chocolate bar between lunch and dinner is ok, but not more. A healthier snack, like a granola bar, you could have two of. Remember this is ok since you are walking  and lifting some weights to build muscles.  
-Try this out for a month and if you gain weight then I am wrong, but if you lose weight then I have helped you with minimal effort to you and if nothing changes what have you really lost?
