It is fairly simple to do:
5 minute warm up at 50%
1 minute at 90%
2 minutes at 70%
1 minute at 90%
2 minutes at 70%
1 minute at 90%
2 minutes at 70%
1 minute at 90%
2 minutes at 70%
1 minute at 90%
2 minutes at 70%
5 minute cool down at 50%
you can start at 3 intervals and work your way up to the full 5. This will take you a total of 25 minutes and will shoot your caloric burn through the roof.
With this I agree with Dyna Mo, increase your fiber intake, swap your breads and pastas for whole wheat, but read the packages and make sure there aren't a bunch of hidden crap in there like HFCS. Many brands say whole wheat and then sneak shit like that in there. So read the labels. There are high fiber versions of whole wheat bread, whole wheat tortilla's, etc.

Simple my ass hahaha I'm gonna need a cheat sheet to remember it but I will try it for sure. In three months I want to start doing more fun activities such as martial arts or outdoor sports but for now I need to build up my strength.
