Make sure that the salads include some quality form of protein: chicken, tuna, etc. Lose any bad eating habits (generally, restrict simple/processed
carbohydrate intake, focus on vegetable consumption, have some fruit, include adequate protein, consume enough essential fat).
As far as exercise goes, have her focus on compound, freeweight exercise. Try a good whole body workout (using just five or six exercises that address all major muscle groups) three times a week. For fat loss, arobics are secondary to diet and
resistance training (and certainly should not be considered a reasonable solution to fat-loss
without diet and resistance training).
