I have an umbilical hernia but am lifting weights as part of weight loss program is this ok?
doing pyramid with top dumbell weight of 20lb
no, it's not a good idea, wt lifting involves strengthening your core, and you already know you have a hernia. Repeated efforts at wt lifting will enlarge that hernia until it becomes a serious problem. Would suggest that you discuss a hernia repair with your doctor, or ask him what sort of exercises you can safely do.

How to Find the Right Weight Loss Plan
Picking a weight loss plan can be hard. There are so many to choose from and so much information to digest (no pun intended!). This article provides advice on how to select a diet plan that will work for you.
Knowing exactly what to look for when searching for weight loss exercise programs will help enable you to make a decision that will get you the results you're looking for.
First, if you're like many people, you probably want a free weight loss program. The thing to keep in mind though is that these are free for a reason. They are targeted towards the general public and as such, give such broad suggestions that while it may work for one person, it will not work for you. For example, if you are a 200 pound man and the free weight loss programs you are finding are more geared towards a 140 pound woman; you can see why this would obviously be problematic.
The first thing to ask yourself when you see a weight loss diet program is how personalized is it. I'm sure you've heard the saying that "General programs produce general results," which is very true. The more personalized and targeted the solution is to your individual situation, the higher your chance of consistent weight loss.
Next, ask whether it allows for enough calories to keep you from completely starving. It is very easy to fall into the trap of selecting a low calorie diet as a means to rapid weight loss. However, please do not take this approach as you will only put the weight back on and may even gain more weight.
You should aim to get rid of the fat, this does not happen by starving yourself. In fact you actually want to increase your metabolism to increase muscle and stop fat being stored, usually on your stomach.
Another component that you'll want to factor in is exercise. A proper fat loss workout regime has to contain two components, cardio exercise and lifting weights. Those weight loss exercise programs that have you doing hours of cardio on end are not going to be all that beneficial at retaining your lean muscle tissue mass, nor time efficiency.
Since, your lean muscle tissue is what keeps your metabolism the highest; it's what you really want to focus on the most. Neglecting this aspect of your workout is a huge mistake and does not maximize the 24 hours in a day you have to burn fat.
Finally, keep in mind that any weight loss program you go on you should be maintainable in the long run. A program that you're only able to maintain in the very short term is likely to not be overly beneficial as if lifestyle changes are not made with regards to how you're eating; chances are that the weight will be back at some point in the near future. Forget making a temporary change, you should strive to make a long term life style change.
