Fast To Lose Weight

Difficult question, isn't it? I know many people will now come up with stuff like, "naaaw, just eat less and you'll lose weight". Thin people like saying stuff lie that, but we know better. Eating four cheeseburgers instead of five, will not really promote weight loss, it muight only slow down the process of gaining weight a tiny bit, but that's all. If you want to lose weight, you need a strategy.

So what am I talking about? Atkins? Well if you wanna lose weight slowly, to gain it all back very quickly, then the atkins diet is definitely the way to go for you, but not if you want to lsoe weight fast and for good. You need a good diet meal plan.

Now there are a ton of diet meal plans available out there, but most of them are junk. So how do you know a good diet meal plan when you see one? Good meal plans are always low carb. Don't let anyone tell you, that there are high carb meal plans to lose weight out there, because there aren't. The good meal plans are always low carb.

The second aspect, you should watch out for is the metabolic aspect. There are several nutrients and nutrial combinations, that are able to speed up your metabolism, so that it is able to burn fat faster, than usual even in situations in which you eat stuff like cheeseburgers and french fries. There are quick diets and long term diets, that are able to increase your metabolism, but what you have to watch out for is a good combination of proteine and carbohydrate.

Very one-sided meal plans can help you lose weight, but you'll gain it all back after you stop. The atkins diet is a good example for that. You don't get any carbohydrate on the atkins diet, but you can have as much proteine as you want, so you end up eating chicken only, without anything else, but as much of it as you want. As soon as you achieve your goal, you'll wanna have a slice of bread to your chicken and BAM - you gain everything back in weeks. This shows you, that one-sided diets are not, what you're looking for if you wanna achieve sustainable results, so watch out for diet plans, that contain every nutrient, that your body needs in a good combination.

A good way to start losing weight, is to just start having proteines and only proteines for breakfast. This way you might not be able to lose weight, but at least, you can eat up to 2500 carbs a day without gaining weight, if you just stick to this plain and simple rule. Your breakfast should look like this to create a good fundament for losing weight: two, or three eggs for breakfast. Eggs only, nothing else. You can prepare them in any way you want, you just have to be careful to not eat anything else but eggs for breakfast. During the day you can just eat, what you eat usually. Have a look at the effect after about two weeks - you'll be surprized!

So keep the rules in mind, when you look for a good diet meal plan:

1. Your weight loss meal plan has to be low-carb

2. One-sided diet plans like the atkins diet, will show good results, but they're not gonna last.

3. No permanent diets - weight loss diets, that are planned to go for more, than a couple of months are usually not effective.

I hope these information help you find the right diet plan for yourself.

    How to lose weight healthy, but also really fast?
    I'm not fat, but I am 20 lbs over weight, and I have bulky pars, not m-oobs, but still chub, and I want it to get lost fast, cuz is really annoying me.

    I have a slower metabolism, and I have been fat all of my life. I am thirteen, and I want too lose it.

    How can a buysy person that dosn't have alot of time for anything, lose weight fast?

    • ANSWER:
      Try this, you'll see and feel results in 2-3 days. The muscle will outweigh the fat so don't let the scale discourage you :)

      For exercise, try switching it up (Monday work on arms, Tuesday work on stomach, Wednesday work on legs, Thursday Rest, Friday Arms, Saturday Stomach, Sunday Legs) though you can choose your own schedule/plan. Try maybe using different machines for stomach or legs or arms so your body doesn't get used to it. Also, try increasing the amount of exercise you do every week.

      For eating, try portion control (70% of your diet is food intake but exercise is also important) eating the serving size and if there is no designated serving size, 1cup if it's a meal and 1/2 a cup if it's a snack.

      Breakfast- Whenever you choose
      Drink of choice- hour after breakfast (all other drinks being water; one cup of drink of choice)
      Lunch- 1hr after Drink of choice
      Snack- 1/2 cup, 1 hour after lunch
      Dinner- 2 hours after snack

      It doesn't matter WHAT you eat unless you're on a specific diet such as Atkins, it's mostly just How MUCH we take in and how OFTEN we take it in. I have problems with over-eating and I'll eat an ice cream, oh I want another and it's not b/c I'm hungry it's b/c I have a craving for it and it feels like I can't wait. Also, eating out of boredom, try drinking water often to prevent hunger. I also have this problem and especially when I'm exercising. (Try buying a treadmill or a few exercising supplies or maybe you can get a gym subscription) and bring with you in an insulated glass/mug full of ice b/c I always and alot of other people always want a little something to feel like their eating or munching on and this is perfect b/c it's hydrating and you get the little munch out of it.
      Also, how I said about buying some equipment or gym subscription, I'd recommend you buy your own that way you pay a little extra and the rest is free not 1/2 the price every month or whatever. Try buying about the things (one for legs, one for stomach, one for legs and maybe as you get more into, you could add more). Also, if you lift weights try increasing the amount of weight each weeks or two. :)
      Hope this helps! Good luck!
      Also, calculate your intake so you know how much to work towards burning plus extra for the muscle :)

      I'm twelve and this has always worked for me b/c I have a fat gene and I always maintained my weight and lost it if I got off track :

      You can also view this clip below about losing weight, I'm sure It will help you as well since it also served me in losing weight. It is very impressive and very speedy effect.

  6. QUESTION:
    How can i lose weight fast?
    ok so i am well over 100 pounds over weight , I am looking to lose this weight fast cause i need to lower my blood pressure and cholestorol and i would like suggestions on how to do it .
    should i do a liquid diet ? has anyone tried that ?
    im 26 female
    thanks guys . and i know that its not healthy to lose fast but im already not healthy so..

    • ANSWER:
      Hi! I'm glad you are determined to lose weight, good job! Determination is half the success :)

      Now, I have the same problem as you few years back.
      The first thing you should know : DO NOT GO ON A DIET

      It does not work! It'll only make you gain more weight. Trust me, it's proven all over the world

      Number two: BE CAREFUL OF WHAT YOU EAT
      Foods that are high in sugar or fats should not be taken at all!
      examples: fast food, chips, sweets, canned drinks.

      take a look at this pyramid:
      http://web.mit.edu/athletics/sportsmedicine/Food%20Pyramid.JPG

      Take food which only belong to the Bread, Cereal group, Vegetable group, and Fruits group
      Meat eggs and milk yoghurt group can be taken, but not all the time. Probably 4 times a week.

      DO NOT TAKE OIL SWEET GROUP! NO WAY!

      Number three: EAT LESS, EAT MORE TIMES
      you can eat up to 5-6 meals a day, BUT each meal is a small amount.
      Eat less in quantity, more in frequency. This is very very effective.

      Number four: NEVER EVER TOUCH SLIMMING PILLS
      this pills are very very damaging to your health, please do not take them!

      Number five: TAKE FOOD WHICH HELPS LOWER BLOOD PRESSURE & CHOLESTEROL
      a good food that helps you lower your BP is GRREN APPLE JUICE
      but remember, do not take in large amounts on a regular basis, it can cause dizziness.
      take about 3 times a week, a cup full will do.

      Number five: DO NOT EAT 3 HOURS BEFORE YOU SLEEP
      this is a BIG NO NO. your body is not capable of processing your food properly while you are asleep. they will turn into fats.

      Number six: EXERCISE
      exercise at least 4 times a week, at least 60 minutes per time

      suitable exercises: http://allwomenstalk.com/10-top-exercises-to-lose-weight/

      instead of spending money on useless slimming pills, you can hire a personal trainer to set your exercising schedule and monitor you.

      Number seven: BE DETERMINED
      BE DETERMINED! do not cave into temptation when you see fast food, chips, cookies, sweets, etc etc. Do not touch them! Always persevere to the end!

      Number eight: SUPPORT FROM FAMILIES & FRIENDS
      Psychology plays a big part too. You'll be more efficient with moral support from friends or families. You'll be motivated to do better :)

      Stick to the eight steps strictly and you'll notice results in no time, lady :)
      Remember, determination is half the success! You've already succeed half-way! Do not give up and keep on persevere till the end :)

      Good luck!

    What's a fast way to lose some weight?
    Well ahhhh i am about 5ft 7in and weight around 126-130 lb and it constantly keeps going up to 130 if i evn eat a little too much how can i lose some weight or at least to keep it somewhere around 125lb ? I want me to be around 115-120lb though. I especially wanna lose some fat in my legs any suggestions?? O.O THANK YOU EVERYONE ;3

    • ANSWER:
      Try the Atkins diet! I've been on it for about 2 and a half months now (I've turned it into a lifestyle change), lost 21lbs, and never felt better. I'm 5'10, started out at 192lbs and am now 171lbs. I'm literally 6lbs away from my goal in just 2 and a half months :)
      Our bodies are capable of living without carbohydrates or other various forms of sugar so what this diet does is cut them out. For the first 2 weeks, you don't eat any carbs.
      Some examples of carbs are:
      Bread of any sort
      Pasta
      Desserts of any kind
      Fruit (complex sugars)
      Basically for the first two weeks, you're living off of meat, cheese, eggs, and vegetables. You can get this thing called "Induction Flu" where you'll feel tired, fatigue, irritable, and nausiated but it passes about 3-7 days after you begin. It seems rough at first, but after 2 weeks, you start reintroducing carbs back into your body and now suddenly, you're full faster. You don't want as much food as before...even you might find out you're gluten intolerant.
      A ton of my friends say I look great and I've never felt so confident and good so maybe you should check this out :)

  13. QUESTION:
    what should i be eating to lose weight fast and effective?
    i am currently trying to lose weight. i am working out 4 to 6 days a week. i have 50 pounds to lose, and need help in the food department that will compliment my workout for fast weight loss.

    • ANSWER:
      Ok. Cut you workouts to 4 days a week. Change your workout routine every 3 weeks. STOP eating bread of all kinds. Our bodies aren't meant for those items. Not white or wheat, etc. If you crave it then make some uncle bend brown rice. Grilled, baked, broiled chicken breast, tilapia, salmon. No shrimp, it has too much cholesterol. Eat all green veggies. Veggies should be the main dish on your plate and meats should only be a side. No regular potatoes, only sweet potatoes. No soda at all. Just water with fresh lemon. Always drink a glass or 2 of room temp water when you wake up along with a whey protein shake. Need any more suggestions email me at chicitydetail@gmail.com. I hope this helps

I also want toned..see my boyfrind went to basic training for the military and I want to look extra good for his graduation. Please Help! Thanks..:-)

    • ANSWER:
      If you want a simple answer then the key is in restricting your carbohydrates and creating a deficit in your daily calorie intake versus expenditure. The only carbs that you should eat are whole grain foods and vegetables and none in the evening. but.......and there is a big but...................

      Losing that much weight so quickly is not only dangerous but it is also counter productive in the long run. As soon as you start eating carbs again your metabolism will have slowed down so much during your fasting period that you will blow up. Unless you are 100% certain you can avoid carbs forever then complete restriction of carbs is NOT recommended. Many no carb diets will see people lose 10lbs or so in the first few weeks but don't be fooled thinking this is fat...it isn't! It's most water weight. Your body stores 3oz of water for every gram of carbs it consumes.

      The best you can do to facilitate fat loss, is intense brief exercise such as sprinting or resistance training....doing hours of cardio is hopeless no matter what you've read....and having a well balanced and healthy diet. Lots of protein and good healthy carbs such as salad, whole grain foods and green vegetables. Drinking as much water as you can is also imperative.

      When resistance training focus on using heavy weights but under complete control. Eliminate momentum by taken four seconds to both raise and lower your weight. Only do one to two sets per body part and focus of compound movements such as squats and chest presses. Take your sets to failure and this will trigger your body to produce and release more growth hormone. Growth hormone is a key component of fat loss. And don't worry! you won't get all muscular!

      And for all those people here talking about "toning" rather than building muscle...ignore it. There is no such thing as "toning" you can only build muscle and burn fat...two things..."toning" muscle is a made up fallacy. Doing light weights and lots of reps is completely pointless. It's very hard to build muscle especially for a woman so do not be afraid of the heavy weights....it is the only thing that will force your body to change the way you want it to.

      Good luck.

  16. QUESTION:
    How can I lose weight fast?
    I'm 16 and want to lose weight, but not gain muscle. I'm an transsexual and I want a more "skinny/feminine" body shape. I'm overweight and I want to lose fast. I don't like my body and I want to change it. I don't want nothing to kill me though, but I'm almost willing to do anything. Please help. Oh, and please don't leave any ignorant or negative/rude remarks. I'm being serious and I want to change the way I look.

    • ANSWER:
      If you want to lose weight, you need to two things: eat less and exercise more. Weight gain happens when you create a calorie surplus (eat more than you burn). Your body takes the excess calories and converts them to fat which get stored around your stomach, arms and thighs. The longer you remain in a calorie surplus, the more weight you'll gain. To lose that weight, you need to do the opposite. You need to create a calorie deficit (start eating less than you burn).

      Your first step is to figure out how many calories you burn on a daily basis. Use a calorie calculator - http://calorieneedscalculator.com The number you get from this tool is what your body burns on a daily basis. To lose weight, simply eat less. It sounds a lot easier than it is but making small changes helps you adjust to a new lifestyle. Don't think of this as a diet, think of it as a new life. Instead of eating foods high in sugars, white flour and saturated fat, go with fruits, vegetables, whole wheats, fish, lean meats, nuts and beans. In addition to eating less, you also need to exercise more. Start off at 1-2 times per week and work your way up to 3-5 times per week.

      Don't make all of these changes at once or you won't be able to properly adjust to them. Generally, eating healthier foods will decrease your calorie intake. Compare a doughnut to an apple and you'll see that healthy foods are lower in calories. You can find some more information at the Straight Health Forums - http://forums.straighthealth.com

      Maybe you should try carb blockers. I think they block the first 500 carbs you eat. Try also drinking 10oz of water before you eat. Eat six small healthy meals a day with water. The address to buy the carb blockers is www.shoptga.com from there go to edibles and then vitamins and supplement - supplements I hope this helps.

  20. QUESTION:
    Has anyone tried water fasting to lose weight fast?
    I'm getting married in 2 weeks and I'm planning on going on a water fast to lose between 10 and 20lbs in 10 days. It is healthy and will cleanse my body and will make me feel more beautiful on my wedding day. I just wanted to know if anyone has tried this and what your results were. Thankyou in advance for all your answers!
    the hollywood diet is basically the same thing as juice fasting which is usually done for 30 days. Water fasting is only recommended for 10 days. And it cleanses your body of all toxins. death by water fasting is very rare but thankyou for your concern.

    • ANSWER:
      Hey I just went off a water fast. Honestly, it was very draining - mentally and physically. I only lasted about 5 days. My body did feel clean however. I was tired all of the time and I couldn't concentrate on school work. I would recommend you not go on the water fast just because you should be happy and alive on your wedding...not grumpy and tried, like you will be if you fasted. BUT if you're dead set on doing it, it would be a lot easier if you didn't do anything too mentally straining, stressful, because it'll only add on to the stress you'll feel from not eating. Maybe it would be easier for you to go on a liquid diet -- not just water. Oh I lost about five pounds, mostly water weight. Whatever you decide to do, hope you get the results you want :]

    • ANSWER:
      1. First start by getting up earlier than usual. Around 5:30 AM to do some of you workouts. Getting up early shocks your metabolism because the body needs more energy to get going. Right? This will start your system on the road to weight loss. That early start with about 10 minutes of stretching. Have a cup of coffee to get the blood going also.

      2. Do all the sit-ups you can. Just do them. 15 or 20 whatever, we don't have a lot of time to work with. Rest 1 minute repeat, do this for 6 sets. Already you are breathing hard and feel worn, because the body is working extra hard at being up earlier and then going right into exercise. If the early morning hour lets you get your cardio in, go ahead and do it. 30 minutes.

      3. Diet. Cut all current meal portions in half, just cut them in half, nothing fancy or complicated, CUT IN HALF! Cut out all bread products, all gravies, candies, chips, night snacks, etc. If you crave at night eat a banana, other fruit or best a non-fat yogurt. There are some tasty ones out there.

      4. In the evening do another 6 sets of sit-ups maxing out each set. Cardio again. The trick is to stay with getting up earlier. Yes it’s hard, that’s why it is so effective. Why do you think the Army gets up so early, it is intense training to the max.

  22. QUESTION:
    How fast can you lose weight without it being unhealthy?
    This winter break, I am planning on making a strong effort to lose weight. For all who are wondering, the break will be 6 weeks long.

    Here is what I am planning to do:
    -Eat a very reasonable diet.
    -Take protein supplements.
    -Drink lots of water.
    -Ride my bike for an hour or two a day.
    -Go to the gym Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and do some anaerobic exercise to build lean muscle.

    Would this be unhealthy? I have a feeling I will lose weight rather quickly, but a friend told me that losing weight fast is almost as unhealthy as being overweight in the first place. Is my plan unreasonable?

    Thoughts?

    • ANSWER:
      Start doing that before the break, start out slow, it will take a while for your body to get accustomed to all the changes. Starving yourself is just as bad as burning off all the calories you ate that day, just make sure you get 1200 calories a day, and ride your bike for an hour maybe, two seems a bit extreme for now, especially if you're coming out of an inactive lifestyle. Your friend is right, just don't go overboard with the exercising. If your body goes into starvation mode you could easily gain all the weight back as fast as you lost it. Good luck!

  23. QUESTION:
    How can you lose weight fast and healthy?
    I have tried to lose weight before a few times, and it never works for me like at all. I don't know what to do, but I want to lose weight fast, and healthy. I wanna lose like a lot of weight in a few months because I am fat and I am impatient.Does anyone have ideas or tips?

    • ANSWER:
      Studies prove that people who lose weight quickly are more likely to gain it back.

      It shocks your body, and it can screw up your metabolism permanently to make gaining weight easier and losing weight harder... giving you something to struggle with all of your life.

      If you make "fast" a more important factor than "permanent," you are going to screw yourself badly.

      Losing weight is more of a mental battle than a physical one. If you really want to be successful, you have to battle your impatience before you can change your habits.

      And fact is, the only way to lose weight and keep it off is to change your habits--- forever. To learn to make better choices about exercising and eating healthier. Because if you ever change back to your old habits, your cells will gladly gain all that weight back.

      So what does it matter how long it takes? As long as you change your lifestyle to healthier habits, you will take it off and keep it off.

      find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
      eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours)
      5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
      8 glasses of water
      have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
      have lean meat (protein) for dinner - repairs muscle
      cardio exercise 4-6 times a week for 30-50min, light weight training
      dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, past etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried, oily.
      ofcourse you can spoil yourself once in a while with a little treat:)

But i want to lose it fast, cause i'm getting fitted for my dress (im one of the bridesmaids) in a couple of months, and if i keep losing it gradually, i'll have to keep bringing the dress back for adjustments. I'm not overweight, im 5'3 and i weigh 62 kilo's. Its just that the dress is going to be tight and i wanna lose weight around my hips and stomach.. anyone know how i can do this fast?

    • ANSWER:
      Below site has slow ways to lose weight but specializes in fastest ways to lose weight. Takes off bodyfat, water retention and 3rd thing which is a trick used by models and dancers right before an event with instructions. You can share it with the bride. This trick gives you a flatter stomach and a temporary loss of 5 to 20 pounds in an hour. Is this fast enough for you?

      Right before fitting take an enema to get out those 5 to 20 pounds of waste. They come back after a day and a half but site has ways to minimize how much comes back. Then right before wedding do it again to temporarily look better than normal. After learning about it, I wondered if Britney Spears does this before making an appearance or music video. Well you have seen photos of celebrities at events looking great but also on street looking not so great. Mae West used to take an enema every morning.

  30. QUESTION:
    How do you lose weight fast and effectively?
    I was wanting to go on a fasting diet but i don't no how. I thought it might be a good way to lose weight if i only eat like one time a day. I want to lose weight fast because i think my weight is making me depressed. I lost 20 pounds over the summer but now that its fall/winter again i'm afraid to gain it all back and i would still like to lose more. I'm not skinny at all. I am about 190 pounds and just want to lose it. Thank you.

    • ANSWER:
      Dont go on a fasting diet. It may not be the best method. It can wreck your metabolism.

      here's what you can do

      1. Based on your age, figure out your Basic Metabolic Rate- you can do this easily online.

      2. Your goal must be to aim for 500-750 (not more) calorie deficit each day through a combination of a good healthy diet and exercise

      3. Eat your breakfast. Research shows that breakfast eaters lose more weight than those who do not.

      4. Eat 4 -5 meals spaced out at intervals of 3-4 hours each day. This keeps your metabolism chugging well throughout the day.

      5. Once every week, do a high calorie or a high carb day. Give into your cravings, have that pizza slice. just to give your body a break from the dieting and help you to stay on the wagon.

      6. Exercise is must, if you want to keep the weight off and not just be subject to the yo yo diet syndrome. Cardio and Weight training - both forms of exercise must be included.

      Again here, dont overdo the diet and skip the exercise. Our bodies are very smart. If they dont get enough food- presuming you go on a very low cal diet, our body tends to think that we are starving. Our metabolism goes down, the body then trys to hang on for dear life to the fat in our body. The exact opposite of what we aim for.

      So eat well. Exercise well. Stay committed and you will melt that fat away.

      Cheers!

  31. QUESTION:
    How can i lose weight fast but without dieting?
    I want to lose weight fast but I don't wana get on a diet. Does anyone have any tips?

    • ANSWER:
      Hi,

      I understand you are dealing with the same problem I have been dealing with since lats year. What I have learned is that xou need to find well structured diet. And that diet program should answer to some questions:

      - Which foods you may think are helping you lose weight (but are actually causing you to gain weight)?
      - Which Carbs, Proteins, and Fats are the best to eat for maximum fat loss?
      - How to regulate specific hormones to cause fat burning in your body?
      - Exactly which strategies will never work when it comes to weight loss?

      Weight loss programs seems so easy to find on the web, but actually it's not, since half of them are scams or stupid. If you wish I can share with you my prefered diet program, I am experiencing some good results with it, perhaps it might help you also...

      Good luck!

    • ANSWER:
      When you are losing weight, you should exercise and diet together.
      If you exercise without dieting, you will get bigger appetite, which
      will lead to increase of weight, or muscle grow
      underneath the fat layer, and make you bulkier. If you diet without
      exercising, you will become flabby and will have excess skin. For
      diet, go wheat free. No pasta, pizza, bread and so on. And no food
      after 7 p.m. People achieve marvellous results with it. Depending on
      your initial weight, you can drop upwards from 20 pounds a month. If
      you don't eat wheat then you don't eat all those sticky, fatty goey
      cakes, you don't eat junk food, and you don't eat biscuits. But your
      diet is still balanced. It costs nothing, and you do not have to
      calculate points or to buy special meals or plans. For exercising,
      start with walking, and then switch to running/jogging. Running is the
      most efficient and calorie-burn exercise ever. If you are overweight a
      lot, walk first or you may have health complications (heart attack,
      disjointed bones and so on). Weight lifting is a good means to target
      your problem areas for men and women. It's not necessarily to become a
      bodybuilder or even join a gym - a couple of dumbbells will help you
      to target your problem areas (stomach, butt, legs, arms, chest).

    How to lose weight fast without a harsh diet?
    I am 168cm tall and 60kg. I like my curves and I know I'm not fat, but I don't like my fat thighs and I have a little fat on my stomach, which is why I want to lose weight. Do you think I need to lose weight? If I lose weight would my breasts go smaller? How can I lose weight as fast, healthy and permanent as possible? (other than diet pills and stuff like that)

    • ANSWER:
      The most effective exercise for losing weight is cardio, specifically running or jogging. As for diet, depending on your age and metabolism, it may not take much diet. Just cut back on obviously fattening items like soda (which has no nutritional value), Fast food, etc. Of course, eating out is acceptable bi-weekly or even weekly, depending on where you go. Lastly, on top of running at least 2 times a week, target the areas that you want to lose weight in with excersises.

      PS - Your breast may reduce in size, but not dramatically and will be more shapely

    • ANSWER:
      1.Hire a substitute teacher. Don’t reach for the brands you know and love immediately – or without thinking first. Eggs are “good” for you, but consider using egg substitutes instead (in fact, many restaurants will let you order lower calorie foods). There are countless “lower” alternatives for you to try. If something different doesn’t taste good, by all means – find a better substitute, or eat less of the original. In some cases, the substitute may be worse for you than the regular version of the product. The good news is, healthier choices are silently replacing their “normal” counterparts – and they taste just as nice.

Drink plenty of water, fruit juices & fat free milk. Snack on lots of RAW fruit & veggies. Get up one hour early every morning & take a BRISK 30 minute walk - then - do the same thing again in the evening after dinner. Make sure you eat a good, balanced breakfast daily. You get your energy for the day from your breakfast meal. Get a good 8 hours sleep each nite. Flip your mattress over so it will level out to give you a good nite's rest. As time permits, work in sit ups, push ups, pull ups & skipping rope. Within 90 days you will be amazed.

  39. QUESTION:
    How to lose weight fast if you are an extremely picky eater?
    I'm am 14 years old and want to lose a little weight about 10 pounds. I am an extremely picky eater so I don't like vegetables and fruits that much and a little meat. I don't eat seafood or Mexican food. I was wondering if anyone could help me find some good ideas of how to lose weight fast

    • ANSWER:
      You can't. You can't lose weight eating only foods you want and the list seems to include unhealthy foods only.
      80% of weight loss is diet.
      You can eat a healthy diet and lose weight.
      You can eat a healthy diet and exercise and lose more weight.
      You can exercise and eat a poor diet and not lose and even gain weight.
      A good healthy diet high in fiber, lean meats, eggs, complex carbohydrates, whole grains, antioxidant foods, healthy beverages and low in added sugar and salt help people lose weight, lower cholesterol, increase energy, improve brain function, lower blood pressure, reduce cancer risk and have a more positive lifestyle!
      You need to eat a lot more food and a lot more fiber!
      Diets that exclude foods from any food group are fad diets and do not lead to permanent weight loss or solve any other health issues.
      First, try to kick your fiber intake to 40 grams of both soluble and insoluble fiber.
      Whatever you do, get your fiber from your food, not from a jar.
      Fruits and vegetables have good fiber in them. A high fiber diet increases the metabolism.
      Try a breakfast cereal with at least 20% of recommended daily allowance of fiber in it. They are usually low in sugar so there is a double benefit. Blueberries or raspberries on top add more fiber and antioxidants. But fresh or frozen, not the kind in syrup.
      Raw nuts are a great source of fiber, healthy fats, and antioxidants. Avocados are the best.
      Lots of beans, peas, and grains are high fiber. Whole grain breads. Fiber kicks up the metabolism so you actually burn more calories. These foods will give you more gas in the beginning but if eaten daily, the bacteria in the digestive tract will elevate lowering the gas output.
      This will get you on the path for a healthy daily bowel movement. This helps clean the system and aids healthy digestion.
      I know it goes against everything you've heard but eating lots of the right foods will actually help you lose weight!
      Next, take a basic daily multivitamin. Don't look at your multivitamin as nutrition but more as an insurance policy. Think of it as filling in the gaps in your daily diet as opposed to a primary source of nutrients. Being a woman, you may want a plus iron formula.
      Last, you have to drink lots of water to be healthy. But you can disguise it. Fill your glass all the way full with ice before pouring low sugar beverages. Try iced green tea with a splash of orange juice in it for sweet. More antioxidants. Add lemon juice to water for flavor. Slice up a cucumber and float it in pitcher of water. Gives it salty fresh taste. But you must drink up to 100 oz of water daily to help your body get rid of waste and the toxins it contains.
      You must combine a healthy diet with exercise to multiply the benefit. Whether an hour a day in the weight room or just a 30 minute brisk walk every day, the added benefit of a regular exercise program really do increase and accelerate healthy weight loss.

    How do I lose weight fast without exercise?
    It's not because I'm lazy and refuse to move my ass. I had a injured knee last week and the doctor said I cannot do any exercise for at least 1 month. I need to lose weight fast because next month is my sister's wedding. I'm 17, 167cm, and 160lbs. With my current size, I can't even fit into a dress :*(
    Please help me to at least fit into a cute decent dress?
    Thanks in advance!

    • ANSWER:
      Sorry about your knee, but the best way for anyone to lose weight is to do more exercise and eat less. Keep a balanced diet, but eat just a little less food each meal time, have fewer snacks between meals. Eat fruit instead of cakes and cookies, for instance. Seek a dietitian's advice before changing your diet drastically, though. And try to do some exercise without using the injured knee. You'll need to walk to the bathroom now and then: well, hobble a little further than you really need to. Read a heavy book, but hold it up as much as you can bear to! Good luck, focus, look forward to and really enjoy the wedding day!

      You can lose a lot of weight just by changing the way that you eat.
      One of the easiest ways to lose weight is to eat less food but more often. The way I do this is to divide my daily calorie maximum by six. Here’s an example.

      Let’s say that I want to lose weight by eating only 1200 calories per day. Instead of eating 3 meals a day of 400 calories each, I’m going to do it differently.

      Instead, I’m going to eat 6 meals a day of 200 calories each.....

  47. QUESTION:
    How to do a juice fast to lose weight and how long is safe?
    I want to do an orange juice fast, cause I am a picky eater and don't really like any other juices. The purpose of this is to lose weight, how long is safe and can I use just orange juice and water? How much weight will I lose?

    • ANSWER:
      It is not a safe way to lose weight. You might not lose any, and you will gain back everything you lose as soon as you start eating again. Weight loss is an overall process and there are no magic answers. Pay no attention to weight loss supplements and pills and all the latest fads. You need to think about many factors but most of them are related to issues we've known about for a very long time. There are many sensible things you can do that will make a tremendous difference over the long term if you need to lose weight. It can be done in a healthy way. This is what has worked for me.

      Keeping a food journal really does help. It will give you a much better sense of how much you are eating, and when, and why.

      Make a few additional small changes - walk everywhere, always use stairs instead of elevators, walk on escalators, get up and move around at least once an hour if your work or your life in general is sedentary, walk every day, use a pedometer. Walking 10,000 steps a day is a really good idea. Build up to a long brisk walk everyday, or most days. Be more active and watch less TV and spend less time on the computer. Buy one piece of exercise equipment to have at home and be strict with yourself about using it. Sometimes you can find mini-steppers or exercise bikes at second hand stores and thrift stores for just a few dollars.

      Start a weight lifting routine. Join a gym. Possibly you can find one that has someone who specializes in weight lifting programs for beginners. Weight lifting will increase your metabolism as well as improve posture and appearance overall. Even if you can't get to the gym you can work out at home using things around the house. Invest in a good weight training book. The Dummies series actually has a good one.

      In terms of diet, cut out or reduce things like junk food, pop, fat, fast food. Eat more fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean meat, fish. Particularly if you choose a vegetarian lifestyle include natural peanut butter, hummus, dried fruit and nuts. Pay close attention to getting the nutrients your body needs to be healthy.

      Make your portion sizes smaller. Use a smaller plate - in our society we have become accustomed to thinking that we need a large plate of food at every meal, and we don't. About quarter of your plate of food should be protein and at least half of it should be veggies.

      Learn to count calories. At your current weight and activity level, you may possibly need about 2000 calories or more to maintain your current weight. So you will lose weight at a reasonable and healthy rate if you cut back to about 1600 or 1700 calories a day.

      Eat small amounts frequently, rather than three large meals. Never skip breakfast. Include some protein in your breakfast. It will help get you through the day.

      Drink plenty of water, at least 8 big glasses of water a day, and more if it is very hot, if you sweat a lot, or if you are exercising intensely, and eliminate fruit juices. Fruit juices have too many calories, so get your vitamins from fresh fruit, not the juice. You will begin to see changes in your body.

      Vary your routines. Don't eat the same number of calories every day (vary your calories from 1400 a day to 1900 or 2000 some days), eat a variety of foods, and do different kinds and amounts of exercise. You will lose weight much more efficiently if you mix things up from time to time so that your body doesn't adjust to any one routine.

      An area that many people overlook is getting enough sleep. You are much more likely to overeat or to binge eat if you are tired and not well rested, so get enough sleep.

      Check out websites about nutrition, exercise, weight training, etc. Here are a few helpful links.

    • ANSWER:
      Well, the best way is diet and exercise. I'm 5'5" and 120 pounds, I've got to keep fit for Breakdancing. Really, all I can say is.. Watch what you're eating, and try to fit in some running and other daily exercises. Running for about 20 minutes 5 times a week isn't all that bad. It works for me. Trust me, I was so lazy a year or so back. Once you get into it, and you see the pounds dropping, you'll be all for it.
