How To Lose Weight Fast
Learn The Fast Way To Lose Weight

Free Weight Loss

In order to lose weight successfully, you first have to realize that losing weight is a journey with a specific destination. Right now, you’re at the very beginning and about to take the first step towards changing your eating and lifestyle habits, so that you can have the body you really want.

Of course, this isn’t going to be easy – nothing worthwhile ever is. You should pat yourself on the back for making a commitment to yourself that you’re finally ready to do this. So many people can’t even make it this far. So, in a sense, you’re already ahead of the game.

Your goal should be to lose one or two pounds a week, if you lose more than that, great, but don’t push for it. You want to stay mentally focused, healthy and determined. If you push too hard, or try to force your body to lose big numbers, then you’ll eventually stress yourself out and hit a wall that may lead to failure.

Here’s some suggestions that you can use to create a successful weight loss plan:

Set a Reasonable Goal

Your first step should be to decide how much weight you want to lose. Get some 3x5 index cards and write one goal or positive statement down on each one. Start by writing down your ideal weight, this is your ultimate big goal.

Next, you want to set smaller goals for yourself. Write down a goal for losing five pounds, then ten pounds, twenty pounds, etc.

Write down some positive motivational statements about yourself.

“I love myself unconditionally”

“I’m a great person inside and outside”

“I’m going to smile and laugh today”

“I deserve this and I’m worth it”

Keep these cards where you’ll be able to look at them every day.

Eat Smaller Portions More Often

Growing up you were probably taught to eat three meals a day. You were also probably taught to clean your plate. While this schedule of eating meals is well-intentioned, the fact is that you are going to get hungry between breakfast and lunch, and between lunch and dinner.

Not only are you probably having a large portion for each meal, but you are also snacking on junk food in between. Unfortunately, this way of eating leads to a lot of weight gain. It’s been proven that if you eat several small meals during the day, you won’t get hungry between meals and when you do, it’s easier to snack on something that has less calories.

Plan to eat five small meals a day, instead of three, and see if that helps to curb your food cravings.

Keep a Food Journal

Just like a diary is a snippet of events that happen in your life, a food journal helps you to keep track of what you’re really putting into your mouth on a daily basis. You probably have a mental picture of what you normally eat, but when you see it in writing, you may be surprised at all the extra foods you’re eating without even thinking about it.

Write down what you ate, what time you ate it, and how you felt when you ate that particular food. Sometimes when we eat certain “comfort foods” we’re really trying to use food to fill up an emotional hole in our hearts.

Feelings of loneliness, boredom, stress, anger and low-self esteem are often triggers for food binging. Write it down and you can go back and evaluate it later.

Treat Yourself

When you reach one of your weight loss goals, go ahead and treat yourself to something special. The only catch is that your reward cannot be a food item. That’s right, you will not have a bowl of ice cream or a big slice of pizza.

You want to mentally get away from thinking of food as a reward or a security blanket. So, think of some other things that will put a smile on your face. Money is always a good reward. Maybe you can create a reward jar and pay yourself five dollars for every milestone achieved. You could go on a nice shopping spree after you’ve reached your final goal weight.

You could also buy yourself some fresh flowers, a nice pair of earrings, a new video game, a new tie, etc.

Another great idea is to make up your own reward coupon books.

I hope these tips are helpful and that you are successful in creating a healthier and happier new you.

      The whole idea of a successful weight loss program is to approach it in a realistic manner without compromising your overall health.

      Since 2005 I have tried reducing my weight using most of the so-called popular weight loss program from the internet but with no avail until I meet the following weight loss program that’s finally worked for me with all the above criteria. I'm confident that it will work for you too.

  13. QUESTION:
    Any free weight loss programs for 13 year olds?
    I am trying to loss weight and need a program that will work.
    I know all of you think I am to young but I really do need to lose weight.

    • ANSWER:
      Well, I do know one diet I found did work for me, but it's not an easy diet to deal with, and it's free as free gets! And I'm probably going to catch a lot of flack for even suggesting this to a child, but try a water diet. It's suggested normally for about five days, but you might want to start it trying just two days to see if you can handle it. This is the way it goes...

      *Side note: I lost five pounds in two days trying this diet, if that's any indication.

      It helps if you have a water cleaning system, like PUR or Brita, because the diet calls for nothing but purified water. If you have something like that, this diet only costs the price of replacing the filter every three months. If you have a fresh filter, then there's no problem.

      But basically, you do nothing but drink water-- and maybe occasionally eat an apple or something-- they're mostly water anyway. It's not an easy program to get through, but after three days (on the full five day program), hunger basically goes away and your body starts feeding off its stored energy (fat). However, since you're young, again, I'm suggesting maybe trying it for two days and taking a break for a day or two before doing another two days.

      The basic trick of this diet is that your body starts dropping stored water and salt from the foods you eat on a regular basis. You'll have to use the bathroom a lot, but that's natural for this diet. Whatever food allergies you might have cause swelling that is what's called "False Fat", which you'll lose almost immediately (within three to five days on the full program). Again, it's a hard diet, but it does work if you really stick to it. Doing it once per month is considered 'safe', but it's basically a fasting. DO NOT do it more than once per month... it can make you sick if you do it more than that. A few days on and a few days off usually helps keep you safely fed and the weight should stay off as you continue to lose it. Remember: No more than five or six days per month.

  14. QUESTION:
    Are there any FREE weight loss sites?
    I want to lose 40-50 lb. within the next 5 months and KEEP it off. But, I want to do it without starving myself or puking in the toilet, because if I want to keep it off for life, starving myself ISNOT an option!

    Is there a free, helpful weight loss site where I can track my calories, progress, get healthy meal plans and excersises, and get tips and support? All help is appreciated. (: Thanks!

    • ANSWER:
      www.sparkpeople.com is good for doing that.

    Thanks!
    Ok, does anyone else have any advice? Has anyone done this?

  20. QUESTION:
    How can I get free weight loss surgery?
    I want to get the Gastric Bypass surgey, but there is no way I can afford it and I don't have insurance at this moment, but I will soon. I am so desperate I will do something on T.V. And YES I've tried dieting and exercising and that hasn't helpd me lose the weight. I'm open to any suggestions. Thank you very much. :)

    • ANSWER:
      Seriously, I'd recommend you first isolate the reason why you're unable to lose weight via diet and exercise. Find out if there's some aggravating cause, like thyroid activity, hormonal imbalances, etc, etc. Go see your doctor and get some blood work done. If you can at least isolate the cause, then you can attack it from that angle. If you are still interested in the gastric procedure and you have no insurance or money then you're really up against a brick wall. Another thing you need to consider is that most reputable doctors will not perform a gastric surgery unless you are a minimum of 100 pounds overweight for your height and age. Are you at that level?.

  21. QUESTION:
    Are there any good free weight loss support groups online?

    Ps. i know diet and exercise are the best way and i've been cutting back calories and eating better food and doing things such as push ups and sit ups but i cant do high impact workouts such as running becuase of my hip condition. all i want is something that can help me with a small boost but is caffeine free

    • ANSWER:
      there are several caffeine free pills but they are mostly junk with a few vitamins here and there. diet and exercise are the best for weight loss. theres no magic pill.

      youre going to get lots of spam for asking about diet pills here, just a fair warning.

      [edit] i understand what youre asking but you have to understand that 90% of diet pills are junk, they dont give you a boost at all and those that do are usually the caffeine packed ones that give you more energy, and in turn you feel like you want to exercise and burn more. trust me, i used to take all kinds of diet pills and the only ones that even have any effect are the ones that unfortunately have dangerous side effects.

  34. QUESTION:
    What are some websites with completely free weight loss plans?

    • ANSWER:
      Eat less.

    What do you think of my free weight loss program: no drugs, dieting,surgery or exercise needed.?
    If you want to try it out, please send me results in one month:
    Put on a wide leather belt and adjust it as tight as you can get it. Then, eat as much as you want. Never eat unless you have the belt on.
    This is a non-surgical version of stomach banding which costs ,000 or more, and is completely reversible and harmless

    • ANSWER:
      It's not a good idea because like that stupid lap band garbage, it affects your ability to digest calcium, magnesium, and zinc. People getting that stupid lap band are getting osteoporosis and other diseases as a result of doing it.

      There are much better ways of losing weight. Listening to the people that are promoting low fat, low salt, no red meat crowd are simply not informed people and are promoting indoctrination, not good health or good advice for losing weight.

      good luck to you

  36. QUESTION:
    Do you know of a free weight-loss tracking website?
    I think keeping a weight-loss journal would be motivating, especially if I could make charts of my loses.

    • ANSWER:
      Please see "Free Online Diet & Fitness Calculators" source links below.

      The following healthy living recommendations will help you if you’re trying to lose weight, tone up your muscles, have aspirations of building lean muscle mass, are attempting to get a wash board stomach, or just want to feel better:

      *1) Burn more calories then you're consuming everyday and measure your results using the following formula: Calories Consumed minus Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) minus Physical Activity. Get a diet and fitness calculator that you can put on your computer or cell phone. This will allow you to easily calculate this formula, set goals, log your daily calorie consumption, and register your physical activities.

      *2) Eat natural and organic foods found on earth versus something created by a corporation to make money. Eat meals in small portions throughout the day and take a good multi-vitamin supplement.

      Avoid “High Glycemic Load Carbs” (sugar, pastries, desserts, refined starches such as breads, pasta, refined grains like white rice; high starch vegetables such as potatoes) and drink lots of water. Read this article for more information on high GL Carbs:
      http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/carbohydrates.html

      Do not try fad diets or diet pills. Here is an excellent food pyramid that anyone can follow: http://www.rayandterry.com/html/images/PyramidLRG.gif?osCsid=26a424be471d1337e7c2f105d5c64d9d

      *3) Exercise on most days by doing cardiovascular training and/or resistance training activities.

      Read a book or find a certified trainer to make sure your doing all resistance training exercises correctly. A great book to buy that teaches you the resistance training basics is “Weight Training for Dummies”. A superb magazine to buy with resistance training routines that will not get you bored is "Muscle and Fitness". Signup for the free newsletter. An excellent free online resource is at http://www.exrx.net/

      A good book to buy that teaches you the cardiovascular training basics is “Fitness for Dummies”.

      *4) Get plenty of sleep. Sleep experts say most adults need between seven and nine hours of sleep each night for optimum performance, health, and safety.

      *5) Educate yourself continually on health issues and make a life long commitment to good health. A great free publication is “Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2005”. A superb book to read is “You The Owner’s Manual”. An excellent periodic publication is the “Nutrition Action Health Letter”. A reputable test you can take to measure your biological age is at http://realage.com

      Look at all areas where you can enhance your health. For example, make improvements in the quality of the air you breathe. Review outdoor air quality forecasts where you live and get an indoor air purifier. Send me an email or yahoo instant message to "gainbetterhealth" if you want an indoor air purifier recommendation and if you have any questions.

  37. QUESTION:
    Can anyone give me the best free weight loss plans?
    I need to loose 6 1/2 lbs. a week for 3 months so could anyone give some ideas on the best way to do it. I don't care whether its healthy or not.

    • ANSWER:
      You need to realise that if you choose unhealthy ways to lose weight that a) you will only lose weight for a small period of time b) you will do your body serious damage.

      Everyone has the potential to lose weight fast. Unfortunatly fast weight loss is bad weight loss. There is a huge difference between 'fat loss' and 'weight' loss.

      Dramatic weight loss is shockingly bad for you. This wrecks your metabolism and irreversibly damages your immune system. When faced with an intensive calorie restriction, your brain immediately thinks you are starving and sends your body directly into famine mode.

      If you were to lose lets say 20 pounds fast through unhealthy weight loss only around 12 pounds of that will be fat, 6 pounds will be muscle and the rest water.

      Water will return quickly (meaning weight gain) and more importantly we need muscle to aid in weight loss. Muscle is a very active tissue, it burns up to 50 extra calories per pound, per day

      If you choose to lose weight through unhealthy methods than don't expect permanent weight loss or a healthy body.

      This following website gives you the tools you need to develop a healthy lifestyle and maintain it for a lifetime.

      Good luck and all the best with your weight loss goals

  44. QUESTION:
    best caffeine free weight loss pills?
    I have never tried any supplements but I am looking to add to my diet and exercise routine to produce more weight loss. Any suggestions? Coffee makes me jittery, so I would like to stay away from caffeine. Thanks!

    • ANSWER:
      If you’re on diet, then you have several options to choose from. Which one is best? One likely choice is a product which contains Acai berries and acai berry antioxidants. These berries are plucked from the Acai Palm, which is a tree that originates from northern Brazil. While Brazilians have been consuming the berries for hundreds of years, the exporting of fruits began in the 1990s. The Acai berry is high in amino acids, fiber and protein. Nevertheless, it’s especially high in acai berry antioxidants. Fatty acids in the fruit help the body regain its original metabolism, burning excess calories rather than storing them as unneeded fat.

  45. QUESTION:
    is there a free weight loss program online thats just like weight watchers?
    Like I'm looking for a program that is extremely similar, one that tells you which foods to eat more of which ones you stay clear of. and more importantly a site that when your thinking about eating a food you can type it in and it'll tell you the healthy ways to eat it and all that type of helpful things. I've tried a few and they suck. myfitnesspal.com is ok but not exactly what i'm looking for and I don't want to pay money for weight watchers it's to much.

    • ANSWER:
      I paid for one session of weight watchers got the booklet and then never went back. There is a website that has a TON of REALLY delicious recipes for weighwathchers that is free. Skinnytaste,com LOVE THIS SITE... also before I went to the first weight watchers meeting I used to go here for how many points is what....http://quiddity.cc/rachel/diet/wwfoods.htm, and you can also go here to see how many points what you actually eat is for points http://www.webmilhouse.com/pointcalc.php and one more thing straight from the book so you can see how many points you should eat a day:

      What do you weigh? Take the first two numbers of that ie: 150 pounds you would take 15 now add to this number:
      Female: 2
      Male:8

      Age:
      17-26: 4
      27-37: 3
      38-47; 2
      48-58: 1
      over 58: 0

      Height:
      Under 5'1: 0
      5'1-5'10: 1
      Over 5'10: 2

      How do you spend your day?
      Sitting down: 0
      Occasionally sitting, but mainly standing: 2
      Walking: 4
      Doing physically hard work: 6

      Nursing moms
      Solely breastfeeding: 10
      Supplemental breastfeeding and some solids/formula: 5

      once you get your total that is your points for the day. (if number is less than 18 your daily points are 18, over 44 than your daily points are 44)
      so If I started with 15 I am female, 23, 5'5, sitting down, and not nursing I would get 22 points for the day.

      You do get 35 extra points a week (that yes you can use, but it is better not to) so if you need a few extra points a day to get through it you can use them. They do NOT roll over to next week, once your week is over the new 35 roll into place. YOU MUST EAT AT LEAST your daily points every day, no less. If you exercise you can gain some points back which you can calculate here: http://weightlossbuddy.com/blogs/TvilleMonkey/archive/2009/11/07/how-to-calculate-weight-watchers-activity-points.aspx

  50. QUESTION:
    where can i go for a good free online weight loss program?
    i used to follow weight watchers, and it worked really well for me. but i had to give it up because i just don't have the money for it. but, i really would like to continue a similar program. is there anything that i can use, possibly online that will be a good tracker for me that uses a similar system as weight watcher's points, that is also a free program? please let me know of any you think of. thanks.

    • ANSWER:
      According to Gina Kolata, none of the most popular diet programs work very well over the long term. The diet that did work for me was based upon a whole plant based diet recommended by the following experts:

      Dr. Dean Ornish
      Professor T. Colin Campbell
      Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, Jr.
      Dr. Neal Barnard
      Dr. Joel Fuhrman
      Dr. John McDougall

      Any web site sponsored by the above experts will give your the diet and lifestyle changes you need to maintain a healthy weight. It's a pure vegetarian diet and I lost 80+ pounds easily, without having to spend any money on a quick fix solution that only helps the sponsors of the program. By the way, stay away from the Dr. Atkin's program. That diet will kill you slowly.
