How to loose 2-3 pounds a day?

I know it's probably not that healthy but I'm not gonna wanna get to the point where my ribs show. I'm 13 and I weigh 150 pounds! I'm not fat but I'm definitely not skinny. And I'm not athletic so it's hard for me to work out. I wanna lose some weight cause its the thing I'm most insecure about. I can skip eating for most of the day but not lunch cause I don't want people at school to think I'm starving myself. If there's any pills or vitamins or drinks or anything else you recommend too, that would be great. Thankssss

How to Lose Weight Drinking Smoothies

Recommended Answer:

what is your height?do NOT skip eating for most of the day.. if you deprive yourself of the necessary calories, your body is in starvation mode and will hold on to (as fat) almost everything you eat!guess what? i had the i'm not athletic, and i was FAT excuse so i could not work out............. but i changed this. How? By walking. When I started walking, it took me 18-20 minutes to walk a mile. And that was all i could do and my calves burned and it sucked. I did this a few times a week. And 2 months later, I was capable of fast walking that mile in 13 minutes 30 seconds. Not even jogging. Just got in better shape and faster at walking. Now I actually walk/jog 3 miles in the morning and 2-3 at night.. and it only took about 2 months. The only drink i recommend and recommend strongly is WATER! Stay off the soda :). And eat lots of vegetables (they fill you up but have almost no calories and tons of essential nutrients and vitamins) :)

• No. You cannot safely lose 2-3 pounds per day. The only way to do that is starve yourself, limit liquid consumption, and sweat out water weight. This is not fun, and it does not last. You need to create a diet for all your meals and exercise.
• Sorry if this isn't what you want to hear but first off losing 2-3 pounds is healthy over a period of a couple if weeks, not one day. And second you're so young you don't need to lose weight, in sure you thing you're grown enough but you are still growing!!! And no matter what you're weight, you will still grow and even if you stay the same weight you may even out from gaining height. You don't need to worth about losing weight at such a young age it's very unhealthy! The best suggestion I can give is to just be active! Go walk you're dog around the neighborhood every afternoon or ride your bike to a nearby park and back. Just do little things everyday to stay active
• When I was 13 I started using my fitness pal and it works great! I lost 12 pounds in 4 months. I'm 14 now and aiming to lose 10 more by December. Losing that much weight at a time is extremely unhealthy and the only way that could happen is if you starved yourself. Then, when you eat again you will gain more weight because you slowed your metabolism. You don't have to count your calories, but it helps alot. Just don't be afraid to have a cheat day every once in a while, for example at a party or going out for dinner. Don't drink fruit juices, drink water with crystal light flavor packets to make water taste more like juice. Eat recommended serving sizes. Get a little excercise. Eat 6 times a day: breakfast, snack, lunch, snack, dinner, snack. You can skip some snacks if you want but don't eat too much for the next meal. Hope I helped, and good luck!!

• I am a cheerleader to :) and the worst thing you can do is starve yourself try cutting some fats out of your diet watching your portions etc
• yup stop eating. the less you eat the more fat/ muscle your body will burn
• You're 118lbs... You're not fat, your weight is perfect. Don't do anything.
• Most fast weight loss methods are pretty unhealthy. You shouldn't lose more than 1-2 pounds a week, but considering your current weight, you probably shouldn't lose much weight anyways. If you drink soda, stopping is a good way to cut calories. Being active as you are with cheer leading you shouldn't cut your calories too low though.If you really want to lose weight fast and don't care about the negative effects you can do that diet where you only drink water with lemon, cayenne pepper and honey.
• Don't listen to people who say eat low fat. Fats are required to digest the rest of your food. Just eat more smaller portions through out the day, like 6 small meals a day instead of 3 bigger ones, and cut out meat and dairy. Eat Nuts, beans, seeds, fruits, vegetables, and grains all in a balanced manner. Also, be sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day.
• The fastest way to lose weight is to do exercises every dayrunning is a very effective kind of exercises
• When you are losing weight, you should exercise and diet together.If you exercise without dieting, you will get bigger appetite, whichwill lead to increase of weight, or muscle growunderneath the fat layer, and make you bulkier. If you diet withoutexercising, you will become flabby and will have excess skin. Fordiet, go wheat free. No pasta, pizza, bread and so on. And no foodafter 7 p.m. People achieve marvellous results with it. Depending onyour initial weight, you can drop upwards from 20 pounds a month. Ifyou don't eat wheat then you don't eat all those sticky, fatty goeycakes, you don't eat junk food, and you don't eat biscuits. But yourdiet is still balanced. It costs nothing, and you do not have tocalculate points or to buy special meals or plans. For exercising,start with walking, and then switch to running/jogging. Running is themost efficient and calorie-burn exercise ever. If you are overweight alot, walk first or you may have health complications (heart attack,disjointed bones and so on). Weight lifting is a good means to targetyour problem areas for men and women. It's not necessarily to become abodybuilder or even join a gym - a couple of dumbbells will help youto target your problem areas (stomach, butt, legs, arms, chest).
• I'm done with my weight loss journey and completely happy with how I feel and how I look right now however losing weight is a challenge for anyone and even losing 5 pounds and keeping it off isn't an easy task. Also I bet you didn't know that 5 pounds of fat is about the size of 8 cheese burgers? That alone should be enough to make anyone want to get on the ball and start a change for the better. Weight loss can be really easy to learn but the problem is nobody wants to put the required effort that is needed to actually do it, instead people continually look for (easy) ways to do it. If there was an easy way to lose weight I don't think 35% of Americans would be obese. There was a time when I also wanted to lose weight and was tired of starting diets only to lose motivation and give up just a few weeks later after seeing no results. However, let me tell you it is literally one of the easiest things you will ever learn once you find a good and reputable place to learn it from and I say that only because the world is filled with magic diet pills, liquid flush diets and a thousand other quick fixes that promise xx pounds of weight loss in the first week and even though it is impossible they know you're going to do it because your desperate. I have probably tried every diet pill, liquid flush diet, and ab rocket machine known to man and have had no success with any of them nor do I know anyone that has ever had any success with them. I have also tried starving myself which works very well for the first few weeks' right before your metabolism comes to a complete stop and eating just the tiny bit makes you gain weight and you end up weighing more than you did before you started starving yourself. Companies promote weight loss to make money not to get people healthy again and that's because they know you're not going to be a customer and buy their products if you're no longer fat. http://fatlosssfactorr.com is a site I want you to go to when you have 10 or 20 minutes to spare and I want you to sit down and watch his video on weight loss. He helps people every day to lose weight I have never seen someone as committed as him and that will go so far out of his way to help someone. His weight loss program is one of the best I have ever had the enjoyment of doing and it is without doubt the best success I have ever had with any weight loss program. I also couldn't be happier with my body right now and I have never felt this wonderful in my whole life. In the end you just got to remember to stick with it and stay confident in yourself and in no time you can achieve the results you have always wanted. It's not hard to lose weight but most people have a hard time staying motivated and 9 times out of 10 it was because they weren't really committed from the beginning. Anyways I hope I helped you and I hope you make the commitment to change your body and life. Remember it's not easy to take the first step but you did, you're here right now taking it and the rest of the steps will fall into place. Have a wonderful day.

How to Set Weight Loss Goals

Recommended Answer:

I don't know how tall you are, so I don't know what an ideal weight for you would be. If you are an athlete you might be a little more muscular and heavier than others your height. To lose fat you must restrict your carbohydrate intake, get a cardio workout daily if possible, your total calorie intake needs to be less than you burn (no matter what the type of food it is), and it is best not to eat for a couple hours before bed.

• Find a free online program where you can enter in what you eat and keep track of your calories sodium vitamins and so on. these type of programs you can usually enter in you height, weight, age, and goal weight and it calculates your allotted calories and such to help you achieve your goal weight!

How to Lose Weight: 20 Pounds in 60 Days Without Exercise

Recommended Answer:

It is possible to lose 20 lbs. of bodyfat in 30 days by optimizing any of three factors: exercise, diet, or drug/supplement regimen. I've seen the elite implementation of all three in working with professional athletes. In this post, we'll explore what I refer to as the “slow-carb diet”.In the last six weeks, I have cut from about 180 lbs. to 165 lbs., while adding about 10 lbs. of muscle, which means I've lost about 25 lbs. of fat. This is the only diet besides the rather extreme Cyclical Ketogenic Diet (CKD) that has produced veins across my abdomen, which is the last place I lose fat (damn you, Scandinavian genetics). Here are the four simple rules I followed…Rule #1: Avoid “white” carbohydratesAvoid any carbohydrate that is — or can be — white. The following foods are thus prohibited, except for within 1.5 hours of finishing a resistance-training workout of at least 20 minutes in length: bread, rice, cereal, potatoes, pasta, and fried food with breading. If you avoid eating anything white, you'll be safe.Rule #2: Eat the same few meals over and over againThe most successful dieters, regardless of whether their goal is muscle gain or fat loss, eat the same few meals over and over again. Mix and match, constructing each meal with one from each of the three following groups:Proteins:Egg whites with one whole egg for flavorChicken breast or thighGrass-fed organic beefPorkLegumes:LentilsBlack beansPinto beansVegetables:SpinachAsparagusPeasMixed vegetablesEat as much as you like of the above food items. Just remember: keep it simple. Pick three or four meals and repeat them. Almost all restaurants can give you a salad or vegetables in place of french fries or potatoes. Surprisingly, I have found Mexican food, swapping out rice for vegetables, to be one of the cuisines most conducive to the “slow carb” diet.Most people who go on “low” carbohydrate diets complain of low energy and quit, not because such diets can't work, but because they consume insufficient calories. A 1/2 cup of rice is 300 calories, whereas a 1/2 cup of spinach is 15 calories! Vegetables are not calorically dense, so it is critical that you add legumes for caloric load.Some athletes eat 6-8x per day to break up caloric load and avoid fat gain. I think this is ridiculously inconvenient. I eat 4x per day:10am – breakfast1pm – lunch5pm – smaller second lunch7:30-9pm – sports training10pm – dinner12am – glass of wine and Discovery Channel before bedHere are some of my meals that recur again and again:breakfast-wince.jpgScrambled Eggology pourable egg whites with one whole egg, black beans, and microwaved mixed vegetableslunch-wince.jpgGrass-fed organic beef, pinto beans, mixed vegetables, and extra guacamole (Mexican restaurant)dinner-wince.jpgGrass-fed organic beef (from Trader Joe's), lentils, and mixed vegetablesRule #3: Don't drink caloriesDrink massive quantities of water and as much unsweetened iced tea, tea, diet sodas, coffee (without white cream), or other no-calorie/low-calorie beverages as you like. Do not drink milk, normal soft drinks, or fruit juice. I'm a wine fanatic and have at least one glass of wine each evening, which I believe actually aids sports recovery and fat-loss. Recent research into resveratrol supports this.Rule #4: Take one day off per weekI recommend Saturdays as your “Dieters Gone Wild” day. I am allowed to eat whatever I want on Saturdays, and I go out of my way to eat ice cream, Snickers, Take 5, and all of my other vices in excess. I make myself a little sick and don't want to look at any of it for the rest of the week. Paradoxically, dramatically spiking caloric intake in this way once per week increases fat loss by ensuring that your metabolic rate (thyroid function, etc.) doesn't downregulate from extended caloric restriction. Enjoy, friend!

Other Answers:

• 30lbs in 20 days is impossible. its like losing more than 1 lb per day. drink lots of water, exercise, run, walk, lift weights. muscles make you lose weight faster. eat breakfast, lots of fruits but dont starve. eat small meals, like 5 meals a day, dont put flavor into foods. so dont put salad dressings on a salad. minimize sodium to 1500mg. no carbs like bread and pasta. no candy or oils, dont eat 3 hours before you sleep. eat before 6pm. eat only fruits and vegetables at dinner and eat eggs, yogurt, fruits, unseasoned potatoes, and fiber to keep you full all day. eat unseasoned almonds and nuts for snacks. eat salad for lunch. try chicken breast with the salad.

• I will have to say it, because it is the truth. That is a ridiculous weight to lose in such a short time. If you're going to it, do be prepared to become very ill. No one can be that desperate to jeopardize your health in this way.
• First. You have to reduce intake of food. So, eat small quantities of high quality food. proteins. Proteins shakes will do good. It will suppress your hunger. Two. Drink lots of water. That will increase fat metabolism and reduce hunger. Three. exercise. At least walk. If you can, run. treadmill. what ever exercise that will increase calorie burning. Four. Take sauna bath or massage. This will reduce water retension which quickly reduces weight, and massage will give you inch loss. Five. Reduce salt. Salt makes your body accumulate water which adds weight. ...
