How do pear shapes lose weight?

So I already eat good! Breakfast usually consist of some kind of fruit smootjie (plain, lowfat Greek yogurt, low fat almond milk (60cals) and whatever fruit I feel like having in it. Lunch: grilled chicken salad tons of veggies and vinagrette. Supper: a small amount of what ever my parents are making that night. Of course this changes sometimes but that's what I usually eat. 4 weeks ago I started the couch to 5k program and I briskly walk 1-2 miles everyday. I have been lifting a little bit of weights to help tone my arms. But I haven't lost any weight or even toned up a tad what gives? Ive been trying for a while and it sure Is discouraging. My butt and legs are HUGE and are my main proplen areas. Does anyone have any tips or ways to help me lose this fat! Would love to lose some weight before the holidays! Extra info:16 yr old female.

How to Lose Weight Without Getting Saggy Skin

Recommended Answer:

Following a diet is easy at first, but how do you stick to your dietwhen it becomes boring and you're no longer motivated? Here are sometips for maintaining a healthy diet:1. The first thing you need to do is choose the diet that is easiestfor you to follow (based the food you like, whether you want to countcalories, or to avoid certain food, and so on). If you really don'tknow which diet you would like best, you can always give a diet atwo-week test drive. This way you can see how you feel and find outhow easy the diet is to understand and follow. Remember to choosehealthful foods, no matter which diet you choose.2. Write down a list of reasons why you are dieting (weight loss,better health, look better in a swim suit). Read them aloud toyourself every time you want to eat something bad for you.3. Start a food diary, and write down everything you eat. This way,you will be keeping tracks on you, and also will be more "afraid" tobreak up your diet, because your diary will "know" about it.4. Diet with a friend or join some dieting community, on-line or inreal life. Group support is a great means to keep you motivated.5. Find your triggers. Do you eat because you are bored, or becauseyou are upset, happy? Try to find other means to cope with youremotions.6. Keep healthy snacks in case you couldn't stand it anymore (apples,carrots, kohlrabi cabbage). If you are succumbing, eat a big carrot orapple and drink a glass of water. It'll make you feel less hungry.7. Expect to be a little bit hungry at first, and plan activities todistract you from thinking about food, or eating food.8. Treat yourself to something nice, a trip, a meeting with friendsfor doing well on the diet. This way, your brain will establish aconnection between being happy and eating healthy.9. Choose some physical activity or an exercising plan. It will helpyou to lose weight, stay fit, give you strong muscles, and a healthyheart. Rightly chosen exercises will help you to decrease yourappetite.10. If you slip off your diet, accept it and move on. Don't be toohard on yourself. You are human. Learn from your slip, find out whatcaused it and do better the next time.

How much fat is in one pound?

I know when you lose one pound of body weight, it consists of not just fat but also muscle tissue and other stuff. So my question is approximately how much of one pound is body fat? I'm guessing there are a lot of factors involved such as diet and exercise, but if anyone has an approximate answer or can offer some reliable resources, that would be a great help! Thank you in advance

How to Lose Weight and Breastfeed

Recommended Answer:

It impossible to answer your question. What is lost with fat and how much is lost depends on the individual and the circumstances. For example, obese people in early fat loss will dump a lot of water with the fat while thin people who are trying to lose essential fat will lose lean tissue along with the fat. There's no one answer to your question.Good luck and good health!!♠

Other Answers:

• A quick google search got me the figure for fat density of 0.9 kg/L (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adipose_tissue#Physical_properties)converting that to pounds/cubic inch gets you: about 0.0325 lb/in^3if you divide 1 pound by 0.0325 lb/in^3 you'll get 30.8 in^3, which is equal to half a liter, about a pint, or about the size of the average water bottleJust remember when you lose a pound of fat the loss will be spread throughout your entire body so you won't necessarily notice a difference.

How to motivate myself to loose weight?

I would absolutely love to lose 10 pounds but I understand that its not that easy to do. I am incredibly lazy, always tired and I barely have the motivation to get out of bed most days. What are ways I can motivate myself to actually get up and exercise? I eat a very healthy diet its just that I get barely any physical activity. Any advice?

How to Use Chewing Gum to Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:

I guess there's not a general solution... I'd start with small things, specially activities you can't avoid: use stairs instead of elevators, go by walk instead of car or bus, carry the shopping bags... Then you'll start going walking just for fun; then instead of walk you'll start to run...You should also identify what kind of exercise you like the most: maybe you just hate go running, but you like ride on bicycle, or you love climbing... and then that's what you must focus on; just try as many things as you can until you find sth you like.

Other Answers:

• You need someone to force you to make you excercise get a friend to help you
• You are already over halfway there with the diet. Do you belong to a gym? If you do take a fat burner right before you go to the gym. Fat burners, like Stacker 3, are a great boost to motivate you and wake you up to get to the gym. If you don't belong to the gym that's okay too. Go to a park for a hike or bike trail. Alltrails.com has local park listings. A fat burner or energy drink (no carb) is what I recommend before a long hike and its a treat for you to wake up and get it done. :)Daniel
• You have to want to do it. After about 2-3 weeks of increased activity you will find yourself with much more energy and then you may even start to enjoy certain types of exercise. That is the point when you can train hard and lose those 10 pounds. Build up gradually and you will see what I mean.
• Use Social MediaThere are many ways you can utilize social media to help you with your weight loss program. You can use it to find a workout partner who can help you with motivation. Also, studies indicate that having a workout partner significantly increases the chances that you will stick to your workout program and diet. You can also use social media to find the best exercise classes in your area. You can also use it like a diary and post when you reach your short and long-term goals. Posting about your goals will make you more accountable and help you stick to your weight loss program. This is also one of the best new ways to lose weight.

• You should really go on daily walks around the same time every day! When you start to lose weight try to start running! The fastest way to lose belly fat is to watch what you eat, lemons, oranges and Berrys are great for that!! You should drink a lot of water and slim down on the pop and juice.. Try not to eat a lot of junk and carbs like bread and pasta they're very fattening ! But yes cardio is the best .. Good luck hun
• OMG i'm 13 and want to lose weight too (191 lbs) :(Try cycling, yoga, rowing, swimmingAnd a healthy diet :)trust me it will work, just be patient
• Get running. Run hard, run far, run fast. Long distance marathon runners are skinny and can't keep the weight on because they burn carbohydrates like nothing!
• Try doing sprint exercises. You know running up hills as fast as you can and do that multiple times until you physically can't run up and down anymore. Don't do long distance jogs. Who would you rather look like muscle wise, mo farah or usain bolt? Go to a junior gym as well and lift some weights, benchpresses preferably. Do this forever, you don't want to get skinny and get fat again
