Best Exercise to Lose Weight For You

Recommanded Answer:
Losing 10 lbs a month is a good and safe target. Any faster weight loss is likely to be temporary only and in most cases you regain it all.

Running, jogging, cycling, swimming, dancing, push ups, sit ups, squats, brisk walking and power walking all help for weight loss but dieting helps more.

One of the healthiest weight loss diets is the DASH diet.

The healthy DASH diet can help you lose weight safely and effectively, lower your cholesterol and lower your blood pressure.

It is based on an eating plan rich in fruits and vegetables, and low-fat or non-fat dairy, with whole grains. It is a high fiber, low to moderate fat diet, and is rich in potassium, calcium, and magnesium.

You can see further details in a web search for "dash diet" + "lose weight".

  • There is no way to lose weight FAST that isn't possibly dangerous. Really the best thing you can do is eat right and workout. I'm in my second year of college and I know exactly what you're going through. I don't drink, and I STILL gained the "freshman 15" and even more my first year. Campus food is, for the most part, not very healthy for you. I would stick to eating healthy. What I try to do is eat a salad at least 4 times a week, maybe more, and instead of getting burgers I get turkey or veggi burgers. Cut out things like cheese as much as possible, because it's basically entirely fat which you don't need. If you really get a craving for something salty, try getting just plain potato chips instead of all the funky flavors. Try not to drink juice or soda as often, or if you do get low cal or diet drinks. If you are someone that LOVES snacks, bring snacks from home that you know are better for you, rather than getting the unhealthy things served at school. Also, eat lots of veggis and fruit, and east less pasta and other carbs.
    I try to go to the gym at least 4 times a week, and I try to eat as best as I can (I know, it's hard.)
    But do this and you should not only lose weight but also feel really good about yourself!
  • Dear Gabi,

    You can surely lose your weight in 8 months only. A healthy diet helps you to lose your weight and stay healthy but one of the biggest challenges to eating healthier is finding substitutions for existing foods in your diet. Here are some tips to make the transition easier:

    1.Use mustard instead of mayo on your sandwiches. You’ll get lots of flavor with much fewer calories and fat.

    2.Select whole wheat bread over white bread. Be sure to read the label to ensure you’re getting whole grains, not just colored white bread.

    3.Eat the white meat like chicken, which is lower in fat than dark meat, red meat. Animal fat is the number one dietary source of unhealthy saturated fat.

    4. Start using fish instead of high-fat cuts of meat.

    5.If you cook, then change your cooking methods. Bake, grill or boil your meals instead of frying. Use non-stick sprays—or better yet, non-stick pans—instead of oil.

    6.Drink more water. Slowly reduce the amount of soda you drink and replace it with herbal tea like green tea or water. Aim for eight cups of pure water each day.

    7.Don't drink your calories. Eat a whole orange instead of drinking a glass of juice, for example. Real food is usually more filling and more nutritious than juices, fruit drinks, and other high-calorie beverages.

    8.Gradually switch to skim milk. Milk commonly comes in four varieties: whole (4% fat), 2%, 1% and skim (0% fat). Gradually wean yourself from the higher-fat varieties to the lower fat milk every two weeks. For example: continue drinking your normal 2% milk for two weeks, then move to 1% for two weeks, and then your palate will be ready for the consistency of skim milk.

    9.Switch from full-fat cheeses to reduced-fat or fat-free cheeses the same way you would with milk (see tip above).

    10.Order vegetables on the side instead of fries. Flavor them with lemon juice or herbs instead of butter.

    11.Snack on fruit and nuts instead of sugary treats. The fiber, protein and healthy fats in this combo will sustain you to your next meal and you won’t have the energy slump that comes after eating candy.

    12.Reduce your portion size. Most people will eat whatever amount of food is in front of them, so start putting your meals on smaller plates. You will be just as satisfied because your mind "sees" that you’re eating a full plate of food.

    You need to do the following also:

    1.First calculate and then limit your calorie intake commensurate with your BMI. Don't stop eating food, all what you need to do is to just cut down your meals into six and eat healthy food.
    2.Cut down your oil & fats intake.
    3.Cut down refined sugar intake.
    4.Avoid soda's like soft drinks.
    5.Go for a brisk walk everyday for atleast one hour/ Yoga/ Jumping rope/ Dance/ Aerobics.
    6.Drink hot water before your meals also take it in the morning with added honey & lemon juice, it may dissolve your fats inside.
    7.Drink Green tea , as it is good for health and may help you to lose your weight also.
    8.Avoid junk.
    9.Most of all, proper sleep of 6-8 hours is must.

    Remember --- Never starve yourself !!!
    When you fast, your body slows down your metabolism in order to conserve energy and survive the perceived famine.When you do go back to eating, your body wants to store up for the next starvation period, meaning that you are likely to gain weight even if you consume fewer calories.

    Cutting calories can help you shed pounds, not eating altogether or fasting for weight loss is an extremely dangerous technique. Not only can it do damage to your body, but it can lead to serious problems, such as eating disorders. If you truly want to lose weight, eating a healthy diet and exercising daily is a better idea than starving yourself to become thinner.

    Instead of skipping meals and depriving your body, eat foods that are low in calories, yet rich in nutrients, such as fruits, vegetables and whole grains. These will help your body function while providing the calories your body needs.

    Eat healthy & Stay fit!!!
