• Your BMI is 35.6A normal BMI is between 18-25.Anything over 30 is considered obese.So, according to your BMI, you're obese, not just fat.Edit- It's BMI that matters more- Body Mass Index. You may not LOOK obese, but because of your height and weight ratio and your BMI number, you are considered obese. We're not being mean- you just asked a question and we're giving you an answer. If you didn't want your feelings hurt, don't ask the question! And you said in the title "HONEST ANSWERS".
• If you're 5ft 8 and 234 lbs you're fat. Extremely fat, 100% obese to be honest. You aren't large because you think you have a large frame, you have a large frame because you're fat. For reference, a 234 lb male at that height is either fat or on steroids because that's huge.
• You know what? do not please society, if you feel good about yourself then AWESOME. If you prefer to watch tv all day and eat rice and cakes PERFECT. That's YOU. Yes, eating vegetables, fruit, protein, doing exercise is the reason why you have legs, arms, a body. But do what you want to do; it's your life and it's up to you to chose how to live it. If you think you should lose weight, then lose it. If you want to gain weight then gain weight. But at the end of the day, your health is important; do whatever you want to do, but having a low body fat percentage (BF%) is better than having a high % . It feels great to be able to run and not get tired at the first 30 seconds. But everyone chooses to live different.
• Your BMI is 35.6Sorry to break the news but you are obese.

Is it bad to workout my abs right now?

Ok I use to weigh 205lbs and I now weigh 175lbs. Everything is going well but I don't really work out my abs because I still have a thick layer of fat on it.(Or in my eyes it's a thick layer) Anyways, I have read that you should start working on your abs when you have lost at least 55% to 65% fat in your stomach area because if I work on my abs now it will make my stomach poke out because my abs are pushing the fat on top outward which gives the pot belly illusion. Is this true? I would say I lost about 40% of fat in my stomach area. Should I start working my abs or will this not be a good idea?I am not at a point where I want to see my abs, I just want to make sure my mid section has a stable foundation.

How to Lose Weight while Pregnant

Recommended Answer:

You should weigh about 115. What's your weight now? Avoid junk food, fast foods, pastries, desserts, anything with sugar (cancer cells feed on sugar), gluten, syrup (even canned fruit in syrup), peanut butter, fat/grease (pork, wieners, chops, bacon, salami, pizza, chips, fries), pasta, potatoes, ramen, popcorn, white bread, rice, canned veggies, ice cream, soda, chips, tobacco, alcohol and coffee. No oil except olive and mac nut. To keep your skin clear, drink water, tea, unsweetened veggie and fruit juice. Join a gym; they have all the equipment and staff to show you how to use it to get the look you want to achieve, but you have to ask them. Much cheaper than buying your own equipment. Go hiking, biking, jogging, bowling, swimming, rowing, jump rope, play tennis, badminton, volleyball, soccer, jumping jacks, lift weights, trampoline? To tone your tummy, do sit ups, push ups, pull ups, leg lifts, butt raises and crunches.

How to Lose Weight With Bikram Yoga

Recommended Answer:

fruits are not the best for you because fruits have a lot of natural sugars and sugar of any kind isn't the best. You should still eat some fruit to get the vitamins and nutrients, but don't over do it. Yogurt, I think it depends what kind of yogurt. Just check the nutritional facts, the calorie and calories from fat count are what you should pay attention to. Chicken salad isn't that good for you because of the mayo/dressing stuff on the chicken. The best chicken for you is bonless, skinless white breast meat, but you have to be careful cooking it because it has very little fat so it dries out very fast.

Why Losing Weight Fast is Bad!

Recommended Answer:
If your trying to lose weight then you want to be dong cardio training like working on a treadmill rowing machine or spin bike. Protein is used for filling in the rips in the muscle from lifting weights this will put on weight but muscle not fat. if you are trying to lose fat do a cardiovascular workout and if your trying to gain muscle that's when you want protein. Don't overload on protein each scoop is equivalent to one chicken breast of protein and one scoop should be for one hour of muscular strength exersizes otherwise it will be stored as fat.

• Just, exercise daily, and eat less carbs.
• Protein shakes would make you heavier if anything

How to Burn Fat Without Losing Weight

Recommended Answer:
Protein shakes should only be taken in the morning and after your workout. Besides that two timing, it is practically useless. If you are looking to gain weight and build muscle, the idea is to eat a high calorie diet on top of your protein shake, sleep well and do the right workout to ensure that you get the steady gains you need.

I would suggest eating a high calorie diet instead of one filled with fat is because your body only requires a certain amount of fat which you can possibly get from the excess calories from your carbohydrate. I also do not suggest so much protein as a fuel source as it leaves behind nitrates which can be put your kidneys and liver under unnecessary stress. I would suggest eating things like potatoes, biscuits, pasta, noodles, rice and bread in order to get the high calorie diet from carbohydrates. If fixing 6 meals up can be a problem due to the lack of time or if you are looking for something more convenient, I would suggest looking to drink 500ml of milk in between your meal for a total of 3 times a day. Increase the amount of milk you drink by 100ml for each serving every week if you realize that you do not gain weight after a week of effort.

The next thing to get right is definitely sleep even before exercise. This is because even if you have the best workout and you get improper rest or insufficient amount of it, chances are this will cause you to lose weight and fall sick. One particular fact most people do not get right is definitely quality. Quality sleep means you need to sleep and wake up all by yourself. This can be difficult but I will still encourage you to do it on the weekend if possible and sleep the scheduled amount of hours on the weekdays when you are busy.

The workout is the main trigger to help you gain weight. This is done by using the workout at http://gohforth.com which I have seen many of my clients used and see effective results. The result of gaining 1 pound every week is quite possible as this workout will help you to trigger major muscles and help with progressive weight gain with little to no down time.

• protein shakes are only good for quick emergency protein meal. Always get your protein from actual food. Unless you are busy and have no time than shakes are okay.
• Don't listen to the posts saying protein from whole food is superior. Whey and Casein Protein are complete proteins with a Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score's of 1.00, the top of the scale.
  
  Aim for 1lb of protein per pound of bodyweight. So if you weight 150lbs, then eat 150g protein per day.
  
  Other great sources of protein include eggs and lean meats, but within an already micronutrient dense diet, protein shakes are optimal.
