How do I lose weight?

I'm 15 years old and I'm a girl. I weigh 140 pounds and I'm 5 foot 1. I have been playing football for about 6 weeks. We have some pretty intense workouts and we're on restricted diets, but I've gained weight. Yeah, yeah, muscle weighs more than fat, I know. I've gained muscle but where's all the fat going? Nowhere. How do I get rid of the fat?

How to Get Motivated to Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:

okay, to get into shape , speed up your metabolism, rid yourself of excess fat and lose weight ,,,,,do as follows: Stop drinking & smoking (if you do this regularly) eat fruits & vegetables all you can (buy a slow cooker /food steamer & rice/pasta cooker to make it easy on you)...(vegetables might not seem "tasty", like junk foods,, but can be as you aquire your taste to them..and are loaded with energy and nutrients)...avoid all junk food, cokes, sweets, etc...and drink mainly water (green tea , juice & milk being the other options you drink). If you eat meat ,,use only steamed, baking or grilled methods for preparing fish or chicken. also, do an hour of walking each day at least. or some type of excercise. * you should lose about 10 lbs per month ** for a very quick, healthy "snack"..try eating French Vanilla or Natural Plain yogurt with honey mixed in with it..you can even add nuts to it. It is a famous thing to eat in Greece. ***also learn how to make "huumus" (look online for very easy recipe)..it fills you up and is very low in calories and is very tasty.

Other Answers:

• You can't spot reduce fat, so if you're looking at a certain part of your body like "Why is this fat still here?", you're pretty stupid. As for getting rid of fat, just do lots and lots of cardio.
• First of all, you don't just lose FAT--you lose WEIGHT--that means that if you diet excessively or too drastically, you can lose muscle along with the fat. Cardio training causes this--it kicks up your metabolism very high WHILE you're doing it, but afterwards, your body does not retain that high level and actually conserves fat in your cells while resting. You're doing workouts now--and presumably, you're building muscle--which is good for you. Your metabolism will stay high all the time. Don't change anything just yet. Especially if you're working out hard right now. Adding cardio can actually slow down this process. And don't focus on the NUMBERS--at your height, your weight may be fine--it is more important to find out how much fat you actually have over all--by doing BMI measurements. You need between 21-26% of your total body weight to be in fat to be and STAY healthy and fit.

Can I lose weight and tone by riding an exercise bike?

I'm female, almost 22, 5'4", and 143lb/64kg. Around the end of last year I weighed 169lb/77kg, but I started eating gluten free and noticed the scale starting going down, not intentionally. But I haven't seen a physical change really. I'm also vegetarian, so I actually eat pretty healthy I think, but I've always been very lazy and not very active.I used to be an online student but now I'm attending classes ON campus so I'm finding 3 days a week I'm parking and walking about 15 minutes to class from where I park my car, so that's half an hour walking 3 days a week. I take my dog to the park almost every day and we walk around for maybe 10-15 minutes, depending on the day, if I'm in a rush etc. I also like to watch a lot of TV and movies... So I started thinking about getting an exercise bike at home to sit on and ride while watching TV rather than just sitting on the couch.. playing candy crush... Would this help actually lose more weight and tone up? Or what should I be doing? My problem area is the stomach, of course, so that's the biggest focus.Help!

Consuming alcohol is most likely one of the worse things you can do, it will set you back for weeks based upon how much you consumeSee passionate weight loss story at:fat-loss-food.diet9.info

Other Answers:

• Yes that is a great way to go. Using an exercise bicycle will make you burn calories which will make you loose weight and will tone your legs as well. But if you really want to tone your legs try some exercise. A great exercise to tone your legs and buttocks is the squat. good luck!!
• An exercise bike would work, just make sure to change up your routine every couple of weeks so that your body doesn't get to used to the exercise. I'd highly recommend pilates and cardio for weight loss (blogilates.com and FitnessBlender on YouTube both have great, free programs). Also make sure to eat clean and drink tons of water.
• Yes. This is a excellent way to workout.Have you thought about getting a trainer too?

How to Lose Weight Fast Without Buying Anything

Recommended Answer:

Hi Kelsey, First, I would not cut your calorie intake because you are still growing and you need all the nutrients the food will give you. I would advise you to eat several small meals( 6 small meals instead of 3 large meals) throughout the day to keep your energy level up and increase your metabolize.( all kinds of veggies,fruits,nuts( sparingly if you do not have an allergy to them) all kinds of beans and brown rice, and fish. Second, Exercise for an hour in the morning and an hour in the evening.( There are exercise videos on you tube or you could take a walk or ride a bike at the park, take laps in a swimming pool, go skating at a rink, go kick a soccer ball around. Find some friends to do all these activities with and you will have greater success.) Drink plenty of water during and after your workout. Have a small protein drink after workouts. You can purchase protein powder at a health food store. Just watch what you eat, keep active, get plenty of sunshine( early morning sun is nice) and breathe deeply. All this will help keep your body beautiful and healthy. =)

I don't know whether to lose or gain weight?

I am a 16 year old girl, I stand at 5'4 and weigh about 106 pounds, according to my doctor I am underweight and should weigh around 120. The problem is that I don't like my stomach so I want to lose weight, I want those really toned looking abs you see on models, but at the same time I want to gain weight because having small boobs frustrates me so much, I am a 32a and I hate it. If I gain weight will my boobs be bigger?

How to Lose Weight Safely as a Diabetic

Recommended Answer:

Yes. You can have both. Try doing workouts that target your abs. You won't get defined abs by just losing weight.

Other Answers:

• Depends on your body type.. Also if your doctor told you that you're underweight you should probably listen to him
• If you want the toned look losing weight isn't exactly the answer. I would recommend yoga Pilates or Zumba they are all super good for getting you toned and fit. You are underweight just make sure you are eating enough calories a day and working out. And you will get the look you want. As far as boob size goes I don't know of gaining weight will do that, but I do know that birth control does ( although I'm not saying that's the answer) since you shouldn't go on it unless you need it
• It all depends, do the heavier women in your family have larger breasts? Thats more then likely the answer to your last question.. as for losing weight you should always take what your doctor says seriously your height and weight does not sound like you need to lose at all and if you want abs, muscle does weigh more then fat.. eat 5 small healthy meals every day and start a work out routine aimed at building abs and drink alot of water within a few months you will see results as long as you stay dedicated ofcourse. I understand that being a 16 year old girl is tough and your body image is greatly distorted i promise as you get older you will look back and laugh at all the things you used to think, please do not let all this media crap get to your head from the info you gave, height and weight, you sound like a doll and probably are the envy of many girls in school gaining a few pounds wont hurt esp if your doc told you too!

How do you count calories if you want to gain weight?

So I'm like 21 and I weigh 105 pounds. I have like an athletes body but not the oversized muscle type of athlete. Just the small size athletes with some fat like lower body fat. Anyways, I been trying to gain some weight. I know there's proteins and stuff, don't offer me pills and whatnot. I just want to know how to gain weight by counting your calories. Kind off like how people LOSE weight by counting calories. I mean, how do I measure that? Do I just take my weight, average out how much calories will keep my body the same, and then double it? lol idk. I'm just trying to gain some weight. Like how much calories does the average person need to take a day. How much MORE than the average person do you need to take if you have fast metabolism and want to gain some extra pound. I work out. But not to lose weight, but to gain muscle weight. I'm a girl. I do leg workouts like squats to get thicker leg muscle and stuff. What do you think? How can I calculate or gain weight.

How to Lose Weight Even After Menopause

Recommended Answer:

I am almost 17 and i weigh between 102-105 lol and i have a fast metabolism. And average person needs 2,000 calories a day. If you eat over that i am sure you will gain weight... I have tried but it never works lol, so i just stay happy with how i am. But muscle weighs more than fat anyways. Just eat healthy and eat as much as a person should eat calories and continue working out, you are sure to gain weight. I think by adding it up tho is you count by what it says under caliries on a can or bag.. But also look at amount per serviing. If u drink a can of pop its like 150 per can. Per can you drink, thats how much calories you have had for the day. Just jeep a record of everythig you eat. And say amount per servibg is 6 chips. And its say... Idk 300 calories. You ate 12 chips. Add 300 + 300 and get 600 calories. Im sure this is how it works lol. But hope i helped and good luck!!
