I''m so sorry to hear about your grandpa. You''re going through a hard time right now, so go easy on yourself. It''s great that you cut out junk food, but you really do not need to cut it out entirely. You''re already experiencing the problem that happens when you cut it out completely - you crave it! So, it''s perfectly okay to have a treat a couple times a week and as long as you stay under your calorie goal, you will still lose weight. You should feel great about yourself and your new eating habits because you are on your way to losing weight and keeping it off. You''re making a lifestyle change, not going on a diet and this is what really works. Diet''s DON''T work, changing your whole lifestyle does. But, be careful drinking juice - it has a LOT of added sugar in it. Don''t forget to eat lean proteins like turkey, fish, chicken, plain greek yogurt, etc. Protein helps you feel full longer and retain muscle, which burns more calories even at rest.
I would recommend you join a website called My Fitness Pal or download the app. It''s a site for adults looking to lose weight and get healthier. It''s free to join and they tell you how many calories to eat based on your height/weight/age and how much weight you want to lose per week. It''s also great for connecting with other people who are also trying to lose and get healthier. You can add friends, ask questions, create a blog or you can just use it to log your food and exercise.
You are a strong person and you will get through this. Know that it''s okay to feel sad or bummed out about your grandpa. I would recommend talking to your parents about this, especially whomever''s parent it was because it''s very likely they are also feeling sad about it. Good luck!

I have some extra belly fat that I want to get rid of?
Discover How You Can Lose Weight Permanently
Recommended Answer:
You can''t lose fat in one place. You can tone muscles in your abdomen (your ''abs'') but you can''t reduce belly fat. The reason you have fat there is because your body stores fat there. For guys it''s usually the belly, for women it''s often the butt and thighs. The only way to get rid of it is to lose weight, to reduce fat in general.
Exercises, as we think of them generally, are to strengthen and build certain muscle groups. Sit-ups or ''crunches'' strengthen the abdominal muscles, and some of that might help--at least you''d have a nice firm stomach underneath all that fat. 8^) But better would be what we call ''cardio'', just general exercise to get your heart pumping and burn some calories.
I lost about 30 pounds in the last year or so. I didn''t even really notice until I went to a doctor appointment and they made me get on a scale. I thought there must be something wrong with the scale! Then I began looking at pictures of myself from now and from a few years ago and the difference was really visible! I did this by bicycling. A friend moved away and left his bike with me for a few months, so I began riding it and I just sort of fell in love with it. I rode 5 miles at a time at first then 10 miles, and now on weekends I go on a 20 mile ride (which is not as long as it sounds, once you get used to it. REAL riders go 30-40 miles!) I couldn''t do it if it was ''required'', I only do it because I really enjoy it. My belly has shrunk so much that my pants hang on me, I have to wear suspenders (braces you call them).
- Brisk walk for 20 minutes 5 times a week. Don''t drink soda, and eat at a caloric deficit.
- Crunches lots and lots of crunches it''s the best belly work out.
- Run. - food and run, the an exercises are the last on the list, I''ve looked into his for a long time and everything leads down to those 2- I''m in the process of doing just that and its working miracles for me but u have to run atleast 3x a week around 40 min a day- give it a few months before u see results and don''t get discouraged
- Try to do an workouts like leg lifts, push-ups, crunches, etc
- Glad you asked! I was the fattest kid in my class. I am really toned now. Some of these steps require a iphone or ipad or ipod touch, but they are optional. (sorry! I don''t have any specific exercises)
1: STOP SNACKING it works. If you cut snacks out of your diet you will lose body fat.
2: Try hypnotizing. Download a hypnotize to lose weight app. Or listen to one on the computer.
3: Do ab workouts. Look up some online. *Download this app called "workouts"*
4: If you eat french fries eat mashed potatos instead.
5: Keep a log of how much you exersize. *Download a journal app*
6: Exersize while you watch T.V.
7: Set goals
8: Keep playing sports
9: Check your BMI on a BMI calculator online.
10: Find a thinspiration. Mine is the real life anime girl (seriously! I think she helped me lose weight!)
Hope this helps! You might want to let your parents know. They can help you. Do not eat dessert everyday either. Look for more stuff online. American Girl has good info for you. I have to go! My Ipad is almost out of battery. I will probably come back to give you more tips after I charge my Ipad. DRINK ALOT OF WATER TOO IT HELPS DRAMATICLY - sit ups work on the belly area
- loads of cardio if you have a smart phone or general internet access either download and app or go on youtube and copy workouts
How to burn high calories and lose weight fast?
I''ve gone down 19 lbs since the middle of last school year by starving myself and eating only dinner (I have to since we eat as a family but I get away with eating half) plus drinking tons of water but I can''t take it anymore. I seem to always be reaching for fatty snacks nowadays and I can''t control myself. I think about purging it away but I start crying and then freak out.
I exercise about 3 times a week for thirty minutes or more but it won''t help. I''ve gained two pounds in the past week and I''m literally sobbing about it. My parents won''t get me diet pills or anything and I''m obsessed with my weight now, all I think about is calorie counting.
In 5 days my best friend who recently moved to New York is coming back to where I live, he specifically asked to hang out with me and I was elated. I want to buy a pair of high waisted shorts to wear the day I see him because I have the perfect outfit.
Can someone please give me tips on how to loose weight fast?! It doesn''t have to stay off forever but just long enough for me to show him. I want him to be impressed with me. I don''t like him or anything but it would mean so much.
~Xoxo, Lexi~

Best Weight Loss Diet - Why Eating Healthy is a Far More Effective Way to Lose Weight Than Fad Diets
Recommended Answer:
There is no way to really calculate this exactly because we can''t determine your exact metabolic energy needs daily based off your info but can guess. But a pound of fat is 3500 calories if you are running a calorie deficit of say 750 calories per day it would take 4.6 days to lose a pound of fat.
But for your age, height and weight you seem to be perfectly fine the weight that you are at and look fine based on your photo. I would recommend that you don''t base your ''weight loss goals on weight'' you could be gaining muscle while losing fat and end up actually weighing more than you do now but looking better. This is why working out and weight loss is tricking especially for women, as you don''t see immediate results so you get discouraged. But keep in mind sometimes losing weight can be detrimental to your overall health if your already a healthy weight and try to push it lower.

Recommended Answer:
yes you''ll lose weight pretty fast(over 2lbs a week) but I''d go for at least 1500-1800(this includes the calories you burned) a day, if you keep going the way you are every day then don''t expect to keep or gain muscle anytime soon
- Yes you will but remember to eat healthy :)
- Why are you eating so little? You are a 21 year old man, not boy. You need more food in your body?!

Why Losing Weight Fast is Bad!
Recommended Answer:
Whether or not you will lose weight eating like this, depends on how many calories you burn every day, so it's a question that's hard to answer.
The advice that I want to give you is to add much more vegetables, leafy greens, mushrooms, and beans to your diet. According to Dr. Furhman, these are the best foods for weight loss (he wrote many great books, including "Eat to Live"). Fruits are also beneficial, but you are already eating those. Limit whole grains to 1 cup per day.
An easy way to add lots of greens and vegetables to your diet (especially in their raw state, which is best for health and weight loss), I recommend that you start drinking green smoothies. For example, blend some spinach, celery stalks, with apple and a banana, and drink it as a snack. See http://greenreset.com/smoothie-recipes-for-weight-loss/ for some low calorie smoothies, and check out other recipes on that site, with delicious smoothies, soups, etc.
