Recommended Answer:

You didnt even say your starting weight.. Add some weight lifting 3x a week and eating 5 times a day to boost your metabolism is BS. If your really want to lose weight you dont eat more; you eat less...Try intermittent fasting or eat less carbs.

No exercise but will i still lose weight?

I am a teenage boy with a 32" waistline but i want to be a 30", i have now changed my eating habits because whenever i was bored i used to eat lots of chocolate and crisps so now whenever i am hungry i just drink lots of water but if i am extremely hungry then i will have a banana but i find it hard to exercise because i can not afford to go to the gym and my family will make fun of me if i exercise at home so will i lose any weight with my changed eating plan but without any exercise??? (Apart from a bit of walking) If not then what exercises can i do which will target belly fat but i don't care about gaining any muscle yet, i just want to focus on my flab

How to Lose Weight Drastically

Recommended Answer:

The key to fat loss is not exercise, it's diet.Any exercise will burn calories but no exercise will burn fat unless your diet allows it. You can burn fat in your sleep or you can run all day and never burn any fat. It all depends on your diet. Fat loss is determined by calorie control, not by exercise. Good exercises for burning calories are speed walking, biking, swimming, dancing, etc. and ANY other physical activity which makes you move a lot of weight for a long time. But NO exercise is good for burning fat if you eat too many calories because you can always eat more calories than you can burn but you can't always burn as many as you take in.Too many people waste energy and time because they do not understand this one simple point. The result is too often giving up in frustration, abandoning gym memberships they continue to pay for, and many other unnecessary problems not the least of which is a lack of success. An average person must walk about five miles every day for a week to burn the calories equivalent to a pound of body fat. So, unless you think walking about five miles a day (or doing an equivalent amount of exercise) with no guarantee of fat loss makes sense, focus your fat loss program on diet.Diet for fat loss. Exercise for fitness. When you are in a fat loss mode and burning body fat, it is your body (based on your genetics) and only your body that determines where that fat loss will happen. You have absolutely no control over where your body loses fat first, last, and in between no matter what you do. It is not possible to lose fat only from a specific part of your body of your choosing. Where your body stores and removes fat is determined by your genetics and there is nothing you can do to change that short of radical procedures such as liposuction. And, in general, where it stores fat first is where it will lose it last and visa versa. The world of health and fitness has an unfortunate abundance of myths and spot reduction is one of them. There is no exercise, no pill, no supplements, no spa treatment, and no natural way to spot reduce. Your only choice is to create a caloric deficit with diet and preferably some exercise, burn fat, and wait for it to leave the desired body parts.Some women may be disappointed to learn that they can't remove their unwanted belly fat without losing a cup size or two. And, some men may be disappointed to find out they can't get a ripped abdomen without cutting into their essential body fat. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spot_reductionhttp://www.exrx.net/WeightTraining/Myths.htmlhttp://www.fitnesstipsforlife.com/the-spot-reduction-myth.htmlTo find out how the best minds in nutrition in the world (at the US NIH) have recommended for decades we lose fat, read my answer about how to lose fat --> http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=As615QJM4X_3ID9_05qmmlXty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20111028185603AAVcP4D Good luck and good health!!♠PS: Here are some good websites you may find useful.• A MUST FOR DIETERS http://www.freedieting.com/• BEST DIET TOOL ON THE WEB http://www.myfitnesspal.com/• BEST FOODS FOR YOU http://www.choosemyplate.gov/index.html• NUTRITION DOT GOV http://www.nal.usda.gov/food-and-nutrition

Is my goal weight alright?

Im 13, 5'3 and 116. I really want to be 100 pounds and ive been working towards my goal for a while and have lost 20 pounds so far in the process. will 100 pounds still be healthy for me?

How to Lose Weight Without Getting Saggy Skin

Recommended Answer:

116 is good for you now if you're trying to lose belly fat news about 3 pounds in your stomach doing stomach workouts only your BMI is really good. you're actually lucky because I'm 14 and 5 foot 3 and only weigh 90 pounds. so I hope this helps.

Other Answers:

  • It sounds like it wouldn't be too skinny. Don't lose the weight in an unhealthy way.Congratulations on your progress!
  • No, it won't be healthy. Best to stay at your current weight. If you hit 100 pounds, you're gonna be super skinny and unhealthy looking.
  • You're only 13 so i guess thats alright but if i was a girl i would start gaining weight once i get 15 because 100 lbs can be unattractive you should stay at 110 and get to 125 when you grow more which you will but you can do whatever u want
  • Hun your 13 and weigh 116. I'd stop there. You are in the perfect weight. That's really healthy. I am 15 and weigh 85.5 don't try to lose weight. It is not healthy. Stop where you are. Your fine. Don't become to skinny. Don't ruin your life.
  • Forget the exercise. Just drink cabbage juice. Cabbage juice is really delicious once you get used to it. You will fart a lot and may lose friends but you will be thin and beautiful, when I was on the diet I had gas all day long, my grandmother told me my house smells like she was back in Poland. Cabbage is very healthy, you can also drink sauerkraut juice as it's even better for you because it has probiotics. If you juice your cabbage make sure you drink it within 5 minutes as it loses it's power. 6-8 glasses a day. I also suggest wearing a panty shield but on your butt side or an adult diaper as it may cause a bit of anal leakage till you get used to it.My friends have lost 15 lbs in a week on this diet. It's very healthy and gives you great skin and hair-(just look at mine!) . Also prevent cancer and detoxes your body. You will be as clean as a whistle inside.

Which is better, dieting or exercise, or are they equal?

ok obviously a combination of both diet and exercise is best regarding weight loss, but some friends and I were trying to figure out which (if either) brings the most results. I always thought they were equal but some of my friends say clean eating plays the main role in weight loss. My other friends, however, swear that exercise is most important. so which is it? diet? exercise? or are they equal?
please note i am not asking for weight loss tips or a new diet/exercise program, i am happy with my current health, i am simply looking to settle a debate, thank you!

Stop Excusing Yourself From Losing Weight and Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:
If you are exercising but still overrating you won''t lose weight. So I think dieting

  • It depends on what you define as "health." If "health" to your friends is merely being thin, then diet is the most important. If you''re being honest with yourself and define health as a combination of both physical and biochemical balance, you need both diet and exercise. Exercise improves your heart''s performance and decreases your blood pressure, two very important long-term health indicators. Diet improves your body''s tolerance to insulin, reducing your odds of getting diabetes.
  • Since the vast majority of your daily calories are used to keep your body going (breathing, temperature regulation etc) you have to do a LOT of exercise to cover additional calories. So, eating sensibly is more important than exercising for hours. Although you''ll never get toned just from diet, tone requires exercise. And it''s not the volume of food that makes the most difference, it''s the type of food. 2000 calories a day of fast food will make you a lot more unhealthy (and fat) vs 2000 calories from vegetables. That said, most people who are ''naturally thin'' are twitchy types who can''t sit still - incidental exercise helps.
  • Rather than dieting as such, healthy eating is very important combined with exercise. The difference is this. The stomach may become full or be tricked into feeling full, but the cells of the body also have a sense of hunger. If they are not getting their nutrition, they will remain hungry.

    If you eat the same amount of food but eat non-processed and organic foods, you will be getting much more nutrition. Processed foods are often drained of most of their nutrition.

    As for exercise, just cardio alone isn''t enough. While that does burn calories, each muscle must be made to go through its "paces" so that individually, the each muscle is using calories. In this way they will become toned.

    Great exercises for working each muscle - Pilates, Yoga but especially the Zookinesis age reversal exercises.

    With these two tips (cellular nutrition and the exercising of all the individual muscles) you will be well on your way to weight loss and toning.

No real question just need to vent about my miscarriage :(?

My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for 4 years to have another child after our son, after me losing some weight and 3 months of the pill to get my periods back on track i found out in the beginning of march I was pregnant!! We were so happy. Until on our 3rd wedding anniversary i started bleeding and heavy. Like a period. No real "cramping" at all. I went to the hospital the next day and found out i was having a miscarriage.

Now almost a week later still bleeding and my heart is still hurting with many questions still unanswered. As in why? Or will i ever beable to get pregnant or have another child. I never thought this would happen to me.

How to Lose Weight Really Fast in 3 Easy Steps

Recommended Answer:
I never thought it would happen to me either. Especially since my first son was unplanned and we were teenagers!!
My husband and I have been trying for 18 months now for our second child. We finally fell pregnant only to miscarry a week later. I was devastated. I was a complete mess and until the bleeding stopped. It gets easier after that but each day but it is still a little difficult.
If you have any questions about the miscarriage itself it is best to discuss these with your doctor. No one will be able to tell you if you will have another child or not.
If you find that the situation has become overwhelming emotionally then you may need to to a counselor of sorts to help you with your grief.

Wishing you all the best and I really hope you have another child soon. Xx.

  • Sad. :( I just had a miscarriage too. I''ve been wanting another child since my daughter was a baby. She''s 4 now. We started trying in July of last year. I was so excited to find out I was pregnant. Then, devastated to learn I no longer was.

    No one can tell you why, and no one can tell you whether or not you''ll have more children. It''s just one of those wait and see things. But good luck to you. :)
  • Well, technically you''ve only been trying for as long as your weight was less, as far as your fertility goes, so try not to get discouraged. I know emotionally it seems like forever.

    If you had a m/c, chances are that the baby wasn''t put together right in the first place. However, all babies teach us something, even angel babies. What did you learn from yours?

    You should be able to have another child, you''ve already had one, so that greatly increases the likelihood that you''ll have another.

    I understand how hard TTC is, it took 2yrs for #1, and 3yrs for #2 for us (needed help for #2). I have been lucky enough not to suffer any m/c (that i''m aware of anyway).

    All you can do is take the time to mourn your loss, and to soldier on and keep trying for your little miracle. Good luck!
  • Yes, I know how hard it is and I''m sorry for you. Losing a pregnancy is always sad. I had 4 miscarriages, and it took me 10 years to finally have my two children. I had two miscarriages in the first year, then waited 3 years to fall pregnant with my daughter. Then another 4 years of nothing at all, then I had another 2 miscarriages. I gave up at that point - it was just too hard to keep on trying. I booked in for a tubal ligation - I decided I just wanted to forget all that TTC stuff. And just before I was to have that done, I conceived my son.

    You haven''t really be waiting all that long - wait for a couple of months and then try again. Good luck.

Can I give my adult dog puppy food to help her gain weight?

My 9-year-old Chihuahua has lost about 1/2 a pound or sorecently (which is a lot when you''re 4 pounds!) She''s not sick or acting strange, she''s just lost weight and feels very boney. I''ve been feeding her more recently, but not seeing results. She goes to the vet next month... but in the mean time, can I give her puppy food? I know it''s more fattening. Thank you!

Losing Weight Fast - The Side Effects of Losing Weight Fast

Recommended Answer:
I wouldn''t do that. Instead, I would add canned food in the same kind that you are currently using. If you were feeding Science Diet kibble, for example, I would get a canned Science Diet adult to go with the kibble (or vice-versa.) Puppy food is high in protein, which can be very bad, espeically for a dog with kidney issues. At 9, there''s a good possibility it could be her kidneys causing this. Cancer has to be on the list, too, unfortunately.

This amount of weight-loss is huge. I''m assuming you were waiting until time for the annual shots, but I would cancel that one and get her in right away. They will need to run blood work and possible urine analysis as well. Any dog losing weight like that needs to be seen sooner than later. If your little dog has been eating her usual amount and losing weight all of a sudden, something is definitely wrong.
vet tech

  • Canned food will work
  • Your dog needs to be seen by a vet to rule out medical issues. Why are you waiting for a month to see the vet?
  • You should take her to vet. Veteranian usually sells special formulated food for dog to gain weight
  • Well puppy food contains more nutrients than adult dog food. It has extra calcium and proteins and fat. As your dog is 9 years now I suggest you consult a vet or a breeder before you give puppy food as it contains extra calcium and fat and it might cause some trouble to his bones.
  • No, puppy food isn''t enough for an adult dog it''s not fattening and it doesn''t have enough minerals/vitamins/nutrients etc.

    You can find a weight gain food at a pet store. Make sure it''s for small dogs. If she''s 9 you might want to just put her on senior food that should also help keep some weight on her. Make sure she''s warm enough and don''t exercise her too much.
  • Try adding some raw or cooked egg yolks to her food. The egg yolks are high in calories. You can add two to her food for each meal. I''ve never known a dog to be allergic to raw egg yolks, although I have known one that was allergic to cooked ones! You can also give her raw bones for the delicious, fatty raw marrow inside. You can even just put some gravy on her food. Most dogs love gravy on top of dry dog food.
  • Take her to the vet maybe u need to change the food or something
  • You really need to see the vet, sooner (IMO) than a MONTH from now. 50% of all dogs age 10 & up end up with some form of cancer. Your dog is close enough to that age, for concern. Unexplained weight loss, and not seeing any GAIN in weight, despite feeding additional food, would SUGGEST Cachexia: Cancer weight loss (which often causes a 17-20% need for more calories) just to maintain the same weight.

    Yes, you can feed puppy food. But there are specific, MORE helpful diets if your dog is fighting cancer.

Choose The Best Way To Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:
I would say 1800-2200. you get so much exercise. you need to have enough calories to stay energized and alert. Be sure to get plenty of whole grains, vegetables and fruit in your diet and lean protein such as chicken, turkey and fish.

  • That is actually not a bad weight at all. Usually to stay on par, the average human needs to consume at least 2200 calories. You can go over, but make sure what you eat is healthy.

Sport to lose weight?

I want to lose weight and I plan to join any of these sports activities.. Which one do you guys think is the best for weight loss?

Ok I am going to try out for all these sports and I have a friend who is joining with me hehe. We had a deal to try out all the sport ccas that we are ok with. They are(in order of interest):
1) volleyball
2) badminton
3) track and field
4) table tennis
5) tennis
6) netball
7) touch rugby
8) cycling
9) basketball
10) squash
11) softball
12) biathlon
13) floorball
14) cricket
15) hockey

All th sports will be done 2 times a week and 3 hours each time except track and field which is 3 times a week, 2 hours each time.

Besides doing one sport, should I exercise on my own too? Or is 6 hours of exercise per week enough exercise? My diet would be as follows:
B: a cup of fibre drink (120kcal)
L: an egg, a low calorie home made sandwich, a banana
D: a bowl of broth, a small bowl of veggies, an apple

I'm short so I can't eat a lot. I'm only 5'2

How Thai Food Can Help You Lose Weight

Recommanded Answer:
Volleyball is soo much fun, it is by far my favorite sport-but unless you are on a club team where your coach is giving you workouts, you probably won't lost much weight from participating in it. I would recommend cycling, tennis, and track and field. You get more reps in, more running=using more energy=burning fat

As for your diet, I've been dieting/experimenting and I found that it was annoying to stick to one thing but I educated myself on different types of foods and how each macromolecule (fats, carbs, proteins) effects your body so basically, eat a lot of fiber and salad because salad will help wash you out, just like water. If you want to be more toned along with the sport that you chose, have lots of protein. My mom's friend who is a spin instructor gave me this which may interest you:

7am-1/3c oatmeal with berries and 4 egg whites + 1 women's multivitamin and fish
oil

10am-1/3c brown rice/quinoa and 5oz chicken/fish

1pm-apple or 1/2c 0% Greek yogurt with handful of berries

4pm-protein shake and a scoop of greens or vegetables

7pm-salad with chicken and 1/4 avocado + 1 fish oil

Remember-the key is not to eat as little as you can (according to this diet above or any diet for that matter) the key is to put good stuff in your body and you'll get good stuff out. Yes, you can eat a lot (ik surprising right?!!). I'm not saying to purposely over-eat, but eat enough and don't feel like you need to eat less just because you're short. Just know what to eat at what time. For example, don't eat a bowl of pasta and then sit on the couch watching tv because that pasta will just turn into stored fat. If you are going to have a bowl of pasta, its a good idea to have it before physical activity so you burn it off.

If you stick with a plan of eating better foods (ex: unsaturated fats like fish and avocados and not so much steak and bacon) you'll find that you no longer crave really sugary/salty bad for you snack foods and along with the exercise that you do, you'll be fit in no time!

  • Track and field, tennis, cycling, basketball, softball, and biathlon. If you want long term weight loss though, do what interests you most. You'll stick to it longer. Yes, if it heightens your heart rate, six hours of exercise is enough. And yes that sounds like a good diet. Just beware of processed food.

What motivates you to work out/eat right/lose weight?

i grew up in a family that talked about how good it was to eat right and exercise, but then got all negative when it came down to actually doing it. we're all overweight. i've never liked exercise, and i love junk food. i'm finding it hard to pass up a bagel in the morning to a bowl of oatmeal, and getting into the gym is a weird half-negative, half-positive experience that i sometimes avoid. i am currently at my heaviest, being almost 60 lbs. overweight. my question to all of you is, what do you do to keep yourselves motivated to work out and eat right? i'm sick of being overweight and i just need some pointers that will keep me in the gym and putting the right food in my body, but the desire doesn't seem to be enough to keep me on track.

Aerobic exercises include

Cycling
Jogging
Running
Cross-country skiing
Nordic walking
Inline skating

Circuit training

  • chop off your leg
  • Well, try to eat salad everyday for lunch? (cut down on the dressings though)
    Also, try skipping all the junk food lying around in your kitchen.
    Don't starve yourself, it's not healthy at all and you won't have enough strength to do anything.
    When you have free time try to do cardio. Jog or running helped me.

Can anyone help me find out what I need to do to lose weight?

Okay so I'm right around 5'3 and 160lbs. That sounds overweight but I have a large chest and overall it's pretty evenly dispersed so I don't look big. But I know that I would really like to lose weight. I would like to lose anywhere from 15-30lbs. I know this is a lot and will take work but I don't even know where to start. Could anyone give me pointers on what kind of diet and exercise plan I should give myself for maybe the first month, then what I should do the 2nd? I don't have money for a gym or personal trainer but I do have weights and I can run.

Recommanded Answer:
Hi, last year my weight was almost 80kg, at 5months I lost about 15-17kg while becoming leaner (also increased muscle weight). Now I'm down to 59kg, at 5'6" in height. What I did was take away all temptations such as sweets, junk food and oily foods. Increase foods rich in protein and low on carbs such as fish, chicken breast, tofu, I ate lots of veggies. I did not limit food intake; in fact, increased it.

I do water therapy (drink 3 glasses of water after waking up), then do 30mins of jogging and 30mins of rigid taebo everyday.

I wanted to give up at first, but soon my body sought after the feeling of getting warmed up and sweating every morning. I suggest buying sweatshirts made with 100% polyester to sweat faster. don't push yourself, instead build up gradually.

  • herbalife babyyyy
  • You don't need money or a gym. You can lose 40+ lbs in a year if you stick to this:

    1) Join sparkpeople.com! Who needs weight watchers when you can do this for absolutely free? They also help you count your calories (they tell you how many you can have based on your current weight and goals) and give you free daily menus. On top of that they have forums and groups for motivation, free recipes, some free fitness vids and cooking vids, free calorie burn tracking, free progress tracking, everything you need to succeed! Just start eating the highest amount they allow you to and reduce by about a 100 calories every month until you get to the lowest they allow. Then stay there until you reach your goal.

    2) Go on Youtube for free workouts! BeFit (you can start with jillian michaels 30 day shred on here!), FitnessBlender and Zuzka Light Channels are all great with free full length workouts! Also just search types of workouts you're interested in and you will find even more full lengths. Youtube is great. You can also go to bodyrock.tv! Most of the vids don't require equipment and the ones that do only require light weights or resistance bands + yoga mats which is reasonable. All of this can be done in your living room or bedroom. Workout 4-6 days a week depending on how much you can.

    3) Also walk everyday 3-5 miles. This isn't really exercise but it will burn a lot of calories overtime and its something normal, healthy and active people do! You can track your calorie burn and milage for free on your phone with the app cardio trainer.

    Good luck.

How do you lose weight fast?

Im at 120 close to 124. And my height is 4'11 is there any way i can lose weight fast by the end of feb ?

Recommanded Answer:
i'm no dietician... but i wouldn't suggest coffee.

the street rules to losing weight:
1. drink water instead of other drinks
2. make sure you drink water WHILE you eat your food, or before. this will make you not overeat. one of the greatest tricks ever.
3. get active. do whatever you want in this sense. if you're crazy enough to enjoy running go do that, but for the rest of us, lets do something fun, like learn to dance, play a video game (like wii fit or dance dance revolution), or just waste a bunch of energy doing random things like bouncing up and down while youre sitting still XD
