How to Lose Weight Without Counting Calories

Recommended Answer:

Well, you don't sound crazy. At least no crazier than anybody else.I know lots of crazy people, in fact I'm a few beers short of a six-pack myself (just slightly, not all the way or anything), and so far nothing you've said indicates insanity on your part. That could have been a ghost, as in maybe possibly there's a slim chance, but it could have been lots of things. The part where you're trying to get to sleep is what opens the door to lots of other possibilities. I have a sleep disorder (told ya I'm nuts), so I learned a lot about sleep and how it works over the years. I also believe in ghosts, but only as one possibility and a really slim one. Ghost activity is rare, and I mean rare. Here's a couple of non-ghostly possible explanations.1) You actually did hear something, just not a voice. But because you're entering into sleep mode, your brain didn't pick it up clearly. Then it jolted back awake, sort of said "what the hell was that" and automatically went through your memory looking for everything it heard before for comparison. It settled on someone calling your name, because that's what it sounded like at the time. All this, by the way, happened in a hundreth of a second. Brains work really fast.2) You were starting to dream. I know you were awake, but get this and remember it: Nobody ever said dreams only happen when you're 'fully' asleep. In fact the really vivid memorable ones happen when you're in that place between asleep and awake. Dreams can start running long before you enter stage 1 sleep, and can continue running after you open your eyes and stand up. So there you go. Both of those are very real and very common things people experience when falling asleep, so I know they're both possible. Or it could have been a ghost calling you. I'm not saying which, because I wasn't there with you. (Boy, now THAT would have been creepy if I was. I'm not just crazy, I'm also ugly.) I'll leave the final analysis to you. Which makes more sense, and which involves more making assumptions?

Other Answers:

• Not going crazy, you ARE crazy.
• ghosts don't exist. you're probably just hallucinating
• Need more information..you probably are being haunted..come back when you hear or see something.
• Did a family member did recently? It can be personal thoughts.

Is it possible for a dog to lose weight without exercising him?

Our Shorkie, has gained a few unhealthy pounds in the last couple of years and we are trying desperaely to get the weight off due to his genetic "collapsible trachea issue". He has all of the symptoms but his trach isn't actually "collapsed" per say, but it is in distress due to his honking cough, his inability to run and play anymore without coughing and gagging, etc. We've been feeding him what the vet said which is a diet type of dry food mixed with diet wet but to me he isn't losing pounds they way he use to when he was younger. He is small in height like a yorkie but has the bulk of a Shitzu. He isn't all tiny and stuff like a regulart yorkie. (the man has some muscles in his little body!!!). His weight is right at 10lbs at last weigh a week ago, then he weighed 9.5 about 4 days ago but hasn't lost any since then and he is practically starving to death but due to his condition, we MUST get this weight off of him. Any suggestions? p.s. there is hardly any way to get him active without exacerbating his condition so we were told not to walk him far at all, not to let him chase his baby too much, etc., so therefore, he hardly gets any exercise. I just don't know???Could anyone please explain to me what the first answer means that I received from someone calling themselves "extramer". Is idk, "I Don't Know"? Well, if you don't know, why bother answering? If idk doesn't stand for that, could someone please clue me in to what in the world that means. PLEASE don't waste my time. I am looking for help, not junk mail. Is this person doing this for points or what? Someone BESIDES this person, please let me in on this...... Thanks alot.We are certain that Aidan doesn't have any heart or any other issues with his lil bod! He gets excellent veterinarian care, takes heartworm medicine every month and has his entire life, get his Advantix II tx each month and visits his vet 3 -5 times a year and his vet is in Georgia but we live in Florida. We make that trip to Georgia because the Vet there has helped Aidan above and beyond the call of duty and has ALWAYS been there for him in any emergency situation, even if he wasn't on call. He met us at his office on a wknd to perform surgery on our baby's eye and let us help because his staff was off of course. Certainly, we have a vet close by our home for major emergencies but we make the 366 mile trip to Eastman, GA. to see Dr. James Rahn because he has taken the best care of Aidan. I know Aidan doesn't have any underlying causes for his problems with his trachea except for the fact that he was born with it, as most dogs are like him. (part yorkie, part shit

How to Be Lazy and Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:

There are lots of idiots out there answering with ridiculous remarks. Ignore them and yes, idk stands for I don't know.Try taking 1/3 of the food away and replacing it with frozen green beans. In getting my winter lazy dogs ready for spring agility matches, my friends and I do this to rid the lazies from the extra weight.The dogs love the green beans and the weight floats off.Have you had your dog tested for Hypothyroidism? That could be part of the reason the dog is gaining weight.http://www.newmanveterinary.com/Hypothyroid.html

Other Answers:

• Feed him less. Cut down by a small amount each day.
• Loosing a 1/2 lb. in a week is VERY good. Besides that, you don't want him to loose weight so quickly. Taking it off slowly is much better. You also mentioned that he hasn't lost any weight in 4 days. IT'S ONLY BEEN 4 DAYS! Besides that you could have weighed him after he ate or drank and hadn't eliminated yet! I would cut the wet food out altogether and feed him less of the dry food. Yes, he can loose weight without very much exercise.I just wanted to mention something else about his coughing and gagging, if I may. You stated that his trachea wasn't actually collapsed. Are you SURE this dog doesn't have a heart condition? (or even heartworms) Coughing and gagging are symptoms of both, including Congestive Heart Failure.Add: You should probably have his Thyroid checked too.
• Dogs lose fat by way of calorie reduction. That means you need to feed less, much less food and strictly food with no treats or human scraps. You should be able to see results in the dog in a week, if you do it right. Once the dog has lost some weight, you can start exercising it in your yard or even in the house.
• Some people on here tend to be rude so just ignore that comment! But yes it is possible but it takes dedication and a longer time to see improvement! Monitor his food intake, and absolutely NO TREATS WHATSOEVER! A little bit of light play a day is also beneficial. Make sure that your dogs daily caloric intake is met but not overdone and your guy will be losing weight in no time! I hope this helps! And good luck
• Overall, I agree with Julie. I would get him checked for heart worms as well as run a blood panel, including a CBC and CMP to ensure that his levels are doing what they are supposed to and this is not an infection or heart/lung condition. I also agree that the amount of weight that he is loosing is actually a great success. Just like humans, if you loose weight too quickly you put unnecessary chemical stress on the body which can be more detrimental than anything. Another idea to continue the weight loss is to feed him a few times a day instead of once or twice. It is usually recommended to feed a dog once or twice a day, however in this case, it may help to feed him more frequently (same amount of food just spread out). On a basic level, your metabolic system tells your body what to do with the food it is given, ie store it or use it. If you go long periods without eating, your body begins to think that it is in "survival mode" and stores everything it can. So if you eat less more frequently, you can boost your metabolism and release the extra fat that is held. For example, if you are now feeding him a cup of food a day, half a cup morning and night, try feeding him a quarter of a cup four times a day. Hope this helps!
• Yes. My vet told me to feed my dog 1-2 cans of green beans a day and that should help. And put a limit on the treats. Put just a few treats in a bowl and that is how many he/she should get a day. :) hope this helped! -Zita

How to Burn Fat Without Losing Weight

Recommended Answer:
Not if you stuff your face.
You still need to restrict your calories.

You have over 100lbs to lose. That will never come off quick. 1-1.5 years for that weight loss is a realistic goal. For your height you should aim for an over all final weight of 150.
If you slow down and set small but realistic goals you will be more successful.

I think your money will be much better spent joining a gym. Insanity is very difficult, even for a very fit person who is of normal weight. The heavier you are the harder it is and there is always a risk of you not completing it because it''s too hard. A gym would be a better use of your money because you have far more options. You can swim, bike, do stairs, elliptical, run, do weights etc. Plus Insanity will get old after a while. You won''t want to do the same thing all the time long term. Remember to keep the results you have to keep up that level of activity for as long as you want the results. You can''t stop as soon as you get what you want.

-Connor

• Eat green veggies ,and avoid meat and its products ,
  when you buy packaged food look at the labels, so they have no corn starch, or saturated fat in them and sugar as well.
  and exercise a lot ,and get more water.
  but I think its better to go to a doctor, he will give you the appropriate schedule,
  Good luck

Is Shaun T''s rocking body workout or insanity workout better?

I have done both with friends before and I would like to get one of them myself. Insanity worked really well for me, but the other one worked really good too. My goal is to get a flatter stomach, thinner thighs, lose 10 pounds, and just be overall toned and I would like to get all of this within two months (If it''s possible) I know insanity is a two month workout that gets results, so I was leaning more towards that one. Anyway, if you could please let me know which one you had got results from, or is better, etc., I would extremely appreciate it! Thanks :)

What Do You Think The Fastest Way To Lose Weight Is?

Recommended Answer:
Insanity is much more intense and serious. Rockin Body is pretty easy and fun. If you are looking for results in 2 months, go for Insanity. However, you must eat clean. Healthy nutrition is 80% of weight loss. Exercise is about 15% of weight loss, but the exercise is what will get you toned.

What supplements could a 14 year old take to loose weight?

I want to loose weight and maintain/gain muscle. But i want to take supplements that wont do any harm to me. Please suggest stuff that works too.

Lose Weight Fast Now - Surprise Everyone by Losing Weight Quickly

Recommended Answer:
make juices.

detox.

lemon + water + cayenne pepper + mayple syrup (the real stuff, not maple ''flavored'' syrup)

drink that and eat unprocessed stuff for a week.

then switch to carrot + apple + ginger juices while eating normally.

that''s how i lost 12lbs in the past month (a lot for me because I eat junk with them) these juices fill you up and act like a laxative... but in a good way. i saw a documentary about a guy that lived on juices for 68 days. he lost 37kg (it was a british doco), which is like, 65+lbs.

you don''t even really need a juicer. most fruit you can smash up yourself. just stay away from the store-brought ones, they have like, 32grams of sugar in each 200ml bottle.

• What supplements could a 14-year-old take to learn how to spell?
  
  Most 3rd graders know the difference between LOOSE and LOSE.
• There really aren''t any.
  
  One strategy is to quit eating sugar. First you find out what sugar is, and you quit eating it. Sugar is not only candy bars - it''s rice, bread, pasta, potatoes, cereal. It stuffs your blood stream with sugar which is turned into lard to stick on your butt.
  
  About 80% of our horrible diet is sugar - manufacturer''s make LOTS of money making you fat as a barrel. Anyway.... one idea is to quit eating it. It''s great.
  
  This is the Atkins diet - Get a used copy of "New Diet Revolution" off of Amazon Books. It might be in the library too.
• You''re 14. You don''t need supplements. Work out, eat lots of vegetables and only lean meat. Chocolate milk after a workout will do just as much for you as a supplement at your age
• http://www.menshealth.co.uk/lose-weight/fast-tips/fat-burning-supplements
  
  they might help! but a 14 year old might not be able to take them as it might harm the body.
  
  you can also get protein powder that helps you lose weight and gain muscle but you need to work out a lot!

Is this a good diet plan for me??

I was thinking about eating nature valley granola bar for breakfast and dinner and eat a salad for lunch.... I will also be exercising for 25 minutes a day when I come home from school.... Do u think this exercise will work for me???? I am 16 yo girl and weigh 230 and 5''8... What is a good weight for me???? Any other suggestions???? N thxx in advance....

How to Lose Weight Really Fast in 3 Easy Steps

Recommended Answer:
I would suggest what I did... I lost 10 pounds in a month...

Breakfast: Fruit smoothie, 200 calories
Lunch: Salad, fruit, 300 calories
Snacks: Fruit, veggies, or yogurt, 200 calories
Dinner: Should be less than 700 calories. Check the special k website, they have good, low-calorie meals.

You need to make sure you are eating healthy things, no stuff that has lots of carbs, hence the fruit and veggies. (I never have granola bars, even for snacks.) I also cut a lot of meat out of my diet; I''m on my way to becoming a vegan. Make sure you get enough protein though, I usually put a protein powder in my smoothie for breakfast.

Don''t have too little calories, otherwise your body will start storing fat. (it goes into survival mode when it goes too long without enough food. Light snacking and spreading out your food is encouraged!)

What kind of exercises are you doing? You should do cardio, but also muscle building exercises to speed up your metabolism. Try an elliptical trainer, treadmill, and core-building exercises.

This is NOT a professional opinion, just personal. It worked for me, and I am now healthy.

• Mabie you should add a little more fruits and veggies and 100 cal. after your workout
• No, those bars won''t give you enough nutrients or energy, and you''ll end up with malnutrition problems. This way you won''t have energy distributed throughout the whole day so you will end up shutting down, and eventually start eating the wrong stuff.
  You should choose a healthy nutrition plan, and one that you can keep for the rest of your life, even when you achive your weight goal.
  Try to eat 5/6 times a day:
  
  At breakfast, eat one or two slices of whole-grain bread (depending on the bread type) with fresh chese or chicken breast, a glass of milk and a piece of fruit. You can alternatively eat whole-grain cereal with milk and fruit.
  During the morning, eat a piece of fruit and a hand-full of nuts.
  At lunch, eat rice, pasta or boiled potatoe with grilled chicken or turkey meat or fish, and a lot of salad or boiled vegetables.
  During the afternoon, eat a yoghutr or a cup of milk with fruit.
  At dinner, eat a soup and some fish or turkey/chicken meat (grilled).
  
  Now, for the exerise part, you can either walk, jog, or do other type of cardio, but don''t forget to warm up and stretch before and after exercising. A good way to keep motivated is to alternate between one of those DVD workouts (you can grab them easily from the internet), and a walk or a jog. Try to do at least 15-20 minutes and increase the time weekly, as you get more comfortable.
  
  Be aware that weight loss does not happen overnight, and it will take you several months or years to reach your goal, but you''d better do it now, instead of keeping for when you''re older (it will be much harder to lose the weight then).

  Good luck.
