How long will it take to get rid of belly fat?

I'm short (like 4'10) and I'm 14 and I'm not fat! But I do have a good amount of belly fat and I want it gone. What should I do to make it go away pretty quickly? If possible I would like to see a difference in a few weeks:)

How to Lose Weight Fast at the Gym

Recommended Answer:

Most often people in your situation have a pouch that they would like to get rid of which is due more from not being tone than from actual fat. If you do crunches, sit ups, push ups, etc. basically core exercises, this will flatten your belly. The body is a bag of water. The muscles help give it form. If you have weak abdomonals then your belly will stick out. You just need to tighten up these muscles with lots of exercise. Warning: you will be sore. But it is totally worth it. The soreness will go away, but the flat stomach will still be there for awhile. And you don't have to lose any fat to do this. This is all body sculpting.Toning your muscles not only makes you look good, but it also burns calories. Never starve yourself. Eat normally while you exercise because if you don't, you actually will do harm to yourself. Exercise breaks down muscles and then they grow back stronger. If you are not eating normally when you exercise, then you can actually lose muscle this way and the opposite of toning occurs.That's not to say you can't diet. You should count your calories and ensure that you get enough considering that you are still growing. If you make sure to exercise enough to burn more calories than you eat, you will burn off fat. If you don't eat enough, your body will think there is a famine and will actually break down your muscle to reduce your basal metabolic rate.All this is more than you asked, I'm sure, but it is all tied together. Too many young girls actually ruin their bodies by following fad diets meant for adults when all they really needed was to tone their core.So eat normally and tone your core. You will see results, probably as quickly as a few weeks, but that also depends on you. Can you stick with it? Will you push yourself to do as many as you can, or will you just do a few and quit? Will you let the pain discourage you, or will you see it as evidence that your muscles are changing? If you're sore then you are on the right track. But at the same time, only do work the same muscle group every other day to give time for the muscles to grow. It's possilble for you to hurt yourself, so get the advice of a professional to help you develope a body sculpting routine that is right for you.

How can I ask my mother to lose weight?

Like we joke around about it all the time. But the reality is that she really is overweight and she doesn't work she only is at home and the least she can do is lose weight. At least a good 20 pounds. She is 56 and she should know she can't be eating like that. She also told me her cholesterol is really high and when she had her blood taken out it came out with a little white stuff on it, which means it is really high. Also I notice she gets looks from around people every now and then. I am not embarrassed but I must admit I feel a little ashamed of her. Then she'll eat things that aren't healthy at all. It's just she has worked before but now she doesn't now my dad takes care of her and she should take care of herself somehow. It's just annoying that she's at that age and she doesn't seem to care. I don't know I have told her before in other times and she does listen to me. But I just don't think she will most of the time we just laugh about it, but it's not funny anymore (if it ever really was). Lately, it just seems to be getting worse too. How can I tell her to lose weight? What words can I use? Like you know not to sound offensive.

Recommended Answer:

You can ask. You can't make her do anything. She is going to have to decide that it is worth the effort to lose weight for her own health. One time when you are kidding around, stop kidding, get serious and say something like, "Seriously, I would love for you to be around to see my (graduation, marriage, kids, some major future life event). I am worried that I will lose you early to weight related illnesses. Please consider trying a healthier lifestyle to be around for us. We love you." Something like that is supportive, not obnoxious and may provide some of the motivation needed!good luck!

Other Answers:

• Maybe bring up activities you two can do together, such as going to the gym. Start having interests for a fit & healthy lifestyle, if you'd like her to lose weight without being offensive or just asking her. Maybe cook a very healthy dinner for your mum sometimes could be a start. :) Ideas like this is what I would do if I were in your situation.
• She is 56 years old. There is NOTHING you can say to her that will get her to lose weight. Trust me. She has to be hit upside the head with some extreme situation that makes her put in a serious effort.All you can do is make healthy meals for her when you have the opportunity and ask her to take a walk with you so you can "talk" to her about something. While on the walk, you make up some minor thing that is stressing you out. Of course, she will think you are immature for stressing out, but that's OK because the real reason was just to get her walking. Can you handle appearing immature if it means getting her out on walks? (It's your little secret plan).

Statics of Rigid Bodies pros. I badly need your help, please?

1. If a 200 kN load is hanging from a ceiling by means of rope, which makes a 70 degrees angle with the ceiling, determine the horizontal force H responsible for the inclination, and the tension T in the rope.2. The unstretched length of an elastic cord is made to run vertically from the ceiling down to the floor. If the mid-portion of the elastic cord is pulled with a 15 kN horizontal force, thus stretching the cord and making the cord incline with a slope of 4/5, determine the tension in the cord.3. A concurrent force system consist of three forces with magnitude of 120,50 and 130 kN. What are the angles among them assuming that the force system is in equilibrium?4. A 20 kg ball snuggly fits inside a cube, whose bottom is tipped at 45 degrees from the horizontal. Determine the reaction of the bottom of the cube due to the weight of the ball. Assume forces are smooth.Having a hard time and I need an idea. I'm not sure of what I have.. Share your knowledge please.. Thank you!

The vertical forces are in balance, so200 kN = T cos(70) andT = 200 kN/cos(70) = 585 NH = T sin(70) = 549.5 NCord problem:15 kN = T (3/5) => T = 25 kNThree concurrent forces:Without loss of generality, position the 130 kN force F1 along the positive x-axis.The 120-kN force F2 must then point somewhere in the 2nd or 3rd quadrant;it doesn't matter which we assume, the difference will just be a mirror image.So assume F2 points into the 2nd quadrant.The 50-kN force F3 must now point into the 3rd quadrant.Let A2 be the angle between F1 and F2; let A3 be between F1 and F3.50 cos(A3) + 120 cos(A2) + 130 = 0..........."equation (1)"50 sin(A3) = 120 sin(A2)A3 = arcsin[2.4 sin(A2))Therefore, cos(A3) = sqrt[1 - 5.76 sin^2(A2)]Plug this in to "equation (1)" and you have an equation whoseonly unknown is A2. Also note that cos(A2) = sqrt[1 - sin^2(A2)].Then the only unknown in "equation (1)" will be sin(A2),and the equation can be solved by algebra alone (and a trig table).Ball: I guess they mean the cube now rests on one edge.The weight of the ball is then exactly "split" between the two cube facesupon which it rests. Answer: (1/2)mg = 98 N.

You won't see any fat loss because Phentatrim-D is just another worthless supplement. Phentatrim-D has only one active ingredient which is related to fat loss and it's been shown to be ineffective as you can see here --> http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2931409/ . And, because Phentatrim-D is a supplement, you should be aware that all US federal health agencies warn against using supplements without the recommendation of a health care professional because supplements are not approved by the FDA, are virtually unregulated, do not have the protections afforded foods and drugs, are not recommended by the US National Institute of Health, do not require any testing, are often contaminated, may not even be what the label says, usually contain cheap ingredients, are often over priced scams, have been known to be dangerous, and can have numerous adverse or unwanted side effects.For more about diet pills, go here --> http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/weight-loss/HQ01160Read my answer about supplements here --> http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AmA35VDViBrL0y9rSkKcLknty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20111001134224AANB0OVRead my answer about supplement scamming here --> http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Aii1OzUVjBo7o550CXhmvVbty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20111014151252AAak0J4Learn what you're putting in your body.
