Holiday Weight Loss Tips - How to Lose Weight During the Holiday Season

Recommended Answer:
It sounds like you won''t get enough protein in your diet, or calories. That diet will give you about 500-800 calories. You need to eat AT LEAST 1200 or your body will go into starvation mode and cause you to gain weight to compensate for your new lack of eating.

If you''re looking to lose weight diet is important but the best thing you can do is drink lots of water and do light to moderate cardio in the morning on an empty stomach.

• You can eat what you normally have been eating, but control the quantity. if you cut back too much on the amount you eat or skip meals, your body goes into starvation mode to compensate for the loss in intake and it quits burning fat. You may even start to gain weight, as it tries to store extra fat due to the lack of intake.

Is It Possible To Lose Weight Fast?

Recommended Answer:
The best thing to do is what you just did. Admit that you are fat. Don''t try those "lose fat quick" things. They WON"T work. it took you a long time to get this big, and it''s going to take some time to get down to normal size. The best thing that you can do is just start walking. If you can, start walking to school, or walk to a different bus stop 5-6 blocks away. Then on the way home, get off 5-6 blocks away as well. You need to move more.
The most important thing you can do is to slowly start building muscle. You might want to start by talking to a coach at your school. Tell him that you want to start building muscle so that you can start burning fat. Remember-muscle weighs more than fat does (it''s more dense) so don''t get discouraged if you weigh yourself and haven''t lost any weight. Actually, don''t get on a scale. Take a picture of yourself in your shorts (and hide it from everyone). Then wait a couple months and look at the picture and look at how much your body has changed.
Cut back on your soda intake by 50 % for the first week, then another 50% the next week, and by the fourth week, stop it all together. Caffeine is a drug that is addictive, so you''ll have to cut back on it slowly and let your body get used to not having it anymore.
Don''t use anything that says "Diet" on it. They use all types of chemicals that trick your body into thinking that it''s actually consuming sugar when it''s not.
Start eating fruits and vegetables-the real stuff, not "fruit flavored" things. Have your parents get some fruits & veggies at the store. Apples are really good to eat when you have a craving for something sweet. They''ve got a good "crunch" too! Just eat the whole thing - ok - you don''t have to eat the core if you don''t want to, but the skin is good for you to eat.
Don''t worry if you fall off the diet wagon and eat a burger or piece of pizza or two. It''s normal to crave those things, so don''t fight it, just eat them in MODERATION.
I hope these things help you out.

• Going on a strict diet will end in failure.
  You already know whats healthy and unhealthy, and a good half a hour of cardio exercise is all you need.
  Once a week take a break day and eat what you would normally eat, but not more.
• Start to jog and you get confident go to the gym. If that never works out get a cubby girlfriend more cushion for the pushin.ツ
• If you are really interested in getting off weight, then you should start walking. This will cost you nothing, and you will get all the fresh air that you need. Walk for one hour every day, with a rest on Saturday and Sunday. Try and walk faster every other day, and that way you will achieve your goal.You will be surprised at the amount of weight you will lose and in a short time. Also eat healthy food, with plenty of greens, protein, and fruit. This will get you started, then you will be ready to pump iron after that. But you must start somewhere and it might as well be with the first step. So start walking.
• Look at tmw on youtube. just eat less and move more. run for an hr everyday or use a cardio machine. i was 15 when i statred too now im 19 and i can tell u it does get better just stay persistant good luck
• listen to Not A Happy Guy. His advice is the best.

How to Lose Weight - Don''t Lose Your Sleep and You''ll Lose Your Weight

Recommended Answer:
Personally mate i would mix your days up so one day is cardio, the other is weights. Mon cardio tues weights wed cardio thurs weights fri cardio, saturday and sundays off. You are overtraining your body so muscle wise you wont see a lot of improvement. An hour to an hour and a half is long enough. On cardio days if its intense interval training i would do 45 minutes to an hour. Always warm your body up on treadmill/ stretching for around 10-15 mins at a steady pace. When you are doing weights stick to compound movements such as bench press, deadlifts, squats etc as they use a large range of muscles. Kettlebell snatches are a great fat burning exercise you could use on either a cardio/weight day. Make sure you are getting enough liquid and are eating a good balanced diet. Personally i would focus on cardio to lose the weight- with sprinting and so on. Then slowly edge the cardio out once youve lost the weight and do more days of weight training. Just my opinion, good luck!

• ok to much cardio is never bad and either going to the gym every day as long as you workout different parts of the body and never over train 1 muscle 260 is allot but if you drink only water for about 1 month you will lose tons of weight you can also drink your whey don''t drink calories eat them

Losing Weight and Losing Those Love Handles

Recommended Answer:
Okay, the sad thing is, weight loss can take a long time, so when you start, be prepared to stay committed.
Talk to your parents and show them how serious you are about losing weight. They will be the ones who can motivate you and help you find out ways to lose weight, since they control your eating habits and other things.
Going vegetarian won''t help you lose weight, because your diet will start lacking vitamins and things your body needs to live. This will cause your body to try and hold on to all the fat it has, because it will try to reserve its stored energy. Take your vitamins and eat healthy by eating what is right, not by eating less. B12 is a vitamin that increases your metabolism, so you might find this useful to take while doing cardio workouts.
Start running/ walking. This may seem stupid and not a good motivator, but you would be surprised how peaceful going on a long, slow run through the woods or on a local track could be. Also get a membership at a gym or a YMCA. They have many programs such as Yoga, fitness classes, zumba, march madness, etc. Also, working out with other people will help you stay motivated, because I to find it hard to stay motivated when i work out alone.
I hope this helped :)

• look in the mirror alot this helps me
• Just tell yourself you need to lose weight and that could work..

Can eating ice cream the day after I had a good workout, make that workout pointless?

I went to cardio kickboxing yesterday and worked pretty hard. Today now I''m all sore - my abs, shoulders, arms, back, legs - many places. But I''ve heard that if you have something sugary or anything with sugar in it after a workout, you pretty much are throwing away the hard work you just put into that workout. Is this true? For example, I had a dairy queen mini blizzard today and now I''m starting to feel guilty. Is it something I have to totally eliminate from my diet? I eat it once in awhile, not everyday.

I''m 19 if it matters.

How to Lose Weight in 2 Weeks by Eating Healthy Food

Recommended Answer:
It doesnt make it pointless but it does slow down your toning process significantly! Sugar turns into fat when not burned off within a small amount of time. Try to stick to treating yourself 2 times per week. The most you should be having is a couple squares of dark chocolate or a small cup of ice cream once a day, twice a week. "Abs are made in the gym but they will only show in the kitchen" If you build your muscle underneath it wont mean anything if it is covered in a layer of fat. Eat clean, train mean.

• Actually, having something sugary directly after the workout isn''t a bad thing. A day after may be a bit long, but many distance runners drink chocolate milk after a run because of the high amount of carbs and protein.
• eating ice cream every once in a while will not affect your weight. eating it everyday will
