How to Lose Weight and Kick Start Your Metabolism

Recommended Answer:

Hello! There are a few things to know that will greatly help you with your fitness goals:1.) It is commonly thought that only cardio will help someone lose fat. This is only partially true. To lose fat effectively you will need to build muscle AND do cardio (running, swimming, etc.). Generally, you'll want about 30-40% of your work out to be cardio. Gyms are great, but lifting free weights (dumbbells) is more effective. You can also do push ups, pull ups, etc.2.) Keep track of what you have done and the results you have achieved. Keep a journal of the days that you work out and hold yourself to working out a certain amount each week. (I would suggest 5 days.)3.) Make a plan of what you want to do. I'll help you with this, but you need to have a plan so that you aren't just stabbing this body transformation blindly.4.) Don't give in to cravings. You mentioned that you are eating healthily. Great! Keep track of what you are eating and look back at it after about a week, you can assess what you've been eating and see if you could make any helpful changes. More vegetables, less fatty meats. (Try grilled chicken and salmon for examples of low fat meats.) This being said, you still want to eat. I would suggest eating at least 1400 calories a day to lose weight. Make sure that you are not starving yourself! It is a fine line.5.) Sleep really is ESSENTIAL. Make sure you are getting 7-8 hours of sleep a night. Giving your body sleep reduces stress (stress forces your body to store fat and improperly digest food), and helps you build muscle. The good thing about muscle is that it burns many calories to hold it, so it essentially does not let your body store anymore fat as you get it off, it also helps you to create the calorie deficit that you need to lose weight.I'll post a great workout below (for any fitness goal, it has a lot of cardio and strength building, and it can all be done easily at home!). But here are my suggestions for losing weight.Day 1: Start with the program I posted below. This is a great program, all you need are some dumbbells and a little bit of space. Remember, do the first "Station" for a minute, rest for a 10 seconds, then do the second "Station" for one minute, rest for 10 seconds, etc. If you want to do 45 seconds instead, that is fine, but work up to a minute. Day 2: Go on a jog! Use your car to map out a mile in your neighborhood/area and run it! If you aren't used to jogging, start with a mile, but gradually work up to a few miles. Don't give in to walking, you will feel much better if you go through the whole way only jogging. If you REALLY need to, you can, but just think about the beach body you will have next swimming season if you don't walk. Day 3: Do the workout listed below (same as day 1). If you didn't repeat the exercise 3 times, do that now. After completing all ten stations, you should do the workout twice more (with a two minute break in between each)Day 4: Use your body! Do the following exercises: a.) Plank! (Do a plank for two minutes straight) b.) Push ups (start with 10, increase it in increments of 5 every time you do the workout until you get to 20) Repeat three times. c.) 20 sit ups/ crunches. Get those ab muscles! Again, slowly increase the amount of crunches you are doing until you can do about 50. Repeat three times. d.) Squats. Do 20 squats (Make sure you are SQUEEZING your butt and thighs while going down and up, if you want, add a dumbbell to your arms and it will add more difficulty.) Repeat two times.*Repeat this exercise at least twice. Day 5: Go on another jog! Try to make this one longer than the last one. You want to slowly work your way up to a few miles. Also, time yourself and challenge yourself to make a faster time.This 5 day workout system gives you two free days throughout the week. Right down on a weekly calender, or just in a journal which days you plan on doing what. Feel free to modify any of the workouts to best fit your routine, and the order of the days. I gave you about 40% cardio, and 60% strength building. Another tip: Don't burn yourself out! Feel free to workout for more or less days if you need. Just write down what you plan on doing and make it consistent! I believe in you, and you have already made your first step to the healthier body that you want. Good luck!P.S.

Help me with weight loss and calories?

I'm a 14 year old girl and around 5'4 and weight about 123 pounds I want to know how many calories I should be consuming a day And how many if I'm trying to lose weight An I'm going to start going for walks so how long a day should I walk for?Does green tea real help weight loss?Sorry for all the questions

How to Lose Weight: 20 Pounds in 60 Days Without Exercise

Recommended Answer:

hay sweetie, at your age you are still growing so you need to be extra careful about your thought process. One simple thing to think about is if it wasn't food 100 years ago it isn't food. Start with eating some fresh fruit, and yogurt in the morning. Don't worry about the calories that will just frustrate you. Eat not in a hurry, and eat enough to feel satisfied, but not stuffed. Eat some fresh vegetables for lunch first before you eat your sandwich, or what ever you are planning. If your family buys white bread, get them to switch to whole wheat or rye. Walk for 30 minutes, and do it when it is cooler, like morning hours, or in the early evening. Get a friend to do it with you. Having a fitness buddy will help you stay motivated to get healthy. As far as green tea goes, yes it has some good qualities what your body really needs is water. You need a minimum of 8 glasses a day. More if you are working out, or if it is very hot where you are. You are a smart girl for asking for help, don't apologize for looking for advice.

How to lose 50 pounds by April?

I think I''m on the right track so far: 200 cals or less a day combined with 4 herbal diet pills, interval training (starting today), water, water, water, sip of black coffee when I want the taste of something (probably stopping that soon), mutiple cigarettes to curb hunger and distract me, researching thinspiration and positive quotes to keep me motivated, staying upbeat and happy, enjoying the empty feeling in my stomach knowing I''m doing something right, and getting at least 8 hours of sleep a night. What else can I do? Will I lose 50 pounds by April if I continue this? I prefer sooner but my mom''s birthday is in April and I want her gift to be a FINALLY not-so-fat daughter. But most importantly, I''m doing this for MYSELF. To feel beautiful like I did at 100 HEALTHY pounds. Thank you and please no negative or hateful comments/answers.

Losing Weight Fast - The Side Effects of Losing Weight Fast

Recommended Answer:
Susan, 95 to 100 pounds would only be accurate for your gender and height *if* you have passed puberty and you also have a slender genetic build type (like Meg Ryan or Olivia Newton-John). If not, if you have a more Germanic build type (i.e., wider hips and/or shoulders -- like Sandra Bullock), then 105 to 110 pounds would be more like it. So, don''t just lose weight to reach an arbitrary number. Make sure the number you pick matches your genetic build type.

Note that it is easy to accurately figure out the healthy, post-puberty weight ranges for any height by starting at 5 feet tall with a 90 to 95 pound range for a slender female build. From there, add 5 pounds for each additional inch of height and then add 10 pounds for a more Germanic build. For guys, add 20 pounds to whatever weight you come up with for the same height and build and increase the healthy range by 5 pounds; because, guys have heavier bones and greater average muscle mass.

Cheers.

I think you already have a perfect weight,and I don''t think it would be really healthy if you wanted to get to 100 :)
No, thats a perfect weight
110 is a healthy weight, and so is 100 for your height. just use this bmi calculator :)

http://nhlbisupport.com/bmi/
Depends on your age, but most likely 100 would still be in the healthy weight range.
I would say around 190-220

How do I gain weight?

I''m 19, 6''5 and I weigh 170 pounds. I''ve been trying to gain weight since I was like 16 while drinking weigh gain. I workout a lot so I''m really toned, and I eat a lot, but I still can''t get bigger. Can anyone tell what to eat or take.

Why You Must Exercise to Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:
The key to gaining weight is to get your diet and sleep done right first before you head to the gym or else you will get the results that you are currently achieving which is tone rather than mass. The key to this is a high calorie diet filled with carbohydrates as well as proper sleep every night.

Most people think that they are eating a lot and come to the conclusion that something else is needed to fix it. The key thing to getting a high calorie diet is to eat more times rather than eat more each meal. Take for instance a buffet. How much food can you actually force down your system in a buffet compared to 3 or even 6 hearty meals that are spread throughout the day. I was appalled when I realized that we are subconsciously able to consume more calories if we eat 6 full meals a day compared to a single buffet seating, particularly in the carbohydrate section which is the key ingredient to help you to gain weight. This includes eating a lot of potatoes, pasta, noodles, bread, biscuit and rice 6 times a day spread 2-3 hours apart for maximum carbohydrate loading and energy replenishment. Due to the high metabolism, your body needs to constantly absorb carbohydrates to use it as a source of energy or it will find it elsewhere, particularly in breaking down muscles, ceasing some unimportant bodily function as well as burning fat. If preparing 6 meals a day is either an inconvenience or a hassle, I suggest you look to drink 500ml of milk 3 times a day in between your meal and increase that amount by 100ml. Once you have seen at least a 1 pound weight gain on the scale, you are ready for step two which is sleep.

Sleep is a highly underrated activity but speak to any athlete and bodybuilder and they will tell you that is what keeps your body weight stable or even help you to gain weight properly. This is because sleep prevents you from falling sick easily, thus preventing weight loss. One more thing that good quality sleep does is to prevent a situation where you burn more calories to stay awake, thus utilizing the needed energy for weight gain rather than keeping you alert. A good quality sleep consists of 2 parts, quantity and quality. Quantity depends on individual and you find that out by sleeping and waking up all by yourself without being disturbed at all. Quality refers to REM sleep or the best form of sleep where your mind drifts off to dreams and produces a consistent rhythm of repairing and resting your body efficiently. This causes you to be more alert, energetic and healthy without the addition of caffeine, vitamin tablets or other enhancement. If you can do this properly, then you are ready for the trigger that will promise consistent gains and that is by doing the right workout.

The problem with utilizing a weight gain regime with only sleep and diet is that if you cease to do so, your body weight will plummet, causing all the efforts you put in to be in vain. The key is to cause your body to grow and exercise is the right way. However, most workouts are either used to help big people become bulky or big people to become skinny, rarely the other way around. If you are looking for a regime that will help you to gain weight, I suggest you go to http://gohforth.com for that workout regime. I chanced upon it in my time in the army and it helped me to gain weight efficiently and now is also benefiting those who join my gym to do the same goal. I hope you find the same success and I hope that I was there to help you refine it even more.

You want to gain your weight you should eat more dairy products, fish and meat over bread. Choose more protein food like eggs, fruits and vegetables.
•You should be eating at least 2,000 calories everyday...
•Spreading delicious calorie-rich toppings on toast, pitas, and any other carbohydrate source is an excellent way to increase caloric intake. Some good high-calorie spreads are olive oil, cream cheese, butter, nut butters, cheese slices, and mayonnaise. Mix these with frayed meats like chicken or fish.
•Try to drink protein shakes, juices or whole milk.
•Wheat bread is more nutritious than white bread. Cut thick slices and spread with peanut butter, jam, honey, or cream cheese.
•Fruit Choose thick fruit bananas, pears, apples, pineapple, dried fruit
•Soups go for cream soups instead of broth-based soups.
•Added oils when you''re cooking, add a generous amount of oil to your food. The healthiest oils are unrefined oils such as olive, coconut, palm, and butter.
Good weight gaining combinations are bread, cereals, pasta, rice, potatoes or sweet potatoes combined with meat, poultry, eggs, cheese, nuts or sea food. Peanut butter sandwiches and cheese sandwiches are good combinations.

The protein in the above combinations will help to gain extra muscles.

How can I loose belly fat quick?

Healthy Ways To Lose Weight - The Easiest Ways To Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:
jogging is an excellent exercise because it let you lose weight
evenly throughout your whole body. If you want to lose weight in
specific areas, you should target them with exercises. If they are
your problem areas, they will be very difficult to tone. You will have
to work double on them. The best approach is this:
1. Lower/control your daily calorie intake (control for normal
weight, lower for overweight).
2. Run/jog to lower your overall body fat percentage.
3. Target your problem areas with exercises.
an excellent exercise, you can do it in front of your TV: sit on a
stool, and put your toes under something (piece of heavy furniture,
for example). In your hands hold a little dumbbell. Please, make sure
that it is not very heavy, start with one kilo, for example, or you
will damage your back and spine! Slowly move the upper part of your
body back, until it''s parallel with the ground. Stop for a second and
move it back to the sitting position. Repeat ten times. Every week add
to the number of repetitions. You will see the results in a week,
guaranteed! You will see or feel under the fat - if you have any - six
pack and muscles. Dumbbells do wonders. Much better than these
crunches - I came up to three hundreds and there was no results AT
ALL. With the dumbbells you will see it in a week.

For belly fat, it''s all diet. Cardio massively helps too. If you are only eating a little amount of calories then you are part of the way there but now you need to think about what you''re eating. To get rid of the belly fat try not to eat anything processed and what I mean by that is branded in a wrapper of some sort.
Eat wholefoods such as wholegrain breads and pasta and rolled oats. These are your carbs, your energy. Make sure you aren''t having many carbs because as soon as your body has too little it starts to burn the fat for energy and results in fat burn. This is called ketosis, only do it for a few months and you should see significant change. 40-50% of your calories should come from these.
Fruits and vegetables are good too more vegetables then fruit due to fruit having highee carb content. Eat 2 cups of fruit a day and 2 1/12 cups of vegetables.
Make sure you''re having protein too 25-35% of your calories should come from these.
Healthy fats from fish, nuts and avocados such as omega-3 oils are needed aswell. 20-35% of your calories from these.
Split it into five small meals a day having 25% of your carbs for breakfast, 50% around exercise and the last 25% spread throughout the day.
Good luck and keep fit!!
Atkins diet. I lost upto and in excess of 40lbs on atkins in just 4 month and went from shy and hiding my body, to no shirt and sunbathing in just 4 months.

How long do you have to diet to start noticing weight loss results?

I''m currently sixteen years old, five feet seven inches, and one hundred-sixty pounds. I downloaded this app called Lose It and it says (for my weight) that I should only eat 1,312 calories a day. So if I stay within that budget, how long will it take for me to start noticing results? My goal weight is one hundred pounds and the app says that if I lose two pounds per week I should reach my goal by November 24th. I''ve never dieted before so I no pretty much nothing about this. I also exercise every night with an app called Easy Abs. Thank you to anyone who answers!

Easy Ways to Lose Weight Fast - Get the Top Weight Loss Tips

Recommended Answer:
Yikes! That is scary!!!! Do NOT lose that much weight in that short amount of time, it''s extremely unhealthy. What I suggest you download is an app called FitnessPal. I use it. The healthy calorie intake for me is 1800 calories a day. But I drink skim milk, eat whole wheat bread, and eat lots of veggies. I treat myself to junk once a week, like a small cookie.
I also run on the treadmill for 30 minutes every other day. Some days I do a Julien Micheals workout.

I was overweight before, and I''ve the course of four months I now have abs! :)
The calories don''t matter as much, but Fitness Pal gives you a way to view the sugar and fat intake as well. Don''t get too obsessed with the calories, exercising or weight. The best thing to do is to read up on healthy foods. I could give an example of what I eat pretty much.
Breakfast:
2 large eggs with chopped peppers and tomatoes in it, 2 Morningstar sausage, 1 banana, 1 cup skim milk.
OR (different day) 2 cups of 80 calorie fiber one chocolate cereal with 1 cup skim milk
Lunch:
Apple, Clementine, 2 pieces of whole wheat bread, 1 oz. Cheese, 1 oz almonds, fat free yogurt, tuna in water, 2 tablespoons mayo
OR (different day) Turkey sandwich instead of tunafish
Dinner:
Recipe out of the south beach diet
Or a salad with lots of different veges

One thing I want to touch upon is that fat burning plan fast can be carried out by the appropriate diet and exercise. Your size not merely affects the look, but also the complete quality of life. Self-esteem, depressive disorder, health risks, along with physical skills are influenced in fat gain. It is possible to make everything right whilst still having a gain. Should this happen, a problem may be the root cause. While excessive food but not enough exercising are usually the culprit, common medical ailments and traditionally used prescriptions could greatly help to increase size.
You can''t weigh yourself every day because it can fluctuate drastically. Once a Week, on Sunday Morning, is Plenty.
If you were to go to the gym everyday or every two days, how fast would you be seeing the results and how quickly would you go down a dress size?

Quit smoking for a whole month, now NEED to loose weight?

I am about 10kg overweight, but I have quit smoking for over a month now :) Still I'm taking the nicabate mint lozenges.

I need to loose weight now, and I want to do an exercise that doesn't need concentration as I like to listen to music while exercising and dream about rather than running in the outside etc to watch out for cars.

I haven't been eating healthier lately, but doing that too and not eating after 5pm also (but a healthy breakfast and lunch with fruit and veggies inbetween).

Can someone help me with this? Also something that I can do at home would be great as I don't want to join a gym.

Foods to Lose Weight Healthily

WOOHOOO!!!! I QUIT A MONTH AGO TO ! EVEN IF I DONT KNOW YOU CONGRATULATIONS ! i know after you smoke you replace it with eating for every cigarette and doesn't it suck?! now i replace every stress and cig craving with a workout. Joining the gym is POINTLESS ! trust me until your at the weight your satisfied in then dont go. Once you are go to get toned and you say now you dont want a workout that takes alot of concentration but little do you know once you've worked out for a 1 week or 2 you'll wanna push yourself to something different and more that does take concentration like swimming in an indoors pool running WITH HEADPHONES and watching for cars. Plus you need to put the work to look good ;) trust me ! I was sooo over weight and now I push people to workout with me I feel so good now. My opinion though go on youtube.com and search insanity workout day 1 and do all of those its just running but im letting you know now it is going to kick your butt not really concentration just letting you know as the workout routine ends you have to go faster and faster until its time to stop and take a rest good luck god bless and do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The best strategy is a combination of calorie reduction and exercise; fairly simple.
The best form of exercise for the purpose of loosing weight is aerobic or "cardio" work; exercise that gets your heart rate elevated into the working zone and maintains it there for the desired period.
There are lots of choices...
If you don't want to dodge cars outside... Then consider a stationary bike or treadmill. Efficient if boring. You can "dial in" the amount of effort and if you stick with it they can be quite effective.

Also, various forms of "aerobic" exercise... The currently-popular "Zumba" thing is just yet another form of the "heavyhands" exercise program developed by Dr. Schwartz many years ago.
Aerobic exercise with light hand-weights... Done to music.
Richard Simmons isn't bad... I've watched some of his programs and there is nothing there that will hurt you... He may be a little over the top but his exercise physiology is sound.

How was my diet today?

Snack:

Meal 4:
1 large chicken salad included: pickle, lettuce, cabbage, carrot, 4oz chicken, feta cheese, 1/2 tbsp tahini sauce, lemon, mint, pepper, 1 apple

Meal 5:
1/2 cup fat-free plain greek yogurt w/ 1/2 apple and cinnamon
1 coffee (30 calories)

4 Simple Tips On How To Lose Weight

Recommanded Answer:
The oatmeal, banana, carrot, pickle, lettuce, cabbage, lemon, mint, apple, all have fiber. They carry out the fat from your body and help you to have a healthy digestion. The peanut butter, almond milk, tahini are healthy but they have fat. Fat has more calories and tends to go on the body for storage. The turkey, yogurt, chicken, feta cheese, all have saturated fat, hormones, foreign DNA, cholesterol that is not your body's primary fuel source, and goes on the body for storage for sure. But, you are counting calories it looks like and having multiple meals to keep your metabolism up.

Your diet is well planned out and if you don't mind counting calories, you have a good chance of losing the weight. However, it would be much healthier and easier to lose weight by avoiding the foods high in fat and eating only the foods high in fiber for quicker weight loss. Instead of the meats, try some no-fat, highly nutritious beans. They are lower in calories and high in protein. You only need 1-2 cups a day for protein - don't know your age and size. Beans also are your body's true fuel source and will give you energy for exercise and activity. You will have healthier digestion and better health.

Instead of the yogurt, you can get some miso paste from the health food store. It has a lot more probiotics and is fat free. You can make a soup, then when you put it in your bowl, add a spoon of the ramen seasoning tasting miso to dissolve in your soup. For calcium, you can eat more beans, greens, steamed vegetables. Use lemon/lime juice and spices for seasoning, it's no fat and tastes good with lots of vitamin C added. The beans, greens, steamed veggies won't constipate you and they have lots of fiber to carry out the fat. Plus they have magnesium, which you need in order to have good nerves and to absorb calcium.

If you need more energy, don't feel guilty about having some steamed whole grain like quinoa or millet. They are very high in fiber and protein. They are good carbs that give you energy. They get used up for energy and are not stored as fat. You can even have a potato without fattening condiments. Potatoes don't make you fat unless you are exceeding your calorie limit for the day. They are super nutritious with all the vitamins and minerals you need for good health. Plus, they are no fat and have fiber.

Fiber is your friend, fat is your enemy. But, if you are counting calories, you can do what you want. I don't know what to say on the coffee. I'm a mormon and I don't ever drink the stuff. But, I've heard it can be bad on your nerves and you won't sleep as well. Plus it's addictive. But, your choice.

I will send you a link to my site category with tons of super fast weight loss ideas if you decide you don't want to count calories, never be hungry and instead eat more of the foods that contribute to fat burning the most; recipes, testimonials, and weight loss tips.

You are one smart person, keep up the healthy trek! :)

SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE DOING GREAT ! THE NEXT TIME YOU GO TO A BOOK STORE, ASK FOR SOME MORE HEALTHY FOOD PLAN BOOKS . YOU CAN FIND MANY THERE. PERHAPS YOUR DR. CAN PROVIDE YOU WITH SOME SAMPLE, HEALTHY DIET PLANS AS WELL. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK !
Sounds like you're doing well. Props to you! Keep it up! Just remember exercise, and don't give in to the temptation!
Impressive! Although I think you may need to watch your caloric intake, it may be quite low if you are on the heavier side. If you have a phone with an app, I suggest you download myfitnesspal, loseit!, or livestrong. (they have a website too)They all give you a calorie goal based on your current weight/height/age needed to loose weight. It may seem tedious to calorie count, but it's necessary at times. Myfitnesspal has the widest selection of foods thus far and it takes no time really. I used to eat a bunch of veggies and fruit, but I didn't know I needed to eat more initially, so I didn't loose weight. Now that I use it, I loose 2-3 lbs each week for sure. It keeps me on track, but you seem to know what to do when it comes to a balanced diet:)
good for ya
This is true, i am agree with this answer.

Help With Fitness Questions !?

I am 13 and I want to lose thigh and belly fat ! I exersize daily and I have started eatig healthier So...

1. If I exersize every day for a month will I lose fat ?
2. What are the mose effecting fat burning stomach exersizes ?
3. What are the mose effecting fat burning thigh exersizes ?
4. How do I get rid of lower leg fat ?
5. How many calories should I eat per day ?

Top Five Tips to Lose Weight

Recommanded Answer:
Ok at 13 it is about a healthy lifestyle NOT dieting so I'm happy to see your questions are based around that and not "what diet will make me skinny!" :) So here is answers to your questions:

1. Will you lose fat? most likely yes. Will you lose weight? Possibly not. Why you ask? The simple answer is muscle weights more then fat so if you are doing a lot of toning exercise (the kinds of exercises you need to burn fat in the areas you have listed) then it is likely as you burn fat you will gain muscle. So don't be dis-heartened if the scales don't reflect your hard work. The best measure fore fat lose is actually measurement. Get a tape measure and measure around your tummy (using your belly button as a guide) around your thighs and around your bottom. Do these measurements once a week this will give you a good indication of weather or not your exercises are working.

2. Fat burning stomach exercises? The basics; Sit ups, crunches, reverse crunches, side crunches, planks and bicycle legs. Start at 20 each of sit ups, crunches, reverse crunches, side crunches (20 each side) and bicycle legs (20 each leg) and 30 sec plank then work up progressively until you are doing. 100 of each and a 90 sec plank you will see a difference very quickly.

3. Thigh exercises. There exercises are for tights and gluts; lunges, squats, single leg squats, 90 degree hold on a wall. Again start off at about 20 of each and 30 sec wall hold and work up to 100 and 90 sec.

4. Lower leg fat? The above exercises will help with this but basically it is about running walking, hill sprints etc. also calf raises will help.

5. Calories. Ok here is where I want to try and get you to change your thinking. Instead of "how many calorie should I be eating" you should be asking "what foods should I be eating more of and what should I be eating less of to maintain a healthy weight?" My advice for losing weight and maintaining a healthy weight is as follows;

To drop the weight you need a protein rich carb limited diet. The reason for this is the bodies favourite source of energy is carbs which come from starchy foods such as potato and breads etc. If your body is not getting these carbs it will start burning fat to get its energy.

As I guide I normally say; Have one large meal a day consisting of 3 handfuls of veggies (leafy greens are best) not potato or sweet potato etc. If you can eat them raw even better. and a palm size piece of protein (meal). On top of that you want 1 smaller meal consisting of a piece of fruit and a salad. Then allow yourself 2 small snacks. Such as a handful of nuts or a health bar. To kick start your metabolism in the morning start the day with a glass of warm water with lemon juice, if you can't stomach that try green tea. I hope this information helps. If you need more information on diet and exercises email me at zrarmstrong@me.com and I will help you out.

If you exercise you will lose weight!

Best way to lose weight is Cardio (running, cycling, swimming), anything that makes you sweat.
If you have the time, it is best to exercise at least for 30min

I can't tell you exactly what burns what, because that depends on your genes, your body.
Someone will lose but fat, someone will lose stomach first. Usually the thing you want most gone, will be the last to go.
Everything will burn eventually something faster, something slower.

As for calories, I'm not a doctor, and a doctor should be the only one who can tell you that.

Free print off diets needed:?

Hello I'm trying to get into shape by this summer I need too lose 70lbs.

Perfect Ways To Lose Weight

Recommanded Answer:
Beachbody, the company that make Insanity, can help you with that! Firstly, Insanity is worth it because it really does work. I'm doing it and I just have three weeks left. I've lost body fat and my cardio conditioning has really increased - I can do exercises now that I couldn't do during the first fitness test. Insanity's hard but it will take you closer to your goal than a diet alone can do. One of my friends is also doing Insanity and he's lost more than 20lb in just 6 weeks. He's going to be doing a 2nd round of Insanity straight after he's finished this one. Maybe you could do the same? You can get Insanity here http://www.teambeachbody.com/shop/-/shopping/Insanity?referringRepId=207609

Also, one of the benefits of Beachbody is that they have a meal planner. You enter how many calories you need to eat and what sort of diet you want (e.g. balanced slim-down, low carb, etc) and it'll work out a meal plan for you. It'll make sure you're getting enough protein and carbs and that you have enough fuel to get through the workouts while also making sure you lose weight like you want. It's only $2.99 per week billed quarterly but it comes with a 30-day guarantee so if you don't like it for whatever reason, you can just cancel it and get a refund.

Good luck for achieving your goals!

Ways to stop myself from eating too much?

I'm a 15 year old girl, 5ft 1 and I weigh about 8 stone. I go to the gym twice a week and I also do a lot of dancing. I would love to have a more toned body, but I think what's letting me down is my diet. I don't smoke and I don't drink alcohol often either. I don't eat breakfast, and for lunch breaks ill usually eat pasta. When I'm at home, ill either snack all night, or eat pizza/chips/more pasta/or take aways.

Luckily for me I shed weight fairly easily. But that's not the point, I'd really like some tips to prevent my cravings over snacking and binge eating. Also I'd really appreciate some healthy diet plan of some kind, thanks!

Choose The Best Way To Lose Weight

Recommanded Answer:
Losing weight is about 80% what you eat, so look at what you're eating. Change your lifestyle, don't go on a diet. Eat less junk/fast/fried foods, cut back on soda pop and focus on eating a variety of foods including fruits and vegetables, but also lean proteins (chicken, turkey, fish, lean beef, plain greek yogurt), healthy fats (olive oil, avocado, nuts, hummus), brown rice, oatmeal, milk, low fat cheese, whole wheat bread, etc. The less junk food you eat, the less you're going to want. Try eating just one 'bad' food each day, then go for once every other day and then just 2-3 times a week.

You also should really start eating something for breakfast. This gets your metabolism going in the morning. Try some plain greek yogurt with fresh berries (NOT the fruit on the bottom kinds - that stuff has as much sugar as a candy bar), or a couple scrambled eggs with low fat cheese and whole wheat toast. Something with some carbs/fat/protein to get your day started off right.

If you feel hungry, ask yourself, "Do I want some vegetables or just junk food?" If the answer is junk food, then you're not really hungry. Drink a big glass of water and wait 20 minutes. If you still feel hungry, but not for vegetables, then go do something else to keep yourself busy like text a friend or get out of the house and go for a walk. Also, you could go with your parents next time they go to the grocery store and remind them to skip the junk food and get more of the things I mentioned above. Good luck!
