• Your BMI is 35.6A normal BMI is between 18-25.Anything over 30 is considered obese.So, according to your BMI, you're obese, not just fat.Edit- It's BMI that matters more- Body Mass Index. You may not LOOK obese, but because of your height and weight ratio and your BMI number, you are considered obese. We're not being mean- you just asked a question and we're giving you an answer. If you didn't want your feelings hurt, don't ask the question! And you said in the title "HONEST ANSWERS".
• If you're 5ft 8 and 234 lbs you're fat. Extremely fat, 100% obese to be honest. You aren't large because you think you have a large frame, you have a large frame because you're fat. For reference, a 234 lb male at that height is either fat or on steroids because that's huge.
• You know what? do not please society, if you feel good about yourself then AWESOME. If you prefer to watch tv all day and eat rice and cakes PERFECT. That's YOU. Yes, eating vegetables, fruit, protein, doing exercise is the reason why you have legs, arms, a body. But do what you want to do; it's your life and it's up to you to chose how to live it. If you think you should lose weight, then lose it. If you want to gain weight then gain weight. But at the end of the day, your health is important; do whatever you want to do, but having a low body fat percentage (BF%) is better than having a high % . It feels great to be able to run and not get tired at the first 30 seconds. But everyone chooses to live different.
• Your BMI is 35.6Sorry to break the news but you are obese.

jogging is an excellent exercise because it let you lose weightevenly throughout your whole body. If you want to lose weight inspecific areas, you should target them with exercises. If they areyour problem areas, they will be very difficult to tone. You will haveto work double on them. The best approach is this:1. Lower/control your daily calorie intake (control for normalweight, 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 astool, and put your toes under something (piece of heavy furniture,for example). In your hands hold a little dumbbell. Please, make surethat it is not very heavy, start with one kilo, for example, or youwill damage your back and spine! Slowly move the upper part of yourbody back, until it's parallel with the ground. Stop for a second andmove it back to the sitting position. Repeat ten times. Every week addto the number of repetitions. You will see the results in a week,guaranteed! Your stomach would be flatter and stronger. Dumbbells do wonders. Much better than thesecrunches - I came up to three hundreds and there was no results ATALL. With the dumbbells you will see it in a week.

You have a young, developing body that if you put too much stress on it can cause serious damage. There are zillions way for loosing weight and some will definetely work for you. Im just gonna give if a few things, nothing extreme, because that way u'd have more to loose than to gain, trust me.- cut on calories (read labels, if it's high in sugar and/or fat.. it will probably make you fat. except good fats! like in avocados and nuts)- move more. dont take that elevator ride, take stairs instead. go to the mall by foot.- introduce more fruits & veggies into your diet- drink plenty of water! if you feel thirst it's already late! - get enough sleep- take some basic suplements, these WILL NOT do wonders and don't even go there because you will get dissapointed. BUT some fat burning pills that increase metabolism can slightly make the weight loss faster.
• your perfectly healthy and you don't need to loose 10 lbs.

How to Calculate Calorie Intake to Lose Weight

Diet And Exercising For Weight LossObesity is now being called an epidemic in the health community. In fact, it will soon be the leading cause of preventable death in the United States, even ahead of cigarette smoking. Obesity leads to type two diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease or stroke and even an increased risk of cancer. With all of these health risks, as well as the general improvement in the quality of life that can occur, losing weight is one of the best things that you can do for yourself.No matter what we would like to believe, there simply isn't a magic solution to losing weight. The body will shed excess fat when it needs more calories to function through the demands you place on it in a given day than the amount of calories that you feed it. It's that simple. So, in order to lose weight, you need to decrease the number of calories that you eat as well as increase the amount that you burn.There is a wide range of options to choose from when looking for a weight loss program. All of them often spend a lot of time explaining what to eat, in what amounts and even at what times or in what combinations. But few of them emphasize the importance of exercise – not just for losing weight, but for your general health and wellbeing. Exercise is vital when trying to lose weight for several reasons:First, as you start to eat less, your metabolism will slow down somewhat. Exercising helps to elevate your metabolism back to an efficient level.Second, as mentioned, exercise burns more calories so that you can lose weight faster and stay motivated in your efforts.Third, exercise actually releases endorphins, chemicals that keep your mood elevated.Exercise doesn't have to mean spending hours at the gym or straining through exhausting workouts. In fact, in order for you to stick with it on the long run, exercising should be something that you enjoy. Start by increasing your activity level in an overall way. Take the stairs when you can. Park further from the mall door when you go shopping. Go for a walk in the park or through a neighborhood you love and bring a dog or a friend along for company. Take dance or martial arts lessons.Once you become more active in general, you'll find it easier and more natural to move into regular exercise. Which you'll need to do eventually in order to get regular, noticeable health benefits. You need to raise your heart rate to a fat burning level and keep it there for at least 20 minutes, 3 times or more a week. However, if you don't want to go to a gym, there are other options. Videos and DVDs are now available in all kinds of exercise types. That way you can change your routine whenever you want so that you don't get bored with what you're doing. Try a range of aerobics, kickboxing, yoga, or pretty much any activity you want right in the comfort of your own home.If you have physical limitations that would keep you off from exercising, you can still find a way to increase your activity level. Water aerobics is a wonderful option for those who have joint problems or limited mobility because it relieves the pressure on your body that your weight provides. But you still get the resistance to challenge your muscles from the water. There are even classes and videos available that let you exercise in a seated position.Whatever kind of exercise you choose, it's important to stay motivated and keep it fun. Try gathering a group together to make it a social event. Or get a pedometer, a device that tracks how far you walk, and see how many miles you can walk a week. Make a competition amongst your friends or family members and treat the winner with something special (not food related!). Make the experience of exercising something that you look forward to, and it will soon become a regular part of your healthier lifestyle.

• yess,i use to eat less everyday and i lost about 10kg in a month ..
• no you also have to burn calories too
• well you have to eat less the the amount that you usually eat..... i lost 24 pounds in a month by just eating raw vegetables i think i ate less then 400 calories i also drank tons of water. .
• Try to eat 1200-1500 per day and you will lose 2-3 lbs per week. Also drink plenty of water since our bodies cannot metabolize without it. Good luck!
• A good diet and exercise is key.. I suggest running a mile or two everyday. or you can even do more if you feel up to it. You should not be eating junk food high in sugar, and try not to go over a 1250 calories. a tricky way to do this is eat 4 meals with 250 calories each, that's 1000 calories. plus 250 of a beverage (milk possibly or whatever is ok for your type of diet)
• Well in 'I'm a celebrity get me out here' TV program they live in the Aussie Jungle for like 3 weeks and live on rations. When they come out and weighed they have always lost about 8 + pounds (some) some even more & some less without excercise as they're just sitting around a camp fire.

How can I help my sick goldfish? (staying at bottom tank on side, not eating, fighting to swim)?

Hi, I've had a little gold fish for over a half year now, and he is usually very very active and swimming all over the place. He is the only fish in a filtered 1gallon tank. I feed him a little bit of food twice a day (flakes) and he's never seem to be sick. He stays in a 74-80 degree environment though usually it's towards the middle of that. He usually is always so excited for food. Earlier today I noticed he was just laying at the bottom of his tank not doing much. I can tell he's breathing, and whenever he sees me he gets excited and tries to swim around like he used to, but he just kind of gives up and floats back to the bottom of the tank. At first he tried to get at the food because it was feeding time when I noticed this, but he just gave up and kinda floated to the bottom. I tried the boiled shelled peas for him, and I can't tell if he's been eating those or not, I see most of them still just on the bottom of his tank. Now it almost seems like something is wrong with his swim bladder because he looks like he's struggling to stay swimming straight and when he floats to the bottom he lays on his side now. I have been checking to see if he's still breathing, and he is for now. Whenever I walk up to him he does attempt to swim around but then like I said, kind of just lets himself float back down. He's never had trouble swimming before and he's never been sick. I really can't afford any medicine for a goldfish, I do have some medicine for my betta fish like melafix and aquarium salt and...I think lifeguard tabs and ammonia clear. I haven't checked the ammonia levels but I did a 60% water change two days ago, and he's had his water changed before so I'm not sure if it was that that made him sick.Any advice to help the little guy?

How to Lose Weight Without Getting Saggy Skin

Recommended Answer:

I really hope you that "1gallon" is a typo and should say 10 gallons...your fish is prolly too small for the space if its a one gallon aquarium! Hes a goldfish as he grows he produces more waste thus making it impossible to keep up with the waste he is producing with water changes and such. And you should NEVER do a 60 percent water change especially if you suspect he is sick! That can stress him out and could lead to death! I have no clue how hes still even alive!If he is indeed in fact in a 10 gallon tank that's good...not great a common goldfish can get as big as 6 inches! Its starting tank is 40 gallons...yea if the goldfish has a fan like tail that's a oranda goldfish and is fine for the time being in a 10 gallon but I would recommend a upgrade SOON. Here are indeed a few answers to your question: Water Condition If you usually change 60-70 percent of the water it could mean a lot of spikes in nitrites/nitrates that can ultimately lead to this problem of the fihs sitting on the bottom. Also access ammonia in the tank I would def. recommend ammonia alert its a little gage that you stick to the side of the tank and it reads off the ammonia levels in the tank but if you just did a 60 percent water change I doubt there is much ammonia left in the tank. Go get the water tested at a petstore just to be sure if something is up ask the person who tested it what to do. Water Current If the water current from your filter is too strong it will cause the goldfish to sit at the bottom Swim Bladder DiseaseIf your goldfish has a malfunction of its swim bladder, it will cause your goldfish to sit on the bottom float upside down etc. Quick cure? Feed him shelled pees! Basically the goldfish is constipated this can happen by over feeding and such. The Pees work as a laxative. Fast him for a day then the second day start the pee diet ONLY pees do this for one more day then slowly introduce food back into his diet only if he looks better. GOOD LUCK!!

Other Answers:

• Get him a friend from the same breed and quick if he's not eating it's not good.
• He needs a much bigger tank, goldfish need a minimum of a 10 gallon tank per goldfish, the water temp is too hot, goldfish do best art around 60-70 degree temperature, and a 60% water change is enough to shock a fish. If he lives Id get a bigger tank set up asap, and get the water tested, take a sample to petco or petsmart they water test for free. simple answer, too much water was changed, the water temp is too hot, and the tank is way too small.
• One problem I see is the temperature you're keeping him at. Goldfish need to be in the 64-74 degree area. Anything above and their matabolism shoots up and their life is cut down.
• Your tank is WAY TOO SMALL!!! And for a goldfish the temp should be 65-75 at most! Move him into a five gallon that will help.

Make it Fun to Lose Weight Naturally and Healthily!

Recommended Answer:
Some people just have a faster metabalism than others, which is why they can sit around and eat awful food and never gain a pound, while someone can eat relatively healthy, and still not lose weight or anything.

It is believed that drinking a bunch of water of you eat can help dillude what you ate and make it easier for your body to digest, also water cleans out your body.

Good things to have that really detox your body are things like water, green tea, cranberry juice, and foods with a lot of fiber, such as oatmeal

• Your friend doesn''t digest food faster than you, she has a faster metabolic rate than you (the rate at which your body burns fat).
  Naturally skinny people have really metabolisms, their bodies burn fat really, really fast. I know it sucks and it''s not fair but it''s true.
• Not necessarily I am 5.4 ish. I weight 103 which is apparently under weight for my age (I am 18) How ever I eat well, Two eggs in the morning, a banana, two rice cakes, sandwhich or left overs, yogurt and a apple for my generally work lunch, I get home and eat super made by me generally meat and vegetables, and some snacks during the night sometimes, and I treat myself especially on week ends.
