How to Set a Weekly Weight Loss Goal

Recommended Answer:

Losing weight and gaining muscle are two entirely different things that require very different routines. You can either have one or the other, or have both and risk losing weight and gaining muscle very slowly. I would say you should start to lose weight first in order for your muscles to pop when you start to work them out. You should eat around 1500 calories a day and either step that up or down depending on how you feel at the end of the day. (your trying to go on a diet not starve yourself) I would go for cardio every other day to begin with maybe just a mile if you aren't that strong of heart or even 3 miles if you feel you need a challenge.By the end of the month, you'll have noticed you have dropped some significant poundage. Also at the end of the month, this is where you need to step it up. Start to jog 4 times a day and try to go for 5 miles. If this is too hard for you, you can always go slower or jog fewer miles. From here, once you feel comfortable with this routine, step it up, then again, then again. And repeat this until you are satisfied with your weight.This is where the real fun begins. A bodybuilder needs to eat a ton of calories in order for his muscles to grow to their full extent. Here, you need to keep an eye on protein, carbs, calories, and some vitamins. I would recommend you buy 5 or 10 pound weights to start with and if you don't have the money to buy weights, you could just fill some gallon jugs with water and use those. I won't get into detail about how to start working out, so I'd recommend watching sixpackshortcuts on youtube or just simply type, bodybuilding for beginners in google and see what pops up.Good luck

How to Lose Weight Without Counting Calories

Recommended Answer:

Bad news: You're not going to visibility see results in a week. Good news: You can lose weight! But if you are that determined to lose weight, you'll do whatever it takes, even waking up earlier than normal. Just start off with simple exercises that you'd do in gym class and eat healthier. If running is too difficult, just start by walking. Always find an excuse to be up and about. It'll feel impossible at first but it'll get easier as time goes by. When I was in high school, I couldn't go two laps around the gym without wheezing and my side hurting. I LOATHED it. After about a month or two, I could jog at a steady pace for the entire 10 minutes without tiring out. You gotta MAKE yourself do it even if you don't want to, or are too tired. It's like getting up for school. You hate it, but you manage to do it because you have to in order to go to school. You're gonna hate what you need to do to lose weight because it's not easy, but you gonna have to to see results. Key phrase: Self discipline.

How to Jog to Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:

You're not eating enough/you're not eating a varied diet. You really need to be eating fruits and veggies, lean proteins, whole grains, healthy fats...you won't be making a healthy lifestyle change doing what you're doing. People who make short-term attempts to lose weight are much more likely to fail.Educate yourself as far as health goes. Read food blogs. Learn to love healthy, delicious salads and bakes and eggs and deliciousness. Exercise more. Laugh more. I'm tired of reading these questions from people who just don't know what they're doing: and it's not your fault. To lose weight, it's 80% diet 20% exercise. Eat clean healthy foods, drink water, work out. That's it.Good luck!(:

How can i try to gain weight?

I have high metabolism and i eat alot but gaining weight just seem impossible im afraid im too skinny i know its usually the other way around with girls but any suggestions on how i can gain weight?

The 2009 Fattest Cities in America - Can the People in Those Cities Lose Weight Quickly?

Recommended Answer:
If you have a high metabolism and is looking to gain weight healthily, the key is not only simply to eat a lot. The key is to eat a lot of carbohydrates many times a day, sleep well as well as doing the right exercise. Only then will you be able to see significant weight gain that will stay on your frame and not be lost when you stop. Here is what I do suggest to get your diet in place.

Diet is the fundamental key and usually the first thing most people who are skinny will stumble upon first. However, the usual habit of eating a lot in one sitting bares no reason. This is because in a skinny person''s body like yours, it is highly likely that the body will feel overwhelmed by the sudden influx of so many nutrients and your digestive system will simply push the excess down the line into excrement. The key is to use carbohydrates is because the body will not do that to this particular energy source. Also, it provides the body with energy that will last 3-4 hours and thus require less loading time compared to other energy sources. Also, eating things like potatoes, pasta, noodles, biscuits, bread and rice 6 times a day with an interval of 2-3 hours in between will ensure that at no time in the day your body is deprived from an energy source, thus allowing you to gain and maintain the weight you have. If preparing 6 meals a day is daunting, perhaps you can try drinking 500ml of milk in between your meal for a total of 3 times a day. Increase the amount of milk you drink by 100ml every week until you see a 1 pound weight gain on the scale. This is the magic number of calories you need in order to gain weight so make sure you maintain this diet.

The next thing to look into is also a lifestyle habit and it is sleeping. So many people neglect sleep and that is what separates the successful gainers from the not successful one. The key is not only to sleep enough but to also sleep well. This means no interruptions or waking up in the middle of the night. If you can achieve your usual regime of sleeping and waking up yourself every single day, you are definitely acing this factor very well. If time does not permit, simply do this on weekends and ensure that your weekdays are still filled with long rest at night.

The last thing most skinny people will never think about is exercising to gain weight. The misconception is that exercising will cause me to lose weight so why should I do it? This is because if you simply rely on a regime of sleep and diet, you will gain fat which will be lost when your calorie intake is lower or your sleeping pattern is compromise. This will lower your weight faster than you can say wait a minute. Also, there are too many workouts on the internet and books that promise gains but none actually works like http://gohforth.com. That is a workout dedicated to help skinny people to gain weight and I personally vouch for that.

• Lots of proteins.. dont eat junk food because your metabolism will just reject it.
• Eat lots of carbs. Bread, rice, potatoes, pasta, etc.
• proteins and lean meant , eat stuff and snacks like trail mix, beans and other stuff, nuts are good ,also theres this one secret nutt most dont know about the Brazilian nutt (shhh keep it on the low dont tell anybody lol) it NATURALLY enhances testosterone , never take steroids that shit is for pussys peace :) good luck hard work dedication and diet
• try taking appetite pills that will help increase your appetite and eat protein and carbs...but do it in a good way!

Am I anorexic? This is a serious question?

Hi, we''ll I''m really concerned about this question, and I''m wondering if I might be anorexic?
Back when I was a kid, I was chubby, but didnt really notice or care. It was until freshman year in high school when I started to notice that guys my age were a lot skinnier. So I decided to go on a diet, and I restricted my caloric intake to 1200 per day. I started to loose weight slowly. But I felt it wasn''t fast enough and so I started eating 1,000 calories per day. I progressed for the worse. I started walking a little over two hours everyday to burn calories, and started skipping meals. I was eating 800 calories a day now.I was horrified to eat food. I was aware of all the calories in every food. Everyone was flooding me with compliments, and I finally reached my goal weight within two months. I went from 155 lbs to 120 lbs. But this wasn''t skinny enough for me now.
Summer break came, and I decided to get a "fit" body before school started again. I constantly starved myself, but would constantly binge out of hunger and felt horrible when I did. I felt fat. Everyone told me I wasn''t. Arguments with my mother about food became common. I didnt care.
School started Annd I was still 120lbs. Everyone was amazed at how I lost so much weight over the summer as well, and how tall I had gotten it. I had gotten taller, but stayed at the same weight. I was happy of the compliments, but felt fat.
Now, a year after I initially lost weight, I feel obese. I have started cutting meals again. I look at all the skinny people and feel fat. I''ve started to work out now, and went on an extreme diet. My friends have show concern about my eating habits, but I don''t care. I just want to be skinny. I am on a 1,000 calorie diet, at least 30 minutes of exercise per day, and have successfully lost 4lbs in a little over a week and a half. My goal weight is 105lbs, and I am 5''6. I feel fat, I don''t know what to do,.I want to be skinny. I feel fat.But BMI''s say I''m healthy weight. Am I anorexic?

Why You Must Exercise to Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:
Not exactly but you shouldnt be starving yourself if you didnt know this but when you skip meals or start starving yourself you Gain More Weight because your body is starving and needs food. And plus you shouldnt care about what other people look like and dont compare yourself to other people BE Happy with yourself :) Right now im losing weight but im just watching my calories like you too but dont skip any meals and defintiely dont Starve yourself!! Anorexia can make you very very sick. And the problem seems to be mostly that you have a low self esteem and its hard espically when your in high school becasue you see guys or girls and wanna look good to but thats why you should just take one day at a time :) Hope this helped and i hope you get better :)

• You might be, ask a doctor.
• it seems like you have a problem. http://nhlbisupport.com/bmi/ you are very underweight you need to gain about 30 pounds. if you feel sick its probably because your underweight. you need therapy for your self esteem or it will take you to very bad places
• I dont think you are anorexic but i think you may have a different type of ed. You should talk to someone like a trusted adult, guidance coucilor or dr. what you are doing is not healthy, and its slowing your metaolism down. you may be losing weight now, but you will start gaining since you messed up your metabolism. 1000 calories isnt cutting back too much because i only eat 400 calories a day, but still you need to talk to someone.

Why People Want to Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:
you need 1.5 grams of protein for each pound u weigh
an also 20x your body weight overall calories
an lift heavy

• junk food will not help with muscle gain so drop that (of course have some every now and again). You want to add calories by adding more protein to your diet (meat, eggs, milk, beans, peanut butter, etc).
• Start out with cardio to get your heart rate going do at least 20 minutes of cardio before working out every day and 40 minutes of lifting going all out every single day, monday wednesday friday do upper half of your body (arms=biceps triceps and grip) neck and abs, tuesday thursday saturday do your back and legs with sunday being your resting day, as for what to eat: eat lean meats like turkey tuna fish chicken buffalo shark cartilage, whatever you like to eat out of those, buffalo is the leanest meat you can eat, vegetables, stay away from fast food and chips and anything with grease sugar or chocolate, good luck bud just remember stay focused even when you feel like giving up just remember not only are you getting the body you want but youre adding days to your life.
• Just change your diet. Eat protein and vegetables and you will be fine. Workout. Find an activity that you be consistent with. Your body is changing and if you stay consistent with a healthy diet, work hard and dedicate yourself, you will burn the fat and build muscle.
• keep up the good work, what your doing is all you need to do. People try roids and thats fine as long as you do your homework.
• I was wondering whether there was a quick way to burn off calories without increasing my muscles?
• You should probably be eating about 2,500 calories a day at least. I would focus on eating a lot of protein and carbohydrates for energy.
• you dont need extra calories to repair muscle, just drink a protein shake
