How to Lose Baby Weight After Two Years

Recommended Answer:

Weight loss takes time. My word for you would be to NEVER lose more than 2 lbs a week, it isnt healthy for your body. NEVER EVER skip a meal! You'll end up gaining the weight right back. I always eat about 6 meals a day (sounds crazy right?) but actually they are really small meals. That way i never over eat. Also im never starving during that time but I also watch my calories.In case you didnt know you have to burn more calories than you consume. Here is a good website to get exactly how many calories you should take in at your age, weight, and activity level, use it! http://www.my-calorie-counter.com/calorie_calculator.aspthere are about 3500 calories in one pound. So use that website get your info and when you work out try to burn about 500 more calories than you have consumed... Does that make since? Ex:) if your calorie intake in 1,500, you should try to burn 2,000 calories while working out. I know that sounds diffucult to do. But if you have a gym near by i would sign up and use the work out machines that work your full body.. Like the eliptical (not sure if i spelled that right) use the gazelle, just anything that works your full body to help burn those calories.mentally just dont even bother buying junk food, stick with fruits and fresh veggies. your body needs Iron to keep stamina so make sure to eat meat. I personally would rather eat fruit that junk. I LOVE FRUIT!also what i do for myself mentally is I set small goals for weight loss for myself. Instead of saying" I want to lose 30 pounds in 4 months" start slow. lmonthly plans are key say things like "in the month of september i want to lose 2 pounds a week." there are about 4 weeks in every month, so thats about 8 lbs in a month. THATS A GREAR START!!... That means by the end of october you would have lost 16 lbs. Thats amazing!!Stay motivated dont give up. And remember there are no excuses on why you cant work out...if you dont mind i would love to share with you this video i watch when i dont feel like working out... Its a short video hope you watch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlTlLaVVHko&feature=youtube_gdata_player

  • I was having problems with losing weight for a while. I tried going low carb and it worked great! I tried to go less than 20 grams of carbs a day. However, I have gained weight over the summer so I will be doing this again very soon! Good luck and I hope I helped.
  • Stop with the diet pop. Artificial sweeteners are really bad for you. Eating less is the only way to lose weight or burning more calories.Unless you go without eating to the point of actual stomach grumbling hunger there is little chance you will lose weight.There is a difference between food and nutrition.
  • Studied have shown that the sweeteners in diet soda, make you crave sweets even more. Cut out ALL soda.You are doing good with the exercise.I wish you well.
  • Cut out all soda. Diet isn't good for you. The chemical aspartame isn't very good for you body either (found is all diet drinks & chewing gum) Your exercise if fine.I'd join a gym near you and start going to workout more, you should be aiming to burn more than you consume.Try eating 4-6 small meals throughout the day, it'll. cause a spike in your metabolism and you'll burn the fats in the food quicker.
  • For weight loss, dieting is more effective than exercise. Reducing your intake of junk sugar will help as in items 22 and 106 in http://www.rheumatic.org/sugar.htm The natural sugars in fruits are OK as they are metabolised to glucose slowly due to their high fiber content. Fruits are low in calories and are not fattening. Most fruits are metabolism boosting foods and most vegetables as well and that helps for weight loss.

how can I lose 30 pounds in 5 months?

I'm 5'4 and 150 pound female. I'm tired of being overweight and I need a way to lose 25-30 pounds in 5 months. No pills or starvation please.

How to Create a Meal Plan to Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:

That should be easy because you have a realistic time frame in mind. Now here's a great programthat was given to me by a nutritionist - it's easy, it works and there's no pills or starvation. Basicallyyou eat five times a day, and you use your dinner plate as a guide to what to eat. For lunchand dinner, divide your dinner plate in half (mentally) and fill up one half with salad with low caldressing. Divide the other half in half and put protein (meat, fish, poultry, eggs) on one sideand a grain like rice or kashe or lentils or quinoa on the other. In between meals, eat fruit.You can eat up to three pieces a day. If you get hungry, nosh on veggies. DO NOT ADDBREAD TO THIS MIX. For breakfast, eat eggs or cereal (like oatmeal) and a piece of fruit(no juice - too much sugar). You will lose about 5-7 pounds the first week and will lose atleast one pound or 1 1/2 pounds a week. This is a very easy diet to follow when you eat out.Just don't cheat - even one cookie will rock the weight-loss boat. Good luck!

  • This is really difficult to do, but it's a completly safe way to loose as much as you can. For 30 days (or until disired weight is achived), ONLY eat the following Fruits (but no avacodo) Veggitables Beans (no more than a cup daily) Nuts (no more than a handful daily) Brown rice (no more that 6 cups weekly) Water Coffee Plain, unsweetened soy milkDon't eat any meat or animal products, bread, sugar, salt, or oil. Only drink water, coffee (no sweetner, not even zero calerie ones), or vegitable juice.It's tough, but trust me, it works. You can eat as much as the aproved non limited things as you want. Also, exercice.Source(s):I do this once a year, works wonders.
  • I'm done with my weight loss journey and completely happy with how I feel and how I look right now however losing weight is a challenge for anyone and even losing 5 pounds and keeping it off isn't an easy task. Also I bet you didn't know that 5 pounds of fat is about the size of 8 cheese burgers? That alone should be enough to make anyone want to get on the ball and start a change for the better. Weight loss can be really easy to learn but the problem is nobody wants to put the required effort that is needed to actually do it, instead people continually look for (easy) ways to do it. If there was an easy way to lose weight I don't think 35% of Americans would be obese. There was a time when I also wanted to lose weight and was tired of starting diets only to lose motivation and give up just a few weeks later after seeing no results. However, let me tell you it is literally one of the easiest things you will ever learn once you find a good and reputable place to learn it from and I say that only because the world is filled with magic diet pills, liquid flush diets and a thousand other quick fixes that promise xx pounds of weight loss in the first week and even though it is impossible they know you're going to do it because your desperate. I have probably tried every diet pill, liquid flush diet, and ab rocket machine known to man and have had no success with any of them nor do I know anyone that has ever had any success with them. I have also tried starving myself which works very well for the first few weeks' right before your metabolism comes to a complete stop and eating just the tiny bit makes you gain weight and you end up weighing more than you did before you started starving yourself. Companies promote weight loss to make money not to get people healthy again and that's because they know you're not going to be a customer and buy their products if you're no longer fat. http://fatloossfactor.com is a site I want you to go to when you have 10 or 20 minutes to spare and I want you to sit down and watch his video on weight loss. He helps people every day to lose weight I have never seen someone as committed as him and that will go so far out of his way to help someone. His weight loss program is one of the best I have ever had the enjoyment of doing and it is without doubt the best success I have ever had with any weight loss program. I also couldn't be happier with my body right now and I have never felt this wonderful in my whole life. In the end you just got to remember to stick with it and stay confident in yourself and in no time you can achieve the results you have always wanted. It's not hard to lose weight but most people have a hard time staying motivated and 9 times out of 10 it was because they weren't really committed from the beginning. Anyways I hope I helped you and I hope you make the commitment to change your body and life. Remember it's not easy to take the first step but you did, you're here right now taking it and the rest of the steps will fall into place. Have a wonderful day.

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

Recommended Answer:
The key to weight loss is simple: burn more calories then you take in. That doesn''t mean you have to give up delicious food, it just means you have to work out more. A good way to do this is to drink more water (it flushes out all the toxins in your body) and walk around more.

I''m 14, why do i gain weight so quickly?

I''m 14 and I don''t understand how i gain weight so quickly. Like sometimes I can gain 5 pounds in a day, i count my calories and i only eat like 300-400 more than i burn off and i literally gain that much weight no joke. I dont understand why. But I have restricted my calories in the past and lost a lot of weight but I have recovered and its been a year since then. I don''t get it.

How to Get Motivated to Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:
First of all that 5 lbs in one day,
do you weigh yourself in the same place at the same time each day?
there are all sorts of variables here.

Think about your "weight" as just a number,
what really matters is can you Function, that is
can you run, ride a bike, climb stairs ( or? ) whatever ... rejoice in what works.

  • The dramatic weight gain is probably just weight from the food you ate, I mean it has mass when it goes in your stomach so the mass will stay until it''s broken down.

  • Try weighing yourself weekly.. You only lose weight if you BURN MORE CALORIES THAN YOU EAT... It also can be alot of water weight..
  • If you are eating more calories than you burn, you will gain weight every day. That''s just how humans work. You can''t eat an excess of calories unless you are okay with gaining weight.
  • Well if its all healthy it burns but also stays and builds muscles like maybe on your butt or something. If you are not sore a lot it is because your muscles are getting exactly what they need to help them recover
