fitness magazineself magazineshape magazinewhich is better?
Answer:
I personally subscribe to Self magazine, because it also has tips on how to dress your body shape. I buy Shape magazine from time to time, that's a really good one. I don't care too much for Fitness. So, if you want more exercises, go for Shape. If you want exercise and overall health, go for Self. I'd drop Fitness.
Go to the bookstore (Borders or Barnes and Noble) and get copies of each, and see which you like better before subscribing.
I really have no idea, but why not subscribe to all 3 of them?? I get all my magazine subscriptions from Delta Publishing, have for over 20 years! always the best and lowest rates...check their website and see for yourself!!
I've read all of them, and I'd rank them in the following order
1. self
2. shape
3. fitnessSelf is my favorite, but my second favorite is Women's Health..
i get all 3... but my favorite is Shape
i subscribe to shape and i like that but i do tend to buy fitness even though i get shape so both are great but shape has more fashion and annoying other non workout junk
good luck
Self Magazine
I am subscribed to all three, the one I like the most is shape magazine, second is self magazine, third fitness. Shape magazine has a lot of articles in it that I found super useful,
hope this helps!!

I want to stay the same weight, so in addition to my my 1800 calorie diet, how many steps a day should i walk?
i want to stay the same weight, so in addition to my my 1800 calorie diet, how many steps a day should i walk? roughtly?
i dont have much time to do regular exercise but am willing to do lots of walking, how many steps roughly to stay my same weight in addition to an 1800 Kal a day lifestyle?
Answer:
If you keep to what you are doing right now then you should stay the same weight.
If you increase the amount of calories you consume each day then you would need to walk more to burn these off.
The recommended average daily step count to stay healthy is 10,000.
If you want to stay the same weight do the same thing you are doing now.
10.000 steps is considered healthy for a daily amount HOWEVER age also comes in to this if you are a teen and early twenties you can add on another 5000 per day.Buy a step toner as this will not only increase and help you gain steps but also tone you up well. It also is easy done five mins here and there five mins you can do 500 steps on one.
hi 10 ,000 is the normal ,but if you cant do this buy a mini trampoline called a trampette and walk on there ,its brilliant and good fun xx

I want to start toning my legs and my stomach areas.?
Just curious as to what I need to do and for how long. I heard that sit-ups are really bad for your back, but then I also heard that if you do 200 a day for a week you'll start getting abs. If you know of a website that has excersise plans that would also be a great help.Note: This isn't mainly for me to loose weight seeing as I don't weight that much, just to loose a few cm around my thighs for summer and add muscle.
Answer:
Using weights when doing squats is great for legs and buttocks. Squats do more for the legs than any one exercise. As for stomach you can do what I call modified set ups. Instead of rising all the way to your knees you simply raise your upper body off the floor and stop when you feel the most tension and then slowly lower to the floor and repeat. Also leg lifts are great for the stomach also. There are so many books on the subject just go to the book store and look through a bunch of them. When you find one that you like or one that makes the most sense to you for what you want for yourself buy it or read it and use what you've learned.
You must be a girl because you are worried about your thighs. Why do girls worry about thighs? Your thighs are perfect. That's my favorite part of the woman's body.
Look at some Pilate's books too. Pilate's is like a combination Yoga and Aerobics or Calisthenics, great for toning and staying in shape.
Good Luck and love your thighs.

Answer:

I want to start running. How should I start?
I'd like to lose some weight from running - I'd like to aim for distance, not intensity.
How much should I start out with? I'm not completely unathletic (I do dance and aerobics) but I've never done a running plan before, so I'd like to start out small and work my way up.
And do you have any pointers for improving stamina?
Thanks!
Answer:
First, get a physical to make sure you are in good health. Second, make sure you streatch very well. Not just your legs, but your whole body. When you are ready to start, DON'T set a goal based on distance (1 mile, 2 miles, etc.). Set yourself a goal based on TIME. Jog for 10 minutes out and 10 minutes back. You'll find that your distance will increase as you start to get used to running. Do that for a week or two and then increase it to 15 minutes out and back. This works better than distance since because you won't get frustrated if you don't make a certain milage. Good luck.
i started running last summer. you should try with one or two miles a day..keep hydrated and pace yourself. try taking an ipod it will take ur mind off of it..gradually work your way up

I want to start running. Any tips? Should I drink water before I run?
I have never been into running. I always gave up right away but I am finally determined to beat my fear of running. Any tips for me? Should I drink water before I run? I am guessing I shouldn't drink a LOT becaue it might slow me down. Please give me some tips. Thank you
Answer:
1) Find a good bra (one of those for high impact)
2) Get a good pair of shoes
3) Don't drink too much water before because you'll feel like a steam iron but drink plenty of water at the end of your workout.
4) start by doing intervals, for instance you walk .1 mile and run .1 mile, it'll help you burn more calories and you'll feel less tired
5) don't forget to breathe properly.
Your body will need fuel for running. You get fuel from carbohydrates. So you want to eat whole grains, like soy pasta, about 60-90 minutes before running. A serving is 1/2 cup, so don't over load your body.Also, have a banana -- the potassium helps reduce your chance of legs cramping up.Make sure you are hydrated before running. If you feel thirsty, then it's already too late and you're dehydrated. Drink water throughout your run. And remember to pace yourself. Start out with a slow jog combined with an alternating fast walk every few minutes. Do this for the first week. Then move to an all slow jog. Then start picking up the pace until you can run the distance, whether it be 3 miles or 5 miles.
do you have an mp3 player or an ipod?
something that helps me when i run is listening to music.
take a bottle with you but dont drink too much while running . i wouldnt drink any beofre if i were you
First off, start slow, or you will burn out and never want to run again. For example, walk for maybe 5 minutes, then jog for 2, walk for 5, jog for 2 (or however many you feel like you can do) until you're gradually decreasing your walking time and increasing your running time and speed. I personally do not drink water before I run; some people do. It gives me bad side cramps. But definitely drink water AFTER. Also, make sure you are wearing running shoes.
Yes, you shouldn't drink alot before running. Especially don't eat too soon before running. If you have never run before you might experience a few cramps. this is normal. If your determined you can work through them and in a week or so you should feel like your getting in shape. Runner's world magazine is a good resource on tips and articles. Get a good pair of shoes and warm up before you start. Good luck and run forrest run!
Don't! it will not only slow you down but it may also cause you stomach ache. You can drink water at least 30 min. before and while you are running drink little by little so you wont dry your mouth and suffer dehydration. It will also help your excretory system function well.
Eat a good high proteen breakfast. Stretch first. Start off slow. Drink small amounts of water at a time when your running. Set goals for your self and when your body says stop don't, running is 90% what your brain says you can do, you will soon get a good pace. Don't run on a track, run on a trail, the trac is hoter, ther is nothing to look at, and it is ugly.
my personal experiance is not to drink a lot before you go. It makes me sick to my stomach. The first time I went to the gym I ran a mile and drank a bottle of water while I was doing it and threw up 3 times when I got home, it makes me weird feeling, but now I just take a small bottle with me and just sip on it, but never big gulps at a time.
I've just seriously started running in the past 6 months or so. One crucial tip I can give is don't expect yourself to run 10 miles a day when you first start! Start off slowly.. 2 miles is plenty. And don't push yourself overly hard at first or else you could injure yourself, or you'll become discouraged. So please, start off slowly and don't set too high expectations. Your mind has to be more prepared than your body when you start.Second tip: don't eat or drink too much before a run. Remember though, that each person is different. I personally run faster and better on a near empty stomach, but some people I know need to eat a protein bar or something before hand. Only you know your body and what it needs. It might be a bit of a trial and error before you get it right. Don't give up! You have to keep trying and pushing yourself to do it. Like I said, don't expect to be the best runner right away. It takes a lot of practice and perseverance. Good luck!
Carry some water along with you.
Eat a high carb breakfast, with protein, 1/2-1 hour before you run. Drinking a lot of water right before will make you "swoosh" in your tummy! LOL
But not bad to drink water or Gatorade before.

I want to start running but I am way out of shape. How do you get started?
Answer:
I swear by this site.It had me running 3 miles in 9 weeks. I had done some light at home aerobics videos before that, but had never run before.http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_3/...
Start out by walking, it's good for you too. Every ten minutes or so throw in 2 minutes of jogging/running. Once you start to get in better shape, you will be able to run more often
Baby steps. Start off small--jog a couple blocks, walk a couple blocks, and repeat for your designated distance or amount of time. Increase the ratio of jogging to walking as you feel stronger and abler.You would be best doing it at a cooler time of day (morning or evening), especially at the beginning, as high temperatures exhaust more easily.Be sure to drink plenty of fluids and stretch before and afterwards!
Hey, i use to compete so I know how hard it can be just getting started. you can just start with a very brisk walk , wearing a sauna suit and maybe some lite weights and then work yourself up to a lite jog ...start off with a walk around the corner or down the street or you could even go to a park and start there , but the most important thing is to start..
Start out at a walk, go into a faster walk, then a light jog, and then into full running mode. Build your body up. Take it slow, until you can ran. Another alternative is to run for so many seconds or minutes and then walk for so many minutes, and then run.and so on. Good luck.
Start off with walking. There is no way your body will be able to excercise properly especially if you are not one to regularly excercise, so you need to start slow. You can't just start running if your body has no training in doing so.Go for a walk for about 15 minutes each day, do that for about a week. Once you get used to that, the next week add 5 minutes, and so on and so on. That way you'll give your body the strength it needs to get used to being excercised.You could even use a video, I use them and the best part is that you can do it in the comfort of your own home and you can do it at your own pace. Try looking around for a few of Leslie Sansone's videos, I use her Walk Two Miles in thirty minutes each day, it really helps!Remember, healthy weight loss is 1-2 pounds a day. Doesn't seem like much, but in the long run it will make a huge difference, plus the weight will actually stay off the healthier you lose it. Combine excercise with healthy eating, and you're off to a great start!Good luck!
thats a real good queston by da way. Anyway the best advice I can give is to build it up. See how far you can run at a pace that suits you then everyday or wenever add a bit more on but DO NOT push yourself to much because then you will just feel exhausted and want to give up. Another thing is to find a running partner so that you'll keep on trying and for the company!! Good luck i hoped i helped!!
i'm way out of shape 2 but u can overcome that. the key to running is strong legs and plenty of stamina. before running, do plenty of jump roping to build up your endurance. then focus on your leg strength by running up and down stairs, calf raises, any gym machine pertaining 2 that area and using ankle weights. after a good week of this, hit the road to test your running, remember to keep your heels away from the ground, your heels will slow u down. start off easy by running one block twice, then increase the number of blocks 2 run without stopping and the numbers of times u do this. in no time, your body will adapt. By the way, if u want, run the blocks with ankle weights, that'll strengthen your legs.
I want to start running any tips?
Answer:
I just began running earlier this week. It's important to begin any activity slowly, to give your body time to adjust to the new activity. Also, be sure to be fitted at a running store for proper shoes, avoid getting cheap shoes or using old ones. The right shoe can protect you from possible injury, while the wrong shoe can cause injury. There are programs designed for beginning runners to help them get ease into running, and avoid overdoing it, or injury. I am following the "Couch to 5K" program on the Cool Running website. It starts out with alternating periods of walking and periods of running. In just 2 months, it will get one to running 3 miles without stopping. The website has an active forum where new runners can ask for advice about running from other runners. There is also information and advice about how to train for more experienced runners. (The above website is free).It's just one of many programs on the internet. If you decide to use such a program, you can find many via Google. Some are more advanced than the one above and some are easier than the one above. Use your judgment of your fitness level as a guide.
Run
do cross country!
It's the best way to get in shape and also the best sport for your body (besides swimming).
or you can run with a friend.
make sure that you have good "running" shoes, start slow and work your way up.. stretch before and after
start slow. If you read runner's world, you see work out programs of 30 miles a week and people running 5 miles in 30 minutes. Really, if you jog 1 or 2 miles at any pace faster than a walk just 2 or 3 times a week, it will provide a lot of cardio benefit.
If you have shortness of breath or rapid pulse or any other problems, see a doctor. You could be aneimic, have a heart problem, artery blockage, etc. Take it easy and err on the side of caution.
if you go to a track, at first walk one lap and then run a lap. do this for a few weeks and then you will be able to run from then on.
JUst do it slowly. Run slowly to the corner for a few days, then around the block and slowly build up to longer distances.
Start slow and work on distance and getting a rhythm first. Best thing to do is get a running buddy that is at the same level that you are. A little friendly competition will help push you more.
get good shoes %26 a running partner.
Don't...walk quickly, save your knees
Make sure in shape to run, get a medical professional to attest that you can run safely and not have adverse medical issues from the exercise. Get a good pair of shoes, have someone from an athletic shoe store determine what shoe fits your running style best, are you a supinator, or pronator, you shoe needs to be suited to this and your weight. Lastly get with a group that runs regularly, it's more fun if you have someone to share it with, and offer advice and tips. Be ready for some aches and pains initially, and some other changes, bowel habits, appetite, energy levels, etc. Good luck in this endeavor
First off, be sure you have good running shoes that actually fit well, and decent running socks. Not only will these be more comfortable, but can help prevent injury.The thing to remember about starting any exercise program is to start slow and work your way up. I've seen too many people hit it too hard at first and burn out because it's too hard and miserable to do. Also, your body needs time to adjust to the new stresses being put on it.What I do when I first start back is go only for a mile, and walk the first half. If you feel you can run after you've reached the half mile mark, that's good, but don't force yourself if you don't feel up to it. You should challenge yourself, but not overdo it.Each week that you run, you should progress a little more. This means either reducing the time of your workout within the same distance, or increasing the distance a little. So, if you currently walk/run a mile in, say, 12 minutes, next week shoot or doing it in 11:30 or so. Make realistic goals that both challenge you but do not burn you out.Remember that exercising exists on a progressive curve. This means that you'll make most of your gains at first, and as you advance, gains will come slower but you should still be making them. Once you're accustomed to running, the basic mindset will be to either add 10% to your distance until a target distance is reached, or beat your previous week's running time within a distance.It's best to vary your workouts from day to day, and to take at least one or two days off a week. The first two weeks at least, depending on your current fitness level, walk/run one mile and don't do anymore than that, even if you think you can - it it takes longer than two weeks to be able to run the full distance, so be it. You should end the workout looking forward to the next one, and this is how you stick with it.Be sure to adjust your caloric intake for the extra activity. Stay well hydrated, warm up well before the run, and cool down and stretch well after the run. I usually walk for up to a quarter of a mile for my warmup.
Start with small goals. Don't overdo yourself trying to go farther than you're ready for. Set a long-term goal. Eventually, try running a marathon.
I want to start running again... But haven't in a long time, How do I start back up?
I am 24 and have a 16 month old. I had a rough preg and really got out of shape. I really want to start running but am not sure exactly how to start. How long should I run, how far, good shoes... etc.
Answer:
Start off slowly by walking first, walk at a comfortable pace for about 45 minutes to an hour a day. After a week or two you can turn it into power walking or a light jog for about 20-30 mins. Rest when its neccesary. But not too long.If you feel naseus/dizzy, you are over exherting yourself, slow it down. Once you feel comfortable with your fast walks turn it into a slow jog. Go at your own pace, dont sprint, breath well, keep your mouth open keep hydrated with water before, inbetween and after your done. After time you can increase the pace of the run, keep the time frame similar though e.g first run being 25 mins of slow paced jog, 2 weeks later your on 30/35 mins of a medium paced jog, 2 weeks after that your doing 30/35 mins of a regular paced jog with 2 or 3 1 minute intervals and drink break (remember at this stage of fitness you want to keep your heart rate elevated for about 15-20 mins of your job so smaller rests this way you increase your metabolic rate and fitness and overcome any plateue's). -Start slow, increase pace over time, take the same route each day so you have a mental fixation on the beggining and end.-Eating some carbs before can help like a steady porridge or oatmeal with your energy. You want some nice light running shoes from nike with a soft and light feel to them.After a while you can increase your pace, as your cardio ability will strengthen, you jneed to start exherting yourself some more to reap the benefits once you get to a normal fitness level.
You have to gradually build up your stamina, at first you should just go on a few long walks, for a week or two. Then start jogging, maybe 1/2 mile to start out with, for another week or two. Then just add 1/2 mile or more each week. For the shoes, I would recommend Nike shox. They help with the pressure, so you wont get shin splints.
I started running about a month ago after about a 10 year hiatus. I located some local races and signed up for a 2 mile race. Then I just started running. The first week I just ran about a mile a day and took 1 or 2 days off. Then I gradually built up. I just ran about 7 miles first thing this morning.I also found a local running club that's active. I began running with them 3 days a week. It's nice to have someone to push you a bit and also it's not as boring. We do a track workout once a week. Light run on Saturday mornings and travel to different areas on Sundays. It's fun, people of different ages and of all abilities. Some of us are participating in a relay this weekend.Go for it. Just put on a pair of shoes and go.As for the 2 mile race, I just did that to give me some motivation and something to aim for. I just ran it at a light pace.
Well for starters, stretching is essential for any kind of exercise if you want to keep running without injury. For shoes I would suggest going to a footlocker or sports store and ask them that question. It is pretty much a preference to what kind of shoes you would wear. Just make sure they have ample support and mobility. Try going out, running is more of how long you as an individual can last. If it's only ten minutes the first time then go for 15 the next. Try jogging around the block first to see how much you can handle. I guess besides that it's just a matter of getting out there, that was my biggest problem.
Good luck
Running is great exercise. Start out gradually. You need to allow your body to (re)adjust to any new activity. You need to listen to what your body says to know specifics about time and distance. You can start out by walking or jogging, depending on you're physical condition. You can also do interval training by alternating periods of walking and running. The key is just to start where you are now and you will improve as long as you keep up the effort.The best running shoes for you depend on many conditions such as where you plan to run (off- trail, paved surfaces), pronation (high/normal/low arches), distance, etc. The best shoe for one runner may not be good for another. There are specialty running stores that have sales people that will guide you to the best shoe for you. Avoid getting cheap running shoes off the rack. You might suffer injuries from running in the wrong shoe.
Hi Shannon. 6 months after i gave birth i started doing light exercises first; like warm up or stretching at home. then, walking in a comfortable pace for at least one hour a day while i am pushing my baby's pram. i didn't need a company because i enjoyed being with my baby. I still do walking everydayDo it the same way, slowly but surely. I recommend any Nike or Puma shoes.
Answer:
Start off slowly by walking first, walk at a comfortable pace for about 45 minutes to an hour a day. After a week or two you can turn it into power walking or a light jog for about 20-30 mins. Rest when its neccesary. But not too long.If you feel naseus/dizzy, you are over exherting yourself, slow it down. Once you feel comfortable with your fast walks turn it into a slow jog. Go at your own pace, dont sprint, breath well, keep your mouth open keep hydrated with water before, inbetween and after your done. After time you can increase the pace of the run, keep the time frame similar though e.g first run being 25 mins of slow paced jog, 2 weeks later your on 30/35 mins of a medium paced jog, 2 weeks after that your doing 30/35 mins of a regular paced jog with 2 or 3 1 minute intervals and drink break (remember at this stage of fitness you want to keep your heart rate elevated for about 15-20 mins of your job so smaller rests this way you increase your metabolic rate and fitness and overcome any plateue's). -Start slow, increase pace over time, take the same route each day so you have a mental fixation on the beggining and end.-Eating some carbs before can help like a steady porridge or oatmeal with your energy. You want some nice light running shoes from nike with a soft and light feel to them.After a while you can increase your pace, as your cardio ability will strengthen, you jneed to start exherting yourself some more to reap the benefits once you get to a normal fitness level.
You have to gradually build up your stamina, at first you should just go on a few long walks, for a week or two. Then start jogging, maybe 1/2 mile to start out with, for another week or two. Then just add 1/2 mile or more each week. For the shoes, I would recommend Nike shox. They help with the pressure, so you wont get shin splints.
I started running about a month ago after about a 10 year hiatus. I located some local races and signed up for a 2 mile race. Then I just started running. The first week I just ran about a mile a day and took 1 or 2 days off. Then I gradually built up. I just ran about 7 miles first thing this morning.I also found a local running club that's active. I began running with them 3 days a week. It's nice to have someone to push you a bit and also it's not as boring. We do a track workout once a week. Light run on Saturday mornings and travel to different areas on Sundays. It's fun, people of different ages and of all abilities. Some of us are participating in a relay this weekend.Go for it. Just put on a pair of shoes and go.As for the 2 mile race, I just did that to give me some motivation and something to aim for. I just ran it at a light pace.
Well for starters, stretching is essential for any kind of exercise if you want to keep running without injury. For shoes I would suggest going to a footlocker or sports store and ask them that question. It is pretty much a preference to what kind of shoes you would wear. Just make sure they have ample support and mobility. Try going out, running is more of how long you as an individual can last. If it's only ten minutes the first time then go for 15 the next. Try jogging around the block first to see how much you can handle. I guess besides that it's just a matter of getting out there, that was my biggest problem.
Good luck
Running is great exercise. Start out gradually. You need to allow your body to (re)adjust to any new activity. You need to listen to what your body says to know specifics about time and distance. You can start out by walking or jogging, depending on you're physical condition. You can also do interval training by alternating periods of walking and running. The key is just to start where you are now and you will improve as long as you keep up the effort.The best running shoes for you depend on many conditions such as where you plan to run (off- trail, paved surfaces), pronation (high/normal/low arches), distance, etc. The best shoe for one runner may not be good for another. There are specialty running stores that have sales people that will guide you to the best shoe for you. Avoid getting cheap running shoes off the rack. You might suffer injuries from running in the wrong shoe.

I want to start eating good, so that I can lose weight. But i need some info plz...?
What are good things to look for in food when I go shopping? I have a fitness plan set up but I'm having trouble with the diet plan. I love ice cream and I hate giving it up. But I want to lose weight.
Answer:
As far as icecream goes, get some fudgesicles that are only 100 calories each. That way you allow yourself one a day, get your chocolate/icecream fix, and it was only 100 cal. As long as it is only one a day...Mostly remember that fruits and veggies are the BEST and you should eat them ALL THE TIME. Other than that, eat whole grain wheats. (whole bread, wheat bagel, brown rice), eat low fat dairy (yogurt, skim milk, part skim cheese), and eat healthy protein (steak is okay but not often, mostly stick to baked chicken, nuts, beans, soy, fish).www.sparkpeople.comthey have a lot of meal plans, you can pick different meals and you can substitute items and it will add up calories as well as carbs, protein, fat, and other nutrients!! they also have recipes. check it out!
look for low fat, and low sodium... etc. mucho fruit and vegies! lol... but I have the ice cream problem too. just have it as a treat about once a week or once every two weeks... so not too much, but then you can still have it if you really want to.

I want to smoke?
ok i started smoking a few cigs over the weekend and i want to start iam only 16 yrs old so can i got to the store and buy them myself or i cant cuz iam under age. i live in canada and sum of my friends said that they bought sum cigs without showing id so will it work for me
Answer:
They'd be doing you a favor by not selling you cigs. They'll be saving your long term life. I'm 45 now and been smoking mostly all of my life since 15. I started because all they people I new did and I wanted to fit in with the crowed. I use to be a fast pitch softball player with the military and civilian teams not no more can't make it to second base without stopping to get air and at 30 people would tell me I looked 21, would still get carded going in those bars. Now I look 60 no kidding! My point it will catch up with you . I wish I'd a had someone to save me from killing myself all those years ago. So please don't inflict long term suicide on yourself. Stay away save yourself now.
probably. my friends do adn they are 15. no one can tell you to stop or w/e. but its stupid. ive seen people die at 35.
please ask yourself why you want to start smoking. it's not a good thing. and will not help you in any way.
luckyy. im in usa. they check ids for everything.. even if your getting spray paint. wtf. lol.
anyway. what do you smoke? hit me uppp.
why would you even smoke in the first place! Don't be a dumbass.
DON'T START SMOKING!! You will regret it later when you are trying to quit!
Stay away from cigs,dont you realize for every cig you smoke thats another nail on your coffin..And yes i smoke but it is a filthy habit and if i could stop i would,but sadly i have been smoking for 35yrs...Liz.
No one can predict if the store clerks will treat you as they treated your friends. They might or might not. I hope the clerks who did this are fired immediately. Cigarettes are highly addictive and cause many health problems, including cancer.
well smoking doesnt do any good for u. it only kills u faster. im not sure wuts the age for it in canada but in the US u have to be 18 and had an ID
DON'T DO IT.See how easily you can get HOOKED? If you think it'll look cool, just look at the packaging pictures to see what YOU will eventually look like if you smoke. PLEASE. Don't even start.By the way, if your like your friends, remember if they get caught buying cigs for you, they can be jailed or fined. Treat yourself and your friends better than that!
you might get carded or not. depends on the employee at the store. some are crazy about carding people. others don't care. but you might want to reevaluate your desire to smoke. not only does it give you bad breath, stained teeth, and horrible odor on your clothes, but it is bad for your health. I work in a hospital and see people that are 30 years old and have to wear oxygen at all times because they have smoked for years. It's up to you what you do, but I definately wouldn't recommend it. :P

I want to shape my butts.. plz help some easy to do home exercises?
Answer:
Do 50 squats a day.
Hey Ankita,First of all, the secret to having an appealing firm butt is, initially, losing the fat around it.Secondly, here are some great butt exercises. I wouldn't waste my time with little leg-lifts which some people might suggest, they're more of an aerobic exercise and won't build muscle (which is how you firm a muscle). I'd say the best exercise you can do without any equipment is a lung. Here's how you do it. Take a large step forward with one leg. Then, drop your back knee towards the floor, but do not let it touch. Make sure your forward knee does not go past the toes of that foot (this is bad for your knee). Then step forward and repeat on other side. For a more thorough explination search it on google. You want to feel fatigued by the 24th lung (12 for each leg). For some people just their body weight works first. For other people, you need extra weight. Put on a backpack and load it with books.Another simple thing you can do is skip a step when you walk up steps!
I want to reduce my leg size but still gain muslce on my arms at the same time?
i want to reduce my thigh width from 16 inches to about 13, i run three times a week and bike to school 5 times a week, which is about a 30 minute bike one way. i eat very healthly and have a large protein intake and a low fat intake. i also have a skinny upper body and without losing weight on my shoulders and arms i want to lose weight on my legs. what is the best way to do so.
Answer:
Alternate days in between working out your legs and arms.if you do cardiovascular work out for your legs they'll tone up real nice and strength training for your arms so that you won't loose body fat in your upper body. It's going to be hard but if you pay close attention to how your body reacts to different exercises you'll be able to do it.

Answer:
A good way to loose weight is to use a calorie counter watchKeep to a 1,200 food intakeAdd 1,200 plus 3,500 (equals one pound of fat) ...and that is the total amount of calories you need to burn each day. Its actually really easy once you start watching the numbers and it doesn't seem like work or exercise. Its just a matter of changing the way you think about loosing weight.I use this method when i gain some pounds. The first time I did this I went from 168 to 127
running is always good, its a great lower body workout, squats, leg push ups, just type in specific exercises into yahoo
Try this site:http://www.myfit.ca/exercisedatabase/sea...It's filled with information and has pictures/videos.
cardio! (overall weight loss)
if you build muscle those areas are just gona look bigger since there is gona be more muscle underneath the fat.
find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours)
5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water
have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
have lean meat (protein) for dinner - repairs muscle
cardio exercise 4-6 times a week for 30-50min, light weight training
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, past etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried - no junk food.
lunges and squats ..here is a site to show you the proper way to do them http://exercise.about.com/cs/exercisewor...

I want to put together a music mix for the gym any ideas?
i want to put together a playlist for the gym but i cant think of what songs to put on it. i dont like techno so scratch that. any help would be great thanks!
Answer:
Your list should include any songs that you enjoy listening to no matter what type. I like taking my iPod with me jogging and since the first 3 miles are the hardest for me, I like to listen to music played by women and on my way back for the last 3 miles I enjoy listening to songs by men as follow:Warm up:
Robin Thicke-Lost Without You
Akon-Don't Matter
Mariah Carey-Shake It OffJogging:
Beyonce-Irreplaceable
Fergie-Glamorous
Fergie-Fergalicious
Fergie-London Bridge (jogging speed increases with this song)
Lil'Kim-Lighters up
Lil'Kim-The Jump Off
Jennifer Lopez-Get RightThen I listen to men songs as mentioned on the way back. I have different play list for my work outs that I have had to change many times to fit my mood, workout, and intensity.Best of luck !P.S. With an iPod, changing your playlist offten is very very easy!
techno really pumps you up though.
call on me-eric prydz
dragula-rob zombie

I want to make exercise a part of my life to increase lifespan, but don't want it to harm me later?
I'm young, wouldn't years of long-distance runnng/jogging be really hard on my joints/legs? Are cycling/swimming more healthy forms of exercise over the long run?
Answer:
Jett,Generally, yes, and I say this a bit reluctantly because I am a runner, and I love running. But it is hard on the joints.Frankly, I would bicycle if I were you, though swimming is good, too. I don't swim--it's only a preference. I am a terrestrial animal and just don't care for the water--but I know that it's very good exercise. Either one would be great for long-term exercise.There is one other consideration you might want to take if your goal is longevity--lose weight. Get down to about what you weighed as a senior in high school (assuming that you were not a linebacker). Studies have shown on other animals that lower weight means longer life. Studies now are beginning to show that it works in humans, too: http://www.webmd.com/diet/news/20040419/...You might find information from some of the calorie restriction groups interesting:http://www.calorierestriction.org/...http://www.lef.org/http://qualitycounts.com/fpcalorie.html...All of which seems to say that, if you eat less and exercise more--the kind of exercise doesn't seem to matter, as long as it's aerobic and about 45 minutes a day, so bicycling would be very good for you and one that you can do for your whole long life--you will live longer and healtheir.Good luck.
IS THE CYCLING INDAISE OR OUTSIDE? EITHER WAY YOU FLUID UP AND DO NOT OVER EXHAUST YOURSELF. SWIMMING TONE AND WORK EVERY MUSCLE AND ORGAN IN YOUR BODY. IN ALL DO YOUR BEST.
You've got it right. In my opinion, swimming and yoga are the very best exercises because they don't stress the joints but keep your muscles supple and strong and your heart and lungs fit.
I think it is cool that you are thinking about living an active life. Good job! My answer and opinion to your question is to mix it up. Running is great, but too much can affect your joints. So take a break from running sometimes and do something else. Add variety in your life to make things fun and less repetitive and boring!! Go swim for a couple of weeks, or bicyling. Dont forget about resistance training! Your body is built to move, not sit. So stay active and you should be fine. I saw that you said that you want to increase your lifespan. Exercise is only part of the equation. You also want to consider other factors such as food, stress, drugs, etc. But this is all about exercise so I will stick to that. Good luck!

I want to lose weight!?
I am 5'10" i am 14 and I weigh about 200 pounds, I am going to Florida in about 3 weeks..how can i lose the most weight in that little time period, I would like to lose 25?
Answer:
You are going to have to kill it at the gym. But three weeks will be tough because your body is just starting to get used to working out and losing weight.
As long as you eat healthy and exercise daily, you should see results. That means you must stay away from fatty foods, fried foods, junk food, etc. There are some foods and supplements you can eat that can help you lose weight. check out http://www.realhomeremedies.com... for more info--just click on the weight loss link on the left.
I lost about that in 3 weeks with portion control, quitting beer, and running 4 miles a day.

You are going to have to kill it at the gym. But three weeks will be tough because your body is just starting to get used to working out and losing weight.
As long as you eat healthy and exercise daily, you should see results. That means you must stay away from fatty foods, fried foods, junk food, etc. There are some foods and supplements you can eat that can help you lose weight. check out http://www.realhomeremedies.com... for more info--just click on the weight loss link on the left.

I want to lose weight but i love food a lot so how do i get my mind off of it?
everytime im bored i eat when i wake up i wanna eat and im still skinnyish now cuz i have a fast metabolism but i know its gunna catch up with me so any ideas onn how to think of food in a different way??
Answer:
Your mind does not need to get off of it, you just have to eat five times a day but with little portions and above all, trying to it always at the same time and the less fat the better. There are many healthy and lovely food out there you can try. If you like fat food, at least moderate the fat you eat and try to burn those calories by doing some exercise.hope you lose the weight you need
Hey,
Just a note before I start: crunches, push ups, situps, etc will not help you loose weight! What you really need to do if you want to loose
weight, is make sure you do these VERY important
things:1. Have no more than 1,000 calories a day! Look on
every nutrition label of what you eat, and always buy
low calorie foods!2. Exercise! But not for muscles! People get loosing
weight and gaining juscle confused. The gym is good
for tonning up muscles, but to loose weight, you
really have to run, jump, swim, and anything else that
really makes you sweat, sweat, sweat!! Exercise for
AT Least 1-3 hoursa a day!3. EAT HEALTHY! Some people skip breakfast and lunch
and then have a huge dinner right before bed. That is
absolutely the worst thing you can do for your immune
system! You will gain weight and will NEVER be able to
loose it because your immune system will be screwd up!
Make sure you have a large breakfast with no (or
little) breads. Like one egg, 2 turkey sausages, and
one waffle. Cereal and milk is good, but with 1% milk
and no sugery cereal like lucky charms, fruit loops,
etc.
Have a medium sized lunch, no hamburgers, fries, or
soda. A salad or tofu, or chicken strips (not fried)
or anything else yummy and helathy you can think of.
But still watch the calories.
Always remember to have dinner BEFORE 6 PM! A light
soup with toast, or low calorie mac and cheese and a
salad is good. Maybe a veggie low calorie lasgna.
Also, dont EVER eat meat after 7 pm! Especially pork
and beef. Chicken is ok, but eat it no less that 3
hours before bed.
No snacking on chips, chocolate, or any calorie
filled, starurated fat drenched, snacks during the
day! If your craving for a snack, dried fruit or
regular fruit or special K bars are good. BUT NO
ENERGY BARS, BECAUSE THEY HAVE TONS OF SUGAR!!4. Go to bed early! Did you know that the more you
sleep, the more fat you burn? Thats why you are always
lighter in the morning, by a pound or so.5. HAVE WILLPOWER!! You have to know when to tell
yourself to stop! Sometimes you need it to tell you to
go exercise, sometimes not to eat donuts and cake at a
birthday party.I really hope you reach your goal!!!Good Luck!!!
ask your self when your grabbing for something "do i need this?" and if you tell yourseld no but i really want it. you want to keep your mind off food too! tell your seld that you want that more and walk away. its hard at first but you will get used to it
just drink water or play sports.
That is a big problem for me too. I try to eat things that will fill me up, and then afterwards, distract myself with activities like computer games, ByeDr.coms (haha), shopping, reading. etc. If you are absolutely DYING for a snack, here are some low-calorie options:Kettle Corn- 15 cal per cup
Pickles- 5 cal each
Breyer's sugar free frozen fruit bars- 30 cal each
Special K snack bars- 90 cal each
Carb Smart fudgecicles- 90 cal each
JELL-O sugar free chocolate pudding- 50 cal each
Fruits- 50-100 cal each
Caramel Corn rice cakes- 50 cal eachGood luck!
find other stuff 2 do, call friends, watch a movie, take a bike ride etc. find stuff u enjoy.also, try to snack on the healthier stuff. rule of thumb; if you can stick it in dirt and it'll grow, its some of the best food on earth. find fruits and greens that u like, my personal fav are ocean spray crasins.the worst thing u can do is to hate food or hate urself. good luck
A good way to loose weight is to use a calorie counter watchKeep to a 1,200 food intakeAdd 1,200 plus 3,500 (equals one pound of fat) ...and that is the total amount of calories you need to burn each day. Its actually really easy once you start watching the numbers and it doesn't seem like work or exercise. Its just a matter of changing the way you think about loosing weight.I use this method when i gain some pounds. The first time I did this I went from 168 to 127
find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours)
5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water
have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
have lean meat (protein) for dinner - repairs muscle
cardio exercise 4-6 times a week for 30-50min, light weight training
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, past etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried - no junk food.

I want to lose weight but i always seem to have trouble sticking to diets, any advice or good diets?
im 128 at 5'5 and i just want to get back to 122
Answer:
replace all your drinks with water. that's a really easy way to get healthier.
eat fruit and vegetables... and do not worry caz you are great the way you r
Are you really complaining about a measley 6 lbs.? just eat less and excerise really strong for a week or two and u should lose it.
unfortunately, research has shown that dieting rarely works. 2 things u can do is eat smaller portions or exercize.
Instead of dieting make lifestyle changes. If you eat fast food everyday stop it. If you drink sodas, change to water, etc.
try not to diet, but to eat healthier, more fruits and less junk foods. Also exercise a lot. Squats are really effective, as well as crunches.good luck! and remember to drink lots of water!
Drink lots of water if you get the munchies at night eat some fruit and a glass of water.you just need to get over the mental part of loosing weight. Your not tough mentally and you need to strive to reach goals so you really need to fight your appetite and weight. Stay away from the carbs and junk food (chips...etc.) But you are perfect the way you are. good luck
Well, diets may not be the best idea. Modifyin' your current diet is easier to do. Watch your portions, drink more water, exercise about 3 times a week for 30 minutes. You aren't far from your goal so that's awesome. The whole point of changin' your diet is so you can see some changes in your body but you also want to keep the changes wich requires you to keep the habits, doing diets makes it harder to do that for most.
just take hoodie its a fun deit pill to take that would help you lose weight and u dont have to take it everyday
Don't go on a diet. Just eat less and exercise more. The reason you probably can't stick to diets is because you're depriving yourself of the foods you want, then when you can't stand it anymore, you eat a chocolate bar--say screw it--and eat all the things you've been craving since you've been on the diet. Eat what you want. Just eat less of it and drink more water. And I can't stress this enough--EXERCISE. Good luck.

ofcourse you can spoil yourself once in a while with a little treat:)

Three words: WHOLE UNPROCESSED FOODS.Yep, you got it. Veggies, Fruits, Whole grain breads.Also, Protien- low fat dairy, lean meat, fish for muscle!Motivation? Read health magazines, success stories! Think of how great you'll feel :]Energy? Black coffee, green tea with caffiene, LOTS of water.Just do anything you can to get a little bit of excercise. Walk around your workplace, take the stairs, do housework, walk around when you talk on the phone. ANYTHING helps! :]Good luck, you can do it, just dont give up :]If you have an "off day" dont kill yourself...there's always tommorow to get right back on track! :]
first of all "diets" are evil. you just need to (permanently) cut out junk food, most dairy products (half-and-half, ice cream, sugary yogurts) pop, and processed foods. eat whole wheat breads, stuff like oatmeal, fresh fruit and veggies, meat like chicken and fish. and forget about alcohol. then start walking for 15-20 minutes everyday...eventually work up to running for 10-15 minutes a day. take a multivitamin, drink lots of water and within a few weeks you'll notice a huge difference!

Three words: WHOLE UNPROCESSED FOODS.Yep, you got it. Veggies, Fruits, Whole grain breads.Also, Protien- low fat dairy, lean meat, fish for muscle!Motivation? Read health magazines, success stories! Think of how great you'll feel :]Energy? Black coffee, green tea with caffiene, LOTS of water.Just do anything you can to get a little bit of excercise. Walk around your workplace, take the stairs, do housework, walk around when you talk on the phone. ANYTHING helps! :]Good luck, you can do it, just dont give up :]If you have an "off day" dont kill yourself...there's always tommorow to get right back on track! :]
first of all "diets" are evil. you just need to (permanently) cut out junk food, most dairy products (half-and-half, ice cream, sugary yogurts) pop, and processed foods. eat whole wheat breads, stuff like oatmeal, fresh fruit and veggies, meat like chicken and fish. and forget about alcohol. then start walking for 15-20 minutes everyday...eventually work up to running for 10-15 minutes a day. take a multivitamin, drink lots of water and within a few weeks you'll notice a huge difference!
I want to lose weight and gain a little muscle.Btw im only 11?
I weight 120 pounds and i feel like I am fat. Pls help me?
Answer:
You're supposed to have a bit of extra weight when you're that age. That extra is necessary for puberty, trust me!If you want to be healthier, eat more healthfully. Tell your parents that you want to make a food change in your life and ask them to support you. BE HEALTHY, though! None of this crash diet stuff! (My mom put me on a crash diet when I was 11...it was not a good thing.)For exercise, try jogging, walking, aerobics videos, etc. These are all safe, good things to do!
maybe run a little bit/I'd say less than 15 mi a week.other than that you might grow out of your fattness
don't lift too many weights because ive heard that lifting weights early can stunt your growth
You didn't mention your height, but 120 lbs doesn't sound like a lot. I think the smartest thing to do would be to discuss it with your parents and maybe your doctor, so they can help you determine what a healthy weight for you is. In the meantime, try to avoid the junk food. Skip the candy, chips and soda and instead eat more fruit, vegetables, and water. Do NOT try any extreme diets or excessive exercise routines, though. They will do more damage than good.
If you believe you are fat, try the natual way, excerise and eat less. By excerising you CAN gain muscles while working on lossing weight. 11 year olds are NOT fit to use diet pills, they are a pain in the butt, and can be very very very dangerous. I suggest the following:drink only water, less sugar, bike, run, jog, jumprope, or even just walk a bit. If doing something tiring blast off the music or watch tv! it takes your mind off of the pain =)
I don't know where to begin on what a dumbass "smile" is. First of all, he isn't even spelling "lose", as in lose weight correctly- shows you how much he knows about losing weight. Secondly, detox diets are bullshit. You are not toxified- there is no reason to DEtox. You are only 11 years old. You are still growing. Don't deprive your body of the nutrition you need to grow. Just watch your portions. It is too early to start lifting weights. I am a very big guy muscle wise, and I recommend you just eat healthily until you are a little older and participate in normal sports.
Weighing 120 could be considered "overweight," but it depends upon how tall you are. Many kids these days are overweight partly because they spend too much time indoors on video games and watching TV and partly because they eat too many carbohydrates (mainly sugar, fries, pastries and even white bread) and too little protein (mainly eggs, fish, poultry and meat). If this sounds like you, you can see what will help. Get out at least an hour a day and exercise, shoot some hoops, or just jog. Cut way down on the sweets ( sodas, candy, cake) and add a little more protein to the diet. I am sure this will work well for you and now is the time to start because, if you are overweight, keeping everything as it is will only make the problem get worse. Good luck!
Don't worry, cut back on your junk food, do some sit up or cruches, push ups, get out and play more, basketball, skateboarding fun things.Try to make healthier food choices.My six year old daughter is a little heavy for her age. she started doing sit ups about 3 weeks ago, now she can do 200 sit ups without stopping and she's lost a couple pounds by eating less junk food.Good luck, but don't focus on your weight to much you're young and you're going to grow a lot over the next few years.
Walking, running, swimming, bycycling, dancing. Have fun!
Good Luck.
I know you've probably heard it before, but talk to your doctor before you start severly dieting/intensely exercising. Substantial weight loss may cause problems with your reproductive development [and although you probably dont care about that now, you will later.] It also depends on your height, check your BMI by finding a BMI calculator on Google that includes your age in the results.If you want to diet, don't go on a fad-diet like low-carb or whatever, but eat sensibly and include all the food groups and try to cut out junk food. Remember: moderation! Drink lots of water to keep hydrated. Cutting calories isnt a good idea either, and your body DOES need a certian amount of fat intake.If after you talk to your doctor and they okay it, you could try weights or just things like situps and pushups. You have to remember, though, that if you're thinking you want to lose weight and gain muscle, muscle actually weighs more than fat, so keep that in mind. Measuring the areas you want to tone can help you gain perspective on this.
110 isn't fat unless you're like 4'1". I'm gonna assume you're about 5'6" or so. Don't worry about a diet just yet. Tone up. Go to WalMart and get a small set of weights. Get a bench set if you have the room. Start low...around 10 or 15 pounds, and do some curls and tricep extentions with the dumbells. 3 sets of 10. Put a little more weight in a couple of weeks. The key is to go slow. Too much too fast and you could hurt something. Leg lifts and bench press.. you can start a bit higher on the weight, but something easy enough that you aren't straining...yet. That comes later. Work a different part of your body each day, but not all parts every day. Maybe legs and back on Tues and Thurs. Upper body Mon, Wed, Fri. Saturday you might give the whole thing a quick shot of 2 sets then rest on Sunday. Eat good, throw in a walk around a block or two, stay away from cookies and stuff. Drink lots of water and take your vitamens.
You are pretty young.. How about to try a sport seriously.. I think this will be you best bet..
Eat/Drink enough protein..No junk food..Goof Luck

I want to lose weight and i exercise eat right, but after i exercise i get so thirsty and i drink at least?
2water bottles, but i gain back the weight that i just lost, what should i do?
Answer:
There is a difference between losing weight and losing fat. Water cannot make you fat but will actually help you to burn fat. The scale is a poor indicator of progress. Enjoy the water and don't worry about it.Here is an article about water and one about measuring body composition:
http://www.spartafit.com/nutrition/water...
http://www.spartafit.com/articles/measur...
here is something for you to check out
www.omnitrition/jamiealbright
its okay, because what you lose was WATER weight, and what you are gaining back is WATER weight.
if you give it time, you will eventually lose real weight (fat) off your body
you shouldn't be going by the scales anyhow.
try to drink more water throughout the day... also dont go by the scale, go by how your close fit and how you feel
Most diets recommend you drink at least 48oz of water a day. So it's not a bad thing. What you need to do is decrease your sodium intake. The sodium is what holds onto the water and even though you may pee you're still keeping it in and you won't lose weight. Watch your sodium but keep drinking the water. It'll also help you control your hunger.

I want to lose weight & build muscle, question about anabolic & catabolic states, and protein suppliments?
I've started really concentrating on exersize %26 I want to do it right. From what I can tell the body can only build when in an anabolic state, and can only shrink when in a catabolic state, correct?Some articles say that you should build muscle and lose weight at the same time. They advice a high calorie hi protein diet, heavy weight lifting and aerobic excersize. Others say that since your body can only effectively do one or the other, you should concentrate. to first focus on weight loss with a low calorie diet, lots of aerobic excersize, and weight lifting to maintain muscle mass and develop lean muscles, then once you are where you want to be weight wise, switch to the high calorie high protein diet to build muscle.Any advice on which routine would be best?Question two: if the latter routine is best, should protein supplements (I have one called muscle milk) be taken during the weight loss period, or should I put that off until the bulk up period? Thanks.
Answer:
if you are a newbie to resistance training you will most likely see a simultaneous increase of muscle mass with a decrease in the body fat "if" your diet is sound.for now I would focus on learning the mechanics of compound exercises, they are the key to building mass. for the tone of your post it seems that you are wanted to make the most out of your training which is a good thing. pick up any book by Tudor Bompa on Periodization you will learn a ton about how to properly design a training program.regarding the muscle milk. take it after training and before bed. also pick up some hand calipers to start tracking your body fat %. use macros close to 40% protein, 40% carbs and 20% fats.
if you want to build muscle dont loose weight,,,,you need the fat to build muscle,,that's why you need a high protein diet,,if your going to lift at least 2 hours a day,,or more

Answer:
basically you can bulk (add muscles mass) and cut (trim fat) all in one but it is recommended you do one first then the other for best results. If you want to bulk first, buy protein powder and have 1 scoop in the morning and 1 straight after workout. Eat 8 meals a day, 1 every 3 hours. Consume 2g of both protein and carbs to 1 lb bodyweight.
If you want to cut first, buy protein powder, have 1 scoop in the morning and 1 straight after workout. Eat 3 meals a day, consume 1-1.5g of protein and less than 1g of carbs per lb of bodyweight.
As for routines regardless of whether you bulk or cut either do a strength (5x5 routine) or a size (3x8 hypertrophy routine) split over 4 days as - Chest/Tri's, Back/Bi's, Traps/Delts, Legs. Do abs on all your days off, along with cardio (do abs first though). Do more cardio if you are cutting, as you must use up more calories than you are eating.
Save muscles milk for when bulking because you will see better results that way, I'm not sure what this product is but if it contains lots of protein, try drinking 34g in the morning and straight after workout to top up protein levels, or just buy protein powder and have single scoop shakes (get chocolate flavoured).
Here's a serious answer. I hope it helps.*If want to get fit and/or lose weight, here's my Weight Loss Program through Body Building and Nutrition. It works! First, don't Use Diet Pills. They are bad for you. Most of them are just a scam or they are addictive. Counting calories is a pain in the neck. It will drive you nuts. But, losing weight is simple. You just have to do the right things.
*(If you are older and have not exercised in many years you should see your doctor and have a stress test done to be sure your heart is ok before starting this program. Also, walking eveyday is a good lifelong practice.)
*Fad diets sometimes work but, you can be sure that at least 25% of the weight you lose will be muscle. Then when you stop the diet you will gain back all of the weight you lost but no muscle. So, you will have 25% more fat than you did before! Fad diets just aren't worth the bother.
*Fasting or skipping meals will teach your body that famine is common in your world and your body will begin to store more fat to get you through the next period when food is not available. It's better to eat healthy foods often to teach your body that food is plentiful and that there is no need to store calories as fat. Eat a vegetablw or frui every two hours.
*Here's a simple trick that can help you lose weight without doing anything else. Drink a litre of water as soon as you wake up in the morning and then drink two more throughout the day. You'll notice a difference the first month.
*Here's another trick that works. For every pound of muscle that you add, your body will burn 3000 calories (1lb) of fat every day. That means that just by having an extra pound of muscle on your body you will burn a pound of fat every day! So, add muscle!
*This is the fastest way to add a pound of muscle. Squats and Pushups! You do them on alternate days; squats one day, pushups the next. And you do them SuperSlow style. That is, you do the easy part twice as slow as the hard part. That way you fatigue the muscles quickly. Then you rest the muscles for 48 hours which gives the body a chance to make new muscles.
*Squats should be done with a wide stance and all the way to the floor. Pushups the with palms shoulder width apart and all the way to the floor, then all the way up. Use the full range of motion of the muscle group you are trying to develop. If you are too weak to do pushups, try them with your knees on the floor or do them with your feet on the floor and your hands an the bed.
*The idea is to tire the muscles out completely so do a set of squats until you can't do another, then rest for a couple of minutes and do it again. Do that 3 times and you're done for the day. The following day, don't do squats but do pushups. Do them the same way, going down twice as slow as you come up.
*You will lose weight fast, unless you add more junk food and fat to your diet. Instead, eat at least 5 to 7 different raw vegetables and fruits every day. Cut out anything that comes in a bag, box, can, bottle or any kind of package. In other words, cut out all processed foods, soft drinks and sweets. Eat more grains and less red meat. Check out the
Food Pyramid.
*I don't know if I'm allowed to say this but if you really want to give your body the best possible chance to be healthy and fat free, go to infinity2.com and order their weight loss formula and Essentials for Life. That will give you all the vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and probiotics that your body needs and will keep you feeling better and healthier. They also have a Proteabolic Mass Formula for serious athletes who want to build muscle mass quickly and
safely.
*Weight loss without exercise is not good. You need to eat healthy, exercise and get your rest. You will feel better, look better and be healthier. Try it for a week. You will notice a difference. You will feel better and that will motivate you to continue.
*Losing weight only in specific areas of the body is impossible. You can't just lose weight around the belly, for instance. So, if you want
tight, rippled abs, do crunches and leg raises every other day the way I described above.
*One last point, stretching is essential for a number of reasons. Pick up a copy of ''Stretching'' by Bob Anderson. Read the intro and understand his reasoning before you do the exercisis. Good luck!

Protein is used to bulk up and that's about it. If you're looking to lose body fat then don't bother to consume large doses of protein and continue to participate in heavy aerobic exercise (running). It is correct that the body cannot effectively gain large amounts of muscle mass if you're doing aerobic exercise. It's all dependant on what you want to do. Personally, I bulk up in the winter months and in the summer months I bring out the sneakers (I continue to lift but not as heavy). Just remember that bulking requires large amounts of protein (about 1 gram for every pound you weigh) - this in turn requires that you eat somewhere around 6-7 meals a day with high amounts of water as well.
Here is a simple answer...More muscles means better resting metabolism. Gain as much lean muscle as you can with protein supplementation, low reps, heavy weight and proper diet. Once you have done this it is easier to burn calories. You can continue taking protein but make sure it is not a mass builder(high carb) stick to the low carb alternatives and amp up the cardio.

Protein is used to bulk up and that's about it. If you're looking to lose body fat then don't bother to consume large doses of protein and continue to participate in heavy aerobic exercise (running). It is correct that the body cannot effectively gain large amounts of muscle mass if you're doing aerobic exercise. It's all dependant on what you want to do. Personally, I bulk up in the winter months and in the summer months I bring out the sneakers (I continue to lift but not as heavy). Just remember that bulking requires large amounts of protein (about 1 gram for every pound you weigh) - this in turn requires that you eat somewhere around 6-7 meals a day with high amounts of water as well.
Here is a simple answer...More muscles means better resting metabolism. Gain as much lean muscle as you can with protein supplementation, low reps, heavy weight and proper diet. Once you have done this it is easier to burn calories. You can continue taking protein but make sure it is not a mass builder(high carb) stick to the low carb alternatives and amp up the cardio.
I want to lose the lovehandles!?
i would like to try to lose my lovehandles by the end of this month or the beginning of next month.i'm not really overweight, but i just have a wider midsection. is there anything that i can do? any exercises or dietary things?
Answer:
The problem with spot reduction, is it isn't possible, but I'm not saying that losing your love handles isn't possible.You want to try anaerobic exercises, meaning you'll want to do things with your body that require your full body. That includes running (this is GREAT), jumping on a trampoline, treadmills, bike riding, swimming, tennis, anything that you can do that makes you use your arms, legs, and mid section.It would also help to do normal aerobics. Sit ups, crunches, squats, etc.If you do this for 30 minutes to an hour at least 3-4 times a week, you'll see a change, but it is rare that this happens in one month. To help speed your metabolism, drink antioxidants, eat tons of greens, and fruits, avoid soda, sugar, candies, coffee, anything with sugar. Just eat healthy.:) Hope it helps!
shoot, if you find out. let me know!!
eat less fat, do crunches, and leg lifts...drink lots of water
floor exercise for the love handles: try laying on your side, prop your head up on your hand, bend your legs slightly, lift knees up towards your shoulders, and return to original position. You should feel it 'burning' on the side of your stomach. Do a couple of sets and repeat on opposite side. Hope this will help. It's working for my cousin who's getting married next month. (saw results after 3 weeks) Good luck! As for the diet goes, try to cut out fats and carbs, eat 6 small portioned meals a day. Good luck!
try exercising first thing in morning. then cut down carbs later at night. eat fruits, high quality carbs, water, and lean protein throughout the day. you should see and feel a change by the end of the month.
gotta do some cardio, crunches and situps are good and well, they will develope the muscles nicely, but if you dont do cardio to burn the fat, you wont see the muscles under the flab.. the others have good diet suggestions so i wont bother.. try 30 minnutes cardio 3-4x weekly
Boy, do I have a match for you! I have found a great product line - it is 100% guaranteed and I have lost 8 pounds my first week! It was created by a doctor, is safe and can be used for general good health and/or weight loss. They have good videos to watch on the website too. The cost is low as well. You will get a kick out of the website name...
everybody has different parts of their bodies fat reserves are most likely being stored. the only way to lose that fat- overall weight loss. find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours)
5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water
have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
have lean meat (protein) for dinner - repairs muscle
cardio exercise 4-6 times a week for 30-50min, light weight training
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, past etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried, oily.
ofcourse you can spoil yourself once in a while with a little treat:)

Answer:
If you workout you should be eating about 1,700 - 1,900 calories a day - assuming you are a teen still. You should be drinking about a gallon of water a dayMost of your calories and fat should be coming from proteins like tofu or beansIf you really have to "cheat" then only do so once a week. Not once every day.You should be doing 30-60 minutes of cardio 4-6 times a week. Light weight training or strength training 2-3 times a week as well
well with it running wild here, jenny crank seems to be the new phin phin, sorry the best thing would be to do 35 mins of cardo. on a carb depleted diet then try not to eazt any white foods, tatters bread.. don't eat after 5:30.. and as my mom would say drink lots of water
Go on a vegetarian diet. Eat vegetables only, no red meats. Cut out all junk food such as hamburgers, hotdogs and pizza. Also cut out all soft drinks. Drink water only, or unsweetend tea or coffee. Walk at least once a day for an hour. Do this and you will meet your goal and you will feel a lot better.
Eat only when hungry and that too only nourishing food and not more than three times a day. No liquids, other than water, also in between. Chew each morsel of food at least 32 times to activate ur body system to give u messages when u r hungry or when u r full.Take light exercises and brisk walks regulary preferably twice a day.U will achieve desireable weight in a reasonable period.
So you have had enough of having a little extra weight, well my advice is say to yourself I don't care about the weight I just want to be living a healthy life style, now that you have convinced yourself on this here is a good menu.Breakfast:
DAY 1: half a grape fruit and a piece of toast and one egg
DAY2: half a grape fruit and a bowl of healthy cereal eg: Special K
Repeat that every dayNow for your other meals (lunch + supper) what I did was buy the "Food for Life Cookbook" and make my meals from that. Going on this diet will take a little extra time and effort for making all the meals, but in the end it is all worth it.I lost 30 pounds doing this in only 4 monthsTips:
on the weekend make all of your meals fore the week and then just freeze them so they are ready for your lunch and when you come home from work
Drink lots of water
NEVER skip breakfast (slows down you metabolism)
Friday and Saturday you don't need to follow the diet (day of rest) don't take it too seriously
Do some fast pace walking for a set amount of time every other dayI wish you good luck
I should only recomend a quick detox diet. If all goes right you should be able to get rid of 10 pounds in a week.
Don’t consume: * Bread
* Alcoholic drinks
* Carbonated drinks
* Any drinks that contains sugar
* Fatty food and fried food
However it is completely okay to consume water, tea and coffee with the condition that you don’t add sugar to your tea or coffee.The magic menu that will accompany you through this diet is the “FAT BURNER SOUP”.
Ingredients: * 1 Bombay onion or garlic
* 6 green onion leaves
* 1 big cauliflower
* 6 fresh tomatoes
* 2 pieces of paprika
* Celery
* 1 fillet of salmon (without skin)
* Salt and pepper
* Oregano powder
* Water (adjust the amount to your preferences)Instructions:First sprinkle the salmon fillet with salt and pepper, add a sprinkle of oregano. Leave it for a few hours.Then chop the salmon fillet to a small dice size.Chop the green onion leaves, garlic, cauliflower, and paprika and tomatoes.Then put all of the ingredients into the water and boil it. Leave all the ingredients in the boiling water for 10 minutes.Then lower the fire and keep boiling it until all the ingredients are soft.
This soup will be your main course throughout the week so it’s better if you stock more ingredients just in case your supply runs out.The soup should also be your choice if you feel hungry.You should also drink pure water at least 10 glass a day. Don’t drink it all at once but spread it throughout the day.Water is essential toward your body digestion and it helps clean your blood from bad particles.After three days you should feel stronger and healthier than before while losing weight at the same time.Should your digestion system is affected then consume a small portion of oatmeal to help your digestion.Day 1:Eat the soup accompanied with watermelon and melon for your main food all day long. Consume a glass of unsweetened cranberry juice before you go to bed.Day 2:Stop eating fruit at all! Consume your soup and you are allowed to eat green salad. Make sure the salad contain no dressings, peas and corns.For dinner you can consume roasted potato or baked potato with butter (don’t ever think to fry it)Day 3:
Consume the soup, salad and fruit but no potato today.
Day 4:
Eat the soup accompanied with a glass of skimmed milk. Consume 8 pieces of banana to provide your body enough energy. Your body now need carbohydrate and protein also calcium to lessen body need for sugar.
Day 5
Eat your soup again. Today you should consume salad and salmon fish. Make sure the salmon fish don’t exceed 10 ounces.Day 6
You should consume maximum 10 ounces of meat along with your soup. You need the protein here.
Last DayConsume 4 table spoons of rice with vegetables. Drink fresh watermelon or melon juice without sugar and eat your soup also today.

I want to lose some weight?
Hi, I am thirteen and I weigh 120 pounds, I am 5'3 and I dont feel good in this skin, you know awkward and stuff. So what is the best way for me to lose weight? I wanna lose my tummy. this is what it looks like - -http://s99.photobucket.com/albums/l317/x...
Answer:
First of all you are not at all overweight. But if you want to shed a few pounds do cardio exercises and eat healthy with VARIETY. Cardio exercises include running, jogging, biking, or boxing. Pick the one you like the best and stick with it. Do not starve yourself eat a variety of foods but eat healthy. This entails eating fruits, veggies, carbs, meats, dairies, and fats. Just limit the amount of fats. Eat healthy and stay fit and you will be happy with your body no matter what your weight.
go to a doctor and ask him her to give you a diet, at that age you need someone to tell you what is important for you or not, you are still developing your body and growing up so he will be the best one to tell you what to eat and what not to eat and what kind of exercise will be good for you.
Eat watermelon in the morning instead of your normal breakefast...in-addition to doing 20 situps before each
meal.
Hey I completely understand. When I was 13 I felt the same even though I was skinny. I am 15 now and love my body. I eat whatever I want but I work out for 30 - an hour a day. I think a diet would be wise also. Try to limit the sugar and salt. Hope I helped. By the way I think your body is good. But I understand not liking it.
Properly diet by eating healthy food choices! Avoid "starches" such as bread,rice,potatoes and baked goods. Limit your sugar intake as well-You don't need all those empty calories! Eat until you are contented,not until you are full. The hunger feelings will only last about half an hour,or until your body has been satisfied with food. And you don't really have to eat alot to satisfy it! Try more healthy snacking-as opposed to Large Meals...and drink alot of water too! It would not hurt to also incorporate some Light Abdominal Exercises as well. They do not have to be hard or painful excercises,just enough to work the muscles around your tummy! Go peddle a Bike,or even a leisurely walk would assist also. Key word (Stay Active). For your Height and Size,I would not recommend that you lose any more than 15 pounds. That would put you reasonably close to your "ideal" body weight and mass! Also try drinking Citrus juices...that have no added sugar! (ie) Grapefruit,Orange etc. It will take abit of time before you see results,but do not get discouraged...this is quite normal! And your body needs the time to make adjustments...before shedding off any excessive fat! Also,while dieting...you should get yourself a good Multi-Vitamin supplement like Centrum! Good Luck!
Ur tummy isn't that big u know... Anyway, since u're still 13, it's better if u have lots and lots of exercise... And btw (in case u don't know, it means by the way), My mom once said that when u want to lose some weight, not eating when u're not hungry isn't really a good move coz sometimes, I forgot why, but it can make u fatter instead... U can also try being taller, that way, u won't lose weight but u'll lose u're tummy. Oh, and one more thing, try to have a balanced meal, not too much food if u don't really need it... And also, don't eat snacks while u enjoy watching TV too often. If none of these stuffs I said worked on u, try seing a doctor instead... OK?? Gbu...
if u wana loose weight and become slim switch to detox diets.for detox diets open http://www.detoxdiets4all.blogspot.com... and there open the pink color links for detox diet recipes and tip s that will help u loose weight at home without exercising
Always Think Fit:First step in exercise is to always Think FIT. To make physical improvements, you need to work your body harder than usual. This is referred to as the overload principle. As your body becomes more conditioned, you need to increase the frequency, intensity, or time of your workouts in order to continue improving your fitness levelChoosing an Exercise:
The best exercise is an activity that you enjoy enough to really pursue enthusiastically.
鈥ndoor (Facility) Activities: If the treadmill, stairmaster, rowing machine or stationery cycle doesn't excite you, sample some group activities that strike your fancy. Participate in a group cycling class, beat stress with yoga, find balance with martial arts, stay cool with indoor swimming, or kick some you-know-what with boxaerobics.1. Change your eating habits (i.e. start eating smaller portions of food) before if you ate a full plate of food try eating 2/3 of a plate instead.
2.
o Substitute aspartame for sugar
o Try eating 3 or 4 smaller meals during the day rather than 2 large ones
o Eat your main large meal at midday with the other meals much smaller in content
o Don't eat heavy meals late in the evening as the body wont have time to digest it so it ends up stored as fat in your body.
o Balance your meals out during the day so in one day you have a mix of protein, carbohydrate and vitamins
o Drink lots of water during the day and before, during and after exercise, you should drink at least 8 big glasses of water per 24 hours
o Drink alcohol in moderation
o Stop smoking if you smoke or cut down
o Eat more fibre i.e. pulses grains nuts, pasta, brown rice, cereals, fresh fruit
o Eat more vegetables as part of your diet
o Eat less dairy products or choose those with less fat content i.e. cottage cheese
o Try steaming or poaching food instead of frying it, frying adds calories by the bucketful
o Cut down on Red meat and eat more lean or better still chicken and fish instead
o Use low fat oils in cooking i.e. sunflower, corn or Mazola
o Cut down on your salt intake, there are hidden salts even in tinned foods
o Try substituting carrots or fresh fruit instead of biscuits and sweetmeat when you have a craving for something in between meals.
o Drink semi or skimmed milk as opposed to full cream
Simply choose a diet which is low in fat and cholesterol, moderate in sugar and salt and high in fibre but at the same time has a variety of everything thus making it a balanced diet.Calculate your BMR!!
BMR means Basal Metabolic Rate.It is used to estimate how many calories you should consume.By using a simple formula called the Harris-Benedict principle, you can assess your BMR.
Your BMR is the amount of energy your body needs to function.Then, to lose weight, you'll need to cut calories or burn extra calories and shoot for a level lower than the results you get with this formula.
We use about 60 percent of the calories we consume each day for basic bodily functions such as breathing.Other factors that influence your BMR are height, weight, age and sex.
Step One : Calculate your BMR with the following formula:
鈥omen: BMR = 655 + (4.35 x weight in pounds) + (4.7 x height in inches) - (4.7 x age in years)
鈥en: BMR = 66 + (6.23 x weight in pounds) + (12.7 x height in inches) - (6.8 x age in years)
Step two : In order to incorporate activity into your daily caloric needs, do the following calculation:
鈥f you are sedentary : BMR x 1.2
鈥f you are lightly active: BMR x 1.375
鈥f you are moderately active (You exercise most days a week.): BMR x 1.55
鈥f you are very active (You exercise daily.): BMR x 1.725
鈥f you are extra active (You do hard labor or are in athletic training.): BMR x 1.9
Create a Calorie Deficit:
In order to lose weight, you must create a calorie deficit. It is easier and healthier to cut back your calorie intake a little bit at a time.
Every 3,500 calories is equivalent to 1 pound.
If you cut back 500 calories a day, you will lose 1 pound per week.
If you exercise to burn off 500 calories a day you will also lose 1 pound per week.
Ideally, you should do a combination of both, (e.g. cut back 250 calories; burn an extra 250 calories).

o Don't eat heavy meals late in the evening as the body wont have time to digest it so it ends up stored as fat in your body.
o Balance your meals out during the day so in one day you have a mix of protein, carbohydrate and vitamins
o Drink lots of water during the day and before, during and after exercise, you should drink at least 8 big glasses of water per 24 hours
o Drink alcohol in moderation
o Stop smoking if you smoke or cut down
o Eat more fibre i.e. pulses grains nuts, pasta, brown rice, cereals, fresh fruit
o Eat more vegetables as part of your diet
o Eat less dairy products or choose those with less fat content i.e. cottage cheese
o Try steaming or poaching food instead of frying it, frying adds calories by the bucketful
o Cut down on Red meat and eat more lean or better still chicken and fish instead
o Use low fat oils in cooking i.e. sunflower, corn or Mazola
o Cut down on your salt intake, there are hidden salts even in tinned foods
o Try substituting carrots or fresh fruit instead of biscuits and sweetmeat when you have a craving for something in between meals.
o Drink semi or skimmed milk as opposed to full cream
Simply choose a diet which is low in fat and cholesterol, moderate in sugar and salt and high in fibre but at the same time has a variety of everything thus making it a balanced diet.Calculate your BMR!!
BMR means Basal Metabolic Rate.It is used to estimate how many calories you should consume.By using a simple formula called the Harris-Benedict principle, you can assess your BMR.
Your BMR is the amount of energy your body needs to function.Then, to lose weight, you'll need to cut calories or burn extra calories and shoot for a level lower than the results you get with this formula.
We use about 60 percent of the calories we consume each day for basic bodily functions such as breathing.Other factors that influence your BMR are height, weight, age and sex.
Step One : Calculate your BMR with the following formula:
鈥omen: BMR = 655 + (4.35 x weight in pounds) + (4.7 x height in inches) - (4.7 x age in years)
鈥en: BMR = 66 + (6.23 x weight in pounds) + (12.7 x height in inches) - (6.8 x age in years)
Step two : In order to incorporate activity into your daily caloric needs, do the following calculation:
鈥f you are sedentary : BMR x 1.2
鈥f you are lightly active: BMR x 1.375
鈥f you are moderately active (You exercise most days a week.): BMR x 1.55
鈥f you are very active (You exercise daily.): BMR x 1.725
鈥f you are extra active (You do hard labor or are in athletic training.): BMR x 1.9
Create a Calorie Deficit:
In order to lose weight, you must create a calorie deficit. It is easier and healthier to cut back your calorie intake a little bit at a time.
Every 3,500 calories is equivalent to 1 pound.
If you cut back 500 calories a day, you will lose 1 pound per week.
If you exercise to burn off 500 calories a day you will also lose 1 pound per week.
Ideally, you should do a combination of both, (e.g. cut back 250 calories; burn an extra 250 calories).

I want to lose some weight.?
I'm about 5 feet and 3 and 3/4 inches tall. The last time I weighed myself I weighed 131 pounds. I do try to exercise, but is there any tricks I could do to lose atleast five pounds within the next two or three weeks. I would really like to lose ten pounds, but five is my minimum I would like to lose.I've started to do crunches and sit ups nightly, and also I've tried to eat in littler portions. I don't want to completely diet, but I'll do what I have to. Please give me some advice.Please don't ridicule me, I'm being very serious. I would be happy with a tighter, smaller stomach and some few extra pounds to be gone.Thanks for the help.
Answer:
How about walking?I do a lot of walking these days and I can feel I have lost some weight because I can wear my old jeans. Ideally,a person should walk at least 10.000 steps/day.Try to eat healthy food.80% healthy food,20% for treat(cake,biscuit but in small amount)
How can i lose weight? Does is it possible with herbal natural pills like we have

No ridicule here -- I'm not into "tricks" and the key is to eat right and exercise, and create a caloric deficit (meaning that your body burns more calories than it takes in). Rule of thumb 3500 calories equals a pound -- So, to lose 1 pound in 1 week, you have to burn 500 more calories each day than you consume. That is done by either eating less, or exercising more. Understand?Now for some tricks:Don't drink your calories -- lay off any drink that has any calories, and if at all possible just drink lots of water and nothing else.Don't eat any snacks -- no chips, no ice cream, no candy - nothing. Eat veggies only for between meals.Don't eat out at restaurants -- too hard to control calories and too hard to know exactly what you're eating. No fast food and no restaurants of any kind.Chicken, fish, egg whites, vegetables: Those are your foods. Eat nothing else. Eat plenty of vegetables, preferably raw.Multivitamin: To make sure you're getting all your nutrients take a good multivitamin (something that costs $30 a bottle at the vitamin shoppe).
Measure everything. Meat, liquids, and veggies..fruit. If it says on the can 1/2 cup only put that on your plate. Meat should only be 4 oz per serving.Join Weight Watchers they are worth it so that you can get the meausre sliding thing and know how man points a day you need...etc. Very easy to learn. You will eat all day but you are eating smaller portions so you are hungry more but your stomach is shriking the more you eat in one setting the bigger your tummy gets. Eat until you are just satisfied don't eat anymore. Drink Pleanty of water and some Milk like one or two servings a day it helps.
http://www.ediets.com/news/article.cfm/c...I've read that the best way to get tighter abs and lose fat is cardio. I'm getting started on it myself soon. But this is a good article and it makes sense.
Try setting a realitic goal and work your way up. I get breathless easily so I don't know how easy it'll be for me to do alot of cardio but I will defenatly try. I'm testing myself on the treadmill tonight.
But read up on that article and look around through ediets.com. I find their articles interesting and refreshing.
Five lbs in 2-4 weeks is a very realistic goal and you should be able to achieve it.Try working out in the morning. You'll have more energy for the day and will sleep better at night. In addition to the sit-ups try walking 30-60 minutes a day. Your right about eating 5-6 smaller meals a day. Find healthy replacements for your normal snack. The more you reduce the processed foods the more weight you'll lose. Lots of natural foods and vegetables and fruits. Drink lots of water. If you are having trouble with snacking too much, try to drink a glass of water and wait 5 minutes before getting the snack. You may feel full by then and skip it. If you have trouble with feeling hungry all the time and the above doesn't work then you could also look into natural appetite suppressants. Finally go ahead and treat yourself occasionally to some decedent treats. Just try not too make it too often and forgive yourself if you do. Just turn around and get back on the healthy road.Hope this answer helps.
Take care,

I want to lose some weight!!??
i have dropped all sodas!! i drink at least ONE gallon of water everyday and i thought water would help a lot...i have been eating lighter...the only thing i need to do is get my butt in the gym lolHas anyone lost any weight recently, if yes how did u do it and what did u eat daily??
Answer:
find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours)

dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, past etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried, oily.
ofcourse you can spoil yourself once in a while with a little treat:) i lost a lot of weight and got in a very good shape following this
before i put this all info together for myself i did a lot of yo-yo dieting, lost and gained, as many have, until i realized that diet is a way of life not a sprint.
def take that booty to the gym. no fast food either.
stop eating or ask the olsen twins how they did it
I am reposting again but read up. Its all about the proteins baby. (see how i subd benjamins for proteins... I'm so smart)This is my plan... It works for me and I am not a doctor... However it is based on the food pyramid, so it is not a fad diet. It is a way of life for me...The plan I describe below will not only lose you weight, but it will cut out the bloating which is a whole bunch of inches on your waste line. I lost 5 inches in the first month. I went from a 42 to a tight 36 in the first 4 weeks. (All boating was gone in the first two weeks) Remember that I have cut out almost all meat and eat mostly raw fruits and veg. Only sushi once a week, and I started the first week with a 7 day juice fast (see your doctor for advise). On my Juice fast I took in a max of 1200 calories a day for the first week. 200 cals of those was a balanced protein shake by Boost to make sure i was getting all the vits and minerals. (and a multi vit)Cut out 500 to 750 calories a day from the recommended values below, while either not cutting the nutrition, or cutting it as little as possible. Do this by eating nutritionally dense foods. You will lose it in not time. I also recommend juice fasting one day a week. That will cut out a 1000 calories on that day if you drink the right juices.
It will also let your digestive system rest for that day and you will lose bloating that is so common in our bodies nowadays. Friday is my day. I call it fasting Fridays and I celebrate day because on that day I stand up and say "I have control over food. it does not control me!" (and I tell everyone!)On a 2000 calorie diet (women) 2500 (men) 50 to 60 grams. These should be mostly veg/fruit protein. I would recommend only a max of 10 from lean meat. The average person should get 50g protein and 300g carbs. As an example rice has 10g protein and 44g carbs. If you ate 1 to 2 cups of rice a day with broccoli and olive oil you would have roughly 40% of a healthy diet. The key to losing weight is getting to the numbers grams you need with the minimum calories. Eat nutritionally dense food like rice and stay away from food that have alot of calories, but are low in the grams of protein, good carbs, and good fats. Here is the rule of thumb if it grows on the ground, or walks on the ground, or swims... It is good! If not... Don't put it in your mouth. Ever seen a bread tree? Here is the amendment to the rule. If it has a face... Eat it sparingly. The Chinese are on average fit and trim, have low diabetes and heart disease, and take in a small fraction of the animal protein that an average American does. (That means milk, butter and cheese too) ((I would not put butter or milk in my body under any circumstance. It would be better to eat steak once a month.))
I've lost 17.8lbs in a month, using Diet Power. The best and most sustainable way of losing weight is to cut your calorific intake while maintaining a balanced diet.
Water will cleanse your system and help you not to eat so frequently. But if you drink to much you risk losing water soluable vitamins.
diet accounts for at least 80% of weight loss..eat small meals regularly (every 2 1/2-3 hours)..never skip a meal..cut back on alcohol..reduce sugar...and eat about 13g fat, 120g carbs and 140g protein daily..try to limit daily calories to 1200.
Hope that helps!
well you might have lost weight without knowing it, when you drink allot of water it bloats you up
The only healthy way to lose weight is through exercise. A controlled diet helps, certainly, but only so much without exercise.Remember, to burn the most fat you need muscle, and diet alone cannot develop muscle. A good diet along with an exercise program that includes both cardiovascular exercise (read: treadmill or cross-trainer) and weight-training to develop muscle (read: nautilus - type machines) will provide the fastest and most healthy type of weight loss.

calculate if you are fat!
Always Think Fit:First step in exercise is to always Think FIT. To make physical improvements, you need to work your body harder than usual. This is referred to as the overload principle. As your body becomes more conditioned, you need to increase the frequency, intensity, or time of your workouts in order to continue improving your fitness levelChoosing an Exercise:
The best exercise is an activity that you enjoy enough to really pursue enthusiastically.
鈥ndoor (Facility) Activities: If the treadmill, stairmaster, rowing machine or stationery cycle doesn't excite you, sample some group activities that strike your fancy. Participate in a group cycling class, beat stress with yoga, find balance with martial arts, stay cool with indoor swimming, or kick some you-know-what with boxaerobics.1. Change your eating habits (i.e. start eating smaller portions of food) before if you ate a full plate of food try eating 2/3 of a plate instead.
2.
o Substitute aspartame for sugar
o Try eating 3 or 4 smaller meals during the day rather than 2 large ones
o Eat your main large meal at midday with the other meals much smaller in content
o Don't eat heavy meals late in the evening as the body wont have time to digest it so it ends up stored as fat in your body.
o Balance your meals out during the day so in one day you have a mix of protein, carbohydrate and vitamins
o Drink lots of water during the day and before, during and after exercise, you should drink at least 8 big glasses of water per 24 hours
o Drink alcohol in moderation
o Stop smoking if you smoke or cut down
o Eat more fibre i.e. pulses grains nuts, pasta, brown rice, cereals, fresh fruit
o Eat more vegetables as part of your diet
o Eat less dairy products or choose those with less fat content i.e. cottage cheese
o Try steaming or poaching food instead of frying it, frying adds calories by the bucketful

calculate if you are fat!
Always Think Fit:First step in exercise is to always Think FIT. To make physical improvements, you need to work your body harder than usual. This is referred to as the overload principle. As your body becomes more conditioned, you need to increase the frequency, intensity, or time of your workouts in order to continue improving your fitness levelChoosing an Exercise:
The best exercise is an activity that you enjoy enough to really pursue enthusiastically.
鈥ndoor (Facility) Activities: If the treadmill, stairmaster, rowing machine or stationery cycle doesn't excite you, sample some group activities that strike your fancy. Participate in a group cycling class, beat stress with yoga, find balance with martial arts, stay cool with indoor swimming, or kick some you-know-what with boxaerobics.1. Change your eating habits (i.e. start eating smaller portions of food) before if you ate a full plate of food try eating 2/3 of a plate instead.
2.
o Substitute aspartame for sugar
o Try eating 3 or 4 smaller meals during the day rather than 2 large ones
o Eat your main large meal at midday with the other meals much smaller in content
o Don't eat heavy meals late in the evening as the body wont have time to digest it so it ends up stored as fat in your body.
o Balance your meals out during the day so in one day you have a mix of protein, carbohydrate and vitamins
o Drink lots of water during the day and before, during and after exercise, you should drink at least 8 big glasses of water per 24 hours
o Drink alcohol in moderation
o Stop smoking if you smoke or cut down
o Eat more fibre i.e. pulses grains nuts, pasta, brown rice, cereals, fresh fruit
o Eat more vegetables as part of your diet
o Eat less dairy products or choose those with less fat content i.e. cottage cheese
o Try steaming or poaching food instead of frying it, frying adds calories by the bucketful
o Cut down on Red meat and eat more lean or better still chicken and fish instead
o Use low fat oils in cooking i.e. sunflower, corn or Mazola
o Cut down on your salt intake, there are hidden salts even in tinned foods
o Try substituting carrots or fresh fruit instead of biscuits and sweetmeat when you have a craving for something in between meals.
o Drink semi or skimmed milk as opposed to full cream
Simply choose a diet which is low in fat and cholesterol, moderate in sugar and salt and high in fibre but at the same time has a variety of everything thus making it a balanced diet.Calculate your BMR!!
BMR means Basal Metabolic Rate.It is used to estimate how many calories you should consume.By using a simple formula called the Harris-Benedict principle, you can assess your BMR.
Your BMR is the amount of energy your body needs to function.Then, to lose weight, you'll need to cut calories or burn extra calories and shoot for a level lower than the results you get with this formula.
We use about 60 percent of the calories we consume each day for basic bodily functions such as breathing.Other factors that influence your BMR are height, weight, age and sex.
Step One : Calculate your BMR with the following formula:
鈥omen: BMR = 655 + (4.35 x weight in pounds) + (4.7 x height in inches) - (4.7 x age in years)
鈥en: BMR = 66 + (6.23 x weight in pounds) + (12.7 x height in inches) - (6.8 x age in years)
Step two : In order to incorporate activity into your daily caloric needs, do the following calculation:
鈥f you are sedentary : BMR x 1.2
鈥f you are lightly active: BMR x 1.375
鈥f you are moderately active (You exercise most days a week.): BMR x 1.55
鈥f you are very active (You exercise daily.): BMR x 1.725
鈥f you are extra active (You do hard labor or are in athletic training.): BMR x 1.9
Create a Calorie Deficit:
In order to lose weight, you must create a calorie deficit. It is easier and healthier to cut back your calorie intake a little bit at a time.
Every 3,500 calories is equivalent to 1 pound.
If you cut back 500 calories a day, you will lose 1 pound per week.
If you exercise to burn off 500 calories a day you will also lose 1 pound per week.
Ideally, you should do a combination of both, (e.g. cut back 250 calories; burn an extra 250 calories).
