What are you diet secrets?? I will choose best answer? -

I m going on holidays in 5 weeks with loads of super skinny friends so id reeeeally like to lose some weight...especially off my legs and stomach. What are your quick diet/weight loss tips please please please? thank you

Do you see the box near the top of the page?The one labelled Search for questions: ?Well type in lose weight .You will find over 15,000 preexisting questions.Try the misspellings loose weight and there are another 5,500.In all there are over 50,000 Health section questions requesting solutions to being or thinking you might be overweight.On average these each yield 6 answers, that is over 300,000 answers.I can usefully summarise these answers in 4 words:EAT LESS DO MORE. Are you desperate enough to try this???

The best way to get a flat stomach is to eat VERY little calories and do cardiovascular (heart-rate related) exercise. Although a tight stomach is more about losing body fat than muscle, it helps to do situps or pushups as long as you can go before falling asleep. This also makes you exhausted, so you ll fall asleep much faster.My diet secret is pretty simple: I don t drink soft drinks, I don t eat desserts or candy, I don t eat animal products (milk, cheese, yogurt, meat, fish). There s a number of reasons for not eating animal products and it s a little over the top for just losing weight, so I recommend just dropping the soft drinks and the desserts.Some low calorie meals....Breakfast:Oats (not sugary cereal) with fruit and milk (do NOT pile sugar on it, but make sure it s a sweet fruit like cherry or strawberry)GrapefruitKiwiBananaLunch:SandwichSalad - stay away from ranch and other dressings, just go with olive oil and maybe some vinegarDinner:Vegetables, grains, and meat/legumes/fish.Again, I don t know the extent you re willing to go for this, but this will work. It operates on the basic principle that if you burn more calories than you eat, you lose weight.Don t be too obsessed with a scale, especially an electric one. Your weight can vary up to 15 pounds depending on the time of day, or maybe if you just ate. Check it before you shower in the morning every day.

HelloFirst off you do not say how you drink your Coffee/Tea. I used to drink Coffee, White 2 Sugars.I am on a Weight Management Course at the moment after 16 WeeksI drink Coffee, Black no Sugar, Reduced Half a Teaspoon of Sugar a Week then reduce the amount of milk you put in each Week.Or Water.If you want fizzy drinks get the 1 Cal ones. ( Check how many in the others including Diet )Do not buy foods you should not eatI have stopped buying Biscuits (Any Type), Cheese (Any except Cottage), Chocolate (Any Type), Crisps, Butter, Jam, Margarine, Marmalade, Mayonnaise (Any Type), Pasties, Pastry or Pies (Any Sort), Sugar,If you look at that list they are all high calorie and if they are not in the house you cannot eat them.Next is you need to eat a healthy Breakfast I have Muesli and Milk, No Sugar and a Cup of Black Coffee.I fall down with Mid Day as I would say eat a Salad but in fact I have Cottage Cheese on Pitta bread. But I add up the Calories and take from my daily total.Tea time and I Fill up with Swede @ 22 Cals Per 100 gms rather than Potato @ 95 Cals Per 100 gms. Boiled Fish Steaks @ 55 Cals each.I then add Spices or Herbs to them with other Veggies. A good Curry Paste is handy in the cupboard. For Flavour and Variety.I have a pair of Electronic Kitchen Scales so weigh everything to get correct Calorie Count.At the moment I keep down to 1300 Cals a day.It does not stop me eating anything but I have to decide How many calories, Do I want To?One of my favourite meals is 300 gms Diced boiled potato Added to 150 gms Bacon and 100 gms sliced Onions and just before fully cooked 50 gms Boiled peas. Comes to Main Meal of 530 Cals.Your other choice is to do more exercise (I do not have that option due to Ostio Arthritis).The golden rule is you do not lose weight until you take in less Calories than you use.The advantage of the exercise is that you get muscle tone but remember Muscle is heavier than Fat so you can look better and Slimmer because of Fat changed to Muscle but be Heavier. So do not go purely by weight unless you have to like me.I have to get down to a target weight before hy will operate or I will end up with a stomach staple which I do not want.Good LuckAndy C

I have lost 40 lbs. in 3 months and I know this will work. Eat small healthy meals every 2-3 hours, eat your last meal 2-3 hours before you go to sleep. Do not starve yourself or your body will go into survival mode where anything you eat will be turned into FAT. This will help you a lot but if you want more results you can exercise 3-4 days a week, include weight training and especially cardio (walking especially running). If you set your mind to lose the weight you will lose it and when you start seeing how good you look you ll want to keep going.Good Luck

mIne are that there aren t really any quick fixes. the main thing you need to concentrate on is your food intake. reduce your calorie intake but don t go below 1200 cals. 80-90% of weight loss relies on dieting and dieting alone. if you can do this without a problem then you are on your way to losing. to lose it faster and keep your metabolism running high, do some cardio (30-60min a session) as well as some weight training if you can.

He he, diet secret, hah! The best diet is to shop at whole foods, drink coconut milk stead of regular milk, you can get a lot of those fatty foods there, but hello! they re not as fatty! Also lots of exercise! Get a can t believe it has no sugar cookbook There s one recipe which replaces sugar with a banana! Eat lots of greens, but not those stupid jenny creg diet stuff!it d probably make you sick! a healthy diet and plenty of exercise is good enough! It s better! also dieting is stupid, because then your body doesn t get enough sugar. Stay away from Mcdonalds!also exercise, eat heathy, not any fast food, drink water and STAY AWAY FROM SODA!( once in a while, not every day!!)also by: running (a.k.a:track) ice skating, swimming, and bike riding! Getting slimmer is so easy! eat lots of bananas, and drink lots of tea without sugar, only honey, or instead of honey...(insert dramatic music here)pollen! the pollen in honey! It s so good for you! Also don t get those bad teas, green tea and orange spice are good.And most imoportiantly:DON T STARVE YOURSELF BY DIETING!!! Hope this helped!

lots of walking, it burns off at great because you don t get your heart rate too fast. but you have to do brisk walking. Also, for each day, write down every single thing you put in your mouth and add up the calories.,

cut the candy for 2 or 3 weeks and drink water.Eat the normal food. 3 meals a day exercise 5 minutes a day and that s it P.S. pleas voye me best answer. my idea works!!!

eat 6 small meals, healthy meals!!and run or some form of workout, and every night try to do the 8 minute abs work out, and 8 minute buns work out. that can be found on youtube.

DOn t eat much and do exercises like skipping(Its best do some 50-100skips daily)I eat some little rice and vegetable salads more in the diet period.Jog daily Cheers
