If you want to lose weight, you need to two things: eat less and exercise more. Weight gain happens when you create a calorie surplus (eat more than you burn). Your body takes the excess calories and converts them to fat which get stored around your stomach, arms and thighs. The longer you remain in a calorie surplus, the more weight you ll gain. To lose that weight, you need to do the opposite. You need to create a calorie deficit (start eating less than you burn). Your first step is to figure out how many calories you burn on a daily basis. This calculator will help you out http://calorieneedscalculator.com The number you get from this tool is what your body burns on a daily basis. To lose weight, simply eat less. It sounds a lot easier than it is but making small changes helps you adjust to a new lifestyle. Don t think of this as a diet, think of it as a new life. Instead of eating foods high in sugars, white flour and saturated fat, go with fruits, vegetables, whole wheats, fish, lean meats, nuts and beans. In addition to eating less, you also need to exercise more. Start off at 1-2 times per week and work your way up to 3-5 times per week.Don t make all of these changes at once or you won t be able to properly adjust to them. Generally, eating healthier foods will decrease your calorie intake. Compare a doughnut to an apple and you ll see that healthy foods are lower in calories.

You really need to stop drinking soda all together. You can have a little bit of junk food just once a week, and a healthy diet as a lifestyle.You can start by walking 10 minutes, then increase it 20 minutes and then 30 minutes. Then you try walking for 10 minutes, jogging for 10 minutes and walking for ten minutes- you will still be doing 30 minutes of cardio, but its more intense and you will continue to see results. You will be taking care of yourself so you will not only look better, you will feel better.
well I m a trainer so here it goes, Make sure your eating healthy cut out all the junk crap like chocolate and fast foods... eat plenty of fruit and veg but make sure none of the food contain hydrogenated fat in it (you can see this on the label!) Then go to the gym or run or join a sports club and train 3 - 5 times a week. this is your basic version if you would like more details feel free to contact me.
hey, if you carry alot of weight around your tummy area then you could try doing sit ups to tone it. Toning it will make a huuge difference. As for diet - eat plenty of protein and veg and not as many carbs. Exercise for 20 minutes a day. Treat yourself a couple of times a week. Let yourself have some of something good. if you restrict it totally your doomed to failure! Also, dont wiegh yourself all the time. Take care and good luck.x
i know im a rail lolz but i was told the key to losing weight is to be the normal way you are meaning to eat whatever just lessen ur portions and you will see a difference
Try eating 5 or 6 small meals a day of about 200-300 cals each and just so you dont feel deprived, make 1 day a week a cheat day where you can have the junk food you crave...but dont go overboard
um a lot of water!!!! and exercise, swimming... water helps you lose soo much weight! i changed my coke and pepsi to water and i lost weight in a few weeks...
Try to completely stop really junky foods! And have like 3 desserts a week. DONT GET OBSESSIVE THOUGH! Try and get a mini tramp and jump 30 mins a day.Good Luck :)
try drink mixes that have appetite controll shttuuff in them. or stop eating junk food:)
Stick to things that are similar to what you eat now so you don t feel like you are deprived. Flavored waters and some diet drinks. And as far as junk food switch from chips to rice cakes. You d be surprised how may flavors they have and how good they are. They have salty and sweet ones. Even chocholate :). Also Make sure to drink 2 glasses of milk a day or milk products like yogurt or cheese.Switch to reduced calorie bread, white or wheat it doesn t matter.Stock up on lean quizines and lean pockets, They are really easy to make and very healthy.Write everything you eat down along with calories. Cutting out regular sodas alone...you would be surprised how much that can help.Eat lots of veggies and fruit and drink lots of water.As far as exercise goes, Do things you enjoy, like whatever sports you are into. Or maybe invest in a exersise bike or treadmill.Good luck!
first, I would say throw away your scale and don t worry about weight. in every magazine i have read, i read that the best way to be comfortable with yourself is a mirror and weight shouldnt matter because muscle weighs more than fat so those 25 pounds that you want to lose could be from muscle.second, snack less, don t eat after eight , and maybe instead of three meals eat five real small meals , not five meals , five SMALL meals. this will cut out snacking but keep you satisfied.third, get some of your friends to work our with to make it fun and that way you won t dread working out every day. or maybe walk your dog once a day.good luck and happy new year.
Well. There was this commercial on TV and it was called Flirty Girls Fitness Club . Basically,that losing weight program said that if u want to lose wait then they will teach you dance moves from videos. And they have you dance on chairs and act -in my opinion- very slutty. And it said if u call now then you could receive the Flirty Girls Fitness Club dance pole for 1 dollar!!! Im sitting here thinking to myself How can acting like a slut and dancing on a pole help you lose weight?? I first thought it would work then i started thinking, and i was like no way. So. You should try going to a gym and working out. Trust me its not alot of work. Or you can search the commercials and see what they can do for you. Your welcome girl! If it doesnt work then contact me. :)
You re only 17! Don t worry about losing weight! However, if you are going to, take it easy. Definitely lay of the junk food, and coke. You could try doing like 3 sets of 10 sit ups at night and in the morning, although, spot work outs may not help. Walking is really good exercise. The idea is to lose 1lb a week. To do that, if you work out how many calories you use a day (usually around 2000), and then you cut 250 calories from your diet, and then 250 in exercise, you will lose it in no time.I lost 3 stone in just over 3 months with this method....it is possible. Just remember how much you want to lose the weight when u pick up a soda :)
