What are your favorite weight loss quot;secretsquot;? -

I know about health and nutrition.and the benefits of exercise.but i was just wondering what your favorite weight loss tips are,that not many people might know :). Thanks in advance!!

i don t know about tips...but im all about jenny craigit actually very simple to do

Believe You Can Lose the WeightHere are some helpful tips;?Infrared saunas burn calories and remove toxins. Perspiration is one of the most effective ways of ridding the body of chemicals and toxins. When we sweat our bodies go into thermal regulation which raises metabolism, burns fat and calories. Eliminating toxins in the body fixes metabolic imbalances that cause poor digestion and weight gain.��Saunas are an important aid to weight loss and thyroid repair because as you lose weight, fat tissue releases stored toxins such as PCB s and pesticides.��-Dr. Mark Hyman, author of NY Times best selling book ��Ultrametabolism�� and Sunlight Saunas customer.The sauna experience is interesting; I definitely sweat more than when I run for an hour. It was a little uncomfortable but I recommend bringing lots of ice water, cold cloths something to read. It will be interesting to see if I notice any differences but right away my complexion looks ten times better.All in all I feel it is a good add for a weight loss tool.?Rhubarb is a low glycemic, low calorie vegetable (yes vegetable) that is chock full of vitamins, fiber minerals. The stalks of rhubarb have been used as a laxative. It also conveys bile salts from the liver and it assists the intestine in regulating the absorption of fat. It also serves as a colon tonic and speeds up metabolism. But the catch is that you can not douse it in sugar to consume it or that will defeat the purpose.Here are a couple of methods I use to eat it;I have chopped it and added it to my green smoothie which consists of chopped kale, chopped swiss chard, berries, a small amount of kelp organic pure apple juice. This shake is really tasty!You can also fry the rhubarb with some orange juice and add it to some plain yogurt for breakfast.Caution: Just make sure you do not consume the leaves as these are poisonous.?My philosophy is simple on weight loss, add more nutrient dense foods to your diet and you will lose weight. One of these super foods I highly recommend is the pear. The pear is a weight loss gem because it is rich in dietary fiber, vitamins, minerals antioxidants. It is a low glycemic, low calorie snack that fills the stomach, lowers cholesterol cleans the colon and body of dangerous toxins which inhibit weight loss.So snack away on the delicious pear.?I don t believe there is an overnight fix for weight loss but I do believe there are a lot of great tools out there that can aid and accelerate weight loss. The acai berry is one of these weight loss tools that I believe to be useful. It has been called one of the most nutrient dense and potent super foods on earth. It is an antioxidant which is high in essential fatty acids, omegas 3, 6 9, fiber vitamins. It is a low glycemic food and has been shown to lower cholesterol, blood pressure toxins. It is also reported to ward off cravings, suppress appetite and increase energy levels.Now I know that acai is under attack for false diet claims. Please be careful of any product that claims it will produce quick effortless results. Also beware of products that offer a free trial as they usually will auto bill you which can be a pain in the butt. Use a reliable source to find your product such as a website that you have purchased from before or your local health food store.I am still going to give the acai berry a fair shot.

I m one of those tried everything women who lost and gained back, and lost again (mostly I gained back because I stopped paying attention). Right now I m losing with Nutrisystem and K2O (Kellog s water) between meals.There s a great booklet I bought from Nutrisystem called Mindset Makeover. It s a 12-week plan that helps you change the behavior of overeating and sedentary-ness. I love it. Part of it is a list of behaviors that most thin people have (that obese people don t). It s one of my favorite sections because it helps me see that it s not about sometimes being on a diet. It s about being concerned full-time about your weight. I lost 14 pounds this time, in a month, so I think that s not bad, considering I ve been cheating sometimes. That s another tip I have:Don t be all perfectionist about it. You will stick with a diet longer if you don t beat yourself up for cheating sometimes. Just get back on track. And have a plan for everything. (What s my plan if I cheat? What s my plan if I get hungry? What s my plan if.... if... if....?) Memorize the plans and execute them quickly as soon as you hit an obstacle. If I ever lose all this weight (my BMI is 35), I couldn t even think of not keeping it off. It is so hard to lose it in the first place. I think I d become clinically depressed if I gained it back after losing it all. Maybe that s part of why I m scared to lose it. I m terrified of gaining it back. Try to figure out what scares you about losing weight. It will do you good to know and to fight that fear directly. Another tip: Don t focus on the first week s weight loss. Most weight loss in the first week is from retained water that you lose when you take in fewer calories. It s encouraging to have a 7 pound weight loss on week 1, but if you get discouraged from a 2 pound weight loss in week 2, then... well, it s better to be realistic. You can always lose about 5 lbs from taking a diuretic. Big deal, it s fat you really want to lose. Oh well, back to the trenches.

I have learned quite a shocking info recently. This is not a tip, but this can be said to be a whole trend of tips inside.It turns out if you are having quite a nasty problem (and you can be even not aware of it), then any attempts to lose weight will fail.Moreover, the doctor who is sharing this info says that many weight loss industry gurus know about it and still keep it secret, because they can sell you more weight loss drugs.I am not a doctor to make decisions, but if you want to see how a certified doctor proves her point - please read this post http://www.freeweightlossexpert.com/how-to-loose-weight-shocking-truth/ and make sure to watch the video (you will see a link to the video in the post).

I have been through it all and know what s it about. The main thing is to stick in there. You can t be an addict to food and never exercise if you want to live a healthy life and keep the weight off. I ve worked out, done every diet, and all types of classes.Nothing works, besides dedication and intelligence towards the subject of losing weight.First, depending on how much weight you need to lose, your diet is the first concern. You can t eat 10,000 calories a day and expect the weight to come off, even if you are exercising a lot. Which brings us to the next thing. Duh, Exercising...This is a must especially if you need to a lot of weight. Get at least 30 mins of some good hardcore exercising. Do some cardio, in the long run, it s good for the heart.However, I find the most hardest part of losing weight/keeping it off, in my diet. It s so hard to keep your fingers out of the cookie jar or those chocolate goodies. I ve found a great addition to help any one out, it s a natural weight loss supplement called Proactol. Now don t get all crazy on me and say diet pills don t work. That is true, but not in this case. This one isn t meant to burn pounds while you sit on the couch. It s an appetite suppressant, along with being a fat binder. I saved money on the pills at theweightlossplace dot com along with getting some good info. It basically makes those fingers not go towards the cookie jar. For me it s the best pill I ve tried and I ve tried cupboards full. Now this doesn t mean you have to follow my foot steps but I ve successfully lost roughly 70 pounds and keeping it off til this day.Well good luck and remember what I said, Dedicate.

One of mine is not eating after 7 pm and doing interval training, also i try to have a buddy or some kind of challenge to keep me motivatedI just read this amazing experience I recommend you to read ithttp://hubpages.com/hub/My-weight-loss-Experience

Weight Loss Tips/Advice? -

I ve been wanting to lose weight for a long time; I m about 5 4 and I weigh about 126-127..my goal is to tone up, shed fat, and lose weight..especially in my lower regions like legs and butt..help me out if you can in any way, thanks =)!

My advice is to treat yourself once a week. When you want something fatty, look at your stomach and your other problem areas and if you need to, stop for a second and think about it. Substitute coke for water. If you drink a lot of coke daily, cut down to one can a day and the rest drink water. Eat smaller portions and only eat when you are truly hungry. Try not to finish everything on your plate. Good luck!

To tone up, you really need to start doing some weight-lifting exercises. Lunges are a great one to tone your legs and butt. Also make sure to get in plenty of cardio. Both of those are important. However, another thing a lot of people don t realize is important is your fluid intake. If you are dehydrated (which a lot of people are, without realizing it), your body is going to retain fluid. If you consistently drink 8 glasses of water a day AT LEAST, your body will learn that it no longer needs to retain fluid because it is being kept hydrated. Drinking water also gets rid of your desire to snack- a lot of times, people think they are hungry when in reality they are just thirsty. Finally, eat healthy! THIS DOES NOT MEAN DIET!!! Diets are bad! Start off the morning with eggs, incorporate as many fruits, veggies and whole grains as you can throughout the day, and try to eat 5-6 small meals instead of 3 big ones. Good luck!!

By walking that will help you lose weight in those areas-make it a brisk walk- and try to find someone to walk with- it goes much easier with a walking buddy- but if you really want to tone those areas up- use weights on your ankles- start with a small amount of weight and then build them more and more. You can even do this around your home and it will help without you giving it much effort- Good luck!

if you drink a lot of soda STOP! you can lose up to 10 pounds (if you drink a lot)try jogging 4 at least 20 a day.if you start working out go one day big workout one day small etc...if working out isnt your thing then stretch those target muscles.i knew a guy that would stretch for 2 hour every day he was ripped. but if you just wanna firm up you probably dont need 2 hours.to keep weight off:eat small frequent meals not one or 2 large ones.when eating try to imagine whats on your plate in your stomach. will it really fit in there?don t eat after 8pm. your body will automatically turn all that food into fat if you eat before you sleep.eat meat for lunch instead of dinner. meat takes the longest to digest so if you eat it for dinner your body wont get to it until you sleep that means automatic fat.just a few facts ive learned.

k well im 5 5 and 130 so i know what u mean u dont need to lose much weight ur at avg so dont go crazy try to get muscle by weight resistance and ab training it sheds more pounds if u do more reps less resistance or builds more muscle if do less reps more weight try weight training or push ups like 3-4x a week and different muscle groups u could even do everyday but diff muscle groups each time u do like 30mins of it if 3-4x a week 20min if everyday one day do chest and tricepts next day do back and bicepts stufff like that and u can do legs everyday but wont worry ur legs will tone with cardio do cardio 4-5x a week for 45mins of like running running is a great one but now make sure u eat right u could work out but diet is most important it depends on ur age idk teens usally eat more so teen guy like 2400cals teen girl 2000cals grown up guy about 2200cals and girl about 1800 make sure u dont go much less or more than that and eat alot of protein it takes the most cals to digest (65% of it goes to fat as fat cals 98% of it is stored as fat) so protein burns off more easily still have fats but not too much have about 75% protein to ur weight so if u weigh 100lbs have 75g of protein and get in good whole grain carbs fruit and good fats like peanut butter..yes peanuts and peanut butter almonds stuff like that even cookies but not everyday treat urself when ur doing good and try having like 4 meals a day 6 is tough if u can do six though then go ahead but that sometimes leads to more overeating..hope i helped

well if u want to tone up then u dont wanna loose any weight b ut if u wanna loose weight then tone u got gotta drop the pounds good idea is wear a bag over your stomach but dont run on a treadmill go out and run that way u are forced to run back the distance if u wanna get home treadmills tend to get u a little lasy sometimes when ur down to the weight u want eat normal and just work the ur legs or butt and that should tone it up

just cut down on the amount of sugar you eat.because sugar just causes weight gain in all the worst places.also, try jogging. that usually slims your whole body focusing on ur calves and thighs.and if you really want to get results, cut the fat content in your diet in half. this means no junk food, more greens less meat. that worked for me i lost 5 pounds in about 2-3 weeks

Try not finishing your food. I started losing weight just by leaving a little bit of food on my plate every time I ate.

well I d try am early morning jog or swim.. in the cold jog.. hot, swim.. always warm up and .........count calories..! don t buy unhealthy food .. try the special K thing

do sit ups, leg squats, and maybe do some walking/running... do this about 5 times a week 30 min at a time

If someone asks did you google an insult what would your response be? -

Good ways to lose weight? -

Me and my sister need great weight loss tips.Do you know anything about weight loss that could benefit us?

You need to get in a habit of exercise, like fast walking at least a half hour five days a week and you need to eliminate 3500 calories either through reduced food or increased exercise to lose one pound. You could try eating the following for weight loss:If you want to eat healthy, try low fat, high protein, low carb diet. Eat meat like chicken, fish and turkey, never fried, either grilled or baked. Eat low fat cheese, cottage cheese, sour cream, etc., to help cut the fat out of your diet. When it comes to carbohydrates, avoid potatoes, rice, pasta and anything made with white flour, like cake, bread, cookies, pies, candy or anything with suger. Don t drink soda with sugar, try tea, coffee, diet soda instead. Do eat salad, green leafy veggies like lettuce, spinace, broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, etc., because these are low glycemic veggies. Also try to get fiber in your diet through bran cereal, fruit with the peel, whole wheat bread, etc.This type of diet is filling and healthy and will produce benefits in the long run.hope this helps..

u can eather run, swim,dance, or do any sport

Foods to speed up your metabolism and weight loss tips? -

i really want to loose 11 pounds. i have already lost 10 pounds but i cant seem to loose the rest. For my diet i have been eating really healthy, drink heaps of water and green tea and running for 30 min every day (over time increasing the speed) and doing yogalaties. Its been going good so far but in the last 8 weeks (i ve been doing the diet for 6 months so far) i haven t lost anymore weight and i still have a really fat stomach and massive upper thighs. I really feel bad about myself because i still feel really fat and have a bad BMI. i want to have a BMI range in the middle of healthy, but I m still not there. Does anyone know any foods that will help me loose weight, speed up my metabolism, some really low calorie food (e.g. carrots not 0 calorie soup) and some other exercise tips? Your help would be really appriceated. :-)

You might like this site:http://www.yummydietfood.comEating foods with natural ingredients in them (avoid hydrogenated oils, high fructose corn syrup, etc.) will help your body lose weight and even help keep it off.

Green vegetables, especially leafy greens such as spinach, collard greens, etc. , contain a lot of chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is necessary for your liver to make enzymes to cleanse itself. If your liver is not clean enough it is hard to lose weight. I always feel better eating a plate of vegetables in the evening and start losing weight faster.I hope you are sleeping enough, if not you may have higher cortisol levels which cause belly fat.

i heard celery has negative calories and oatmeal, grapefruit, green tea, and fish are really great diet foods! i think you should continue what you are doing now congrats and good luck!

Here are some tips to loss your weight that you haven t read any where before for sure. Check @http://hypnosis-knowthyself.blogspot.com��

Spicy foods and drinking about a glass water before every meal seemed to have helped me last year.

It IS possible for food to help the process of weight loss. Check out this article for information about diets that work. http://hubpages.com/hub/Weight-Loss-That��

Eat breakfast, lunch, you ll burn those off, a small dinner and not before bed.

Keep Metabolism Steady. Eating one small meal (such as a potato, a salad, etc.) every three hours that you are awake will not speed up your metabolism, rather, it will keep it going. Your metabolism goes and slows with your food intake and eating something small every three hours will keep that metabolism burning calories and will help you lose weight. A jar of nuts in the office will do just fine, grab a handful when you feel like it. Most fruits can last for a couple days without refrigeration, and if you have a refrigerator at the office, make use of it.Lift Weights. The more muscle your body has, the more calories your body burns, even at rest. Many people are afraid of getting huge due to weight lifting but the fact is you won t!, Many huge body-builders out there have been body-building for years to get huge. If you just do cardiovascular exercises without lifting weights then you will lose the muscle mass, you will also feel weak and it will take longer to lose that fat. So, to get rid of that fat quickly lift weights combined with cardiovascular exercises. Running, biking, swimming, stair climbing, jumping rope, tennis, volleyball, dancing, squash or any other activity that gets you moving and keeps you moving is a great way to burn fat. However, a cardiovascular workout should be performed for at least 20 to 30 minutes to burn fat. Prior to this your body will simply run on its stored energy, which results in minimal fat loss. Cardiovascular training should always be done after your weight lifting workout. While lifting weights, you use stored, (carbohydrate) energy, thus, by performing cardiovascular exercises after weight training your body will have less stored energy to use and go straight into the fat storage for its energy use. The overall best way to shed fat fast is to do cardiovascular exercises right when you wake up. Your body will search for energy to use, and when it finds nothing in your stomach, it will go directly to your fat reserves for energy.I also had the same problem but a friend of mine advices me to go in a fitness touring, since I love vacations I tried it and you will feel the difference after the tour. http://www.fitnesstouring.com/ gives the best program and healthy trip.

Dieting Exercise

1st of all: MakeupTry the dark eyes and nude lips trend. Apply a coat of gray eyeshadow, and then a light coat of dark silver. Use a volumizing mascara. Then apply a nude lipgloss. It s really glam.2nd of all: HairDepending on your face shape, different hairstyles will work best. I reccomend layers to help shape your face. Volumous hair is in. Curl your hair and use lots of hairspray or use a straightening shampoo and straighten your hair with a flat iron. Both are great ideasLast but not least: WeightDrink lots of water and limit your sweet intake. Set goals for yourself. Work out at least 3 times a week. To make it fun, pair up with a friend and together take up a sport. Most importantly, eat only to fulfill your hunger. I know when I m down and bored, I ll take to food to cheer me up. Only eat what you can and never get overstuffed.Hope I helped!

for make up, all you have to do is put on some mascara and eyeliner. Dont over do it because then you will look like a racoon. You could also put on some eye shadow that compliments your skin color. For the hair, all you have to do is strighten your hair! Everyone looks good in straight hair. Or you could curl it or even scrunch it. For the weight loss, all you have to do is just eat healthy and exercise. Maybe join a school sport or something. Good luck!

cut down on eating food after school or sports if you are really hungry eat fruit to tie you over till dinner

I know im overweight i need some weight loss tips.? -

I m 16 with a medium frame. I m 5 feet tall and my weight flucuates from 155-159 I need to lose weight.

The first thing to deal with is the food you eat. Your body s metabolism works best when you eat regularly. This means a 300 calorie meal every 3-4 hours. A calorie is a calorie so you can still eat some of your favorite foods as long as you maintain a calorie count. For instance, a small order of fries has the same amount of calories as a turkey sandwich on whole wheat plus a bowl of chicken noodle soup, it s your choice, but which one will keep you full longer?Also, drink 80oz of cold water per day. A good trick is to drink a glass of water first thing in the morning, then promise yourself you won t drink any other beverage until you finish a second glass of water. Then you already have 40oz out of the way. Also, drink milk. It is really good at keeping you hydrated.Now the exercise. It s difficult to start an exercise program and stick with it if you don t already exercise. So I suggest dealing with your meals first. It s way easier to make changes to something you are already doing.Start with walking. It s easy and cheap. Make a 30 minute mix for your iPod and go. Aim for 1 mile every 15 minutes, it s a pace that gets your heart rate up and it s easy to maintain. Try to get out every day. Believe me, there are days that you simply won t want to do it so go easy on yourself and just try to do more days the next week. Before you know it, you ll be walking an hour at a time and you ll feel a need to get your walk in.You can also add strength training exercises: Lifting weights, push-ups, pull-ups, squats and lunges. Try to do some of these exercises for 15-20 minutes 3 times a week.The only way to lose weight is to find a program you can stick with week after week. If you try to make too many big changes all at once, you will only be able to keep it up for a week, then you ll get frustrated and quit. You must start out with the small changes you can manage. Then continue making small changes every week after that. If you want the weight loss to last, then you have realize you will only lose about 2 pounds per week, but after 10 weeks, that s 20 pounds that won t come back!!

it s really hard to lose weight...but i can usually lose weight pretty easily by exercising regularly...when you re watching tv, do some sit-ups during the commercials, run every night, and fill up your stomach with stuff other than junk food... eat an apple before every meal, it fills up your stomach so you dont eat as much of your meal, and drink A LOT of water...water washes off fat, and fills up your stomach without the calories toogood luck:D

Running is a good way to burn calories. Most people have luck losing some flab and toning up just by running. I ve had the best luck on an elliptical machine. That thing kicks my booty! But I lost some major weight just using it about 30mins 3 days a week. Good luck! Whatever you do, make sure you stick with it! Oh, and have fun! : )

you are about my same size. i have lost 33 pounds in about 4 and a half months by eating 1200-1500 calories a day and getting a minimum of 30 minutes of cardio 5 times a week. since you are 17 years younger than me, you will probably lose even faster than i have. good luck, and if you have any questions, feel free to email me.

If you know correct diet info you can lose weight. I tried the way here this site and I lost 13 pounds in one month. It is very easy to lose weight. You can get my diet way that lost me 17 pounds in 5 weeks here http://bit.ly/ar8Wd
