Weight loss tips for couples? -

I have a fiancee and we are both overweight. The problem is that we both want to lose weight but we feed off of the others bad habits. I love sweets, he loves snacks. It s just so hard to get motivated. Any tips?

The best advice for couples is do it together. Join a gym and workout together or just join a class together. Y all should join a nutrition class or support group and help each other out if one person is slipping toward that cake! Another way that is really beneficial is to make losing weight a competition between the two of you. It worked for me and my mom. We feed off each other if one person doesn t want to exercise we motivate the other and we try to out do each other on who can lose the most weight. Losing weight is hard and the workouts may seem boring and never ending but with a partner it becomes fun. I don t know how many times I laughed at my mom mess up on a billy blanks tae bo dvd. ^_^

In Need Of Some Weight Loss Advise? -

OKAY...1st. Im not sure what diet to do... A.Low CarbB.Cut CaloriesC.Weight WatcherD.Liquid Diet2nd. I weight 244 lbs and i am 6 2 [ive already lost close to 7 lbs in about 2 weeks just watching what im eating and exercising] but i want to loss MORE! By January 15 i would like to have lost 25 - 30 lbs. Is this possible? 3rd. Some fast weight loss tips would be greatly appreciated!Thanks!

If you want some quick tips, here s one: cut portion sizes. A cup of pasta is two servings. Measure that out: that s a small portion size. When you get nutritional information on packages, it will always tell you serving sizes. Easiest way to count calories is to eat the ACTUAL serving size. As for the options you suggested:A) Low carb works, but it s hard to stick with. And if you go too low in carbohydrates your diet is no longer healthy.B) All diets involve cutting calories in some way.C) Weight watchers programs tend to have lots of support with them, and there are many people that swear by them. Having someone to talk to regularly when you re trying to lose a lot of weight can keep you focused. I don t know about fast, but this so far is your healthiest option.D) You re a big person. You still need fuel even when you re losing weight. A liquid diet just is NOT going to give you the fuel your body needs. And once you lose the weight and go back on to real food, you haven t made any changes to your normal eating habits, so the weight will come right back.

I don t share this with everyone but, here it goes. I was given this Mayo Diet, and I lost 11 lbs in 10 days.Good Luck!!Diet for two weeks, do not stay on this diet for more than 14 days.No eating between meals. No alcoholic beverages.All vegetables without butter, salads without oil, lean meat.Coffee tea clear. Weight should drop about 20 lbs with two weeks dieting. The basis of this diet is chemical. It maintains normal energy while reducing.Quantities are unimportant except where indicated. Breakfast: (same everyday) Grapefruit or 6 oz. Grapefruit juice, 1 or 2 eggs boiled or poached. MON: LUNCH: Fruit salad, all and any, as much as desired MON: DINNER: Steak, tomatoes, lettuce, celery, cucumbers, coffee. TUES: LUNCH: Cold chicken, tomatoes, coffee. TUES: DINNER: 2-Eggs, combo salad, 1-piece dry wheat toast, Grapefruit WED: LUNCH: 2-Eggs, tomatoes, coffee. WED: DINNER: 2-Lamb chops, celery, cucumbers, tomatoes, coffee. THU: LUNCH: Fruit salad, all and any, as much as desired THU: DINNER: Steak, tomatoes, lettuce, celery, cucumbers, coffee. FRI: LUNCH: Egg, spinach, coffee. FRI: DINNER: Fish (broiled or boiled), salad, 1-piece dry wheat Toast, grapefruit, coffee SAT: LUNCH: 2-Eggs, spinach, coffee. SAT: DINNER: Plenty of steak, tomatoes, lettuce, celery, cucumbers, Coffee SUN: LUNCH: Fruit salad, all any, as much as desired. SUN: DINNER: Chicken, tomatoes, carrots, cooked cabbage, Grapefruit, coffee. REPEAT THROUGH THE SECOND WEEK STOP Eat normally after completing the diet, but go easy on the starches for a few weeks. MEALS MUST BE EATEN IN THE EXACT ORDER

Exercise everyday like jogging around the blockSkip meals. Eat 2 times per day than 3 times per dayDont eat until you re fullEat fruits at night if your hungry.Drinks lots of water and stop all the fast food and chocolate.There are more tips and info.there s a video on success fitness too.http://helpyourself.50webs.com

well done!A calorie controlled diet is the best way to lose weight, its fast but healthy.Hmm i think it is possible because you are exercising as well.Make sure you drink loooads of water (at least 10 glasses a day) and not too much salt as that makes you retain water weight.Herbal teas work too.Good luck!

Obviously you have a reason for wanting a quick diet solution because you mentioned a date-Jan 15. It s great that you re exercising, but you really shouldn t think diet. Those fad diets with quick weight lost are not healthy and when you go back to your normal eating habits your weight usually doubles. Try smaller portions at meal time and healthy snacks in between like: fruit, protein bars, nuts. That way you re not starving yourself and you feel satisfied. Cut down on the carbs and drinking lots of water. This should yield results that will not only help reach your goal for Jan 15, but even beyond that. Oh! and don t eat late at night. Try to have dinner before six o clock. I lost 15pds in two weeks and I wasn t exercising at all! I never feel hungry and I don t have the temptation to over indulge because I feel satisfied.Think life style change-not crash diet...All the best

I need an exercise plan to strengthen my abdominal muscles, one that I can do at home? -

I want to build my abs. What kind of exercise should I be doing to target my core body, and how many times a day? I am already thin enough so I don t need diet or weight loss tips.I want to achieve noticeable abdominal muscles by the beginning of July. Is there a way I can do this in 5-6 months?

If you do not already have one, purchase a stability ball and do weighted crunches on the ball, and also do corkscrews, planks and side planks. Stop at you local bookstore for books on abdominal training and functional strength training or do some internet research for further details. Yes, you can accomplish a lot in 5 or 6 months.
