How to lose weight in short amount of time? -

i am 13 and weight 50-53 kg....i am quite short so i look fat....how can i lose weight over the school holidays?

When you are losing weight, you should exercise and diet together.If you exercise without dieting, you will get bigger appetite, whichwill lead to increase of weight, or muscle growunderneath the fat layer, and make you bulkier. If you diet withoutexercising, you will become flabby and will have excess skin. Fordiet, go wheat free. No pasta, pizza, bread and so on. And no foodafter 7 p.m. People achieve marvellous results with it. Depending onyour initial weight, you can drop upwards from 20 pounds a month. Ifyou don t eat wheat then you don t eat all those sticky, fatty goeycakes, you don t eat junk food, and you don t eat biscuits. But yourdiet is still balanced. It costs nothing, and you do not have tocalculate points or to buy special meals or plans. For exercising,start with walking, and then switch to running/jogging. Running is themost efficient and calorie-burn exercise ever. If you are overweight alot, walk first or you may have health complications (heart attack,disjointed bones and so on). Weight lifting is a good means to targetyour problem areas for men and women. It s not necessarily to become abodybuilder or even join a gym - a couple of dumbbells will help youto target your problem areas (stomach, butt, legs, arms, chest).

Wal-mart has a drink called The Hollywood Diet for about 15 dollars, it really does work. You can lose about 10 pounds in 2 days. The only problem is you gain the weight back after about a week. But its perfect if you re just trying to lose the weight for a party to fit into that perfect dress or something.

Limit yourself to 1000-1500 calories per day of fruits, veggies and very small amounts of low fat dairy. Also exercise some so that your metabolism doesn t slow down. Eat five 300-calorie meals of above foods spread during the day.No - junk food, soda, empty carbs, fast food. You should lose 2lbs a week, minimum. Sorry - tough, but fads, supplements and chemicals don t work - the weight will come right back on.

you re still 13, i m sure you ll lose some of that weight while you re growing. If you really want to lose weight, you can take a long walk with a friend or take a jog.You should do this in the morning cuz you lose more weight than you do in the afternoon.btw im also 13 i weigh around 49-51 kg

The fasted way to lose weight is exercise and a diet plan. Be on phentramin-d diet pills and you are bound to lose more weight. Check out on http://www.phentramin-d-user-reviews.com/phentramin-d/

At 13 dont fret about youre weigh...really. You have a lot of growing to do., Help it by eating right staying active. Join atteam, ride a bike, dance. Staying in shape is a life-style thing. Get started doing oit right now while you re young.And here:Teen averageshttp://kidshealth.org/teen/food_fitness/��http://teens.lovetoknow.com/Average_Heig��chart: http://www.disabled-world.com/artman/pub��

Completely quit junk food / fried food and eat lots of fruits and vegetables. Team healthy food with regular exercise and you ll be onto a winner!

take a slow walk or jog everyday and if you want, grab a friend. Also do crunches and pushups

Eat less. Move more.

How to lose weight REALLY FAST, as in March 15th? -

I ve heard it over and over-your husband should love you the way you are. That s fine but I still want to look good for him. I had a baby 4weeks ago, and have been exercising since she was 2weeks old. I ve been taking it easy. I ve lost 33lbs of the 41lbs I gained during pregnancy but I have 8 more to lose and I want to lose as much of the belly flab as I can without having to have a tummy tuck. Any suggestions? And are there any good creams or anything that will reduce stretch marks? I ve been told Maderma for scars...anyone?

Well, firstly, congratulations on losing 33 lbs. of baby weight in 4 weeks! First thing you want to do is calculate your BMR. That is how many calories you burn everyday if you just stayed in bed all day--in other words how many calories your body needs just to function. Once you discover this, you will be able to determine how many calories you will need to burn each day through exercise in order to lose your desired amount of weight. You can do that by going here: http://www.internetfitness.com/calculators/bmr.htm I would highly recommend getting a heart rate monitor--I use the polar F4 made specifically for women. It tracks your cardio workout and tells you how many calories you burn during your workout. I would also consider taking a Pilates or yoga class-- they are great workouts for core strength. You definitely do not want to skip out on your strength training because muscle burns way more calories than fat. As far as your diet is concerned, I would try to consume between 1200-1500 calories per day. Anything less would cause your body to go into starvation mode and could lower your BMR by as much as 20%. I recommend cutting out all refined sugars and carbohydrates; basically anything white: sugar, white bread, white rice, etc. If it doesn t say 100% whole grain, don t eat it. Also, try to get healthy fats into your diet--raw nuts, extra virgin olive oil, flaxseed, etc. And, cut out all of the unhealthy fats--such as saturated fats (from animals) and trans fats (partially hydrogenated oils). As far as stretch mark creams, there are few cream products that are going to help much, however, I have heard good things about something called TrilastinSR. I have no personal experience with it, but it has a 60 day money back guarantee, so you can always return it if it doesn t work. Also, there have been quite a few advancements in laser treatments recently. I hope this is helpful to you--and remember to congratulate yourself on the progress you have made and give yourself a break. You just had a baby! Your body has been through a lot, so don t push yourself too hard. Good luck!

The belly flab will go away in time, and not that much time -trust me, I know. If you want to lose the weight just eat half of what you are eating now and exercise like crazy. I can t help you with the stretch marks. I never had them because I manually stretched the skin and used lotion every day when I became pregnant. Doctors don t tell you these things, the idiots!!!

How to lose weight before holiday!? -

I need to tone up and lose weight to get rid of my tubby belly and bum! I m going on holiday in about 9-12 weeks and want to get from 136-140 lb to 112lb. Is this possible. My height is 5 6 is the weight I want to achive enough for a flat tummy? Should I join a gym for a few weeks? Any tips please.

There are many, many, *many* crazy methods people will come up with that claim to help you loose weight, but just remember the first law of thermodynamics: energy in = energy out+stored energy.If you take in more energy (measured in calories) in a day than you expend, your body will store this (as fat) so that you can use it at a later date. If you use more energy than you take in, your body will have to consume internal energy sources (first glycogen, stored in your muscles, then catabolic processes that break down fat and muscle tissue and convert it to energy).The most effective way of burning fat is long, low-intensity exercise. 60-minutes or more of running, cycling, rowing. The best advice I can give you is to find something that you really enjoy doing. I like cycling myself, and so exercise is not a chore but a pleasure and so I do it all the time.More importantly, though, is to do this *regularly*. The amount of fat you burn in a single session won t be enough to make a dent. Regular exercise over weeks and months raises your bodies resting metabolic rate, meaning you will burn more calories even when you aren t exercising.Other than that, the rest is obvious, eat a sensible, low-fat diet. Cut out any refined sugars (sugary drinks etc), refined flour (white bread, white pasta, white rice). Drink lots of water - this is *very* important, drink 2 litres every day in small, regular amounts. Recent studies have also shown that high-calcium diets can reduce the amount of fat that your body absorbs from your food, so stock up on low-fat milk, yogurt and cheese.You ll be looking good in no-time, but what is more is that you will feel great, with loads of energy and a positive outlook.Best of luck with it!

why not just join a gym? and keep going to be toned and slim all year round, im sure Liam would like that ;o)

Join the gym and be disciplined in going to the gym. You re not going to lose any weight by just joining the gym:) Nearly 30lb is a lot to lose in a few months. The right diet and exercise regime will make you look better even if you do not lose all the weight you want.

Try a cleansing diet! I did and lost 11 pounds and 21 inches in only 9 days. I was very happy with the results and continued on the program and lost 29 pounds in 5 weeks. This is the fastest I have ever lost with other diets like Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, Medifast, Slimfast etc��. Cleansing works by removing impurities from your body. You get impurities from your food (pesticides, preservatives, food additives, colorings) water, chemicals, pollution, medications, alcohol, hormones that the animals you eat were fed etc��.YUCK! The impurites get coated with fat and remain in your body. To remove the fat, you have to remove the impurites. This system worked for me, maybe it can work for you too. You can check out the website or call this toll free number 1-877-587-4647 for more info. The program is not cheap, but it is worth every penny since it works and keeps you motivated. Good luck! More cleansing info at http://diet4cleansing.com

, if losing some pounds of any description and inches is what you want then I would suggest you use a diet that is all natural and is rich in protein and vitamins, which is what the FDA recommends. I used a protein based diet after a friend who had lost a lot of weight with this recommended it to me. All the way through you feel great and energized, you also get great coaching and support along the way. The people are very friendly and gave me lots of great advice. I needed to lose 40 pounds and I did so with no problems. The products really work and you feel great whilst losing weight. I lost all my weight in less than four months and they have helped me to keep it off. I would definitely recommend using them. My sister did this also and lost 76 pounds in five months (She works out, I don��t). There is no pressure and they will even send you a load of free samples so you can try before you buy. The samples were the thing that initially convinced me that this was the right diet for me. You also a get a free complete health consultation with the samples, I just paid the postage and handling, but for what I got it was well worth it. You just to go to myhealthabc.com to register your details to get the free samples and the free advice etc and then they just call you up and ask you a few questions. It was so easy. Their main site is www.myhealthabcmall.com and you can see all the products and packages and order from their. Its nice to have contact with real people who care about you losing weight and improving your health. I am in better health now than I have ever been thanks to these products and I know that I will continue to keep the weight off with the help I have received. I hope this helps.

i find calories and swimming the best and definbately quickest way goodluck :)

Cut out bread pasta sweets eat more veg walk more smple remedes far more effective than expensive gyms.

Liam,Check out the page below...take the 10-week challenge. It s geared for a 1-pound per week weight loss which is pretty aggressive. If you exercise regularly and watch your calorie-intake you could lose weight a tad faster. Hope that helps! Have fun on holiday!- Mike

How long will it take me to lose 15lbs if I...? -

walk on the treadmill for 90 minutes at 4.3mph with various inclines and burn 500 calories?Im 15125lbs and want to get to 110lbsI eat about 1500-1700cals a dayalso if u have any weight loss tips that would be amazing

You probably don t need to lose weight, but that wasn t your question and I know how you feel (I m 16, 5 2 and 124lbs, with the same weight goal).If you re like me, you aren t really fat, but you know you would look better to lose about ten pounds. Walking to burn calories is good. Running works your abs more and I think it burns body fat better, but if you don t have good running shoes, it can really screw up your knees. Also, sit-ups and crunches aren t that effective. They will give you muscles, true, but all that is pointless if there is still fat covering it up. You have to get rid of fat by changing your diet to healthy foods (the less processed, the better) and moderate exercise. Keep in mind carbs (like bread) are starches and do store themselves as fat when you don t get enough exercise. Still, the Atkins diet is REALLY unhealthy, especially for teenagers.If you can do all that religiously, then you ll be good in about two months I d say. KEEP IN MIND, It is only healthy to lose about 1-3 lbs. a week. If you re losing way more than that, cut back some for health s sake. The last thing you want is people thinking you have an eating disorder, believe you me.

I DO NOT THINK YOU NEED TO LOSE ANY WEIGHT. THAT HEIGHT AND THAT WEIGHT ARE FINE. HOWEVER, YOU SAY YOU EAT ABOUT 1500-1700 CALS A DAY. DO YOU ACTUALLY WRITE EVERY CAL DOWN THAT YOU EAT? DO YOU DRINK SODAS. EACH REGULAR SODA HAS THE EQUIVALENT OF 13 TEASPOONS OF SUGAR IN. DO YOU EAT LOTS OF GREEN VEGGIES AND FRUIT? DO YOU STEER AWAY FROM THE SIMPLE CARBS? I THINK MAYBE YOU ARE NOT SURE HOW MUCH YOU ARE EATING. IF YOU DO AS MUCH TREADMILL AS YOU SAY AND ONLY EAT 1500-1700 A DAY YOU WOULD LOSE WEIGHT.ALSO TREADMILL WORK IS VERY BORING. BETTER TO GET OUTSIDE AND WALK IN THE FRESH AIR. THERE ARE HILLS AROUND THAT YOU CAN WALK AND YOU CAN VARY THE ROUTE AND TAKE IN NATURE AT THE SAME TIME. GOOD LUCK.

uuummm sounds like you dont even need to lose weight!

shoot for a month but 2 months prob.

Drink A LOT of water!!

umm, I would say round bout 4 or 5 weeks

How to lose weight and tone up in lt;EEKgt; 2 weeks!? -

Ok, more important is the toning here since i go on holiday in just under 2 weeks. I m 5 7 , F, and weigh about 149 ibs. I KNOW that is a healthy bmi, hence we re focusing on toning here. Losing weight would merely be an added bonus. What is the fastest way you know of tone up and sculpt your body?Thanks in advance.

lift weights 3-4 days a week and for cardio do high intensity interval training (HIIT). to do HIIT, start off with a 5 min warmup jog, then sprint for 30 seconds, then light jog/walk for one minute, then sprint for 30 seconds, then light jog/walk for one minute, and so for about 15- minutes or until you feel dead.You will burn a lot of calories this way, and since you will be doing sprints for a great amount of time, your body will continue to burn calories long after you stop running. This is a great and effective way to cut and tone up your body.

Vince Del Monte Fitness program teaches you the top nine, unknown anabolic secrets for hyper-drive muscle gain. These secrets are not found on any other website or book. You also learn how to gain five pounds of muscle every week so that at the end of two weeks, you will resemble the Incredible Hulk. With Vince Del Monte Fitness program, you learn now to optimize seven of your body��s fat burning and muscle growth hormones to get rid of the pot belly and get six pack abs. You are taught two secret 29 week weight training routines including the number of reps, weight and rest required to reach your six pack abs target.

The first thing you need to do to lose weight and tone your body is to start eating healthier foods. You can start off by eating five small, healthy meals each day. These meals need to be full of protein to help you burn fat. Some of my favorite sources of protein are cottage cheese, nuts, turkey, poultry, and eggs. Each meal you eat needs to contain at least 400 calories each. If you find that you re not losing weight you can cut calories out of your other meals. Eating small meals each day is great because it helps keep your metabolism going.The next thing you need is a proper exercise program. This doesn t mean you have to sprint out right away and buy a gym membership immediately. However it does mean that you need to do a few necessary things that will help you lose weight and get in shape. You can start by do some sort of your favorite cardio exercises. Everyone is different but I personally like to play basketball instead of running on a treadmill for hours on end.

sit ups,squats and push ups,and clenching muscles. Also correct posture helps the core. maybe eat more protein because it helps build muscle

Weight loss tips? -

Ok here s the thing. I want to lose like 5 pounds by Thursday 4/5. I don t need any lectures about how unhealthy it is to lose that much weight in such a small amount of time but I want it to happen. Any ideas? I don t have a lot of time during the day to work out so keep that in mind. Thanks.

Most of these are healthy choices, but you may find a couple that will help you.http://www.w8lossreviews.com/Diet_Tips.p��

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

I would suggest a cleansing diet. I did this and lost 12 pounds and 19 inches in 9 days. I continued and lost 29 pounds in a month. I like the program since it works by giving your body nutrition through protein shakes with digestive enzymes and vitamins and then cleansing out the toxins. We get toxins in our bodies from pesticides, preservatives, water, pollution, medications, food additives etc��. These toxins enter our bodies and get stored in our fat cells. To shrink the fat, we need to get rid of the toxins through cleansing. The program also has a natural diet pill to help your metabolism and curb cravings. It works and it works fast. My skin has improved from the cleansing. It is pricey but worth it! I think cleansing is really important to health and weight loss. Give it a try and good luck! http://diet4cleansing.com
