I want to lose as much as possible. I am walking at 3.2-3.5 mph on a treadmill for 60-90 min. a day. I do 30 min of ab work and I try to eat small meals and snacks. I want fast results!!!!

Make sure you are burning a good sweat each time, try increasing your pace on machine, and wear clothes that wil make you sweat.Dont eat when sun sets.

The Best Exercises To Lose Weighthttp://weightloss-tips-guide.blogspot.co��

On Yahoo!Answers I find certain questions being asked repeatedly which is simply a reflection of new people participating. A couple of common question amounts to How do I lose weight, or more specifically, How do I lose abdominal fat? I have gotten very positive responses from my answers when I paused to reply (and now beginning to get It works! emails that are very gratifying. I like helping people)... so have recently decided to put a good solid answer on my Yahoo!360 Blog (September 10) that I can point people to. These are my thoughts as a physician and athlete.Don t target losing more than about 2 lbs per week. If you try to lose faster, your body will go into starvation mode and get very stingy about burning calories while at the same time very efficient about storing any calories that you do provide. And it will make you feel awful. There is no site specific way of losing fat... the old myth about working your abs to burn belly fat isn t true. To get rid of love handles, you need to lose overall fat. That happens with exercise and watching your diet. More on that below. The most effective way to lose fat is aerobic exercise in the moderate fat-burning range, ideally first thing in the morning before you eat. When you wake your body is ready to burn fat and your levels of growth hormone are highest at that time. Later in the day it can take up to 30 minutes just to put your body into a fat-burning mode. Another overlooked way to burn fat is by lifting weights. Skeletal muscle has very high caloric needs... almost twice that of adipose (fat) tissue. Put on a little muscle and you will burn calories all day even at rest. Be aware that skeletal muscle weighs more, so with this approach you may see your weight increasing while your body fat is melting away. Not realizing this often stresses folks who think they should be losing weight as a measure of fitness. Forget the scale, look in the mirror and you will be happy.To lose a pound of fat, you need to eliminate about 3500 calories. You can do this by burning more with exercise or by modifying your diet to reduce intake. If you do a Google search on say, swimming calories you will quickly find a website with tables of calories burned for a given exercise. You can use such lists to estimate how many calories you are burning up with your routine.For diet, keep a diary for a couple of weeks counting calories, grams of protein, and grams of fat intake. It is easy with online sources of nutritional information (type the name of the food and calories into the Google search engine) and packaging labels. That will let you quickly figure out where the fat is coming from in your diet. Fat gives you 9 calories per gram. So take the number of grams of fat, multiply by 9, then calculate what percentage the fat calories are of your total daily calories. Restricting the calories from fat to about 20% of your total intake is ideal for a maintenance diet... that isn t overly restrictive. Of note, you need some fat in your diet. For instance, the body uses fat to produce hormones. Once you have a picture of how to modify your diet, you can drop the diary and just go back to it occasionally if you are wanting to tweek things further.There is a subset of questions that goes further and asks about How to get a six-pack? The answer is the same. Six-packs are 20% abdominal exercise and 80% diet. There is one caveat... abdominal muscles will form in the position that you work them, so be certain to pull them tightly toward your spine while doing crunches, etc. Also, during most lifting, the core is active which means that you should be stabilizing with contracted abs then too. Fail to do this and the abs will form, but bulging outward and the result is not attractive.If you are trying to build muscle as a way to lose fat, then you may need to increase total calories and specifically your protein intake. I target about 0.8 g of protein per pound of body weight each day when actively building. That is far more protein than most people need in their diets.Aloha

You didn t detail what you re eating. If they are healthy small meals and are spaced evenly throughout the day, you should lose weight quickly. Drink a lot of water. If your meals don t consist of high sugar or high fat options, it sounds like you have the winning formula.

low-carb diet just for 2 weeks, works everytime.

liposucktion

If you lose weight fast it will come back fast. You have to change your eating habits completely. And continue to exercises.Swimming is good for melting fat.

if you starve yourself, your body will shut down and conserve your fat. Eat, excerise, and sleep normally.

Yo Yo diets (south beach etc.) will help you lose weight fast but not keep it off. Try things to boost your metabolism like eating small meals and snacks more frequently, and also weight lifting to build muscle. One pound lost amounts to 3500 calories. Adding a low calorie diet will help. Losing about a pound a week is healthy. keep trying!!!!

The faster you lose weight, the faster you might gain it back. Keep doing what you re doing. Keep those portions small and stay away from sugars. Also stay away from carbs in the late afternoon/evening.

Eat low carbs and the weight comes off quickly

Don t eat as much as you brun. It IS that smiple
