How to lose weight after giving birth, I gave birth about 6 months ago and I am continue to gain weight? -

breastfeeding helps burn calories...you may also consider weight watchers and/or hiring a trainer...

Here are some techniques to help you lose post-pregnancy weight.1. Drink at least 10-12 glasses of water every day. Replace your high sugar beverages such as sodas and juices with some water and a squeeze of fresh lemon. You could also try flavored seltzer water which has no calories. You can cut out hundreds of calories a day this way.2. Keep healthy snacks handy such as raisins, popcorn, wheat crackers, and nuts. Refuse to buy store-bought baked goods or junk food.3. Eat lean meats such as boneless chicken and the leanest cuts of beef.4. Eat whole grains (breads, cereals, pastas) instead of the white versions5. Don t be fooled by foods that are labeled as nonfat. Some are loaded with calories and can have hydrogenated vegetable oils and/or high fructose corn syrup, neither of which are healthy. Read your labels!6. Resist the urge to indulge in a fast food meal. Or if you do, order the salad and not the fat-filled burgers and fries.7. As soon as you feel ready, start light exercise. Weather-permitting, take a 10 minute walk with the baby every day and slowly increase your time to 20 minutes per day. Babies can be worn in a snugli or sling or you can use a baby jogger or stroller when they get too heavy. Even better, walk at a regular time with a friend.8. Find easy ways to increase your exercise like parking farther away or using stairs instead of elevators.9. Breastfeeding uses up your fat stores! Breastfeeding burns about 500 calories per day so the longer you breastfeed, the more calories you burn.10. Consider joining a gym and trade babysitting hours with a friend so when you each go to do your workout, the other can watch the babies. Some gyms may offer babysitting services as well.Just remember it took 9 months to gain the weight; give yourself at least that long to take it off. I am not a fan of completely avoiding or drastically reducing food groups such as the popular diets of limiting carbs or sugars. I believe the more you deprive yourself of an occasional treat, the more you will crave it.

I suggest you do nutri system it worked for me.You can eat there food is good! and.gradually take yourself off it..and eat healthy again..and reward yourself with spa or shopping..I did it for 1yr I was 188 in Oct 2003Now Nov 2007 and a healthy 120lbs..It took me 1 yr after that to workout and eat good..to maintain the stable weight!!Do yoga or things you enjoy doing..Even cleaning your house burns calories..Here are a few web sites that can help you on your way to a new you lol-I do salsa dancing workouts,belly dancing and strip dancing...They all work the whole body so no RUNNING for me..Here provided the links..I think you should try it out..Is fun way to get in shape..I really would love to keep and in touch to see if you lost the weight the right way!!IsabelGood luck and be consistent do not give up!

How to lose weight off my hips? -

My stomach has a little bit of fat, but not as much as my hips...My hips are like huge!!! What can i do to lose all that fat without taking diet pills and starving myself?

Side Lying Hip RaisesArea toned: HipsProcedure: Lie down on the mat on your left, legs outstretched. Keep your head within your hands and bend the left leg. Lift the right leg about 8-12 inches off the ground, without bending the knee. Now lower it slowly. Repeat this 15-20 times and then switch the sides and continue.To increase intensity: Tie weight cuffs around the ankles. Use 1 lb initially and then slowly increase the weight to finally reach 5 lb within the span of 4-6 weeks. You can also raise the leg and make 10 large circles in the air in clockwise direction. Repeat the same process in the anticlockwise direction.http://www.askaquery.com/question/How-to-Tone-Hips.html

You have to come up with some type of a reward system, this will help keep you motivated. One of the best things to do is make a contingency contract. Stating what you want to do, who will help you do it, and what do you get for doing it. Then also try to find a well balance diet program. My friend did this one diet program where the average weight lose is 7 pounds in 9 days. It might be the thing you are looking for, I know it s well balanced. If you want e-mail me and I can tell you more about either of these.

Well, if the bone structure of your hips are large, there is nothing you can do. Also, there is no such thing as spot reducing unless you consider surgery. You can t lose weight on one area, you have to do cardio exercises and eat healthy for a proportioned body tone.Many people ask how to lose weight in one area, but it can t be done. If you don t believe me, ask a trainer at the gym or a nutritionist.

Change your carb to protein ratio. You want to increase the amount of protein you eat. Plan 5 200-300 kcal meals per day. It will increase your metabolism. This is what I eat:1: 1/2 grapefruit and 2 oz chicken 2. apple w/ peanut butter3. 2 oz chicken / 1 cup salad / 1 avacado (full of good fat)4. varies5. 2oz meat / sweat potato / steamed broccoli eat what you like / like what you eat.

Any tips on how to lose Weight fast? -

I want to lose 8 pounds by christmas. Any tips? (Best answer=10 pts!)

Fast weight loss never works. It just sets you up for rebound weight gain. This is the last thing you would want to do. Take up a regiment of a sensible healthy diet with exercise. Target to lose 1 to 2 pounds a week and after 52 weeks, you can lose up to 40 pounds. I have seen many people who look for quick weight loss and after 52 weeks are back to where they were with their weight going up and down. It just never works. Here is an interesting article about quick weight loss if you are interested to find out more;http://correct-weight-loss.net/2009/08/0��Here is another article about how fast you want to lose your weight;http://correct-weight-loss.net/2009/01/3��If you are indeed interested in losing weight correctly so that the weight loss is healthy and sustainable, please refer to this article;http://correct-weight-loss.net/2009/04/0��Hope the information was useful

Reward yourselfIf you have set yourself some specific goals, for example, to have regular meals, or lose 3lbs in 2 weeks or eat your 5 a day, reward yourself when you have achieved it for example, with a new CD, seeing a movie, a new hairstyle, or outfit. It will also help to plan a big reward for when you have achieved your longer term weight goal. You will definitely deserve it.

More good reasons to be activeRegular physical activity, especially if you include some strength training, not only burns calories and boosts mood and energy levels but can build muscle. Muscle burns loads more calories than body fat, and just a 3 pound increase in the amount of muscle in your body can potentially burn enough extra calories to lose an extra 10lbs over a year.

Step 10,000Aim to walk briskly for a total of 45 minutes each day to burn around 2000 calories a week (250 to 300 calories a day). Or buy a pedometer from a sports�� shop or via the internet and build up to doing 10,000, then if you can 15,000 steps �C over the day. Research now shows that this level of daily activity is most effective for weight control.

If you know correct diet information and way, diet is easy. If you are very serious, you must have easy diet way that works for you. I highly recommend you my diet way for you. I lost 10 pounds in 30 days and it was very easy. You can do it too. You can get more information at link below.

I found this great website for losing weight a while back and bookmarked it. They offer free trials of Rachel Ray products that make you lose weight fast like she did. Me and a friend are now trying it out now. http://myrachaelraydietblog.com/?t202id=��

Order your dressing on the side and then stick a fork in it -- not your salad. The small amount of dressing that clings to the tines of the fork are plenty for the forkful of salad you then pick up.

You should try Pure Acai Berry..it will help you to not only reduce weight quickly but will also make you feel energetic and refreshed. for more info check out - http://www.healthylifeforall.com/pureacaiberry.html

How to lose weight if your a vegieterian?????? -

my mom worried shes over weight and she want to lose weight can you tell me how

I did not know that vegetarians could be over weight too. anyway, tell your mom to take two table spoons apple ccider venigar before each meal. that will block the weight, then she can work on losing the extra that she has. she should walk for at least half an hour each day

being a V doesn t necessarily mean that she ll lose weight, maybe she will it all depends on her body. Since V do not eat meat then she may eat way too much carbs. Tell her to be carefulI wish her luck

excersize
