I want to join weight watchers to lose 20 lbs but my husband says its only a way to learn how to cheat? -

He also says its a waste of money. How do I convince him I want to try it and just to support me with it. With two small kids, a full time job and going to school I cant do the typical weight loss program. and no well just get off you butt remarks either

Honestly, if he has that little trust in you that he would make that comment... it s going to be near impossible to convince him of anything.Just tell him you re going on the diet- you love him and the children and would never cheat on him- tell him he s silly and worries to much- and that you want to improve your health. You ve earned it for yourself, with all your hard work.Then jokingly comment it probably won t work as well as it says anyway- and if it does - he s going to have a thinner, sexier woman in bed ;).

Weight watchers is the only thing that worked for me. Everyone is different and it may not work for anyone else but I lost about 60 pounds in just 4 months. Its not teaching you to cheat, it teaches you to eat. There is a point system and you have to stay in your range for the day for your wieght and you hae to figure the points for everything you eat. Some people don t like that, I didn t but you get used to it. Eventually I kinda just knew what the points would be, at least a good enough estimate. You go every week and it can be costly but it is worth it. You are suposed to contine going i think once a month or something once you reach your goal just to be sure you stay on track but as soon as I hit my goal I stopped going. I have kept the weight off so I would suggest trying it.

Hi This plan worked for me so here goes,If you are serious about losing weight, the calories in the food you eat should be less than the energy you use. You will have to increase your metabolic rate now, and plan your diet carefully.Formulate your own weight loss plan and you will lose weight faster. More details available at http://tinyurl.com/m7ckxGood luck

Try Weight Watchers online. You can chose the CORE program which allows you to eat lean meats, fruits and veggies and other wholesome foods, although you are allowed the occassional cheat foods.The online version is great for busy people and CORE teaches you how to truly eat healther.BTW - The online version is cheaper than going to the weekly meetings and you weigh yourself at home.

Honestly, I wouldn t waste your time or money going either. If you want to lose weight, you can still do it without that. Eat smaller portions and keep your calories anything under what you eat normally. Exercise a bit, and there you have it. I have lost 56 lbs in the past year by those simple habits. You can do it. Good luck.

I don t think it s cheating at all. If it helps you lose weight and keep it off, it s just as valid as any other wight loss program. I say go for it!

I ve known a lot of people who have lost weight on weight watchers and kept it off. If you re concerned about money, I have noticed people selling their weight watchers books/pamphlets on eBay. That s all you really need, especially if you don t have time to attend the meetings and weigh-ins.

Weight loss tips for a 7 month year old kitten any ideas? -

Hello i have a young little kitten and unfortunately he is a little bit overweight. He is a black and white domestic short hair (DSH) and he weighs 5.6kg. He was born January 10th this year so he will be 8 months soon. I need weight loss tips because I don t want him to be fat any tips? please?

a 7 month year old kitten?i lol d

dam thats a big cat for 8mnths. i would suggest feeding him a good quality weight control kibble food like science diet (despite what some may tell you, vets do not recieve any bonus for recommending/selling this product). they have instructions on the bag of what to feed your cat each day depending on its size so that it will lose weight. i would suggest splitting this amount into two meals - morning and night. once he is down to his healthy weight you can follow the instructions on the bag for maintaining his weight. he would also benefit from 2 intense play sessions with you everyday. buy or make him some new toys and rotate the ones u leave out for him so they keep his interest. a good game is to tie some feathers or ribbons one the end of a shoe lace and run around making him chase it. playing with him will also strengthen the bond between you. good luck!*i have fed my 3 cats science diet since they were kittens (oldest is 8 now) and have been very satisfied with how healthy my cats are for it. the only times they have been to the vet are for neutering and to get their shots. this is not because i couldnt afford it etc, its because they simply have not been sick! before these 3 i had a cat who i fed tinned food and supermarket kibble. she became diabetic at 6 years old and died at 7. i think its worth spending a bit extra for this fact.

At 7 months he should be still playing a lot, don t just look at his diet, but also encourage him to play active games, chasing balls etc. Good for you for trying to sort this before it gets out of control.

do not feed him kitten food! Its used to fatten them up. Change to a better cat food.

Feed proper food for the species Nutrition since there are so many bad things out there is very important to your cat��s healthContrary to what you may have heard; dry foods are not a great thing to feed a cat. Please read the label on what you are feeding? What are the ingredients? Do you know what they mean? Is the first ingredient a muscle meat like chicken or meal or other things?http://www.catinfo.org/#Learn_How_To_Rea��http://iml.jou.ufl.edu/projects/Spring04��Dry foods are the number 1 cause of diabetes in cats as well as being a huge contributing factor to kidney disease, obesity, crystals, u.t.i��s, constipation, and a host of other problems. Male cats are especially prone to blockagesfrom dry food. Food allergies are very common when feeding dry foods. Rashes, scabs behind the tail and on the chin are all symptoms The problems associated with Dry food is that they are loaded with grains and carbohydrates which many cats (carnivores) cannot process. ( Have a fat cat?)Also, Most of the moisture a cat needs is suppose to be in the food but in Dry, 95% of it is zapped out of dry foods in the processing. Another thing, most use horrible ingredients and don t use a muscle meat as the primary ingredient and use vegetable based protein versus animal. Not good for an animal that has to eat meat to survive.http://www.catinfo.org/#My_Cat_is_Doing_��You want to pick a canned food w/o gravy (gravy=carbs) that uses a muscle meat as the first ingredient and doesn t have corn at least in the first 3 ingredients if at all. THE BEST CAT FOODS CONTAIN NO GRAINS NO BYPRODUCTS Cats are meat eaters not cereal or rice eaters Fancy feast is a middle grade food with 9lives, friskies whiskas lower grade canned and wellness and merrick upper grade human quality foods. I would rather feed a middle grade canned food then the top of the line dry food. Also, dry food is not proven to be better for teeth. Does a hard pretzel clean your teeth or do pieces of it get stuck? http://www.felinefuture.com/nutrition/bp�� Please read about cat nutrition.http://www.catinfo.org/ http://www.catinfo.org/feline_obesity.ht�� http://maxshouse.com/feline_nutrition.ht�� Vetinarian diets The reason your vet thinks so highly of the pet food they sell probably has more to do with money than nutrition. In vet school, the only classes offered on nutrition usually last a few weeks, and are taught by representatives from the pet food companies. Vet students may also receive free food for their own dogs and cats at home. They could get an Iams notebook, a Purina purse and some free pizza. http://iml.jou.ufl.edu/projects/Spring04��Nutritional Education Program website page for the American College of Veterinary Nutrition. Notice who they are receiving grants from for this program http://mypetcarnivore.com/educational_gr��

After my girlfriend had a baby she tried all types of workouts but the two that worked best for her were her boxing classes and the stripper pole aerobics. I paid for her to go a boxing trainer and I bought her a pole from www.LasVegasStripperPoles.com and she looks the way she did before the baby.

What should I do to have a healthy weight loss? -

I eat little but when I eat i EAT. Like i will have one potpie and somee ice cream and a salad but that is al I eat in one day. I want to start dieting because I was on chemo and was losing weight so I ate whatever I want. I got so used to it that now when it ended i cant give up the foods i would eat all the time. I always gain weight in my stomach only. I did exercise when i tried to lose weight at a different time but it was no help. What are some suggestions?I am planing on trying to focus on more natural foods i.e. fruit, vegetables, orange juice for drinks, salad, meat and less bread and processed foods. I am willing to give up a lot of junk food, I never eat fast food, but i will give up like donuts cakes and cookies, I dont like them much anyway. But i dont know if i can give up ice cream.

Best thing I ever tried was the clean eating diet, it is very straight forward and basically follows one main rule: If its processed don t eat it. Follow this diet with exercise and your set.http://www.eatcleandiet.com/

I was also looking to loose my weight very fast and after tried and testing many products i finally got http://www.loose-your-weight.apooz.com which helped me a lot in reducing my weight.

You definitely should not starve yourself while on a diet because you will only be slowing down your metabolism. You need to eat at least 1200 calories per day.I��ve been on this diet now and I have lost 17 pounds in less than a month. Basically I have been following The Biggest Loser Diet and it has been amazing. I have realized that now I can eat more [quantity wise] of healthy foods than I could of processed, junkie foods. Now I am almost never as hungry as I once was. First, I started cutting out all sodas, sugary soft drinks, and juices and instead I started drinking anywhere between 64-80 ounces of water each and every day. Drinking your water ice cold helps you to not give in to your cravings. Instead of snacking on junk foods try snacking on fruits and vegetables. Fruits can take the place of sweets that you would have been craving before. You should also make sure to watch your portion size because you could be eating the right foods but just too much of it. A great weigh to burn calories quick and get in shape is to do some sort of cardio activity for at least 30 minutes everyday. Personally I would recommend 45 minutes to 1 hour of cardio per day. Another great way to lose weight that will also help you tone up is to start a strength training program. Essentially you should be following through with your strength training program 3-4 days per week. Here��s an example of what I eat every day;Breakfast: 1 cup of cream of wheat [you can spice it up with bananas, fruits, spices, etc.]Snack: 1 cup of grapesLunch: Half of a ham/turkey [protein] sandwich on whole-wheat breadCarrots with a tiny bit of ranch dressing to dip it in. 1 cup CantaloupeSnack: ? cup cottage cheese with mandarin oranges Dinner: Chicken fajitas on Whole-Wheat tortillas Dessert: Low-calorie ice-cream bars such as the ��Skinny Cow�� brand ice cream bars. Hope this helps you (:

I was very much bulky but i lost a lot weight easily by using http://www.loose-your-weight.apooz.com

Am i wasting my time with this work out program? -

i started a new work out routine this week, i walk 3 to 5 miles daily and then follow the 17 get toned- arms and chest routine from the july issue of 17. my goal is to lose 50 pounds by the end of the summer, i m also starting a new weight loss program too,i weight 160 right now, so am i wasting my time?

A workout program is definitely not a waste of time. 50 pounds is kind of a lot of weight to lose... getting in a lot of exercise is a great thing though and you should probably see noticeable results within a week or two.
