How to lose weight as a guy!? -

I m a tennager and I need a diet specifically for guys. Every time my mom and i try a diet she loses weight and i dont. I think its because guys eat more food than women. Please help!!!

It has nothing to do with your sex. Weight gain and weight loss come down to a simple formula:(Calories eaten) - (calories spent) = weight gain.If the calories spent total is greater than the calories eaten, you have negative weight gain, which is weight LOSS. If you re gaining weight, you are eating more calories than you are spending, it s that simple. If you re not eating very much food then the problem is probably that you don t get exercise. In my opinion as a teenager you should not go much below like 2000-2500 calories per day. If that s got you fat, you need a lot more exercise.

Being a guy or a girl has nothing to do with anything.Guys eat more food, but they burn more calories due to them being heavier and having more muscle mass.Find your Basal Metabolic Rate. Simply Google it, and you ll find a page that will help you calculate your BMR. From thereon, it s simply a matter of counting your calorie intake, making sure that you consume less calories than you burn on a daily basis. Counting calories can be annoying and confusing at first, but once you get a hold of it, it becomes pretty simply. It s pretty crucial to count them, otherwise you simply don t know how much you are really consuming.There s so many false advertisement out there, that people tend to think that there s millions of ways to lose weight, when in fact, there s only one : Consume less calories than you burn.

dieting is simple, really! Just eat less, and exercise more! That s what I m doing, and it s working. The thing is, you REALLY have to eat less...I ve been eating small bowls of Goldfish crackers for dinner and a single packet of oatmeal for lunch...and then jogging like half an hour per day...gotta be committed man

Just try eating 2 subway subs a day for a month.

Having sex is actually a way to loose weight.

How to lose weight? -

I am a teenager that weighs 200lbs, and i eat healthy and exercise but nothing works.

Fresh fruit and whole gain breads will help you feel full longer. Forget the all carbs are bad idea, just lay off white bread/rolls, white rice and non-whole grain pasta. One thing that will help you lose weight is SNACKS! Yes, a piece of fruit or a (low sugar) yogurt or (low sugar) granola type bar mid morning and afternoon will help you not munch on chips and stuff. Don t skip breakfast.Increasing your water consumption would be good. Go for lean meats and remember that according to the dietitians a serving of meat is 4 ounces... about the side of a normal deck of playing cards. So watch your portions and fill up on fruits and vegetables.

I found this on this website. There are more tips and info.you need to find an exercise and eating (notice I didn t say DIET) plan that works for you; You also need to find a strenuous physical activity that you actually enjoy, it might just be walking. Pretty soon your friends will be asking you for advice!Good luck, you can do this!!More infomation the link: --http://www.loseweighthappy.info/index.php?option=com_content task=view id=200 Itemid=62

maybe you should try green tea or diet pills. i hope you lose weight! good luck!

I need some tips on how to lose weight? -

I am planning on joining weight watchers, but would like some tips on how to lose weight

WW along with an exercise plan will work for anyone. You just need to be dedicated. It was a little ruff for my wife at first, trying to keep track of all of the points that she ate daily. Now it is second nature. She lost 50 lbs pretty quick doing ww (6 mos) and has kept it off for 2 years now. She still keeps track of all he points, exercises everyday and goes to the WW meetings 1-2 times a month. It is now a way of life . Good luck!

Other celebrities include rapper Trina who did this liquid diet for 13 days and Howard Stern s cohost Robin Quivers claims to have lost 73 lb using the Master Cleanse. Similarly, Jared Leto says he lost the weight he gained to play Mark David Chapman (he gained 62 lb) all from the master cleanse!

How to lose weight within a three month period? -

i know....lay off the sweets,,,,excercise...and stuff . but i weigh a whopping 102 at age 14! Thats terrible!

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).

Your e being too hard on yourself. Use the BMI calculator attached to see what your range is. It all depends on your height/ weight ratio. For instance I am 5 7 and 150lb. In the normal range. It s too sad that many women in our society consider my weight heavy or fat ... But I ve learned to be comfortable with it and ignore all others.If you are 5 feet tall and 102 lb. You re perfectly NORMAL :)

If you are around average height, then 102 lbs then you re at a healthy weight. Muscle weighs more than fat per volume so if you exercise and workout extensively, don t be surprised if you have gained weight. Don t forget, you need some fat in your body to keep you healthy.

how tall are you??

How to lose weight being a veggan? -

I am a vegetarian, 27yrs old weigh 76 kgs. I walk for about 6 kms everyday. How can I lose weight?

If you are overweight on a vegetarian diet perhaps a vegan diet might help. This means no animal protein of any kind, not even dairy products, eggs or sea food.A pesco vegetarian consumes sea food, a lacto vegetarian consumes dairy products and an ovo vegetarian consumes eggs so if you were one of those then a vegan diet would probably help as very few vegans are overweight.Mixing animal protein with starchy carbohydrates such as bread, cereals, pasta, rice or potatoes can be fattening and such combinations are excluded by a vegan diet.The Atkins diet permits animal protein in large amounts but only in the absence of starchy carbohydrates.

1. Drink plenty of water. Our body needs a lot of water so give in to water. Water is not just way to flush out toxin but if you have more water in your body you will generally feel healthier and fitter. This it self will discourage any tendency to gorge. The best thing about water is that is has no calories at all.2. Start your day with a glass of water. As soon as you wake up, gulp down a glass of cool water. It��s a wonderful way to start you day and you only need a lesser quantity of your breakfast drink after that. A glass of water lets out all your digestive juices and sort of lubricates the insides of your body. You may have your morning cup of tea but have it after a glass of water. It is good for you.3. Drink a glass of water before you start the meal. Water naturally needs some space so that you feel fuller without actually having to stuff yourself.4. Have another glass of water while you are having the meal. Again this is another way of making yourself full so that you can actually rise from the table eating less but feeling full just the same. Instead of drinking it one gulp, take sips after each morsel. It will help the food to settle faster so that you get that feeling that you are full faster. SIDENOTE: Water is such a remarkable thing, but seldom do we give it the credit that it deserves. Did you know that over 66% of your body weight is nothing but water�� It��s amazing! Water also plays a vital role in weight control, which is why I donated so much space to it, above.5. Stay away from sweetened bottle drinks, especially sodas. Hey all those colas and fizzy drinks are sweetened with sugar and sugar means calories. The more you can cut out on these sweetened bottle drinks, the better for you. So if you must drink sodas, then stick to diet sodas.6. Include in your diet things that contain more water like tomatoes and watermelons. These things contain 90 to 95 % water so that there is nothing that you have to lose by feasting on them. They fill you up without adding to the pounds.7. Eat fresh fruit instead of drinking fruit juice. Juice is often sweetened but fresh fruits have natural sugars. When you eat fruit, you are taking in a lot of fiber, which is needed by the body, and fruits of course are an excellent source of vitamins.8. If you do have a craving for fruit juice then go for fresh fruit juice instead of these that contain artificial flavors and colors. Or even better, try making your own fruit juice taking care not to sweeten it with too many calories.9. Choose fresh fruit to processed fruits. Processed and canned fruits do not have as much fiber as fresh fruit and processed and canned fruits are nearly always sweetened.10. Increase your fiber intake. Like I mentioned, the body needs a lot of fiber. So try to include in your diet as many fruits and vegetables as you can.11. Go crazy on vegetables. Vegetables are your best bet when it comes to losing pounds. Nature has a terrific spread when it comes to choosing vegetables. And the leafy green vegetables are your best bet. Try to include a salad in you diet always.

There a a lot of ways to lose weight. I think the best way to lose weight is to exercise a bit more and eat healthier foods, like fruit veges and grains. No offense but i don t think that pills will work and drugs aren t good for your body anyways.hope tht helped you.xoxo

What are the biggest myths when it comes to how to lose weight? -

Ok, great question, there are so many out there, and it s really annoying when I find them constantly spread here:- Eating after 7 p.m. makes you gain weight , incorrect, the only correct recommendation is that you lower your carbohydrate intake at night-As long as you burn more calories than you consume you re good, wrong, the source of your calories has to be healthy, or it will slow fat-loss, and your general health will face consequences-Exercise is more important than nutrition, false, nutrition is far more important, exercise just speeds up the process-Carbohydrates need to be avoided as much as possible, incorrect, you need 5 grams of glucose per hour for your brain to function properly, and you can certainly lose weight with a carbohydrate intake by limiting it, but not so much that it s unhealthy-Lean Cuisine and Subway is healthy, wrong, they are highly processed, they are just healthy alternatives compared to foods that are even more unhealthy-The idea that starvation is effective at losing weight-That meat is responsible for obesity (it is mainly due to the high consumption of processed foods and lack of exercise)So many, if I think of more I ll list them.

I think one of the biggest myths that people fall into is that pills always work.Supplements other than whey protein generally have very low amounts of the compound in them (usually less than 1g). This is fine, studies in reliable journals have proven that these doses which are in fact high, accelerate fat loss or mass gain. However this may only be an extra 4lbs over 4 weeks. People generally assume that the pill is magic and works alone. This in fact is incorrect, usually on the bottle it will say to be used in conjunction with a blanced diet and exercise program. Also this research is performed under strict conditions, possibly with a program and nutrition plan devised by professionals. It could be done with a group of athletes with high metabolisms etc....I m not saying don t take these supplements because they are proven to work, but don t expect a huge change.I think the other myths have been covered by other people.

That people know what they re talking about, or that you will suddenly lose a lot of weight by purchasing some new book or piece of equipment. Just eat less/healthier and get outside and be active. Happiness can also have an effect. Depressed people tend to put on a little weight after a while, unless they become drug addicts or something.

to not eat. (stupid)to eat and then purge. (bulemia is deadly)to drink loads of water. (bloats/stupid)to only eat fruit and veggies. (lack of other nutrition)pills (addictive)

that cutting calories severely will make it happen fasterthat its ok to lose more than 3 lbs/weekthat fad diets workthat pills work

that starving yourself will work...you will lose weight, but at what price?that diet foods really help you lose weight...that s bogus

smoking ciggaretts.people always tried to tell me that when you smoke it helps you loose weight! nope thats a lie!

starving yourself

Keep eating!!

Do KAPALBHATI PRANAYAM AS suggested by baba Ramdev for 10 minutes daily

You don t always have to minimize your diet. Do eat some daily otherwise you will fall weak. There is one way I know which can help you to loose weight and also helps to develop the body. You select a circuit for running and make sure that it is long. Start running as fast as you can. You will get very tired after sometime but don t stop running. Keep running as fast as you can as long as you can. Best is if you run for about half an hour a day. Do this before sleeping and dinner and when you come back wait for a few minutes and take a bath with cold water. If you do this you will also get a good sleep at night ! This seems nuts but try this for a few days. The main reason for this is that when your energy gets utilized fast and you tend to run out of energy that is when your body starts releasing energy by burning the fat cells in your body. let me remind you that it is tough but not impossible and is also scientifically proven. If you are successful you will not only loose weight but also develop running stamina. It was very effective and I have learned this.

just increase your movements drink water especially on the morning before any thing do little exercises for 30 minutes and you can also read these article to help you at http://articles.onlineweblibrary.com/Art��http://articles.onlineweblibrary.com/Art��http://articles.onlineweblibrary.com/Art��and you can also watch this video at http://www.mytopclip.com/play.php?vid=14��and this too at http://www.mytopclip.com/play.php?vid=14��best wishes and don t desperate keep going

If you have a Wii Game Sytem, I suggest getting the Wii Fit. It works amazingly, and fast. Most people tell you that you should cut your diet, but this is not the way. I say eat when you are hungry, and only in small portions because it takes that part your brain a while to function. If you are still hungry, then eat, duh :) Do not give up, and splurge, I did this a while ago, and I gained 45 lbs! Not good! (I m 13 right now, jsyk.) If you are interested in something sweet try a bagel! I love bagels, and they fill you up better than a desert. I also agree with the answer from Kshitij Dhar! He is SO right! I lost a lot of weight doing this, and I am stronger than my 25 y.o. brother! If you need anymore help, contact me from my page! P.S. I love Twilight too!
