Can a quot;crash dietquot; be beneficial, or at least not unhealthy, if...? -

...after the desired weight is lost, one eases back into normal eating habits (that is to say, the amount of calories per day required to balance out the number burned) gradually? I know that crash diets (dramatically reducing food intake in order to lose weight quickly) are regarded as unhealthy, and from what I ve gathered, this is for two reasons: (1) You can t possibly get all of the nutrients your body requires on only 500-1000 calories per day. (2) Eating little slows down your metabolism; thus, when you start eating more again, you will rapidly gain the weight you lost back.Fact 1 can t be counteracted, but I would argue that the average person does not consume an ideal quantity of nutrients in the first place. What if the dieter, by watching his or her diet, actually *increases* his or her daily intake of vitamins, minerals, etc., even while consuming fewer calories than what he or she was previously used to, by choosing healthful meals and eliminating the empty calories that he or she previously gained from unhealthy meals?My main question is about fact 2. When researching how unhealthy fad diets were, the prevailing argument seemed to be, Once you start eating normally again, you ll gain all the weight back. But couldn t you avoid that by easing back into a healthy intake of calories (say, 1800/day whereas you were consuming 500-1000/day during your diet) gradually? Especially if you couple this with increasing exercise, it seems that you would actually *benefit* your metabolic rate in so doing. Does anyone have any evidence to the contrary, or any input at all?

First point can be addressed by taking vitamins etcSecond point - no there is no way around this, easing back you will still put on a disproportionate amount of fat, due to the loss in muscle, and decrease in metabolism. Also your body releases a hormone called leptin when you are effectively starving on a crash diet, and this makes your body suck up any fat you eat and store it more effectively.

If you know right diet info and method, diet is easy. If you are very serious, you need to have fast diet method that works for you. I recommend you my diet method for you. I lost 11 pounds in one month and it was very fast. You can do it too. You can get more info at this site http://bit.ly/W7xS2

the key is just don t do anything rapidly.... eat normal then eat little by little gradually... maintain this little meals (of course while exercising) until desired weight is gained... then start increasing your meal again to normal gradually...

I was referred to a program called Strip That Fat after I had my son, and I lost about 25 pounds in a month. The program promotes using normal food from your local grocery store, but it just tells you what to buy and when to eat it. It actually has you eat more throughout the day to speed up your metabolism. I had tried the South Beach Diet and Weight Watchers, but this has been my favorite program so far!! Below is a good article the bad effects of low carb diets and has referals to the site!http://www.squidoo.com/doesalowcarbdietreallywork

I had a really hard time losing weight after my 3rd child so I understand what you are feeling. I started taking a couple natural supplements and walking every day. Of course watching what you eat is important.

It not easy I did not use any, I used my own, its what you eat I have ready a story about someone who did that. You have to know what you are doing.

If you really want to lose weight you should take a look at my site. It has my suggested weight loss programs.http://www.squidoo.com/flabbytosexyGood Luck and Congrats on having a baby!

I am in this exercise program called Strollerfit. I get to workout with my baby! It is a work out group and a mommies support group. I really loved it.

I d recommend the Slim Habit. There s great support from Slimpals if you want it. No fierce diet regimes here...lose weight and lead a normal life!

Which diet pills actually work? -

I have been looking for a diet pill that actually works and could possibly help me lose weight quickly. I run everyday for at least 20 minutes, and I do ab exercises, along with going to the gym, and eating healthy. Nothing seems to be helping anymore and I still could lose almost 20 or 30 pounds. If anyone knows of something that is available in stores it would really help. I have ordered things offline before but won t do it again. I researched hydroxycut max, slimquick, and metabolife but I don t want to spend alot of money if I m not sure it will help.

http://www.advancedtrim.com worked good for me

Diet pills are mostly a psychological crutch. Most have some sort of stimulant. If you believe the hype, they might work a little while.Pick one and try it. If it doesn t work, try another one. That s why there are so many varieties on the market.If there was a really effective diet pill, we d all be popping it, be at ideal weight, and cruising somewhere else.Weight control is a matter of calorie limitation boosted with exercise. Sounds like to me you are still eating too much. Try calorie counting and limit your cal intake to no more than 1500/day. Great discipline.Good luck.Good luck.

Weight loss program?????? -

I was wondering if anyone knew a good video i could watch to get in shape and loose some weight and a good meal plan to go with it thx

If you want to get into the best shape of your life, I recommend p90x to you. I am on this exercise and diet plan right now, and so far it is working great. You can even go on youtube and look up p90x success stories of people that have gone through the program, and the results are fantastic! If you really want more information about this, I recommend going to the actual website. It is not a hoax, it is very real,and I am in the process of doing it right now. Also, my aunt is a coach for it, just to give you a little bit more trust in it. Hope this helps!

They have many weight loss tips,stomach fat loss tips,exercise, etc with search support for you to find best tips which i think may help you.They ll probably have what you re looking for there.so have a look:-

10 Minute Trainer with Tony Horton is the best, and it even comes with tons of eating plans that are perfect, I lost 15 pounds in a month!!

How can I lose weight quickly -

I ve had type 1 diabetes since I was 7 years old, now I m 17 so I know how to take care of myself and such. I m not overweight, but I want to lose a few because I am bigger than most of my friends...I exercise, I eat pretty healthy, and my blood sugar levels are good. Why can t I lose weight? Any suggestions?

If your at a healthy weight I dont know why you would want to lose more weight.If you must I have a few tips:1. Do more exercise in Sets Reps, you can do alot more that one istead of full on without breaks.2. Cut out all junk food to maximise your workout.3. Do it all in proportion, dont over do it or you ll burn out.

Go consult your doctors before anything especially since you have type 1 diabetes you dont want to put your health at risk. But honestly talk to your doctor im sure she or he will have plenty of suggestions and recommendations that will be safe to your health and wont affect negativelly your diabetes. Good luck and hope you get into you desired shape!

Run! Its the best way to lose weight the fastest and get into awsome shape. It uses a large majority of your muscles and keeps you in constatnt intense excerise. And you dont have to worry about eating habits, you will be hittting any fat deposits and breaking them down as you run so you ll be constantly breaking down what you eat if you run frequently. Try to stay off pavement its tough on your knees but running on tracks or grass like fields or parks is awsome. STAY OFF TREADMILLS. They do nothing for you and destroy your knees, you need to be on like a 6 incline going 8 to even come close to replicating real running. Thats all i got so, hope it helps and good luck

as soon as you wrote I want to lose a few because I am bigger than most of my friends i thought oh no...dont change yourself because of your friends, we are all different and you cant change that. if you exercise and eat healthy and have good blood sugar levels, that indicates that you are a physically healthy person. you dont need to lose weight because of our friends....tell me, if your friends all got their noses pierced, would you do that too??be an individual and strong...if you want to change then change for yourself and not for others...

do some yoga ; I ve lost lots of weight but remember it took you awhile to gain the weight and wont come off in a week.also do lots of cardio. try 30 mins in the morning and 45 after school. walking, biking, etc.eat lots of protein (meat, eggs, tofu)and veggies and limited bread. if you do eat bread make sure its whole wheat same with wraps. stay away from potatoes and for your veggies stick to outer ground things ( no beets, carrots, etc)drink nothing but water or tea.hope this helps!

Type one diabetes comes with a thing (forget the name) that makes that sometimes makes the body seem rounder than it is. It usually only happens in the stomach area and the limbs seem smaller because of it.I suggest you exercise more often. There is no quick way to lose weight.

strength training really is the answer. Muscle requires more calories (energy) to sustain its existence. Fat doesn t require energy it just sits there. The more muscle you have the more calories you will burn just moving around.

cough anorexia cough. jk. lol. do alot of cardio workouts. those help u loose weight. with a balanced diet of coarse. give it time.

Dont worry about your weight it does not matter how your friends or you look.

Try a little strength training

I just read a great E-book that can help you lose 10 pounds real quick! It s a free download from this site.

Raeyu is f*cking jack as*

u can go on weight watchers it totally works i do it and i have lost 30 pounds so far

Here is an best site which I have discovered hope it will help youhttp://online--weight--loss.blogspot.com��

How much weight do you have to lose to have excess skin? -

I m around 5 4 - 5 5 and weigh 170lbs and I m 18 years old. I ve just started a healthy weight loss program and my goal weight is around 110 - 120lbs, I m just wondering if I will likely have excess skin after that much weight loss??

You won t have any excess skin, that is a big misconception that alot of people have. Excess skin happens when someone gets lyposuction or any kind of surgery...like the lap band. They end up losing weight so fast that their skin doesn t have time to mold with their body.Now if you re on a healthy weight loss program and you are working out, your skin will have plenty of time to mold with your body and you won t end up with the excess skin. So that s a REALLY good thing! My sister lost 70 lbs healthy diet and excersise and 0 excess skin so I know from personal experience.
