How do I deal with my weight issue? -

I am a man 53 years old.I have a bad thyroid and take synthroid.I am on andro-gelI take 3 different meds for depressionI have a bad back and arthritic knees.I need advice on how to lose weight. Nothing works so far

gain muscle, it increases how many calories you need in the day, so you lose weight faster

You are doing great, you just need to give it time. Keep your motivation and do not focus on losing weight. Instead, focus on being healthy and improving your overall well-being. If too much focus is placed on the numbers on your scale, you will get nowhere. Please take this advice from experience--obsessing over your weight won t do anything besides make you more depressed and stressed. You need the right mindset for reaching optimum health. That is, focus on what feels good to you. If you have eaten something unhealthy, such as pizza or chocolate cake, in excess, you feel bloated, tired, and hopeless, no?After you eat an apple or run for and hour, however, you feel empowered. Yes, that is what you will be going for. Talk to your doctor about what exactly you can do in terms of exercise that will not cause you pain or cause you to injure yourself. I suggest (with your doctor s guidance) taking a strong pain reliever for your arthritis, as this will decrease your motivation if you are in severe pain. There s a machine call the Treadmaster , it looks like this, (http://www.exercise-equipment-review.com/images/bowflex_treadclimber.jpg), that you can find at most gyms. It is a runner s workout, but a walker s pace and very low impact for your knees. Swimming also is great (you can burn up to 600 calories an hour and reduce bloating). Also, you MUST weight train in order to build muscle, which will increase you metabolism and fat-burning power.I suggest NOT dieting because this will throw off the mindset that is so important when going for optimum health. Instead, think of it as changing your lifestyle, improving your well-being. That being said, you absolutely must eat correctly. Don t obsess over calories or fat content, although do take them into consideration. There are healthy fats out there, in avocados, salmon, and almonds. These are called amino acids, and they will contribute to fat loss around your stomach area. What has worked for me is completely going cold-turkey with sugar. No sugar--and no sugar substitutes. Yes, I eat fruit, but I don t drink diet soda, chew gum (which contains sugar alcohol and causes stomach fat). My cravings were completely gone after a month of this. If you don t have a sugar problem or you can eat in moderation, you don t have to do this, but if you eat a piece of candy, and can t stop, this will work for you. If not, eat a very small piece of 70-80% cacao dark chocolate, and you will have a healthy dessert.Eat more vegetables, as these will fill you up and keep you satisfied. Also, drinking at least 8 glasses of water is vital for digestive health. Try Fiber1 cereal. Only 1/2 cup has 57% of your daily value for fiber, also very important for reducing bloating and improving digestive health. Work with a nutritionist if you have to and possibly a trainer, since you do have a drawback with your thyroid condition. Protein supplements will benefit you greatly if you are working out intensively several times a week (don t forget: you must do resistance training! And try interval training with your cardio--your heart and your belly will thank you...).Best of luck to you... and remember... we all have drawbacks, but anyone can be fit and anyone can have a great body... you just need to have the right mindset. I m a teenaged girl living in the US, surrounded by media and TV, and magazines, but my mindset keeps me focused. I feel and look great, and you will too, in time. DO NOT give up. Keep focused on your health and remember that you will get there. GOOD LUCK!

What workouts should i do to lose weight fast, before summers over? -

i dont even own a scale lolbut im betting since early june ive gained 7 pounds?and i want to lose it and get abs and slim thighs!

start doing an hour of cardio per day. if you have access to an elliptical machine, they calculate exactly how many calories you burn. only eat when you re hungry. try to stock up on whole grains, vegetables, fruit and a small amount of dairy items (fat free skim milk, egg whites). stick to the exercise and eating plan and you should see results within 6 weeks!

ohhh so now that summers over its time to get slim thighs and abs ....its not gonna happen over night just like the whole summer of putting in on didn t but if you want fast results...running with sweats on drink plenty of water and stay away from processed foods like chips and cookies in bags..natural...no soda or extra sugar for no reason

I m the same way right now, trying to lose some weight. You should definitely avoid sweets. I know its hard to leave the good yummy stuff. My cousin lost like 30 pounds in a month (according to her supposedly but she did lose alot of weight) she was going to the gym everyday, she did exercise 2 hours a day. She ate salad or plain lettuce with lemon for dinner each day. Reduce eating meat each day try eating it once or only twice a week. Don t skip your 3 meals, thats very important.

Eat less junk food, less processed carbs, and do lots of cardio.Here s a site with more info:

How did you lose weight fast? -

I ve heard those diet pills suppress your appetite and give you more energy for exercise. I m really lazy and it I think it would help a lot; even know It s not the healthiest thing. I would like to loose between 20 40 pounds asap. How have you lost weight fast what experiences have you had with dexatrim/ other diet pills?

I have been through it all and know what s it about. The main thing is to stick in there. You can t be an addict to food and never exercise if you want to live a healthy life and keep the weight off. I ve worked out, done every diet, and all types of classes. Nothing works, besides dedication and intelligence towards the subject of losing weight. First, depending on how much weight you need to lose, your diet is the first concern. You can t eat 10,000 calories a day and expect the weight to come off, even if you are exercising a lot. Which brings us to the next thing. Duh, Exercising...This is a must especially if you need to a lot of weight. Get at least 30 mins of some good hardcore exercising. Do some cardio, in the long run, it s good for the heart.However, I find the most hardest part of losing weight/keeping it off, in my diet. It s so hard to keep your fingers out of the cookie jar or those chocolate goodies. I ve found a great addition to help any one out, it s a natural weight loss supplement called Proactol. Now don t get all crazy on me and say diet pills don t work. That is true, but not in this case. This one isn t meant to burn pounds while you sit on the couch. It s an appetite suppressant, along with being a fat binder. I saved money on the pills at theweightlossplace.com along with getting some good info. It basically makes those fingers not go towards the cookie jar. For me it s the best pill I ve tried and I ve tried cupboards full. Now this doesn t mean you have to follow my foot steps but I ve successfully lost roughly 70 pounds and keeping it off til this day. Well good luck and remember what I said, Dedicate.

You will lose weight faster if you atleast go for a 15-30 minute walk every morning or night, whenever suits you.. If you realy can t exersise and your that lazy to eat healthy and do that then the only other thing is to water fast for a couple of weeks you can shed 20pounds but Its hard because after you lose the weight its so easy to gain it back witch means you have to eat nothing but tiny amounts of vegetables or juices fruits for about a week after the fast and then gradually eat small portions and you will continue to lose weight otherwise if you go back to your old eating habits your going to gain it back. Water fasting is for detoxification and after that you will have more energy and probably feel less lazy as the toxins are releasing your body and you may even want to start being active after the water fast... but carefull don t break the fast or your going to regret all the sacrafise. too much too handle? then work out even if its a 10 minute walk or cleaning the house anything that gets your *** off the couch will make you lose weight. Eat sensible vegetables fruit legumes dairy daily and fish or chicken weekly and red meat only once a month as that is realy hard to digest and not good if your trying to lose weight.have fun with it. drink plenty of water to flush toxins out of the body, feel good and look good.

It is feasible to lose weight quickly but you should be realistic and take on board that if you lose weight quickly then you will almost certainly put it all back on again just as quickly. The one thing that really delivered for me is wu-yi tea, it can be seen in the resource box below, they have a small number of free trials in stock, it has been reported in Fox News and USA Today. I shed twenty five pounds, it really does produce success!

Well right now I m 120 pounds but 5 1 and a couple months ago I lost 10 pounds in a week so I could be 110 pounds but that was from starving myself and doing nothing all day.... But I would not reccomend that because when I started to eat again I gained back the weight and more. But if u cut calories in half and run on the tredmill an hour each day it is definately a healthier way to lose weight

try this method I call it satisfying the monster method one meal every day of what ever u like maybe it is not a healthy way but it worked for me but don t mix so much food in this meal if u want burger u just eat burger with water no frize no pepsi with time your mental control will become stronger good luck

i love diet pill Crevax, i have loss weight in the past 3 weeks and i love my energy level though i don t have to follow any exercise plan or starve myself.

How do you lose weight fast? -

I am 5 foot and I weigh 143 pounds and i am gonna try to get down to 115 pounds. What would be the easiest diet and how much should I work out a day and also how long will it take for me to reach my goal once i start my diet? How long did it take you!?

do cardio exercise, yoga, pilates its great to burn fat and it will tone ur body as well, Dancing can be one of the ways of a work out and you may not even get bored of it.Physical exercise is important for maintaining physical fitness and can contribute positively to maintaining a healthy weight, building and maintaining healthy bone density, muscle strength, and joint mobility, promoting physiological well-being, reducing surgical risks, and strengthening the immune system. Just because you re getting healthy doesn t mean you can t snack. In fact, eating small meals and snacks throughout the day, or grazing, has been shown to aid weight loss, (compared to eating three large meals a day), by keeping metabolism steadier. Pick snacks that are low in calories and fat and high in fiber (dried apricots, nuts, rice cakes, fruits, baby carrots, cherry tomatoes, and so on). Vegetables are generally very low in calories, very high in fiber, and full of flavor and nutrition. Generally, you want to - with a combination of calorie reduction and increased activity - reduce and burn a certain number of calories a day, causing a net loss of calories so your body is forced to use its own stores of fat.

How do I lose weight fast I tried doing everything Diet,exercise,medicines everything but i am still fat? -

i am fat!!

sit and watch tv and move your eyes around

send me mail in personor come to clinic business secreates can not be told in openi will have to examine you.

That depends. You could be fat. You could even be obese. No one can tell unless you put a weight.

consult an endocrinologist

Losing weight fast will never help, at the beginning it will but you can also gain it back double.I have done almost everything not eating properly, exercise and also diet pills.Losing weight is a process that needed to be done in a correct manner and right condition.Consult a doctor or better yet have a good discipline.Since March i have been watching what i eat i was 180 then but now i am 155It s a slow process but you ll be happy with the result.

what medicines???? maybe you have some insulin resistance.....i have polycystic ovaries which can cause insulin resistant and before i got on a certain med i could lose barely any weight w/eating super healthy, exercising 5 days a week 2 hours a day.......once i got on my med, glucophage, i lost 30 pounds with pretty much no effort....i had given up on healthy diet and exercise.......so im sure when i start running again in the summer ill lose anymore.....its way cold and icy so im not about to go running right now.......i hate gyms, i get so bored i swear it makes me wanna cry....

Maybe you have a medical condition and should see a DR about this

Your question shows your problem. You are trying to lose weight fast. Diets don t work. Your metabolism slows and you gain the weight back.Losing weight fast doesn t work. You will lose muscle, which will lower your metabolism and make it hard to keep the weight off. It s better to lose 2 to 3 pounds a week. You need to do strength training to keep the muscle. You need to do some cardio to burn the fat and you need to eat well to keep the muscle. Tom Venuto has a great e-book on exactly how to do this. It worked for me.

My guess is that you really did not try. I mean c mon. Did you try everything. How about eating less and moving more. For more than a couple of days.

I need advice on how to lose weight fast without pills...? -

i weigh about 196lbs. and i want to weigh at least 160. How can I loose 36 lbs in about 3 months? or at least something close to it...no pills please...thanks!!

We shall not feel any difficulties in our heart to lose weight. In my experience, the most comfortable, efficient and safest way to lose our weight is walking for a long distance. I lost 2kg/ week. It surely works!Anyway, you can also try balanced diet from www.eexcel.com to keet fit. I lost 1.5 kg/week with that!In additions, you shall eat more vegetables and fruits to reduce junk food, oily foods and fat meats, etc if necessary. It makes your skin shinny and clean too! Try to find interesting works and games to reduce your excessive appetite (if any). Good luck.

Juice/water fasting. It s really hard if you don t have support of your friends/family, but it helps with a load of health issues. Start eating healthy, raw fruits/veggies are great. After a couple weeks of eating a lot of raw foods and not much additives and chemicals, try fasting for 24 hours. Then continue to eat healthy for a couple days, maybe a week depending on your body. Then, if you made it the 24 hours, try for 2-3 days. Don t go more than 5 days without talking to your doctor first, but a good 3-5 day fast does amazing things for your will power and digestive system. A lot of doctors will recommend fasting a couple days at the change of each season. I ve been doing it since I was younger and it d done amazing thing for me, not to mention the weight loss advantage!P.S. Here s a couple of the more informative site on everything you could want to know about fasting...

How to lose weight?Daily Exercise and Proper Diet.1. Set small, realistic goals. If you have a lot of weight to lose, try for 5 pounds, relax a bit and then go for 5 more.2. Start a regular exercise program and stick with it.3. Sneak in extra exercise in addition to your regular program.

Determine your favorite snack time and be sure to have plenty of healthful options available when you get hungry.9. Keep a food diary. This will help you pinpoint where you can improve your diet..............hope i helped :)

This worked for me about 2 years ago.. I lost 37 pounds in a little less than 3 months.Breakfast: Bowl of Oatmeal (made with water) and a fruitSnack: Rice cakes, but the ones that are flavored (really not bad)Lunch: Tuna and crackers or a wrap from SubwayDinner: Anything grilled - Chicken was the best. Don t put marinades on them though - try basting or soaking in NO fat Italian Dressing. Put some wheat noodles on the side or a sweet potato or frozen veggies.Wheat is good for you and high in Fiber. With all of this, I walked/ran on my treadmill each night for 45 minutes (sometimes 30). I would also do a few situps on my weight bench or leg lifts to slow down from my run. As you get going, you ll find other foods that are good for you, but that s a good start. Good luck - you CAN and WILL do it!!!!

To start, start cutting out certain sugary foods, such as; soda, chips, cookies. Their okay every once in a while, but not every day or anything. Cutting out those things make an impact on weight, and lowers craving.Eating healthy foods is very important. Eat more meat/protein and veggies. (The bright, colorful foods are the best for you) But moderate how much you eat.Exercise is another main thing to focus on. You could eat anything you wanted, as long as you burned more calories than you ate.But best exercises are like, starting out with a jog, then coming home and doing things like; sit ups, crunches, and squats. Do that on a daily basis and your sure to drop weight fast.

dont set ur goal to that just make sure u lose weight...change ur diet and exercise more often eat frequent meals but very small and drinks lots of water and do cardio (running, hiking, cycling, dancing) dont eat carbs at nighteat less sugardecrease the amount of sodium (salt) becasue it makes u retain waterif u have eggs have the egg beaters onehave milk that is skim free of 1% or 2% fat not the whole one or light yogurteat lean meats chicken or fishdont limit with vegetables and some fruits (avoid juices cuz they contain more sugar) have the fruit instead cuz it has more fiber which is good for u the cheeses u eat have to have 2% fatavoid bacon, sausage and stuff that are very fatty if u want to have some drinks to not get bored of water make sure they have no sugar and very lil or no calories (10 calories or less) diet arizona green tea, diet crystal lights those thingseat very small portions dont over do it

Just run everyday. If you can run a mile a day, that would be about 90 miles in three months. Maybe you could also go swim, if you like swimming, don t worry, you will see yourself loosing weight.

Excersise real hard and calorie count. I think 1200 calories a day would be enough

Wel, some diets that are really good are chicken and steemed vegggies

Do not eat.Cut your skin off.
