How can a 16 yr. old lose weight fast? -

ok. i am 16 cant take pills or nothing like that. i really want to lose weight and look good. I have been running like a mile three times a week and i havent seen and progress. Do i need run some more? i think i eat about 1500 a day. what should i do?p.s. i dont have money to be going to the gym.

Exercise is important, but what you re eating is even more important. 1500 calories eating lots of veggies and low sugar is a much better diet, than 1500 calories of high sugar, high fat foods. One can of soda takes 20 minutes of full speed jogging to burn.

Seek out alternatives to the unhealthy foods you ve identified. You can simply reduce the amount of soda you drink or mayonnaise you put on your sandwiches, or you can substitute healthier choices. Drink water instead of soda, for example, or use mustard instead of mayo. Low-fat and low-calorie options are also available for most foods, and many of these are natural, (although some are made with strange chemicals), and tasty. Start trying to eat healthy in most meals:Choose lean meats. Chicken and fish are both very low in fat (and certain fish like salmon, sardines, and fresh tuna are an excellent source of antioxidants, which are also beneficial to your health), so aim to replace some or all of the beef or pork in your diet with these foods. Replace high-calorie side dishes with healthier alternatives. Many people get a ton of calories from side dishes such as macaroni and cheese, French fries, or potato salad. You can eat healthier and lose weight by replacing these with fresh vegetables and salads. Pre-made salads are practically effortless, and when accompanied by a reduced-calorie dressing or no dressing at all, they re weight-loss gold. Start your days off right. A fattening breakfast of bacon and eggs or a pastry can be replaced with yogurt, oatmeal, high-fiber, low-sugar cereals; or fresh fruit for fruit smoothies. However, for those on a low carb diet bacon and eggs are a great combo for breakfast, since neither have carbs. But don t fall into the trap of skipping breakfast. Eating a healthy breakfast increases your rest metabolic rate earlier in the day, and reduces snacking before lunch.

you should eat at least 4-5 meals a day.drink lots of water, and eat regularly. don t starve yourself, because once you start eating again, you ll gain everything back, trust me.eat lots of fruits and veggies, and if you eat bread, make sure it s whole grain. white bread is pretty fattening. you can also eat lean meats, like fish, turkey and chicken breast. eggs also help when trying to lose weight.skip out on sweets, candy, sugary foods, chips, ice cream, cake, and cookies.if you feel hungry, but don t want to over eat, chew gum. it ll keep your mouth busy and it tricks yourself into thinking your eating.cut out ALL soda! if you stop drinking soda, it helps you out a lot!and don t forget to exercise!try walking, jogging, jump rope, dancing, crunches, bike riding and swimming. try exercising for 45-80 minutes a day.good luck!

Ok, a lot of these people definitely don t know what they re talking about. If you re eating nutritiously, then you just need to run more. 3 miles per week is like nothing. You could lose more calories in a week by having better posture than by running only three miles. You ll have to run a lot more than three miles. Keep in mind that diets don t work. They never have and they never will. Try a mile to two miles a day. Run or walk. Either way, good luck.

Hi,Depending on your weight, 60 minutes of exercise a day should make you lose weight. If your not seeing results with this, maybe you just don t need to lose weight and your at a good, healthy weight.Hope this helps,Micayla

if you want to loose weight you have to change your lifestyle. you cant just diet and exercise for a little while. you have to change for a lifetime.

Does weight lifting and running help you lose weight faster then just running and not lifting weights? -

I saw on T.V. that you could run for 2 hours and it doesn t really do you any good unless you weight lift along with your running... I juts didn t know if that was true or not because it makes since because weight lifting builds more muslce and more muslce burns more fat so I just wanted to know if that was ture or not....

It is true that it takes more calories to support muscle than fat, so if you do weights and cardio then you will lose fat faster, however, since muscle weighs more than fat you might gain weight while losing fat. The show on t.v. about running not doing you any good is wrong. I am not sure what they said but your statement about the show is incorrect. You can lose lots of weight by running 2 hours per day, as long as your not eating more calories than you are burning.

yes it does, but keep your running time with in 30 to 45mins at a high intensity level. do not run for two hours or more your body will begin to use your glycogen stored in your muscle for energy. that is not good if your are trying to maintain muscle or grow muscle. Just look at your marathon runners for example.

yea running will make you loose alot even muscles if you dont work out,,,u have to maintain a high protein diet to get that nice cut physic,,,,both running and weightlifting come together to get a cut,strong and well built body,,,only working out will get you big but mayb not as cut. if you only run u will get skinny with not muscle ....so its better to do both

Im desperate,i really want to lose weight fast? -

i ve been gaining lot of weight for the past two years,i have anxiety problems,and my appetite is like an elephant s one...i don t know what to do...i can t stop eating...(i m not obese though,but i m way up with the pounds) i want to try out some pills to supress my appetite...are those hydroxycut really good?

Hydroxycut works for some and doesn t work for others. It all depends on your body. I used to take diet pills and now my heart beats very fast and I sometimes get stomach cramps. Drinking fresh brewed green tea can help boost your metabolism, curb your appetite and help you shed pounds. I drink about 3-4 cups a day. You can find green tea bags in the tea aisle of your local grocery store. Good luck!

Hoodia make sure it is the authentic one it should come with a certificate in the box suppress apatite

Try Welbutrin. It s for anxiety but has been shown to help control weight problems especially if your weight gain is related to stress.

WORKOUTTTTTTTTTT!!!PILLS KILL

Pills aren t a good idea. GlaxoSmithKline just developed the first FDA approved over-the-counter weight loss supplement, it will be available June15th. It doesn t affect your heart or brain, and works only in the digestive system to help block 1/4 of the fat that you eat. It s called alli. http://www.myalli.comThere is no miracle pill. You can only lose weight through hard work and perseverance. Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Good luck!

What is the best weight loss program for emotional eaters? -

Don t get emotional.

Hello Teresa;As you know, it is not that easy to say don t get emotional, problem solved.With emotional eating, healing starts with awareness, stated by Marcella Pick, Ob/Gyn NP.She has a website exclusively for women. I was very impressed.You may want to check it out. There is a full page addressing emotional eating. This website is full of endless information on so many topics, there is an 800 number if you have additional questions or need further assistance.This could be just what you have been looking for.Good luck!

One that gets to the root of your eating problem. You don t have to spend money on a diet program. (Setting up an appointment with a registered dietitian or therapist may be helpful, though.) The next time you crave food, I suggest taking a moment to think about why you want it. Is it true hunger? Or did something stressful occur beforehand, like a fight with a friend or getting a bad grade on a test? If you re reaching for food due to emotional reasons, then make a list of non-food activities you could do to make yourself feel better. This takes some practice, but works in the long run. Good luck!

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.

Un expensive weight loss programs no n e? -

no

Okay...I only started two Mondays ago and All I do is walk one hour every morning. I wear a calorie counter monitor to loose weight by the numbers. I have already lost one pant size and 9 pounds. I am a woman and have three kids and this is the method I use when I gain weight.. I am now at a size two and everyone is always amazed that I have had three kids. This is what I do below when I throw on a few extra pounds. It always works..No diet pills, no energy drinks..just me walking and getting the water I need. Of course I watch what I eat and the Lean Cuisine meals are great for that since the calories per box are 180 to 380 per box. Just make sure you eat healthy every three to four hours so your body will perform at its max.Here it is:Helpful Tips for weight loss:1)A good way to loose weight is to use a calorie counter watchKeep to a 1,200 food intakeAdd 1,200 plus 3,500 (equals one pound of fat) ...and that is the total amount of calories you need to burn each day. Its actually really easy once you start watching the numbers and it doesn t seem like work or exercise. Its just a matter of changing the way you think about loosing weight.I use this method when i gain some pounds. The first time I did this I went from 168 to 1272) Most people do not get enough water in their system. Water is your body s principal chemical component, comprising, on average, 60 percent of your weight. Every system in your body depends on water. For example, water flushes toxins out of vital organs, carries nutrients to your cells and provides a moist environment for ear, nose and throat tissues.Lack of water can lead to dehydration, a condition that occurs when you don t have enough water in your body to carry out normal functions. To determine if you are getting enough water use this simple formula.. Take your weight, for example 150 pounds and divide by 2. Take your answer which is 75 lbs and change it to ounces, in this case 75 ounces. That is how many ounces of water you need a day. Your body performs mostly on water. If you make sure you get enough water everyday your body will perform at top notch and your body will no longer have the cravings of junk food. You will have a better performing body system to help you work out and feel better thru out your day.

It is if you expend some money at the beggining, the only thing that I make my patients to lose moiney in is in the detox program the rest it has to own efforts. Like changes some little bad habits.for more questions email me at georgina@foywellnesscenter.com

Try low carb, low fat, high fibre, high protein, and exercise. The foods are low caloried, and yet filling and healthy. Brisk walking is great for burning body fats.It is my lifestyle now. I am on low carb, low fat, high fibre, high protein and a hour brisk walk 5 times a week, and I have lost 31lbs/14kg and gained better health. I am now maintaining my 108lbs/49kg for more than a year, with more fruits and complex carbs.Details such as my experience, meals, snacks, recipes, foods to buy, reading labels, walking as an exercise and to shape the body etc etc,

1200 calories a day and 30-40 minutes of sweat 6-7 days a week. You ll drop about 2-3 healthy pounds a week. It costs nothing but a little hard work and some discipline. Good luck!

Has Anyone tried Herbal Life- Shapeworks weight loss program.? -

Its a program on weightloss which you get the supplies from a distributer.

Yes. Most of us can loose weight by having 2 shakes a day.With one meal. But not very realistic. Good for immediate results not lasting.They can be expensive. Taste is not that bad.
