Weight loss tips? Motivation? Diet and Exercise tips? -

Well,I m 5 7 and 160lbs I know I m overweight..I just lost 20lbs since last January, so almost a year ago! I ve really been slacking off and I m afraid I m going to gain it back. My legs are really skinny/muscular for my weight so I have a huge muffin top. Here s a picture, I cropped off my head, haha.http://i469.photobucket.com/albums/rr52/��I really need to lose the stomach fat.It s horrible.Umm, oh and I have really small boobs, like they re barely big enough for an A cup bra, so does that have anything to do with it?Help Pleaseeee!TIPS? MOTIVATION?BOTH?Thanks soo much.

Well, I m 14 6 2 and 265 lbs. And I have lost and gained more weight than oprah since I was 11, but it is now worse than ever. so all the motivation I need to exercise anymore is to look in the mirror. but you just have to make it an Absolute priority. make it come before everything else. and try to set a specific time for it so you don t end up procrastinating. as for a diet, just try to eat more healthy things than junk, but when you do eat junk eat it in smaller portions. Hope I helped! :D

Hi MKate, I also had weight problem before. I was looking for a solution, then I found this site and I followed the instructions there. It helped answer a lot of the doubts I have. You should check it out too. It s at http://www.simple-weight-loss.net

you re on your way - congrats on the weight loss! the best way to lose that muffin top is to build muscle. Dont worry as a women you won t bulk up (unless you re on testosterone) . But by adding muscle you re going to be a constant fat burning furnace. Combine that with the right cardio and eating habits you re sure to look even better than you do today. Remember two pieces of advice I give my clients: 1) anything worth doing is worth doing well so don t half *** it2) nothing tastes as good as skinny looks. good luck

Help with weight loss tips? -

Okay, I m 17, and I have PCOS, which makes it 4x as hard to loose weight. I m 5 5 and roughly 220 pounds. I never had issues with weight before I hit puberty, as my condition is the caus of my weight gain. I was an allstar softball player, volleyball player, and I ve been competively riding horses since I was three. I was wondering if anyone had Any good workout plans or tips? Don t worry about making anything too extreme or anything like that, because I am able to take even the toughest workouts.

Well, I ll give you some advice that ISN T an advertisement, haha.The biggest thing is to run. A lot. Whether you can go full speed or not, run as far and as long as is physically possible for you. Yoga or pilates would be a good addition to running.I m overweight, and have finally began losing weight these past few weeks, mostly through crunches (A ton of them), squats, and weights. I have lost roughly 7 lbs in 2 1/2 weeks, doing just this, as well as cutting down on food intake slightly.I am 5 9 and 195 lbs. as of Wednesday, so it s also not like I have 300 lbs to lose, so 7 comes easily. Along with just basic exercises, try eating smaller portions. If you find yourself hungry still after what should be enough, try eating more slowly, it gives the body time to digest the food.

I highly recommend you my weight loss program. It works just amazing and fast. If you are serious about losing weight. You should have a look weight loss correct program. It will work for you if you do it correct. I lost 22 pounds in 35 days with this program. You can find more info at link below.

If you have problems with weight do what I did - try acai berry. If you have the desire to lose weight its superfood qualities help loads - but those same qualities additionally help those who are trying to bulk up. Fantastic! There is a free trial going on currently at http://dulend.dietclinics.info , why not try it, what is the worst that could happen?

throw up like you never thrown up before haha jkeat less go to the y for like 3 hours aday and get a trainer unless you cant afford that thenrun ALOT

Its getting hard 4 me? -

cant loose n e more weight 4 some reason i lost 5 lbs and cant loose n e more im 5 2 and 131 lbs can some 1 give me some weight loss tips, ive even lowerd my cal intake to 900 cals and im exerciseing alot! plz help!

Your body is in starvation mode, you are burning WAY more calories than your body is taking in, as a result you body thinks that the food source as scarce and as a result holds on to everything it possible can. While it may sound counter intuitive eat more and you will probably start loosing weight again. When your body is functioning normally, i.e. not in starvation mode, woman burn 11 times their body weight in calories per day. 131 * 11 = 1441 and that is how many calories you burn at given no other activity, this is just a ball park and not an exact, and especially since your body is in starvation mode not accurate at all. But if your body was functionally on all cylinders you are burning an extra 1441 - 900 = 541 calories at rest, you also indicate your exercising a lot, not knowing how much that is, but just for having numbers to use lets say you burn and extra 300 calories while exercising each day, that means you are burning almost double what you are taking in, at 841 extra calories per day. A pound of body fat is 3500 calories which under normal conditions is a pound of fat every 4 days, or almost two pounds of body fat every week which is way to much and probably why you are in starvation mode. I would suggest probably upping your calories by 400-500 for the next week or two and see if your body starts burning fat again. Good Luck

You ve probably stopped losing because your body thinks you are starving it. 900 calories is too little, you should eat a minimum of 1000, prefurably no less than 1200 really. Try eating a little more and changing up your exercise routine, you could ve just hit an early slump.

Diets typically don t work (long term) because people reach their target weight, stop the diet, and return to their previous lifestyle; thus gaining the weight back and maybe more. To be honest, most of the diets out there use questionable methods and probably do your body more harm than good.There is no substitute for healthy eating and exercise. Losing weight and *maintaining it* requires persistence, dedication, and discipline. It truly is a lifestyle change. That s why most people choose diets; it s easier to get a quick fix rather than change their lifestyle.Perhaps you should checkout a dietitian and or a personal trainer.

I am trying to help my lady freind who is a 49 year old quadriplegic lose weight -

i cant find anything, online. she swears she cant loseweight beacause she is a quad. i know this is untrue. i used to be married to someone in a wheelchair. he lost weight, with unhealthy practices. ones i wont reccomend to her and she wouldnt take, anyway. i am looking fior healthy weight loss tips for her. she eats about 900 calories a day simply beacause she cant afford to eat more. unfortunately, sometimes people buy her food, or she splurges at the begginning of the month, and beacause her body is adapted to 900 calories a day, she gains rapidly. i am able to donate 50 a month to her, in addition to her 100. can anyone help me with tips?

It sounds like she s on some meds that cause the weight gain, and/or the difficulty to lose weight. Is that true? It can be so frustrating, so she has to decide what s more important to her. Her weight, or the medication. It s probably the medication. 900 calories is so little! Tell her to just enjoy the way the meds make her feel and not to worry about the weight. Just have her do any exercise that s possible.You re a good friend. Here s a star for you.Bless you and your friend. :)

Tips for teen to be a healthy shape!? -

Any weight loss tips for a teenager? ive recently let my weight slide and would just like to tone up. loose aprox half a stone? so i was thinking 2 pounds a week?I want to be healthy, and I wont starve myself or skip meals or whatever.What small excersises can I add into my routine to make a difference? etc.

My advice is to worry less about the numbers on the scale, and start taking your measurements once a week, at the same time every week. (Bust, waist, hips, thighs, or you can do more measurements, neck, biceps, bust, waist, abdomen, hips, thighs, calves. Keep a running total.) You can lose water, so the scale shows less weight, but if you re dehydrated you re not healthier. You also should not count calories. Low calorie dieting just gives you a headache, which probably means your blood sugar is low, which means your energy is low, and that means your metabolism has slowed down to compensate for your lowered calorie intake.You need to focus on balance; lots of veggies, whole grains, lean meat and dairy, and fruit, at every meal, and eat to comfortable satisfaction. Snack on veggies first and add in other healthy foods if you re still hungry. Don t eat fruit on an empty stomach. No artificial sweeteners, and go very easy on caffeine. Cut out desserts until your body is the shape you want. And drink at least 8 8-oz. cups of pure water a day. When you give your body plenty of healthy calories, your body won t be in survival mode, and your body won t think you re starving and will stop storing fat. You ll also have a lot more energy and feel a lot better. The bottom line is, don t worry about what the scale tells you. Go for your personal best and gauge by how you feel. Go by measurements, not weight. You want to be well hydrated and have lots of lean muscle, which weighs more than fat, so you can be healthier and end up weighing more. Don t put too much stock in weight charts and BMI and such, they don t take into account your body type or how much muscle you have, or how dense your bones are. You could get your body fat tested, a healthy range for women is 15% - 25%. It may be slightly different depending on your age.You re very smart to keep tabs on your weight, that s the only way to keep it from getting out of control. Just don t obsess over it. You re making habits now that will be with you for the rest of your life.

add more fruit and veg into your food intake instead of unhealthier foods and snacks. add in an extra 15-30 mins of exerscise a day such as running, biking, swimming, and do a couple of toning exerscises such as pushups and situps :)

Unless your obese you have no reason to lose weight, watch the pounds don t lose the pounds otherwise.i m 5 6 and 112lbs.

exercise for at least an hour everyday. being a teen, this is the easiest time in your life to make exercise FUN. Do it with your friends!!

Weight loss??? -

any weight loss tips that work?

I have my weight loss story on my profile. What works for one person may not work for another, first off. When I felt the desire to loose weight I wrote my goals out first on a chart that I made. I posted goals and the chart in my room (somewhere generally private if you are a private person), that way when I woke up in the morning my goals were staring me in the face. I cut back my portions, cut out fast food, watched the calorie intake, drink more water, eat small snacks (never before sleeping), exercise at least 3 days a week/cardio 2 days, walk 1 1/2 - 2 hours a day, have one splurge day (you choose your day), sleep at least 6-8 hours a day, drink more green tea and cut out sodas. I ve lost 80 lbs. since 2005 and kept it off. (I ve tried other remedies in the past, such as pills, and they didn t work. They gave me and energy boost and I stopped craving food at first, but then when I stopped it I was starving and went right back to the food again. I ve also watched friends go through fitness places and plans. I m a private person, so I had to find something more private.) I counted my calorie intake the first month and then it became habit.

yup, eat less.... exercise more. simply put, burn more calories than you take in and be sure to eat at least three meals a day to keep your metabolism up.

Whenever you are trying to lose weight, you should concentrate on these three things which all work together in providing a healthier and quicker weight loss goal for yourself. I have found this combination really successful in my weight loss plans. The first thing is exercising and how much you can put forth into it. The more you exercise, the more results you will see. The next thing is dieting and the calorie intake. If you exercise more, technically you could eat more? Always watch what you eat.Now the last step in a good weight loss plan is always a good diet pill that can help you get to the end of the road. I have found Proactol which is a natural herbal diet pill to be the best around. It s an appetite suppressant along with being a fat blocker which stops up to 28% of fat you eat. Read up about it at TheWeightLossPlace.com where I saved money on it. Proactol really works well with exercising which gives you plenty of energy to perform. Along with that you diet will be affected by Proactol due to the appetite suppressant and fat blocker. If you slip up on meals, the fat blocker kicks in. It s really great to stop food cravings.Concentrate on those three things and the combination is deadly for the fat cells in your body. Good luck and I hope this helps.

cut about 500 calories from your diet, eat 3 meals and 3snacks a day, and drink more water. easy
