I m 5 4 and I weigh 180lbs and It s really hard to lose weight. It s hard to fight the cravings.
Just the classic eating healthy and exercising daily. Diets aren t always effective and sometimes it takes a long time to find the right one. Eating healthy does not mean starving. The average woman should be having 1500-2000 calories a day. Get rid of all of the junk food in your house so you wont be tempted to eat it. Only keep healthy foods in your house. If you ever feel the need to snack, snack on celery sticks, apples, nuts, and little things like that. It will really fill you up. Try to limit your red meats. They re not good for you and will slow your metabolism down. Instead try some skinless chicken or tuna. I ve found that running is a really good way to exercise. You don t even need to run for too long. Even 15-30 minutes a day is enough. It speeds up your metabolism and burns calories. Also things like aerobics and yoga classes are also good sources of exercise. Becoming a vegetarian is also a good way to lose weight. You can make it a temporary thing just to lose weight. Just make sure that you eat mostly fruits and vegetables rather than a bunch of carbs. A lot of vegetarians make that mistake.
Here are some tips:(1) Eat smaller meals or snacks throughout the day. Start with breakfast within an hour of getting up, then eat something in the 250-350 calorie range every three hours or so. Eating breakfast kick-starts your metabolism in the morning, and eating smaller every three hours or so keeps it running at a higher level.(2) Add exercise. One of the best exercises is walking because it burns fat almost exclusively. Sneak in brisk walks whenever you can, even if it s only for ten minutes. If you can do an hour a day, GREAT!(3) You have to make the bad-for-you stuff the exception and not the rule. I m sure you know what you should be eating and what you should be avoiding, so build your meals and snacks around the good-for-you stuff. EXCEPTION: Allow yourself half a day a week where you can eat or drink whatever you want as long as you don t stuff yourself. That ll make it easier to stick with a healthy eating plan.(4) Eat more protein and less carbs. Carbs are easily converted into fat, but protein requires a lot of energy to break down, so you can actually burn more calories just by eating more protein. WARNING: Protein does make your kidneys work harder, but there s an easy fix: Drink more water.(5) If you can t kick the cravings, you may want to consider hypnosis. Many hospitals and clinics now offer hypnosis for weight loss, and in many cases it s covered by medical insurance. However, you don t have to see a hypnotherapist. There are several websites where you can get hypnosis CDs and MP3s to help you with weight loss and exercise. Here s one: http://www.hyptalk.com/Good luck!
My first suggestion is take a look at what you re eating.. everyone is different. My guess is you are consuming (on a daily basis) large amounts of sugar, carbohydrates and calories. I am not that tall and I seem to notice when I put on 5lbs. I would minimize your portions, start doing 30 minutes of cardio, and eat more healthy. More veggies. I limit myself to one soda a day and I eat pasta once a week. Once you start eating right, your body will feel really lousy when you give in to cravings.
I do little things to keep myself in shape, I go for a walk every day that s about 2 miles with my boxer. Listening to music or taking a friend can keep you from getting bored...And fighting the cravings can be tough, just remember that if you really want something fattening only have a taste. You don t have to restrict yourself completely, but don t let yourself go crazy. Try different kinds of healthy food, who knows? You might find something that tastes better than junk food. I d take seafood any day over ice cream or cake. Remember, always leave some food on the plate when you go out to eat. Restaurants always serve more than a portion. I hope this helps! Good luck!
You can DO IT!!!. You don t need to starve yourself to loose weight, because if you do its just comes back, and haunts you! Just eat sensibly and excersise, if you want to have a cookie, FINE! Just one or two, and to make it a little healthier try a glass of milk with it to get all your nutrients. Trust me the people that starve themselves always gains there weight back.
Replace all the bad foods with healthy ones - try to eat foods from home as much as possible.Stay hydrated with water.Exercise hard and burn more calories than you eat. Don t be afraid to lift weights.Get support from your friends and family.Try fatsecret.com. It s a good site to track your progress. Good luck
*sigh* this is gonna be long. i beta get best answer for this o.O lol jk.well first you must eliminate the junky snacks. the kind that dont fill you up but they are rely junky. we re tlaking bout the chips , popcorn , ice cream , popcicles , candies , and chocolate. eat more at meals and eat stuff that fill u up. then DO NOT EAT BEFORE BEDTIME!!! if u eat b4 bed time you shall gain weight like crazy. eat most at mealtimes perferably breakfast. not hungry at breakfast? to bad :o lol jk. but still eat alot at breakfast. then of course exersize. long walks and jogging can do WONDERS. maybe lisetning to ur ipod while taking a long walk. if you dont like walking bicycling skateboarding ect could be a subsitutte. walk/bicycle/skateboard ect for at least 30min 1nce in morning and 1nce in afternoon. then do 30pushups and 30situps (if u cant do tht much do as much as u can til u can do 30) in the morning and afternoon. u mite wana consider sports too. tennnis is a great workout , so is cross country , and dancing and stuff. BASEBALL/SOFTBALL SUCKS FOR EXCERSIZING. at last of all dont do lean cusine or weight watchers or fake sugar. u realize some of those toxins could give u cancer. pce out hope this helps.
Jenny CRANK... Smoke up some rocks and you ll be good to go. Have you ever seen a fat tweeker? Then again you say its hard to fight cravings. When you get hooked on that crap there is probably no going back.
EAT LESS AND EXERCISE MORE watch this guys youtube videos there amazing on fitness and ive learned a lot http://www.youtube.com/user/scooby1961
Try your hardest to find snacks that are HEALTHY Cravings. Also exercise regularly.
ermmm well you can try to get some friends and go play something I dont eat all day if my friends are over but we play games like running around and stuff hope this helps!
Everything that taste good is bad for you. READING A BOOK DOES WONDERS.
Be more active, stop eating before you are full but just when u start to feel good. Stop eating junk food if you do.
train yourself to eat smaller portions at meal times! dont snack in between meals unless its like a fruit or veggie! and exercise more often!
exersize
just exercise - do an hour a day doing sit ups and the plank etc. It worked for me. The more you eat the more you work out
