How to lose weight fast!!!? -

first off let me start off by saying if you have nothing nice to say, dont say ANYTHING!!! ok, now i heard that starving actually works for losing weight... i saw a lady on youtube who went a month with out food and lost alot of weight.but im not going to starve myself. i would like to go on a juice only diet... still healthy. my cousin tried it before and she went from 190lbs. to 166lbs. in a week... how is this possible???has anyone tried it?? does it really work??? and is it worth it???

Eat more! Don t be fooled because the article is referring to more of healthy, low-fat foods rather than junk food. Junk food can range from burgers to those cookies that you always bought! Adding a lot of vegetables and fruits to your diet will help you. Also, drinking bouillon, a Haitian soup, made with filtered water will help you feel full. BasketballExercise every day! This could be the most difficult step to follow. But what you can do is actually start slowly then steady increase the amount of exercise. For example, today you will walk for 10 minutes, repeat this for the whole week. For the next week, double your workload. You may get leaner that way! The important thing is to get your heart rate up and start, now! Feed your temptations once in a while. Go ahead and have that donut or slice of pizza, but before you do, drink a few glasses of water and eat a bowl of raw veggies such as cucumbers, celery, carrots, and tomatoes. They will fill you up and you will have very little room to eat the junk food. Scrumptious!Consume things that have no calories. There are two things you eat and drink that contain no calories: water and fiber. The more of these you get into your diet, the better off you will be. For example, you can eat a pound of mixed salad greens with assorted raw vegetables (carrots, red cabbage, celery, broccoli, onion, etc.) with a low or no-calorie salad dressing and only have eaten 100-150 calories. This is because of the high water and fiber content of the salad and low calorie dressing. Also, eat lots of celery. It has only 8 calories, but amazingly, it takes more than 8 calories to digest it. So, you actually BURN calories by eating celery! It s not much, about 2 calories per 8 inch stalk, but it sure doesn t hurt. Avoid sodas as much as possible. Instead, drink flavored water or unsweetened iced tea. Take broth-based soups. They are a relatively low in calories. A commerically-available ready to eat chicken and stars soup may only have 80 calories for 1 serving, much less than diet meal shakes or nutrition bars. These may help you.Practice good eating habits. Always use utensils and sit at the table. This stops you from eating precariously. Eating with your hands will mean that you take in more food in one scoop. Don t forget to eat slowly and stop when you re full. Similar to the above step, if you can t stop, drink up! Maybe your body is thirsty and hungry no more! Also, you can do any other chores (other than eating). For instance, go shopping, or play badminton with your friend, or play games on the computer! Spread out your diet! Eat more small chunks of meals, rather than 3 big meals. If you eat 100-150 calories or so every two hours, your body stays in a higher-metabolism digesting mode. This allows you to burn more calories than eating just 3 meals a day.[1] Source(s):http://centerformedicalweightloss.com/la��http://www.smallstep.gov/?gclid=CIqXsZjb��http://exercise.about.com/cs/weightloss/��http://www.fourhourworkweek.com/blog/200��http://www.netdoctor.co.uk/health_advice��

There are numerous diet plans that can tell you how to lose weight fast. Some work better than others, some are easier to stick to than others, and some are less expensive than others. Medifast offers the most choices, which makes it easier to stick to and keep losing weight. The cabbage soup diet is repetitive but cheap to be on, while the lemonade diet requires the least preparing. Sometmes the need to lose wieght fast doesn t translate into keeping the pounds off.

No its not worth it at alll!!!!! all of your cousins weight is going to come back on in no time once she starts eating again so dont even worry about that.if you want to lose weight for GOOD and still quickly go on a low carb diet where normal people lose up to 14lbs in 2 weeks!!! basiclly low carb is fish,chicken,turkey, eggs, little bit of cheese, veg...ect.soo heres an example of a low carb dayB- eggwhite omlete with tomatoes and fatfree cheeseL- HUGE salad with veg and chicken (make sure your dressing is fat free and NO crutons)D- chicken or fish and lots of veggiesso you can still eat and lose a lot of weight!!

Well i think that would be the best choice. If you want to lose weight fast or a lot. Just follow these steps.1. run everyday for about 30min a day.2. do about 50 sit ups every night or do as much as you can.3. and if you wanna gain some more muscle you should do some push ups as well. 4. this is really important whenever you are done eating make sure to eat things like meat or fish and even a banana. do not eat any cabs before you go to bed it gives you a little more weight. And just look at me i am in really good shape.

well fasting will work... obviously because you re starving yourself. but as soon as you start eating again you will gain the weight back and then some.. (happened to me) and was the lady you saw on youtube sushicatny? i saw her and she lost a lot of weight but now she s wayyy heavier than she was when she started the fast and now she has to follow a diet and exercise plan to lose weight. I think thats the best thing to do. eat a little less workout 20 minutes a day and don t eat past 5 or 6pm. pounds will drop fast!

I doubt that is possible but not only is this not healthy as soon as you start eating normally again you will gain the weight back and since you took things away from your body when you eat them you will want to eat twice as much.With any diet where you cut out so much of one thing (ex. adkins) once you start to eat the carbs normally again you will gain the weight back

Starving is a **** way for making yourself lose weight. :/You screw up your metabolism.Your cousin only lost weight fast, because honestly, she probably did need to lose a lot of weight. I don t believe all of that weight will stay off though.

i wouldnt try that diet. i think you should eat healthier and work out. i dont think it is healthy to lose 24 lbs in a week. if you have ever seen the biggest loser that works for them.

Don t go on a juice diet, you need to have a healthy diet, how heavy areyou

I think the answer u are looking for is here www.czone.info/acaiberry . Very useful informative site !

no, it won t work. juice is sugar and fruit. if you want to be skinny AND healthy, try a different diet.

Sigh The formula for weight loss is SIMPLE. Consume less than you burn. Go to a gym and get your BMR (Base metabolic rate) and determine how many calories you need to maintain your weight and stay healthy. Most people average around 1300 to maintain basic body functions and about 1800 to maintain current weight.Low intensity exercise burns fat.3700 calories = 1lb.Walk 3 miles = jog 3 miles = 370 calories.Spin cycling class = 500-700 calories per hour. 1/2 fat, 1/2 carbsSo for example if you jog 3 miles in the morning, eat 1700 calories per day, and then take a spin cycling class in the evening, you re running a deficit of 800 calories a day or 1 lb every 4 days without having to starve yourself and you re turning into an athlete along the way. Increase running/walking/jogging distance by no more than 10% per week. Keep your workouts in Zone 2.Eat lots of fruit and veggies and foods with soluble fiber such as oatmeal and cheerios. Avoid ALL junk foods. Avoid fried foods. Stay away from soda. This should be an easy 4 pound drop 2 weeks along with the working out, another 3.5 pounds. Total your first 2 weeks, 7.5 lbs lost permanently and you should be on your way to training for a 10K race.Stop dieting and turn yourself into an athlete. Starvation diets put your body into starvation mode which basically reduces your body s ability to burn fat, slows down cellular division, metabolism and digestive processes (food stays in your gut longer as your body tries to absorb EVERY iota of nutrition it can).The video shows someone that dehydrated, starved and essentially tortured themselves and only lost 24 lbs in 30 days of which 10lbs was food/residue that was in her gut. There is no easy way...but the way I ve outlined is PERMANENT.

I m certain that it is very possible to lose that much weight in a week... but most of those pounds won t be from fat.I don t really care how you decide to lose weight, but before you decide I think that you should at least know that there is a large difference between weight loss and fat loss (and thus get your last question is it worth it? answered)As I said, you can lose a lot of weight in a short period of time (when I used the cambridge diet I lost 4 pounds/day by just watching tv), but most of the weight you lose won t be from fat, but your muscle. This is unavoidable in any diet that makes you lose more than 2 pounds/week. Why? Because even when you don t use your muscles, they will burn a lot of calories for you. And when the body notice that you are not consuming enough calories for it to maintain itself, it will go into starvation AND BURN THE CALORIE BURNING MUSCLES TO USE FOR ENERGY INSTEAD. This is very important to remember, because this means that your metabolism will slow down considerably (to just regain 1 pound of pure muscle is really hard to do later on), and what do you think will happen when you start eating again as you did before, only that you now have a much slower metabolism than before you started? YOU REGAIN FAT, probably even more than you had when you started. I can also add, the more muscle you have, the more you can eat without gaining any weight.So, now you know the negative side with these kind of diets. So if you want to lose fat, and not regain all the pounds again as soon as you stop, then aim for a diet that let you lose 2 pounds/week.Once again, I don t really care what you decide to do, but I think you should know about these things before you make your decision. Personally though I don t think those diets are worth the trouble though.

Does anyone know a diet that you can lose weight FAST? -

Don t target losing more than about 2 lbs per week. If you try to lose faster, your body will go into starvation mode and get very stingy about burning calories while at the same time very efficient about storing any calories that you do provide. And it will make you feel awful. There is no site specific way of losing fat... the old myth about working your abs to burn belly fat isn t true. To get rid of love handles, you need to lose overall fat. That happens with exercise and watching your diet. More on that below. The most effective way to lose fat is aerobic exercise in the moderate fat-burning range, ideally first thing in the morning before you eat. When you wake your body is ready to burn fat and your levels of growth hormone are highest at that time. Later in the day it can take up to 30 minutes just to put your body into a fat-burning mode. Another overlooked way to burn fat is by lifting weights. Skeletal muscle has very high caloric needs... almost twice that of adipose (fat) tissue. Put on a little muscle and you will burn calories all day even at rest. Be aware that skeletal muscle weighs more, so with this approach you may see your weight increasing while your body fat is melting away. Not realizing this often stresses folks who think they should be losing weight as a measure of fitness. Forget the scale, look in the mirror and you will be happy.To lose a pound of fat, you need to eliminate about 3500 calories. You can do this by burning more with exercise or by modifying your diet to reduce intake. If you do a Google search on say, swimming calories you will quickly find a website with tables of calories burned for a given exercise. You can use such lists to estimate how many calories you are burning up with your routine.For diet, keep a diary for a couple of weeks counting calories, grams of protein, and grams of fat intake. It is easy with online sources of nutritional information (type the name of the food and calories into the Google search engine) and packaging labels. That will let you quickly figure out where the fat is coming from in your diet. Fat gives you 9 calories per gram. So take the number of grams of fat, multiply by 9, then calculate what percentage the fat calories are of your total daily calories. Restricting the calories from fat to about 20% of your total intake is ideal for a maintenance diet... that isn t overly restrictive. Of note, you need some fat in your diet. For instance, the body uses fat to produce hormones. Once you have a picture of how to modify your diet, you can drop the diary and just go back to it occasionally if you are wanting to tweek things further.There is a subset of questions that goes further and asks about How to get a six-pack? The answer is the same. Six-packs are 20% abdominal exercise and 80% diet. There is one caveat... abdominal muscles will form in the position that you exercise them, so be certain to pull them tightly toward your spine while doing crunches, etc. Also, during most lifting, the core is active which means that you should be stabilizing with contracted abs then too. Fail to do this and the abs will form, but bulging outward and the result is not attractive.If you are trying to build muscle as a way to lose fat, then you may need to increase total calories and specifically your protein intake. I target about 0.8 g of protein per pound of body weight each day when actively building. That is far more protein than most people need in their diets.Aloha

Listen, if you loose weight fast it would not be a very good idea, your body will get all stretchy and it is unhealthy. Just do the usual, eat in small amounts, exercise and never over eat. Why is it so hard for you idiots..

After having a child I lost 75 lbs by, eating just cereal everyday for every meal 5 days a wk. on weekends, I hate only lowfat foods and not after 5 p.m. Such as, baked chicken, 1 veg, and zero to nonfat desert. I did not give up my sweet tea through the week, and ate any kind of cereal out there. Anytime, during the day I d eat a bowl of cereal if I got hungry. It work quick also!

Fast weight loss dietFast weight loss dietOne of the health conditions that are now being referred to as epidemics is weight loss. It is important that each and every one of us must be aware about his/her body weight as there are number of health related risks that only weight with weight loss. If you think that you are one of those overweight people, it is best for you look into possible fast weight loss diets.There are some basic principles for fast weight loss diets. So here I am going to tell you some basic principles which you must keep in mind while looking for fast weight loss diets. * Number of people thinks that solution to weight loss problem can be summed up in a single term which is known as calories in and calories out. It means that in order to lose weight, you must burn off more calories than you take in. But doing this is not always easy. This is why you have to look for a diet that should go about achieving the proper calories in and calories out ratio. Fast weight loss diet principles * You must look for a diet that makes good nutritional sense for you. A fast weight loss diet that promises a 10-pound loss in a weekend may sound great, but if this means you only have to consume fruit juices for three days, you should know better. Losing weight is not about losing nutrients at the same time. Your body needs nutrients, and without these or lack of these can greatly affect your health. * A good fast weight loss diet should encourage exercise at the same time. If they tell you that the diet does not require exercise, you have to consider other options because the diet s goal is not good health. A combination of proper diet and exercise is one of the most effective ways to reduce that weight fast.Today number of fast diet plans is available in the market. And many of them will not work for you. So it is very necessary for you to choose the best diet program for you. I think the basic principles which I have mentioned here will surely help you to find the best diet plan for you that match your weight loss requirements.

Walk for at least one hour a day. Just walk. That is all the excercise you need to do. Do not eat things like potatoes, bread or pasta after 3pm. Have a big breakfast and a smaller lunch, with a tiny dinner. Never eat before going to bed. You will go to sleep and all that energy will be stored as fat.

You can stop eating.You can be sensible and consult your doctor on sensible eating that will lose weight gradually without damaging your health.

My ideas? Try to do 200 minutes of cardio a week. Remember fat does not turn into muscle, so you need to lose your fat while putting on muscle. Work hard, but don t over 60 minutes at a time. Do planks and other abs exercises on alternate days.On training days, do 5-10 minutes of cardio to warm up, then do your weight training. Do 30 to 60 minutes more of cardio, then go home.The best time to eat is just after your workout within an hour when your metabolism is raging. For your muscles, incorporate some isolated soy protein or whey protein. Whey is more potent but the soy tastes better!Don t look at your scale as the be all and end all, but get a measuring tape to check your progress, and that will show more tangible results.Read magazines like Shape, Womens Fitness, Fitness, etc to get tips and to stay motivated.Good luck and stick at it. This plan has lost me 20 lbs in 12 weeks so far, just go for it!

If 7 lbs a week is enough email me and I ll tell you how, the healthy and safe way~!

no such thing.if you do those cheater diets you ll double your weight when you give up.so... why don t you do the sensible thing.www.mypyramid.gova well balanced diet with moderate sweets, fats.. and exercise will do you wonders.and drink those fluids.:Dand don t lose any more than 12lbs a month.if you cheat you ll end up larger than you were before the cheater diets you engaged in. you ll starve, end up craving and sell your soul for a donut and then put on 20lbs where there was only 10lbs before.

the best and the fastest way to lose weight is to obstruct the quantity of food that we eat! dont skip meals ull end up feeling very hungry by the next meal....just try and concentrate on some really imp issue like ur studies ,ur bf or sumthing that doesnt deal with FOOD! its the best.i used to have milk toasted rusk(available at indian markets) with a large cup of tea for breakfast,if i felt hungry in between meals i used to munch on an apple or any such fruit,for lunch i had proper home made food (have the entire meal),in the evening have milk its neccesary for our bones,ad for dinner i used to have a med bowl of pasta with veggies or soup and salad.i even opted for plain gravy and whatever mum made for dinner without any carbs! im a b+ so carbs make me gain weight! have loads of water and jog days a week for 15mints! ull lose weight like sumthing! i lost 6kgs in 1 month.

eat small (very small, like three crackers) amounts of food 5 to 6 times a day it will keep your metabolisim running drink water

Try Jimmy Tango s Fat Busters Program. I ve linked to a short introductory video below.Ride the Snake!

all chemical diet

Hi Lindsay...Its good that you want to lose weight.But i would like to suggest that the best way to lose ur extra fat or whatever you say is to make it shed by working out and not by starving yourself.You can reduce your food intake but increase your body activity which will mak eyou lose calories....You can spend some time to identify the calorie intake per day and the calories you burn in your daily activities....Once you identify and match these then you will be alright.From my point that is the best way.... :)Regards,Varalu.

skip break fast skip lunch skip supper take only something enough at night not much just enough .. it really helps in one week I can garuntee you will loose like 10 pounds but you have to have will power .. it worked for me ...

You lose weight quickly, you will very quickly put it back on.No alcohol, don t eat after seven pm, eat healthy, balanced small meals. LOTS of water.

Can any one help me lose weight fast? -

I am 14 5 5.5 and 140 lbs. I do Turbo Jam twice a day and i ride my bike once a day. I know I need to eat right but is there any way that i can lose weight FAST by just exercising. Or is there any way i can lose weight fast?

I LOVE Turbo Jam, haha. But really? It sounds like you re doing it right with the exercise, just make sure you DO eat right... that s essential as well. I know it s frustrating when you don t see immediate results, but it takes time. My only other suggestion would be diet pills, but your way is a lot healthier. (:

Sorry to say this, but no. You will have to eat right also, in fact, that is the MOST important thing in losing weight. There is so much false information going around about weight loss. Some is decent advice but most of it is horrible.The most important thing for fat loss, is that your diet is as natural and unprocessed as possible. It almost always comes back to the over processing of food that makes it bad for you, and makes it totally destroy your metabolism and hormone balance in your body. For example, why eat refined grains, when you can eat whole grains. Why eat refined sugar, when you can get natural sources of sugar from a high nutrient whole food like fruit. Why eat highly processed, refined, and hydrogenated vegetable oils (these are THE worst thing in the modern diet), when you can eat natural sources of healthy fats like nuts, avocados, fish, eggs, coconut milk, organically raised meat, and so forth. The point is to not fall for some gimmick like low carbs, low fat, high protein, or any other combination that has you focusing on one macronutrient vs. another. Your body needs all macronutrients to thrive and obtain a variety of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, etc. Trying to cut an entire food group out just works against what your body needs.Just be persistent, set goals, make little changes and stick with them. Don t count calories, it will drive you crazy. Just stop eating when your satisfied. You will get to where you want to be. You really have to want it, I did, and I m at my goal weight now. Please check out my blog, I think you will enjoy the information and my weight loss story. The link is below and best of luck hon.

How to lose weight fast and in only 1 month? -

like i wanna know how could you lose weight fast within one month.? what can i do to lose it that fast and what to eat? anything that can help me lose my weight in one month.????

Chop off an arm...hahaha.Seriously - weight loss that fast (and yo-yo dieting) has serious long-term side effects - I know my wife was hospitalized for 3 weeks due to stones in her gall bladder which were the result of this quick weight loss dieting - and I have never seen anyone in so much pain even with large doses of morphine. You shouldn t lose more than 2 lbs a week - that s a safe amount. Sorry - but all quick fixes have repercussions.Suggest exercise as the best way - and simply cut out snacking between meals and eat sensibly. This is safe and effective - albeit not very exciting.

Yeah to whoever Said to stop eating needs to get out. When you are a slightly larger person and you stop eating your body goes into, What i call, Panic Mode. IT starts store fat instead of burning fat. Your body needs calories to burn calories. Report Abuse

Ok this is the most unhealthy thing in the world, but it works. Baby food and Ensure. It s called the stripper diet . Unhealthy as all get out, but as I said, it works.

drink 3 cups of water before every meal

The problem with dropping weight too quick is that it comes straight back!!! Slimming World is great - red days and green days - lots of excercise - Atkins with caution - it made me very ill.... good luck and don t be too critical ofyourself!

Do what I do...get a smaller plate and eat only how much the small plate can hold.Pratice TaeKwonDo...and jog/walk 6 kilometers a day, drink LOTS of WATER...more than 8 glasses...drink water before and after meals to replace the amount of food you usually miss...believe me...My waistline was 30 and in one month it suddenly got to 26 :Dor simply sweat...see the results...try it yourself...if you maintain this for a month...you ll be as thin as me ^_^hope this helped you...Gammbate kudasai!!!(try your best...)

liposuction.

try atkins or jenny craig

I lost 9,5 kg in one month,this way- before every meal, but even before I get an apple I use to drink two glasses of water with a squeeze of lime inside, and eat plait of soup. This way you are not only losing weight, your skin remain elastic and body healthy

Do not ingest any starch or fat or protein. Just eat vegetables, not even beans. Lots of exercises.

Stop eating white processed foods - such as white bread, white sugar, and related stuff like cakes, etc.Also go to the gym every day and do an hour s workout (with a day off a week) or running, etc.My dad stopped eating breakfast because he said it made him feel hungrier if he d eaten breakfast, and then had a small lunch (e.g. soup), and a normal size dinner, and that helped him lose weight a lot. But most people recommend that you have a larger breakfast and less lunch, so it really does depend on the person.But honestly, if you lose lots of weight in a month, you haven t changed habits, and it s more than likely you ll yo-yo back to your original weight and feel worse than when you started.It s much better to change your eating habits, and your exercise habits, to induce a sustainable pattern that will help you lose weight long term.

try this: mornin -evening-gum, evenin try apples. or: aplles when you are hungry. i loosed 6 in 2 weeks.

How to lose weight FAST? help.? -

I m 14, 5 2 7 a half stone, so i obviously want to lose weight especially for summer.I tried only eating breakfast each day but i don t lose any weight. i walk most places but my thighs are still big, my stomach is kinda chubby so i want to tone that as well.please help me lose weight, what can i do to burn fat, i cant seem to lose any?xoxo

This is not a myth I have followed this plan and I lost 11lb in 11 days, my stomach was getting flatter each day. You eat 4 meals a day and you get too each as much as you want I know it s hard to believe but it s true I was full and contented and the weight was dropping off me .Can you believe it you hardly have to even exercise you do have to drink water but if you can t drink all the water it still works. You get a list of foods you tick which ones you like and it s generates a 11 day plan for you to follow I loved it, I��m target now but if I put on a few pounds I just start the plan again you can generate a different diet each time not to get bored with the same foods. This is the only diet I have ever done when I have lost that much weight in a small amount of time it s a miracle in my eyes. Don��t use low carbs, low fat, low calorie diets they don t always work. Learn the 10 rules to achieve massive weight loss, don��t spend hours on the cross trainer because you are going burning carbs and not fat. If you brisk walk for 30 to 40 minutes a day then you will burn off the fat on this diet you will be amazed in the results you get in just 11 days and t

Step 1:First you want to walk when possible you do not need to jog just walk. Take a walk around the neighborhood. Jump on the trampoline with the kids. Try to get a least a little bit of physical activity.Step 2:You will need to eat a lot of cereal including oatmeal, tuna on wheat with a little mayonnaise, fish, grains, fresh fruit, and fresh vegetables. Step 3:You can still eat at fast food restaurants just eat a little healthier.Eat a grilled chicken salad with low fat dressing and drink water or a diet soda. Or eat a sandwich on wheat with lots of vegetables and turkey with low fat dressing or none at all. You can enjoy some of those high fat foods occasionally just not daily. Limit yourself to one every two weeks. Watch the pounds begin to shed.

What is a good way 2 lose weight fast? -

I am pro-mia but its not workin 2 fast enough... ne 1 have ne ways 2 lose weight faster? i run 3-5 miles every day so it not cuz im not exercising

stimulate your metabolism fresh celery and parsley do it well

Be realistic. Don t expect a miracle. Healthy weight loss can be achieved fairly quickly, but you ll need to be patient. In addition, be sure to set realistic goals. Make sure that the weight you re trying to reach is a healthy weight for you, and keeping in mind that gaining pounds of muscle will help you lose fat, be trimmer, and look better even though you don t actually lose any weight. Your goal should be a healthy body, not a number of pounds! Everyone looks good at a different weight. A short person may look really good at about 112 pounds, but a person of a taller height would just look unhealthy. Keep yourself at a weight that makes you look good, not at a number that sounds good.

Please don t fo mia, it is so hard to stop :(

How do i lose weight? -

ok i am kinda big for my age and i wanted to know how to lose weight fast? im tired of the way i am and i want to lose some weight and hopefully before the summer. CAN ANYONE HELP?

Rule of thumb for weight loss: Diet= 70% exercise= 30%Great 7 step plan to follow for LASTING and healthy results (My sources are I ve been a world-class athlete since age 6, read tons about this for years including Gunnar Peterson s book The Workout [he s trainer to A list celebrities] and Tony Robbin s The Body You Deserve and after educating my brother, he lost 45 pounds in 4 months and has kept it off for 1.5 years):1. Awareness of what you eat by keeping a diet journal to see where ure going wrong plus writing down very specific goals w/a time frame on them (be realistic yet firm) and view them on a regular basis. Also- tell someone about your progress toward your goals on a regular basis- this will keep you accountable. I have an excel spreadsheet that lists all my goals and my weekly progress toward them and I share them with my boyfriend each week so we can discuss it. Choose someone encouraging and motivating that wants to see you succeed. Family and best friends are great choices.2. Best cardio is running in terms of weight loss. It is however, very high-impact and can lead to injuries. If you get injured- 2nd best is rowing, 3rd is cycling (both of which are less impact). You should be doing cardio minimum 4 times a week 30min.-1 hr. Weight loss heart rate range is one where you can carry on a conversation w/o a big struggle.3. Resistance program to help firm muscles and give a pretty tone (u can t spot-reduce- weight training results per individual body part will only be visible after the fat layer is off from the cardio). You should do this 2-3 times a week for 30 min-1 hr each time. It s important to have that break in between so your muscles can rest. Remember- each muscle gained= more calories lost on a daily basis b/c this revs up your metabolism! Jessica Biel is a great model for a muscular gorgeous body. Look at a picture of her and visualize your face on her body. The mind s thoughts literally create your reality and destiny. This has been proven over the centuries.4. 3 meals/2snacks per day: high fiber/ high protein helps keep you full and eat low carb unless its good complex carbs like salad and fruit and whole-grains. Bottom line: eat the natural foods our ancestors ate, no processed junk. The best foods for you are filled with FIBER (shoot for 35 gms a day- this will curb cravings like heck!) Anna Kournikova eats a fruit and has a glass of water 30 min before her meals to be fuller and eat less (you should always do this, esp b4 going out to eat where temptations are large). When you eat great, nutrient-packed foods, you dont need to obsess over counting calories- so many better things to occupy your time with, like reading! A clever mind will take you farther in life than a beautiful body :) Bottom line- keep perspective and don t let this consume you to the point of being OCD. Also, no diet sodas- the fake sugars actually make ure body crave more sugary stuff. Stick to tea (coffee makes your body crash and can increase appetite) and water and never bring bad foods into your house. A woman should never go under 1200 cals a day by the way, slightly more for a man...very unhealthy. Breakfast= eat like a king, Lunch= eat like a prince, and Dinner= eat like a pauper. Lastly, take a multivitamin each day...go to Whole Foods and ask them which is a really high-quality one, b/c it s not just taking a MV but the better ones dont cheat you on the grams and your body absorbs the vitamins/minerals best. Ask what is a good daily regimen for your gender, but don t let them oversell you. The most you should need is a multi and maybe fish oils.5. Americans in general want things QUICK and easy, we are impatient- you must be patient in terms of your results and never give up. Additionally, this is a LIFESTYLE change for LIFE: There are NOOO get-thin quick schemes, PERIOD. If u abuse your body u will ruin your metabolism and in the future u will gain weight MUCH easier than today. Diet pills will kill you as quickly as they helped kill Anna Nicole Smith. They are no better than drugs so don t take the cheap lazy way out.6. Weigh yourself once a week, never more often than that but get all measurements- waist circumference, body fat %, muscle %, water % (there are good digital scales that do this) b/c u could be gaining muscle which weighs more than fat or be full of water and be like- why the heck wont i lose weight! and then binge on donuts :) no no no! and reward yourself when you make progress! make it fun or else you ll quit sooner than later.7. Drink min. 2 liters of water per day (more for men) and whenever you re stressed- take DEEP BREATHS rather than reaching for food. Breathe in this ratio: Inhale for 5 counts, hold for 20 counts, exhale for 10 counts. If you do 10 of these 3x/day you ll be releasing toxins, decreasing appetite, your energy and vitality will boom. This is why people lose weight doing yoga which on its own doesnt lose many calories. Oxygen is so so important.You can do it! Good luck, keep a positive attitude, and never give up! :)

i like doing the special K diet, look it up online. Everything takes time, make it a healthy loss for your own good :)

Don t listen to any stupid diets,like only eating grapefruits, or tuna fish, etc. The only way to lose weight PROPERLY is to exercise regularly and eat healthy. For a lot of people this is easier said then done. Pick up a copy of your Food Guide, or go online and look at what you should be eating everyday. Go for walks, or runs. Join some sports. Get ACTIVE. Do not turn to starving yourself as this can effect your metabolism which in turn causes weight gain and is completely unhealthy. So exercise, and cut out the junk food and enjoy a healthy lifestyle! Good luck!
