To lose weight fast, you need to have a good diet plan and adhere to eat every meal time. You should know what exactly you have to eat. You can refer to this:http://www.docstoc.com/docs/14244604/How��

Exercise is essential for weight lossIt s nothing new, but exercise is probably the most important predictor of whether you will succeed at long term weight loss and weight loss maintenance. In order for exercise to be helpful in weight loss, you should strive for a minimum of five 30 minute sessions per week. The good news is that recent research has shown that three 10 minute sessions in a day are as good as one 30 minute session. This helps many in combating the old no time for exercise excuse. Be certain to find something you enjoy. You ll be more apt to stick with it. Try walking with a friend, joining an intramural sports league, participating in outings with a group like The Sierra Club, or trying some classes at your local gym. Once you give exercise a chance, you will begin to enjoy its positive benefits on your psyche as well; you will literally become hooked.

Get more fiber. There are many myths about fiber, but there is science to back up its helpful role in the diet. Fiber keeps the right amount of water in your intestines, making your digestive system work more efficiently and helping to keep you regular. Thus, just eating enough fiber may help you feel slimmer in just a day or so. There is also evidence that fiber in the diet can help prevent stroke and heart disease, ease the effects of diabetes, and may even directly help in weight loss.

Stay focused on being healthy, not on becoming thinMany people become more successful at long term weight loss when their motivation changes from wanting to be thinner to wanting to be healthier. Change your mindset to think about selecting foods that will help your body s health rather than worrying about foods that will affect your body s weight. The Food Pyramid offers a basic outline of the types and amounts of food you should eat each day to give your body the nutrients it needs for optimal health.

1 Dietary Balance and reading labels: watch what you eat, and expend more energy than you consume. It��s really that simple. This involves some calculation. The approximate normal daily caloric requirement for an average male who performs light activity is 2,200; for a female, it is 1,900.Do the math. Eat less and eat at least five meals a day. Your actual caloric requirement can differ depending on your height, weight, activity level and your body s metabolic rate.http://knowdiet.blogspot.com/2 Identify your exercise. No exercise was created equal. You might like running, so run. You might like jogging, so jog. You might like stationary bikes, so bike stationary. Find the one that works best for you. Don��t pick a routine that you don��t like and won��t stick with it for long. http://knowexercise.blogspot.com/3 Try yoga. Yoga is one of the best ways of losing weight. Of course I can��t go into a full lecture about yoga over here but I can tell you that I have never seen people with better-toned bodies than those who practice yoga. One of the benefits of yoga is that you learn to control virtually every muscle and joint of your body so that the issue of weight gain will cease to exist.http://knowingyoga.blogspot.com/4 Photos and Joining online support group : Take before and after photos. There��s no easier way to illustrate your progress. It��s essential that you not feel alone, and reaching out to friends helps as they know things that you couldn��t possibly know, and they��ve probably been ��in your shoes�� at some point in the past (or present). Share stories, laughter, tears, successes, and failures. There are thousands of communities out there, so keep looking until you find one that fits you.http://learnfriendship.blogspot.com/5 Water you waiting for If you��re not drinking enough water, your body will let you know. Thirst is an amazing sensation �C quench it. If you��re not hydrated, your body won��t be working at peak levels. If you��re worried about ��water weight,�� remember that you��re likely to retain more water when you��re not giving your body enough of it in the first place. I��m not going to dictate how many glasses you should drink, though �C as that��s going to vary from person to person.http://knowingbody.blogspot.com/6 Zone out. There��s a reason why people exercise to their favorite music �C listening to external stimulus takes your mind off of the physical activity making ��exercise time�� fly or situate yourself in front of TV or video games involving exercises.http://knowingmusic.blogspot.com/7 Sleep it off. To be an efficient fat-burning machine, If you think that you��re doing yourself a favor by sleeping less, you��re mistaken. Give your body time to rest itself, both mentally and physically. Sleep is very, very important. http://sleepnicely.blogspot.com/ 8 Keep a food diary. All you have to do is jot down what, when, and how much you eat in a notebook, or you can do it online at a Web site . A food diary gives a clear picture of your current eating habits so you can identify the changes you need to make to lose weight.http://handlingtime.blogspot.com/9 Be confident and motivated.You need to believe in yourself!. Learn to evaluate your efforts fairly and objectively. If you fail to achieve your target , find out why is it so. After evaluating, look ahead. When you have thought of giving up, visualize how good you will look when you manage to slim down successfully. http://learnconfidence.blogspot.com/http://knowmotivation.blogspot.com/

This is a sketchy one, you re 14 and still growing, so you can t just go on some crash diet. I would advise you to talk to your pediatrician/doctor first. You can always try to just be healthier in your lifestyle. Eat your vegetables, exercise in moderation. Go for walks, ride a bike, nothing too crazy. Health should be your only concern at your age. :)

try to lose wieght by exercising or dieting and eating good or not eating at all

I want to lose weight fast but i still want to eat burgers and all that good food what do you recomend? -

listen you cannot lose weight fast in any healthy way.diet and exerciseyou must burn more calories than you take in.if your running or jogging 10 hours a day you can eat all that stuff otherwise you need to eat less.no soda, drink water

Athletes eat enormous amounts of food due to high exercise regimes. The more you exercise the more you can eat. However the healthier you eat the leaner you will become.

i m not just saying this because you need to eat healthier, but this is so true..... you ve got to get your taste buds used to better food. it s hard at first, but you can train your mouth, your stomach, and your brain to actually like the lower fat, lower calorie foods. it s all about what you have allowed your body to become accustomed to. do it gradually. start by reducing the fat % of your milk gradually until you can enjoy the fat free. if you continue in this way with other foods as well, then before you know it you won t even like the taste of the fattier foods. this really works, I promise. cut back everywhere you see that you can. use no calorie sugar substitutes, drink diet drinks, wheat bread and pasta instead of regular, so on and so on...good luck. YOU CAN DO IT.

Burgers are good tasting, not good for you. Ya can t lose weight fast in a healthy way anyway, and sure are unlikely to do it eating fast food/junk food (I love that stuff too, but it s not conducive to weightloss or good fitness).Eat lean meat/protien, fresh fruits and veggies, whole grain products, healthy fats, and drink lots of water. That s a lifestyle change to get the weight off and keep it off, especially if you pair it with regular exercise.Good luck!

I m in the same boat. I lost weight once before but I gained it back because I got lazy. Anyhow exercise is the key. You usually can eat what you like in moderation as long as you exercise. Get your heartrate up and keep it up for extended periods of time will burn a lot of calories.

I am sick amp; tired from those asking about how to lose weight, folks its easy: eat less amp; exercise more,.? -

People are always hoping for a magic pill or a magic wand. Everyone knows there is one way to do it, but they all want the easy way out. BIENG LAZY IS WHAT GOT YOU FAT IN THE FIRST PLACE PEOPLE!!!!!!!!! Get off you lazy butts and put some effort into it.

Lose Weight by ExercisingIn case you cannot change your eating habits and still want to lose weight, you can surely lose weight with exercising. But it will take much more time for you to lose weight.Steps to follow 1. Decide the time you will give to exercising. 2. Make a decision on your aimed weight. 3. Approximate the amount of weight you must lose the first week. 4. Figure out your main form of exercise- walking, treadmill, running, etc. 5. Do this exercise every day around the same time. 6. Start out slowly, your sessions will get longer as your body adjusts to the exercise. 7. To prevent you from getting depressed, give yourself a small reward at the end of each day (non-food, of course). 8. Move around every chance you get- climb stairs instead of taking the elevator, park in farthest spot in the lot, clean house more. 9. Get a stability ball and bounce or just sit on it (making sure to keep your back straight and abs firm) while watching TV, working at the home computer, etc.Tips of help * Set a target weight for a specific occasion, i.e. a friend s wedding in which you re a bridesmaid. * Drink lots of water. In addition to making fat more soluble, the water provides much needed sustenance to the muscles as they become accustomed to exercise. Choose water that is fortified with minerals like potassium, magnesium and calcium. These minerals, important to maintaining electrolytes in the blood, are depleted from sweating during exercise. They also aid in keeping blood pressure down which is important to any healthy person, especially one embarking on a serious exercise regimen. * Avoid caffeine and diet pill supplements containing caffeine. Although it will often decrease appetite and cause a greater initial weight loss, caffeine merely strips off water weight and dehydrates the body. If you are a coffee drinker, try to gradually reduce your intake or substitute half of your usual coffee grounds with chicory to decrease the overall caffeine per cup. * Lift weights. Adding muscle to your body increases your metabolism, which in turn helps your body s natural ability to burn fat.Things to remember * Don t be too hard on yourself. You won t lose ten pounds the first week. Expect a gradual weight loss. * You will have soreness and muscle aches if you haven t vigorously exercised in awhile. * Don t worry. The more you exercise the more you ll stretch your muscles and the pain will greatly decrease. * You can lose weight just by exercising only if you keep a moderate eating pattern- not a diet, per se, just eat sensibly three times a day with healthy snacks. * Watch for overall body condition changes, not just weight. * Watch for overall body condition changes, not just weight.

B/c its not that easy and just like you people have no clue about what they need to do

Actually if you eat less, your metabolism lowers to a conservative mode. You need to cut back on foods with a high fat content and exercise more.

most people are just lazy and want to try and find an easier way, but the way to do it its like you said. eat not only less, but healthy, plenty of vegetables, cut the breads and sugars out of your diet, no junk food and excercise.

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!

A lot of people truly want to become skinnier but they lack the mindset and resources to do it. They see the healthy food that they now must eat instead of their greasy, fat food, and they complain. They complain during the exercise, and they re upset when the results are not instant. Even then they sneak food that tastes good and is unhealthy for them. It s an addiction they can t stop. Their want to be skinny is not in alignment with what they re doing to make that happen, so it will therefore never happen, until they change that.

ok, so you re tired of it, and..?

i agree. eat, like, one meal a day. thats what i do, and i m plenty skinny now. it s easy...just don t eat a lot. i see too many people shoveling food into their mouths at the mall, and then complain about weight and dont know how they got it. well, uh, duh!!!

Why are people asking you this anyways?

Which will help me lose weight faster? -

Would proper diet and lifting weights be better for losing weight or diet and exercise bike. Those are the options I m considering but if anyone has another idea I m willing to hear it.

Diet and Exercise Bike for losing weightDiet and Lifting weights for gaining muscle.

If you want to lose weight, then healthy eating and exercise are the go. Weights will help tone the body and bike will help burn calories and build endurance. Both are good and will help with weight loss. Walking is also a good exercise. A combination will give variety and make it more enjoyable.

i would suggest you go with the second option... exercise bike lets you burn a lot of calories...where is lifting weight will only built ur muscles...i think u should start with the diet and exercise bike ,, once ur at ur goal then start healthy diet and lifting weights

Having a balanced diet and run for thirty minutes for at least 3 times a week will make u lose and mantain that weight without bouncing back easily

cutting off one of your limbs. that s probably the fastest way. and your hair too.

What are some good low calorie foods that would be good to have to lose weight faster...? -

i am tired of salads and granola bars lol

Reduce your fat intake and have about 1000/1200 calories of the right foods.A healthy diet does not mean starvation or tasteless foods. Yet a corrective diet does not mean either starvation or the grim necessity of eating unpalatable foods. Moreover, a little experimenting in the kitchen will soon produce meals that, from the standpoint of taste and esthetic appeal, will be equal if not superior to, the high-fat dishes to which you are accustomed.You do not have to lose energy��good diet increases vigor. Neither does it mean a loss of energy or a sharp reduction in poundage, unless you are overweight, in which case the excess fat is melted off. In fact, if you adhere to the low-fat, low-cholesterol diet recommended, you will feel better; have more vigor, and firmer muscles than before. If you have a faulty fat metabolism, the diet may substantially prolong your life

You are what you eat try some Lean Kean Cuisine Eat more turkey .Turkey has those smart B vitamins and a good source of lean protein. I love a fresh baked turkey sandwich. Have you tried the NEW Butterball LiL bird? It s small cooks fast and is cheap. I Love this turkey .

celery, bananas or pretty much any kind of fruit (in lower quantities), peanuts (for the protein, which makes you feel more full)

How can i lose weight fast? -

hello :D i wear a size medium-largeish in juniors and i was wondering how to get to extrasmall-small before school starts. it starts around august 28th. its the 9th now. please give me any ideas you have. thanks!

If you are serious about LOSING WEIGHT, have a look at the list of sites.weight--loss-help.blogspot.com/

Pump some iron. Resistance training, (weight training), can help both sexes stay lean by building muscle and raising metabolism. The fact is, hours and hours of aerobic exercise won t help most people lose weight fast because your metabolism drops back to normal fairly quickly after stopping the exercise. If you gain muscle, however, your body s resting metabolism, (the amount of calories you burn when you re just sitting still), increases, because muscle requires a lot of calories to maintain. Studies have shown consistent weight training to raise the body s metabolism by 15%. This means an average woman might burn 200-300 more calories at rest every day! Resistance training is the gift that keeps on giving! Although, keep in mind that muscle mass weighs more than fat (don t be surprised if you gain weight but look slimmer).

How can I lose weight fast? With exercise? -

I m at home all day with nothing to do, and I wanna lose about 20-30lbs, how can I do it? Will exercising a lot work? How about if I go on a stantionary bike for 30mins every like hour?What else can I do? I really need to lose weight and tone up in like 3-4 weeks!Cheers :o)

Hi you! (:Determine your daily calorie intake. Exercise alone won t make you lose weight if you re still taking in more calories than you burn. However emm, eating less and exercising more will only decrease your resting metabolic rate, which accounts for roughly 60-80 percent of daily calorie expenditure. Therefore you should exercise harder and eat more protein dense, clean foods; making your calories burned not too far off from your calories taken in will raise your metabolism and allow you to burn fat effortlessly. Thus, losing the weight at a healthy rate. Write down all the things you eat on a typical day. Carry a small notebook with you and write down every snack, every drink, and the contents of every meal. There are also calorie tracking websites that can help you to do this, for example the US government website, My Pyramid Tracker. Do an itemized calorie count. When possible, write down the number of calories in each thing you eat as you eat it. Keep in mind that the recommended serving size is often considerably smaller than the serving you actually eat. Look up the calorie count on the internet for foods that don t have calories listed on the container or for fast food meals. You don t have to be 100% accurate, but you do want a good estimate of the number of calories you re taking in. Reducing 500 calories per day from the calories you eat to maintain your weight can help you lose a pound of fat per week.Go over the list and decide which foods to cut out or reduce. Look at the nutritional information for the foods you eat, pay special attention to your intake of saturated fats and empty calories (high-sugar foods). You don t need to cut these things out entirely, but if you reduce your intake of high-fat, high-calorie foods you ll lose weight faster. Drink water instead of soda, for example, or use mustard instead of mayo.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. Watch your portion sizes. Opening a bag of rice cakes and eating all of them in one sitting isn t going to help you lose weight. When eating chips, nuts, or dried fruit put a portion in a small bowl and then put the bag away. That way you won t mindlessly eat a larger portion than you had intended. Even if you only make minimal changes to your diet choices, reducing portion size will inevitably reduce caloric intake. A great way to watch portion sizes while snacking is to buy one serving 100 calorie packages - and they come in many favorite snack food items! Drink plenty of water. Adequate water is essential for health, and a great many people simply don t get enough. What s more, if you re chronically dehydrated, your body will retain water in unflattering places, so if you make sure to get plenty of fluids you can start visibly trimming down in as little as a day. Remember, the more you exercise, the more water you ll need.Exercise. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Remember, you can lose weight either by decreasing your calorie intake or increasing the number of calories you burn. Any health strategy should include both, but if you want to lose weight fast, exercise is essential. Perform high-level aerobic activities. Moderate aerobic workouts incorporating jogging, brisk walking, cycling, aerobic machines, or classes not only burn calories -- they also keep your heart healthy. Swimming is also great, especially if you are quite overweight or have joint problems, because you can get the same benefits of running -- typically burning even more calories -- with much less stress on your joints. Try to get at least 30-40 minutes of aerobic exercise at least three or four days per week. Rest properly. Taking 1 or 2 days off exercising each week. it also means getting enough sleep at night, since sleep deficiency impairs your ability to lose fat. Be confident. You need to believe in yourself! If you want to diet, and you know that it will make you feel better, then you need confidence. Otherwise, the temptation to cheat on your diet will make it harder, and you will not feel better when you do lose weight. Avoid temptations like chocolate, ice cream, and cookies.. You need to always encourage yourself to achieve the goals that you have set. Learn to evaluate your efforts fairly and objectively. If you fail to achieve your target for the week, find out why is it so. Is it because you have missed a jogging session? Or you have been eating junk food for one of the days? After evaluating, look ahead to next week and try your best to stick to your plan.Be consistent and disciplined, and have self motivation. To lose weight effectively, you need to stick to your weight loss plan religiously so as to see results. When you have the thought of giving up, visualize how good you will look when you manage to slim down successfully.All the best okay, I know you can do it, if you try your best! Have a great day ahead!

That s a lot of weight in a short space of time! You would have to lose 5lbs a week to lose 20lbs in 4weeks (let alone 30lbs in 3weeks).1lb= 3500calories. So to reach this you would have to burn a whopping 2500calories a day! A healthy weight loss is about 1-2lbs a week (- 500 to 1000 cals a day)Use this website to find your resting metabolic weight (ie. how many calories you burn in a day by doing nothing) http://www.shapeup.org/interactive/rmr1.��Use this website to find calories burnt for specific exercises depending on your weighthttp://www.shapeup.org/interactive/rmr1.��By doing a few calculations you can see that even if you ate nothing (which I really don t advise!) then you would have to do quite a few hours of cycling every day to reach your goal.Sure weight loss is achievable by eating healthily exercising but drastic short-term plans like yours dont work could damage your health.Slow it down!

Its all about calories. If you want to lose weight fast then you have to burn more calories than you are taking in. Being sedentary will not help. Be active while eating low calorie foods. Balanced diet with lots of fiber. Do not starve yourself. Always portion your food intake. Big serving in the morning then taper it until evening. Doing stationary bike is good but keep the intensity up. Walking and running are good alternatives. Jump rope and sometimes, the occassional WII dance is helpful. Always stay focused and always be safe.

If I wanna scale down a cuppah punds I eat cabbage soup and nuffink else for a week: skimmed chicken stock, a whole green cabbage, bit of garlic, carrot, parsley, no salt, peppa, herbs. I make 5ltrs. and have it for lunch, dinnah, suppah. No nuffink else, no puds, pods, carbs no nuffink. It s tasty and filling and a guaranteed wait loss within a week. They use this diet in hospital for patients who have to undergo heart surgery and are a bit on the fatty side up. Occasionally I have some cottage cheese with marmite and Tabasco for breakfast. It s so hot here can t be bovvered to rite proper English. Apologises given and acccepted.Shrinking Violet: should we distill from what you write, that your advice is irresponsible?

Lose weight and tone up in 3-4 weeks , eh...? We all know why that is, don t we...? Because that s when you go back to *SCHOOL*!I DO NOT give dieting advice to kids as I do not wish to be responsible for another ending up in an ED clinic. If you believe yourself to be overweight, then you go to your GP (doctor) and have them refer you to a dietician specialising in helping over weight and obese teens lose weight healthily and safely.

I can t suggest any exercise as you don t go out, but what I can suggest is this that eat more and more fruits and even try replacing them your ordinary meals. They will not increase your weight further rather they will stabilize and decrease it.All depends not on your physical will but on mental will. You have to be tough mentally to be slim. That is the thumb rule.

You can eat a balanced meal three times a day. Drink 64 oz of water and do the bike for 30 min a day, that s all. You can spend your time during the day planning your meals. My clients usually don t have time for that, so I plan meals for them. They lose 2 to 3 lbs per week on a balanced diet with light cardio.

Buy a pilates dvd for toning and muscle strength and invest in a Cross trainer or stationary bike for your cardio.If you are at home all day you should stock your fridge and cupboards with low fat snacks. Boredom is your biggest enemy when it comes to losing weight...and the fridge is too close!!

Well, you don t want to lose wieght to fast, it could be unhealthy. But, you need to eat healthy and get yourself involved in a good, fun, cardio workout.

swimming and cycling

go vegan

why are ya at home with nothing to do? Go out and do something!
