How much weight to lose? -

How much weight can I lose and how should I do it? Following are some details:BMI - 26Height - 5 7Weight - 165Are there any weight loss programs that I should join or should I just lose weight on my own, also, how many calories should I have in one day?Thanks a lot

to lose weight u need to eat right and have a workout plan 5-6 days a week.u have to want it. ***try this u need to change ur diet. eat six times a day. ea of ur 3 main meals needs to combine a lean protein such as chicken breast ground turkey turkey bacon egg whts also combine that with a complex carb such as a baked potato or sweet potato wild rice brown rice oatmeal or girts. also add fresh fruit and vegies to lunch and dinner. pick fruits low in sugar like pears and berries. if u get canned vegies get ones with low sodium. eat every 3-4 hrs keep ur metablism moving.***also the most important part is WATER drink at least 64oz. no soda or juice. water will curve ur cravings. u need to hit cardio 3-4 times a week running outside it great workout if u can hit a gym and cardio machine is great at least 30mins***also add weight/strength training 3 times a week.u can google free weight traning guides anywhere. its not hard to find things for free.***plan ur meals ahead of time.always have a healthy snack with u so u wont be tempted to eat fast food. also if u wait to late to eat u will get so hungry u will eat the world. make time to work out start out with 30 mins then increase.its ur body treat it right. ur diet alone can help lose weight but working out makes ur body look good. shows muscles and tight skin which is sexy and beautful. stick with it ur body will amaze u!!! to be healthy and look great u need both in ur life. good luck email me if u have further questions

We re pretty much in the same boat. I m 5 5 and 155 lbs. I ve recently bought this book called You on a Diet So far it s pretty interesting, it tells about how the body reacts to food and how everything works in your body. I would suggest it to anyone who is trying to lose weight. I use to work with a Dietician and she figured out for me that I should limit my calories to about 1500/day to lose about 2 lbs a week. So it s probably about the same for you.

You should lose 10-45 pounds to put you at a healthy weight
