Weight loss tips and breast feeding? -

my son is 8 days old today (born by emergency c-section at 37 weeks). i am currently formula feeding and pumping (i don t have enough milk for exclusive breast feeding). i would like to start getting back in shape. i drink plenty of water, and am starting to watch what i eat better (the past few days, i admit, i have not been eating well (healthy)!)i don t want what little milk i have to dry up, so i m trying to not restrict calories to much. i am walking as far as i can stand to right now, which i can now walk much further now that the staples are out (got them out yesterday!).what tips do you have for continued breast feeding/pumping and trying to loose weight?thanks

Do not restrict calories at all. Eat healthy, but eat when you re hungry and allow yourself treats. Don t worry about losing weight until after your six week checkup. By then I d lost all the weight, but I was definitely not the same shape. I started exercising at that point and things are going well so far.Breastfeeding will make you hungrier than you were when you were pregnant (at least it did me) and it s important that you eat as much as you need.

Not sure don t have any babies yet.

It is much to early for you to be worried about this. Focus on taking care of yourself and your baby right now. Nursing burns about 500 calories a day so keep that up and you will be surprised how the weight comes off. You need the calories to keep your milk up so don t restrict eating. Get some sleep and enjoy that baby, the weight will take care of itself as long as you are patient.

You need to wait until after your 6 week check up to diet and exercise.

I gained 5 pounds in 2 days? -

My weight limit is 180 max. I m at 175. Should i be worried. And yes i weighted myself in the morning. Im usually around 168ish. With only a few days left till I head to meps then Basic training AF; any quick weight loss tips just in case it gets to that point. I guess im getting nervous and eating like crazy i dont know.

Don t bend your elbows.Drink at least 2 quarts of water a day and run. Don t eat anything for the next few days except fruit.

Don t worry about it. If you do happen to pass the weight limit by a few or on the dot they ll measure your weight mass and if it passes 5% your done though.For example the weight limit for 5 8 is 150 but this guy is 5 8 and hes 200 pounds but hes all muscle and no fat.Basically they measure your fat and muscle percentage if your over your weight limit.

Hey what s up Ryan. I m also leaving for the Air Force in a few months. When you go running and exercising be sure to wear a couple a shirts plus a long sleeve shirt so you can sweat big time. It may sound a little extreme but make sure when you work out you sweat as much as possible. You should be fine though, because even if you tip the scale at like 181 they will do a body fat meaurement. Holla back at me

go to wal-mart and buy a sauna suit and run a couple miles, you can lose 4 to 5 pounds of water weight in one run, worked for me

Don t worry. eating salty food or even a lot of red meat will do that. Drink a little more water, lay off the steak and you ll be fine.

Start eating healthier and start to work out a lot more

You will be fine.. do not change anything you are doing! you may honestly just need to go #1 or #2! that s all man! don t worry about it

Go on a strict protein diet with no carbs. You will lose more than you gained

Weight loss tips/help? -

I am going to be trying to lose 20 pounds by the end/mid of June, so in order to do that, I need to lose about 2 pounds a week. I know this is doable as I know people who have done it (through the atkins diet which I think is a bit too unhealthy for my liking). I am just curious if anyone knows how many calories I should be eating per day. I weigh 138 and am 5 4 (female). I have already cut white bread and sugars out but I just want to know if anyone has any additional tips that will help or any specific exercises that will help. Also, is there anything I should incorporate into my diet?Any help would be appreciated!

Here are a few tips;WHEN to eat for losing weight... ? Eat (at least) three times a day. Because when you eat only once a day, your metabolism gets slower than it already is! That s the main reason. Sounds funny, but to lose weight... you must eat (the right things, of course) ? Eat low-fat, high-fiber foods such as salads and vegetable pastas.? Your last meal should be before 18:00. Try. OK, one apple after 18:00 ? Don t starve Starvation is not good for losing weight, nor your health. Starvation is the worse thing you can do in a weight loss diet. ? Try oatmeal instead of cornflakes for breakfast--eating oatmeal can help reduce cholesterol levels, and its high fiber content will keep you full longer.WHAT to drink for losing weight... ? Drink 6-8 glasses of water every day ! Can be tap, plain, mineral, sparkling. I just love mineral sparkling water! This improves your bowel, reduces the hunger sensation, and hydrates your skin. Your skin will look much better after the first weeks! Don t believe the slogan water makes me fat . Beside being stupid... you might get into serious troubles with your kidneys. ? Drink ONLY natural juices, freshly squeezed! Don t drink Coca Cola, Pepsi, Spite etc. during the diet. Even lite or light versions. Exercise for losing weight... ? If you want quicker results - exercise would be good. ? Don t just sit in front of the TV and eat peanuts... I guarantee THIS won t work for your weight loss... ? Start a regular exercise program and stick with it. Don t be afraid of those sweat suits and Lycra pants! ? Start swimming. Swimming is an excellent exercise to get involved with, since it increases blood flow and uses muscles we don t regularly use. Start a swimming program and try to do it 3 times a week. You will feel excellent and rejuvenated.? Choose an exercise program that you enjoy, and don t shun the unconventional. For instance, did you know that regular vigorous dancing is exercise too?? Also Cardiovascular exercises such as running, jogging, or aerobics will help you lose that unwanted belly fat. Weight training can also help you lose body fat because the more muscle mass you have, the more ability your system has to burn body fat.Good luck!Hope this helps~

the best and easiest thing to do is when ur at home and on the phone walk around the yard not to slow and ull get a good workout by 3 ten minute conversations. also id eat around 1300 calories a day. and jog an hr on days off

Read this article by Bethany Roberts called Top Ten Tips for Weight Loss http://www.weightlossfatloss.us/ten_weig��

Weight loss became a permanent drag for me until I used acai berry. I know they say that pills do not work, but they definitely worked for me, and they ve been showcased on CBS News too. There is a free trial going on currently at http://kinaracs.niar.tv, try it , what is the worst that could happen?

i do the no white diet. anything that is white i don t eat nothing with flour and sugar.

You need to eat more than 1000 calories a day...at least 1200.

Teen weight loss tips...? -

Im fourteen and very active. Im 5 8 and now 147, which i hae never been this heavy, which is making me seriously depressed. I would think being so active would not make me gain weight, but i want to loose about 25 pounds. I know it is bad but ive tried not eating and that doesnt seem to work either. please give me some tips.please help

the acai berry thing is just an ad by the company... ignore it.Not eating doesn t work because then your body goes into what s called starvation mode and when you finally do eat your body stores it all as fat and doesn t burn it. I d suggest eating 5-6 small meals throughout the day to keep your metabolism going so less food is stored as fat. Don t eat lots of sugars or salts, and make sure your diet is balanced. Cutting out whole food groups won t help. Fruits and veggies instead of sweets, lightly salted nuts instead of chips. A lot of times your body can confuse thirst with hunger, so stay hydrated. Keep a bottle of water with you at all times. You ll have to pee a lot, but it s worth it.As for excercise- cardio is key for burning fat. Running, dancing, swimming, etc. Once you have burned the fat, you can focus more on toning through weight training and ab excercises.Remember- your young and may be going through a growth spurt, so no crazy diets or anything okay? Just try to live a healthier life style, its the only way to lose weight and keep it off. Good luck!! ( =

Please dont listen to the bullshit people are telling you. I ve seen the same acai berry comment and p90x **** on like 352352346246 questions already. Just drink alot of water like 2 glasses for every meal drink green tea like 3 times a day go running for like 45 minutes a day. I Suggest going to the gym or joining one and lift light weights to get tone and boost metabolism. Im telling you that soon you will be very fit. And dont eat any junk food at all just good things dont forget breakfast really is the most important meal of the day. I also suggest eating 4-5 small meals a day and chew as much as u possible can. Loosing weight can be hard but the trick is eat right and sweat sweat SWEAT.

Stick your hand in the back of your mouth and throw up every 4 hours.

eat breakfastotherwise, your body goes into starvation mode and stores as much as it can

Weight Loss tips HELP? -

I am 14 about 185 and 5 feet 11 inches or so. on a normal week i go to jujistu class 2 times for 2 hours and on every other day i work out on the bag and basic stuff for about 1 hour.What kind of foods should i eat and what kind of foods should i stay away from.

I have been through it all and know what s it about. The main thing is to stick in there. You can t be an addict to food and never exercise if you want to live a healthy life and keep the weight off. I ve worked out, done every diet, and all types of classes.Nothing works, besides dedication and intelligence towards the subject of losing weight.First, depending on how much weight you need to lose, your diet is the first concern. You can t eat 10,000 calories a day and expect the weight to come off, even if you are exercising a lot. Which brings us to the next thing. Duh, Exercising...This is a must especially if you need to a lot of weight. Get at least 30 mins of some good hardcore exercising. Do some cardio, in the long run, it s good for the heart.However, I find the most hardest part of losing weight/keeping it off, in my diet. It s so hard to keep your fingers out of the cookie jar or those chocolate goodies. I ve found a great addition to help any one out, it s a natural weight loss supplement called Proactol. Now don t get all crazy on me and say diet pills don t work. That is true, but not in this case. This one isn t meant to burn pounds while you sit on the couch. It s an appetite suppressant, along with being a fat binder. I saved money on the pills at theweightlossplace.com along with getting some good info. It basically makes those fingers not go towards the cookie jar. For me it s the best pill I ve tried and I ve tried cupboards full. Now this doesn t mean you have to follow my foot steps but I ve successfully lost roughly 70 pounds and keeping it off til this day.Well good luck and remember what I said, Dedicate.

You can lose weight if you did right method. I tried many method, but could not lose weight. I found the best method that works very well for anyone. I lost my weight easy using this weight loss method. You must have look right information that works. I lost 17 pounds after 8 weeks with this weight loss method. I highly recommend you. You can get more information from link below.

Eat foods with protein to help build muscle!

HelloFirst, I understand where you re coming from. My name is Mary and I am posting this because I know what it��s like to be over weight and feel your life spiraling out of control. I was almost 360 pounds, struggling with my health and looking for a way out. Seriously, I would have done almost anything to make a change in my life. And I did, with very little success. Pills, therapy, even working out were getting me nowhere.No matter what I tried I never really saw a change because I could not stop my love of eating. It��s so hard for people to understand when they haven��t faced this struggle. Everyone just says that you have to will power. But if you are like me, you know there is much more to it.I realized I was holding my life in my hands and I made the decision to find a way out of my self-inflicted nightmare. After years of struggle and countless nights studying the ins and outs of exercise science I finally stumbled onto a Fat Loss program that caused me to lose 143 pounds and still allowed me to enjoy the foods I love. This is nothing like what you have done before. Fat Loss program changed my life and I could not believe just how easy it was.I want you to discover the key that turned my life around.For more information please visit:http://tiny.cc/rKKnOGood Luck,-Mary

First, 148 isn t so fat . If you re 5 7 or higher, it s actually normal.However, this diet:Make sure you drink lots and lots of water, green tea, and coffee (not too much sugar, tho!)Lots and lots of fresh veggies. I don t care what your diet says, these are GOOD!Good carbs: whole wheat bread, whole wheat noodles, brown rice, or potatoes... but limit these, as they are starches and fill you up fast.Meat, nuts, and beans are necessary, too... fish is very, very healthy... but these should also be limited to maybe one portion every two days.Milk, yoghurt, cheese, and butter... are good, but I d keep it down as much as possible. If you count calories, try to keep it under 1700... and as you lose weight, lessen the calories until they re about 1500 (but not less!)Exercise!!!!! Walk instead of drive, or bike. Swimming is probably the best exercise for your entire body. Dancing is a lot of fun, so are other sports, if you re a sport person. Your body needs to burn calories to lose lbs. Have FUN with it... maybe do your diet with a friend so you don t cheat ... and don t obsess with it. 148 isn t all that bad! :-)Good luck!

Make sure you eat breakfast - most important meal of the day and it jump starts your metabolism. Eat six small meals during the day like this: Breakfast, snack, lunch, snack, dinner, snack. Eat lean meats like chicken with skin removed, (white meat only), fish, lean beef, cottage cheese is a really great protein also (1%) Eat lots of vegetables and at least 3 fruits per day. Avoid potatoes, white bread and sugar. Drink at least 8 glasses of water per day. Try going for a walk every day at a brisk pace for at least 30 minutes.

Yea i can help you drink lots of water and this might sound weird lol but checking if your pee is dark and light is something you should do if its light your drinking enough water and should keep at it to lose more weight and if its dark you need to drink some more and more till it turns light it really helps and keeps you healthy=]

first of all quit complaining your fat your fat.. wahhh wahh.. you you have a little bit extra whatever.. eat healthy, exercise, drink 8-10 cups of water a day. once you get out of the pitty me i m so fat stage. then you can start thinking for the better and lose weight! now if you were 299 lbs like some people then you can say ur fat!

well first of all what kind of diet are you on?
