How to lose weight and not gain muscle? -
I m 5 3 or so and 135 ib. I m not exactly fat, but more curvy. The problem is that whenever I eat healthy and exercise to lose weight, I just gain muscle and because of that, gain weight. What are some thing I can to do keep my weight down without exercising for like hours a day?
This sounds really pathetic...but...? -
i think im eating my feelings. seriously, not cool!i recently broke up w/ my boyfriend and i ve been really upset ever since.. i ve realized everytime i start thinking about him i eat even if im not hungry. :/i want to loose @ least 20 pounds. i have a pooch and i seriously don t like it!if i do crunches, jumping jacks, and leg lifts everyday, will i loose weight? or just get toned up? how many calories will i burn if i do it for like an hour?any more weight loss tips?
you should go running around your neighborhood in the mornings for half an hour or so. :] that and eating well will take lots of weight off over time.mine?: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;�� :D
Losing weight is all about the diet you could exercise for an hour a day but if your diet is bad you wont lose a thing. try eating 5-6 smaller meals (cutting back on the carbs) and if you want a snack, eat something healthy... example :breakfast : porridgemid morning : apple/fruitdinner : small chicken saladmid afternoon : left over dinnertea : fish and vegdont gorge on chocolate/sweets/bread/cheese ect in fact dont eat any...Use the fact that your free and single as a reason to reach your goals not because of an ex...there loss not urs...when you have your diet sorted out join a gym... tell the staff/pt`s who work there your goals and they will write you a program, usually free...you should lose between 1-3 lb per week so set a date and try and meet your target..hope this helps good luck....
it doesnt sound pathetic... some people eat because they re sad all the time and don t even realize it...if you want to lose weight...i heard that if you do 50 crunches in the morning and at night...everyday...you will lose weight...and if you re still sad..and you re gonna eat something...maybe you should try a granola bar or fruit...something that s not high in calories
if you re really interested in losing weight, cardio is the way to go. running i mean. if you so all that other stuff, all will get is tone and maybe like 5 pounds in weight loss. cardio will help you lose weight and tone up.eating healthier and only when hungry would really help too
If you are looking for easy diet method, you can use my method. I lost 12 pounds in one month. If you are serious about diet you need to have a look this method. It is easy if you know right info to do diet. You can find more info from http://bit.ly/51fdhe
When you get the urge to eat when your not hungry eat something fruit not junk food.
you should go out for a jog for like 30-60 minutes every day and eat healthy
No guys like fat chicks.
ohh wow. idk .. i dont work out
Talking to a counselor might help you get over the urge to eat when you get sad about him. Belly dancing is a great way to lose weight, get in shape, and gain confidence because you will be super sexy! See if there are classes in your area. Kickboxing is another good one. When you feel like just eating, have vegetables. You can pretty much eat all you want, just don t use dressing or use VERY LITTLE. Make sure you get a lot of protein. Take your weight in pounds, divide it by 2, and that is how many grams of protein you are recommended to get per day. It s hard! See if you can even get half that much. Drink green tea--no sugar, you can use a little honey if you need to but eventually you will acquire a taste and be able to drink it straight. It speeds up your metabolism and has a lot of L-Theanine in it, which makes you feel relaxed and good. Taking a B-vitamin can also improve your mood and speed up your metabolism. I ve heard the best way to just drop weight is by running. Make sure you ease into it though and don t overdo it. I hope some of these help. I m sorry things are tough right now. *hug* Best of luck!
Does anyone know how to lose weight quickly, but not so quickly that you gain it all back? -
I have been struggling with my weight for over a year, and I keep going up and down. Diet pills do not work, diet drinks (the kind that guarantee faster metabolism) do not work, and diets in general do not. I am vegan, which may complicate things (you can t get much healthier), but I do not exercise as much as I should. I m basically looking for some tips, or exercise programs that have worked for you. Buddies are accepted as well. =) Anything will help, thanks.
Well, first of all as a fellow vegan you want to make sure you re not just carb loading. Eat raw nuts, beans, veggies like spinach, mushrooms, onions, carrots, root vegetables. Eat brown rice rather then white rich, whole wheat grains, etc.However, I want to make sure to point out, weight fluctuation is normal. Humans simply fluctuate naturally within their weight from three to five pounds to as much as ten pounds sometimes. Also, you might be constantly shifting to a certain weight because that is your natural healthy body weight. You shouldn t focus so much on keeping weight down unless you are in an unhealthy weight category.All that aside, the key here is going to be consistent exercise. I will give you one tip, and refer you to a really great website http://zenhabits.net/tags/health-tip-day/My tip is, to get a big year on a page calender and a red magic marker. As big as possible. Now, set your two rest days for the week. Put big red X s in those days for the whole calender. Now, whenever you exercise for the day, give yourself a big red X. Humans are funny creatures, and simple little motivation tricks can sometimes really help us. Once you start building up a chain of those red X s, you won t want to stop. You won t want to not exercise because you ll want to give yourself a red X. Try it. it works out real well.good luck,Ben
what i think is exercise it takes and average person 21 days to break a habbit so exercise everyday and in 21 days it will be normal to you also i think being a pescitarian because you dont eat meat but you can eat fish and fish is good =]=]=]=]
diets dont work. if they do they fck up ur body. nobody should ever do them (like diet programs)you could try-eating only brunch-excercise every morning(like less than 30 but more than 5 min)-dont be lazy-drive less, bike/walk more..iunochange in diet? (not meat, but different variety of veggies)
being a vegan is not that healthy. If you also need to lose weight that is alarming, since that type of diet is already like poison.
How to lose weight from butt and thighs? -
How to lose weight from butt and thighs?I tend to carry my excess weight in my lower half (pear shape) and I am finding it incredibly difficult to lose anything from that area. The weight comes off well from my waist and arms, but never from my legs, hips, or derriere. I really want to tone up but this is very discouraging...any advice? Thanks.
I have the same body shape, and the same problem. Everyone so far has told me that you can t spot reduce, and to just up my cardio either in intensity or length. I m going to star your question though, hopefully someone has some good advice for you (us! lol)
Contrary to popular belief, you can t target weight loss. If you eat right, and exercise enough you will eventually lose weight from your lower body. You could also try exercising your legs more to add definition and make them appear to have gone down in size.
what, oh hello there!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ye8_DSQ-y��
How to lose weight fast in a week or two??!?!!? -
omg its so hard not to eat but im trying to slow my meals down and not eat as bad and as much. i exercise almost every day doing sports and everything but is there anything i can do? I really want to lose about 8 pounds but its so hard because when im hungry my stomach takes over my mind and i usually dont stop it and i eat :D but i dont want to... so is there any tips or anything ? tyyy
Drink a lot of water. When you get that craving drink down some water and that will fill up your stomach for the time being. When you eat don t eat until you are full, that is what is hard for me but it works, then drink water and you will be fine. Eat small meals around 6 times a day. Good luck
just know that you CAN eat. just dont eat a lot of anything. salads are rly good, water ofcourse, its like no calories. people drink over like 500 calories a day, water is 0 calories, so thats already like, 500 calories out of your system, which adds up quickly, ya know...lolthe rubber band thing works, but for lunch if ur still in like school, i thinhk ur...just pack your own lunch. you should try peaches, they r rly sweet but still rly good. fruit is rly good for you to, and dont feel guilty if you eat a donut, or a bagel, or stuff, as long as you dont overdo it. excercising is great too
Wear and elastic band on your wrist, every time you feel hungry snap it. Your mind will associate snacking with hunger quite quickly. The healthier option would be to have a minute snack when you feel hungry. If you feel hungry within an hour, ping the elastic band.
I am going to try this starting today! I am going to be eating 1 salad a day and drinking lots of water. Everyone that I have ask here where I live has told me that you can lose15 lbs. in a week so I thought why not give it a try and see 3 Email me if you have any questions!
When you feel hungry, you probably are hungry. Don t starve yourself, because you ll become weak. Eat good snacks/meals, and not junk food. Fruits and veggies are good snacks.
How to lose weight fast but healthy? -
I m fifteen years old and over the summer, I ve gained weight. I m far from fat but I wouldn t mind losing a little weight on my thighs and stomach because cheerleading season is coming up and the uniforms show your stomach. Any suggestions to losing weight in a fast but healthy manner? :)Thanks!
Try this, you ll see and feel results in 2-3 days. The muscle will outweigh the fat so don t let the scale discourage you :)For exercise, try switching it up (Monday work on arms, Tuesday work on stomach, Wednesday work on legs, Thursday Rest, Friday Arms, Saturday Stomach, Sunday Legs) though you can choose your own schedule/plan. Try maybe using different machines for stomach or legs or arms so your body doesn t get used to it. Also, try increasing the amount of exercise you do every week.For eating, try portion control (70% of your diet is food intake but exercise is also important) eating the serving size and if there is no designated serving size, 1cup if it s a meal and 1/2 a cup if it s a snack.Breakfast- Whenever you chooseDrink of choice- hour after breakfast (all other drinks being water; one cup of drink of choice)Lunch- 1hr after Drink of choiceSnack- 1/2 cup, 1 hour after lunchDinner- 2 hours after snackIt doesn t matter WHAT you eat unless you re on a specific diet such as Atkins, it s mostly just How MUCH we take in and how OFTEN we take it in. I have problems with over-eating and I ll eat an ice cream, oh I want another and it s not b/c I m hungry it s b/c I have a craving for it and it feels like I can t wait. Also, eating out of boredom, try drinking water often to prevent hunger. I also have this problem and especially when I m exercising. (Try buying a treadmill or a few exercising supplies or maybe you can get a gym subscription) and bring with you in an insulated glass/mug full of ice b/c I always and alot of other people always want a little something to feel like their eating or munching on and this is perfect b/c it s hydrating and you get the little munch out of it.Also, how I said about buying some equipment or gym subscription, I d recommend you buy your own that way you pay a little extra and the rest is free not 1/2 the price every month or whatever. Try buying about the things (one for legs, one for stomach, one for legs and maybe as you get more into, you could add more). Also, if you lift weights try increasing the amount of weight each weeks or two. :)Hope this helps! Good luck!Also, calculate your intake so you know how much to work towards burning plus extra for the muscle :)I m twelve and this has always worked for me b/c I have a fat gene and I always maintained my weight and lost it if I got off track :)
- Try not eat after a certain hour. Example: don t eat after 7 p.m. or something. I did that and lost a few pounds. - Drop a fatty food that you usually eat; that could be the problem.- Make sure you re not skipping meals.- Eat suggested proportions, so read food labels. - Add exercise into your diet if you haven t already.Good Luck!

How to lose weight without going on a diet? -
i know this may seem like a stupid question but i want to lose weight, without a going on a diet plan. i m 13 and i feel overweight. is there anything i can do? please help me. i want to be able to go swimmimg and be confident about my body.
Don t try Acai Burn or any other SCAM acai or colon cleanse companies!It s a SCAM! THERE ARE SPAMMERS GOING AROUND HERE POSTING THEIR PRODUCT!!!!I didn t lose an ounce!I signed up for their 30 day free trial and paid the S H $5.95. I got the first bottle. One month later they charged me $59.95. I guess the fine print stated that by getting the free trial I would be enrolled in a program where they automatically send you a bottle and charge $59.95. I never even got the 2nd bottle. I heard all of the acai and colon cleanser companies work this way.
You can definitely lose weight without going on a diet. .You don t have to follow a strict diet to get the ball rolling; making these easy but effective changes really can help you lose weight.First you have to Learn to Read Labels:To lose weight it is essential to pay attention to food labels. Counting calories is impossible without this skill. You should know how to find a food s caloric content and its serving size. Comparing labels among different foods and beverages is crucial for making the healthier choices required to lose weight. Second you must Snack Smart:You can help prevent overeating and maintain blood sugar levels by eating something about every three hours. Getting too hungry will backfire on your efforts to eat healthy and practice portion control. Aim for a healthful, satisfying snack, such as an apple and some reduced-fat cheddar cheese. Eating more may seem counterintuitive, but smart snacking will help you lose weight.The third thing you can do is Eat More Grains and Produce:Whole grains and fruits and veggies do more than provide nutrients that improve your health and reduce disease-risk; they can also help you lose weight. They re naturally low in calories, so you can eat more of them and have less room in your diet for less-than-healthful foods. Plus, the fiber in whole-grain foods and produce will help you feel fuller longer (which helps you control portions and avoid overeating) and as a result, lose weight.The fourth thing is Eat Enough, Often Enough:One of the worst ways to lose weight? Meal skipping. Many people think skipping meals is a great way to cut calories, but in the end, they fail to lose weight. You ll be more likely to overeat or even binge (when you finally do eat) if you do not eat regular meals. Plus your body may go into starvation mode if don t eat enough, causing you to maintain (or even gain) rather than lose weight!The fifth thing is to drink Plenty of Water:Water helps you lose weight in several ways: If you tend to have a problem with water weight, drinking more water can help alleviate bloating. Replacing high-cal drinks such as soda with water cuts hundreds of calories. You shouldn t wait until you re feeling thirsty to drink water; thirst can be mistaken for hunger, causing you to overeat. Proper hydration improves your sense of well-being, which will keep up your motivation to lose weight.The sixth thing is to get Moving:It is virtually impossible to lose weight and keep it off without exercising regularly. Start out today by taking a brisk walk or riding a bike. Work your way up from 10 minutes to 30-40 minutes a day, most days a week, and you could reap health benefits and weight loss results in a matter of weeks. Plus, exercise boosts your metabolism, making it even easier to lose weight.The seventhing thing is to practice Portion Control:Measuring food may seem like a drudgery, but it will prove invaluable in your efforts to lose weight. Start out by comparing a measured standard serving of foods to your typical helping. You may find you usually consume two or even three times the recommended serving. In time you will reprogram your brain to eyeball portion sizes, a key skill for losing weight.The last step is to Write it Down:What s the first thing I think anyone who wants to lose weight should do? 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 like Calorie Count Plus. A food diary will give you a clear picture of your current eating habits so you can identify the changes you need to make to lose weight.hope this helps
1 Water blast - I love cold water. Drinking water is the number one tip for losing weight fast. Everyone should consume at least half the ounces of their own weight. For example: My weight is 142 pounds, so I should drink at least 71 ounces of water daily, which is half of my weight.Make sure the water is pure without toxins. Spring water is a great choice. The more water you can drink the better. Experts recommend drinking between 6-8 glasses daily, but everyone s body is different. Overweight people should drink according to their body weight to make sure they get enough.
-Do a cardio exercise when you get up in the morning like walking or running (this jump starts your metabolism and you ll feel more energetic throughout your day)-eat a healthy breakfast (like whole grain cherios), dont skip it or i promise you ll never have lasting results...-there s this exercise that you can do to burn stomach fat (and work your obliques), you stand up, put our arms out and twist side to side using your stomach muscles to stop yourself each time you twist. do this for about 3-5 minutes a day (or more if you want to loose weight faster)-chew extra gum-if you have trouble loosing weight, you can buy dietary supplements such as green tea, cinnamon, chromium, and super-B complex (this one helps convert food into energy and works the best)... they boost your metabolism and help you loose weight, and can be found at walmart or walgreens... you can google search for more supplements if you want...
well you can try these, I ve had no complains about it so it s worth a try watch the infomercial here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dI-rAksodcUor http://www.metacafe.com/watch/3158668/lose_weight_and_make_money/
it is actually that easy to do. but you have to keep on fighting it, and try eating less, i learned a few good tricks from this guys blog about losing a few pounds. http://loseweightburnpounds.blogspot.com
Get more exercise. if you burn more calories than you take in you will lose weight (if you don t have any metobolic problems.) Go running or take up a sport. try for 30 minutes 3 times a week.

Weight loss tips? -
I am 14 and 200 lbs. I know I am in despreate need of some weight loss, but diets just seem so hard to stick to with school. I have so much homework and other things for the clubs I m in and I have almost no time to exercise. Any good ideas? And please don t just say something mean... I m self-conscious enough as it is!
Sweetie, I feel your pain. I am old enough to be your mom now but I was a heavy child growing up. My mother I joined Weight Watchers the summer before I started 9th grade and I lost all my weight. After the weight came off I was so active all throughout school with roller skating (yes, I know I m dating myself here), dancing, walking the mall, etc. that I didn t focus on food and I easily kept the weight off. I focused on fun and sharing good times with my friends. After school when I went to work sitting at a desk full-time I wasn t as active slowly started gaining again. It has been a lifetime struggle for me so I know a few tips to help you. First of all, most schools now offer healthy choices in the lunch line. If they don t, bring something from home. A simple sandwich - turkey, light mayo, a little mustard, lettuce, tomato, low-fat cheese on wheat bread and a piece of fruit is simple, fast and very filling. When you get home you can have Lean Cuisine, Healthy Choice, or Weight Watcher meals for dinner. They are really good easy to make. If you are like I was and hurrying out the door in the mornings to make it to school on time (I hardly ever did but that was back in the big hair days) just grab a slim-fast bar or shake. I know this sounds hard but if you make your mind up to do it you will do it. Weight loss is 90% mental and 10% physical. Just make one small change. Start very small. When you make the change it will encourage you to keep going. When you start feeling good about yourself you ll probably find time to start walking because you ll have more energy. I know you can find 10 minutes. I have 3 kids and I can do 10 minutes! Build from there. Try to see it as a change of lifestyle rather than a diet. A diet is something you go on or get off of. A lifestyle is a choice. It s a change. Make that change NOW! You have your whole high school years to look forward to. Don t dread them. Enjoy them. It s all up to you! God bless you give you strength on your journey sweetie!
Get into an after school activity, or ask your parents to get a basketball hoop. Substitute sports or activities for sitting on the couch really helps.
