There are many sensible things you can do that will make a tremendous difference over the long term if you need to lose weight. It can be done in a healthy way. This is what has worked for me.Keeping a food journal really does help. It will give you a much better sense of how much you are eating, and when, and why.Make a few additional small changes - walk everywhere, always use stairs instead of elevators, walk on escalators, get up and move around at least once an hour if your work or your life in general is sedentary, walk every day, use a pedometer. Walking 10,000 steps a day is a really good idea. Build up to a long brisk walk everyday, or most days. Be more active and watch less TV and spend less time on the computer. Buy one piece of exercise equipment to have at home and be strict with yourself about using it. Sometimes you can find mini-steppers or exercise bikes at second hand stores and thrift stores for just a few dollars.Start a weight lifting routine. Join a gym. Possibly you can find one that has someone who specializes in weight lifting programs for beginners. Weight lifting will increase your metabolism as well as improve posture and appearance overall. Even if you can t get to the gym you can work out at home using things around the house. Invest in a good weight training book. The Dummies series actually has a good one. In terms of diet, cut out or reduce things like junk food, pop, fat, fast food. Eat more fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean meat, fish. Particularly if you choose a vegetarian lifestyle include natural peanut butter, hummus, dried fruit and nuts. Pay close attention to getting the nutrients your body needs to be healthy. Make your portion sizes smaller. Use a smaller plate - in our society we have become accustomed to thinking that we need a large plate of food at every meal, and we don t. About quarter of your plate of food should be protein and at least half of it should be veggies. Learn to count calories. At your current weight and activity level, you may possibly need about 2000 calories or more to maintain your current weight. So you will lose weight at a reasonable and healthy rate if you cut back to about 1600 or 1700 calories a day. Eat small amounts frequently, rather than three large meals. Never skip breakfast. Include some protein in your breakfast. It will help get you through the day.Drink plenty of water, at least 8 big glasses of water a day, and more if it is very hot, if you sweat a lot, or if you are exercising intensely, and eliminate fruit juices. Fruit juices have too many calories, so get your vitamins from fresh fruit, not the juice. You will begin to see changes in your body. Check out websites about nutrition, exercise, weight training, etc. Here are a few helpful links.http://www.nutrawatch.com/http://www.caloriesperhour.com/http://www.helpguide.org/life/healthy_ea��http://www.wikihow.com/Lose-Weight-the-H��http://weightloss.about.com/cs/fitness/a��http://www.webmd.com/fitness-exercise/fe��
Well, losing weight THAT super-fast isn t healthy, and it any weight that you do lose will be water-weight, which is easily gained back.But, I m a girl. I know how you feel. If you must lose this weight super-fast without damaging yourself, do a cleanse, or else eat only raw foods and water until then. That will get rid of all the water-weight, and you will still be able to eat and get the much-needed nutrients your body needs. Be forewarned, though: once you go back to a normal diet, you will gain at least a bit of the weight back, if not all. However, if you want to lose weight for the long-term, this is a great place to jump-start it! Especially if you just eat raw foods until next Tuesday: your taste-buds will change, and you will find yourself not craving sweet and salty foods as much (those are often the ones that get us in trouble!) and it will be easier to put those good things in your body. Just remember to balance it out.Good luck!
Hi,I don t think you are a cow at all!Round is a shape and weight is just a number.There s a website that has been around for quite awhile claiming that you can lose 9lbs every 11 days by following their calorie shifting diet but I really don t think that would be good for you so I am not goin to share that here.However, there s this other report that I chance upon that maybe beneficial for you. I enjoyed reading it and thought you might too.It s a free report and can be downloaded athttp://tummyfatnomore.com/TrainingNutrit��
I am in the same boat! Don t do anything crazy and starve yourself. What s really worked for me is cutting my calories in half. Example: I used to eat 2000-2500 calories a day and now I eat 1300-1500 calories a day and have lost 18 lbs in 5 weeks. And also exercising is Key, even if its just for 20 minutes a day. I take my dog for a 20 minute walk and do some crunches every day. Hope that helps!
First of all what makes you think it ll be you looking like a freaken cow? Heck, they may look like freaken cows. It s 2009 and bigger is better. I m 5 7 and weigh 260 lbs and my husband, friends, and kids bet not say a word. I M FINE WITH IT! I feel like people are TOO concerned about how they look to others than how they feel about themselves. Boo, go and ENJOY YOURSELF! Nobody will notice.
