I think part of the key for you is fixing your eating habit. It s great that you don t eat a lot of junk but just having only one meal is working against you. I used to be like you so I think I can advise a little. the problems with eating only once a day is 1. you are usually so hungry by then that you over eat and 2. what you are telling your body is that there isn t enough food. It forces your body to go into a survival mode so that rather than burning the calories and discarding extra it stores everything. This is absolutely what you don t want! Try to get in at least 3 good meals a day with maybe 2 snacks inbetween. So...breakfast at 7? Snack at 10. Lunch at 12. Snack at 2-3 and dinner at 5-6. No snacking after dinner! It s hard to start with but once you get used to it, it works pretty well. This way your metabolism is always working and your blood sugar doesn t spike as bad. Even keel all the way. I would make sure your cardio (bike riding) is at least 3-5 times a week at 30 mins minimum and throw in some light weight lifting 2-3 times a week for good measure. Try to keep your heart rate when you are working out under 170. To find your heart rate just take your pulse for 10 seconds and then multiply by 6. And last but not least....drink water! A lot of the time when our body tells us we are hungry it actually wants water. 8-10 8oz glasses of water a day seems to be the norm for most people. I ve lost 22 pounds this way so far so it works for me but I think maybe you should speak with a nutritionist too. it helps to have support and someone who can point out where you might have goofed and give you solutions to help fix it. There is no short fast way to do this so you ve got a long road ahead of you. Good Luck! PS- 2-3 pounds a week is a safe average. Anything more and you are just losing water weight which will come right back.PPS-Watch out for foods high in sodium too. Salt keeps the water in your body.
Eat only when hungry and not more than thrice a day. Nothing other than water in between. Include plenty of uncooked vegetables and fruits in each meal, preferably 50%. Chew each morsel at least 32 times to activate ur body to generate signals of hunger/fullness. Obey these signals.Take light exercises and brisk walks regularly preferably twice a day.U will achieve what u have not even dreamt and that too in a reasonable time. Do not be in a hurry.
Fasting all day and eating before bed is the worst possible thing in the world you could do if you want to lose weight. You want to eat small frequent meals. Your exercise regimen sounds fine. You should always break a sweat when you exercise. Don t lose the weight too fast or your breasts, stomach and inner thighs will hang. If you lose it slow you should be OK.
Talk with your family doctor about what your healthy weight range should be and have the doctor recommenda nutritionist. Because of your age, you re not looking to grow very much more,if at all.Your Dr. and a nutritionist can help you put a better diet together. You have to learn to change your eating habits. Both the changes will take time.Good luck!
well i would increase my cardio exercises if i were you. Start eating during the day, light snacks if possible. I dont eat anything after 8pm. Schedule a time where you stop eating like i did. Make sure your not just eating and then going straight to bed. Drink plenty of water. Im trying this right now, im also needing to lose weight. Good luck.
You shouldn t stave yourself. Your body needs food for fuel and eating small meals throughout the day help speed up your metabolism. Eat breakfast lunch and dinner with small snacks in between and lots and lots of water. Portion control is key along with EXERCISE....and it sounds like you re on the right track for that. Please remember to eat little meals during the day, not one large one before bed....Anything worth having is worth working for. I m on nutrisystems, day #6 . It s not easy but feeling thin (er) is better than anything can taste.....it s ok to be a little hungry sometimes, but don t starve yourself.
there is no magical way to lose weight. You have to control the amount of calories you consume and exercise. Go swimming, Jog with friends, walk in the park with friends, or go to the Gym or do it all in different days so you can have a variaties of things to do and wont get bored of just one thing. Also look for a partner maybe a friend to support each other and make it fun also. You also have to be patient it might take time to actually lose the weight you want, doesnt happen in just one day. Good Luck.
where your weight is now, you are at the 98th percentile for your age/sex. sounds like you may be binge eating. try eating within a half hour of waking up. at first you probably won t feel hungry but your body will adjust. eat something with protein and then eat every 3 hours or so, small meals to keep your blood sugar stable. do not exceed 2000 calories a day. as for exercise, cardio is good for losing weight. you could buy an exercise tape and follow that in the privacy of your own home (i like denise austin) or jog, starting off at about 15 minutes 3-5 times a week, then increase to a half hour when you feel comfortable with that. once you get into the habit of it, a healthy lifestyle will become part of your daily routine. good luck!! :)
I used to weigh in at 245...now down to 215 three months later and keeps getting better. I ve been using a program from http://bellyfatisnasty.comIt had a great food guide with a bunch of healthy meal plans, and the workouts are probably the best I ve ever done. I ve lost a good portion of my gut.You can stop eating at night by eating more nutritious foods throughout the day with lots of fiber and healthy fats and protein. It stops your cravings. Good luck!
why dont you try eating small protions of food during the day? are you at work or sth? well just carry fruits with you...or vegetables...or just have your lunch at 6.....but not at night...you are killing you!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we should eat our dinner before 7! and you are having your lunch after 7!!!
