This is my theory and this is what works for me. Everyone is different so it may need to be adjusted to your own personal needs.Energy In/Energy OutFood Intake: 1,200 Per DayOne Pound equals 3,500 CaloriesTo loose one pound per day, You need to burn your food intake plus your one pound of fat1,200 (intake) + 3,500 (Outtake) = 4,700 Calories BurnYou must burn at least 4,700 Calories everyday to loose one pound at least. It is very easy to go up and beyond 4,700 calories each day.Best way to do this is to track your progress on a calorie counter monitor watch. If you do it by the numbers you can loose the weight. It is just a matter of changing the way you think about weight loss.Once you start wearing your calorie counter you can see the numbers increase and you fill find yourself doing extra things in your day, like tapping your foot while waiting at the light in your car, chewing gum, singing out loud and so on onto of your workout routines. You begin to see that everything you do in your day contributes to the overall numbers needed to loose that pound.I, myself, have done this recently. Two weeks later, I lost one pant size and 10 pounds. And that is just my current progress. I have used this method previously after childbirth and have gone from 168 to 127 pounds with in two months.I personally burn 1,000 calories by Walking in my community for one hour in the morning and I also burn 1,000 calories by simply using a stationary bike while playing xbox. I get so involved in playing xbox that I completely forget I am pedaling or working out. Think about it..How many hours have you spent playing video games..why not burn calories while you are doing it.___Water Intake/Less StorageMost people do not get enough water in their system. Water is your body s principal chemical component, comprising, on average, 60 to 80 percent of your weight. Every system in your body depends on water. For example, water flushes toxins out of vital organs, carries nutrients to your cells and provides a moist environment for ear, nose and throat tissues.Lack of water can lead to dehydration, a condition that occurs when you don t have enough water in your body to carry out normal functions. To determine if you are getting enough water use this simple formula.. Take your weight, for example 150 pounds and divide by 2. Take your answer which is 75 lbs and change it to ounces, in this case 75 ounces. That is how many ounces of water you need a day. Your body performs mostly on water. If you make sure you get enough water everyday your body will perform at top notch and your body will no longer have the cravings of junk food. You will have a better performing body system to help you work out and feel better thru out your day.____Good FoodMy favorite things to eat:Avocado WrapsSimple: Low Carb Tortilla, Half Avocado sliced, alpha sprouts, lettuce, soy bacon...Just wrap it up and eat. You can vary the things you put inside so long as you keep it to approx 4 or 5 items. You want to make sure they are fresh, low calorie and filling. Avocado and mushrooms can replace meats in your meal and still have great taste.Special K Cereals are fantastic. They have that sweetness that one craves and is so good for you. Calories are low. Great for even just dinner.First thing in the morning...A Glass of Chocolate Milk. Yup!! Chocolate Milk. We all crave that got to have item in the morning. Milk is the best thing you can have for yourself while working out. The chocolate (and you can use Carnation Instant Milk for this but I simply use Nestle dry mix) will give you that sweet snack that you need. If you give your body a little bit of it and its in a control way, you will not crave sweets and junk the rest of the day.Lean CuisinesFantastic food! Each meal is approx 180 t0 380 calories per box. So think about your calories. 1,200...You can still have several of these meals a day and still be under your intake requirements.It��s all about the numbers and watching what you take in and what you burn out. And you know what..If you go over your 1,200 mark for food intake...that��s okay...you simple up your total calories burned for the day by what you took it. So long as you burn off the over all calories to be more than your food intake. Just make sure you stick too it so you can reach your weight loss goals.Fruits and VeggiesAll you want on the schedule listed below.Bananas are my favorite. They are very filling and can make a meal all on their own.____VitaminsMy favorite is ONE A DAY WITH ENERGY...I am in love with this vitamin because I am just like everyone else who loves those quick fix energy drinks. But what people do not realize is that energy drinks can contain 120 to 440 calories in just ONE Can. If you think about it..That is HALF of your allowed calories for food intake. The best alternative I have found is One a day with energy vitamin. Easy to spot, it is packaged in a green label bottle. Just One vitamin a day will give you as much energy as approx. 1 1/2 cans of red bull...WITHOUT the calorie intake.WoW..now your making progress already because you have made more room in your intake calories for actual healthy food._____Soda/CarbonationCarbonation is terrible for your system because it bloats your stomach. And when your stomach bloats, your jeans just don t fit. You can drop one pant size simply by NOT drinking any carbonated drinks all together..Take away the bloat and you have instantly just made it one pant size lower. Besides, Sodas dehydrate you and with that One a Day Vitamin, you won t need the Caffeine in the soda and it will also cut out those extra calories that you don t need.So remove that soda and the energy drinks and just think how much calories you just instantly removed from your daily intake. I normally consume what...four sodas and two energy drinks in one day...that is a total of .... 900 calories. Of what??? Nothing...Those are horrible calories and calories that can be replaced by food which will fuel your body for your day and your workouts.____Your BodyYour body is like a computer. You must program your body to do what it is suppose to do so it won t crash and leave you with a virus. Your stomach is only the size of your fist. So think about it right now, Look at your hand and close your fist. Not very big is it. That is how much food you actually ONLY need to eat, each time you eat for every meal. If you eat anything more than that, you will stretch out your stomach which causes overeating and overweight.What you need to do is eat every three hours, approx 5 to 7 times everyday around the same time. If you are always giving your body healthy and better food choices (the size of your fist) every three hours, your body will know you are giving it food. It will use that food properly. It will not go into starvation mode or store food away for later because it knows...it will get more in three hours. So what does your body do...it flushes everything out of your system because it doesn t need it.. Now it knows...you wont forget about it and that food is on its way.____Walking BuddyThis is the best thing especially for woman. Get a walking buddy. One hour everyday. Just think about how much talking, venting and laughing two woman can do together while walking and yup, you guessed it...it just burns more calories and reduces your stress. You now are more relaxed because you can talk and free yourself of whatever is frustrating you while getting into shape.
you are killing metabolism, and you are actually slowing it down. By doing this you will just put the weight back on as soon as you start to eat. you body needs fat. to help protect the organs. who cares what society says. one can still be chubby, but in better shape than the stick chick.
try to eat healthy food instead u choose not to eat any thign at all. try the tips below1) Cook your food without any food oil try to use boiled/steamed vegetables, meat, and lot of salad.

This is the type of question I was looking forI work at the hospital with bariatric (overweight) patientsAll of my friends want to lose weightIn order for you to understand why not eating doesn t workMetabolismMetabolism burns fat, metabolism gets faster with the more nutrients it receivesYou want to lose weight?*Become active, walk, bike, climb the stairs twice a day, do something*Drink water-this is so ridiculously crucial -at least 4 cups 8 oz each, every day*Eat a small amount of healthy food, high in protein, low in sugar and saturated fat, about every two to three hours -this should come to about 6 times a day*Don t eat within 2 hours before going to bed -this is one of the most common causes of obesity in US*if you don t eat, you kill your metabolism, lose a little bit of fat, and then start losing muscle, keeping the fat-any questions at all please feel free to message me
you can try to exercise as well but just dont starve yourself. eat atleast one meal a day but do not completely starve yourself cuz thats really bad.well what you can do it work the areas that you dont like.for example, if you don t like your stomach, do sit ups or crunches,if you dont like your legs, do squats, etcif you want to loose fat (not just weight) you have to exercise the fat off
that never works. when you deprive your body of something you will want it more. I have tried that as a teenager. At the end of the week i end up binge eating because i miss my carbs. Besides, unless you can not eat for the rest of your life, the weight will come back after you start eating. Why not just moderate your calorie intake and your portion sizes?
Great post! I totally understand how you feel. I m also trying to lose weight and I found this great product which is working for me. You can check the website at http://www.be-happy-diet.us , I had a free trial and paid less than $5.00 shipping and handling. Best of luck!
You will lose muscle. Muscle burns calories, this is bad to lose it. You will look flabby. You must exercise and eat like some of the people above have suggested.
The best way to lose weight is slow and consistent changes over time...... First determine your motivations and how effective those motivations are for you. If you are going for a quick fix, you will only mess up your metabolism and end up worse off than before......The simplest way to lose weight is to make sure that you expend more calories than you take in......The simplest way to keep weight off is to develop habits that you know you can consistently keep over a long period of time. Drastic changes are not likely to persist over time, (eventually you will have to eat). Your metabolism is now responding by slowing down in order to maintain the energy balance equation, so you don t die.....My suggestion follow the food guide pyramid, practice portion control (don t pig out). If you must eat a lot, eat foods that are filling but low in calories.... Salads and vegetables with light dressings or light oils....Try to add activity to your day in the most normal way possible and little by little. This will ensure continued progress over time....Note of encouragement: see how you compare to the U.S. Army weight reccommendations.
you don t sound too overwight! starving is a waste of time. it will fly back on. you should switch to 2 serves of fruit a day lots of non starchy veg and 3 lean serves of palm size protein. or go on protein shakes. drink heaps of water and move your butt. it sounds like you have self image issues, you should see a counseller.best wishes.
