I need some help on how to lose weight!? -

ok i am 15 years old and 5 9 and a female and i weigh 167 pounds and i really dont like how i look. I play soccer for my high school and i do exercise with them but im a goalie which i dont do much running during the game so that does nothing for me. I really want to lose atleast 37 pounds atleast by the end of 2008. maybe in 6 months but i really want to change myself so i can finally wear that bikini!! Can anyone tell me some specific diet plans or meal schedules(breakfast,snack,lunch,dinenr) or even workout schedules.

I use winsor pilates buns and thighs and 8 min abs been only using it for 4 weeks and see great results....it really tones up the body. I also started to eat healthy....cut out junk food and soda! I eat 5 small meals instead of 3 regular portioned meals. This keeps me fuller longer and helps prevent me from snacking on things that aren t good for me.

go on a diet

ah... the famous weight loss goal as a new years resolution.okay, it would take way too long for me to type you out a meal plan and workout plan, but heres a few tips.obviously, watch what you eat. try to cut out all of the unnecessary snacking on junk food. your dinner plate should be half filled with something like a salad, some sort of vegetable. 1/4 should be pasta, roll, etc. and 1/4 should be meat. thats an example anyway.exercise is KEY! have a good balance between cardio and weights.4 small meals a day to keep you tied over is better than 3 huge meals.the internet is amazing. you could probably find some good workout plans and/or diets plans that would work for you.lastly, make small goals at a time. ex. go to the gym Xamount of times this week, increase next week, etc. and know that you may not see results for a while, but make sure and stick with your goals.hope this helped, at least a little. good luck !

don t eat for at least 1 week

weight watchers girl, my mom did it and lost A LOT of weight, and she walked a mile a day.

OK, well for starters, remember this vital piece of information I have learned through all of my anorexic friends/people I know: TO LOSE WEIGHT, YOU MUST EAT.People who want to lose weight fast eat aprox 900-1200 calories a day. Any less and you will /not/ lose weight.To speed up your metabolism, eat breakfast, and eat 6 small meals a day, not three.Always make sure to eat snacks and eat when you feel like eating, do not wait until you are starving by dinnertime.

Losing weight is a simple equation: if you burn more calories than you eat, the weight will come off. Start off by estimating how many calories you burn each day using the daily calorie needs calculator http://straighthealth.com/pages/tools/ca�� This will give you an idea of how many calories to eat. Healthy weight loss is 1-2 pounds per week. To lose 1 pound per week you need to create a calorie deficit (burn more than you eat) of 500 calories per day. To lose 2 pounds a week, you have to double the deficit to 1000 calories per day. You can achieve this by eating less, exercising more or a combination of both.Beginners Guide to Dieting - http://straighthealth.com/pages/guides/b��

Try to exercise as often as you can, 20 min a day is a good start. Don t over do it and hurt yourself. Drink lots of water. Stay away from junk food and soda. Eat more fruits and vegetables. Control your portions. Try using a small plate. And something I saw on TV today about portion control, they said if your food doesn t touch each other on the plate, you will have less on the plate. Good luck! I m trying to lose weight this year too. I lost 25LB last year in 6 months but then by Dec. I gained it all back. This year, I m not playing the numbers game. I m just exercising 20 min to 40 min a day, controling portions and what foods go in my mouth. The weight loss will fall into place with the other stuff being consistant. Good luck!

Why not lose weight faster? -

I keep seeing people say that it s unhealthy to lose more than 2 pounds a week. What exactly are the health concerns for someone losing more than that?

The best advice I can give you is to focus on losing fat, not losing weight. If you lose three to five pounds per week, and it s all fat, no muscle - more power to you! Of course the only way to know this is with body composition testing. I recommend the Accu measure for home self testing as first choice. I suggest using the Tanita bio-electric impedance analysis scale only as second choice behind calipers for home self testing. Even better, get a professional caliper test from an experienced tester at a health club, or even a water (hydrostatic) or air (bod pod) displacement test.

The first 4lbs you lose when on a diet is most likely water. Some Experts say that its not possible to lose more than 2 lbs of fat a week unless you are an athlete. If you lose more than that its more likely to be muscle or water. If you are losing a lot and not eating enough, your body consumes the muscles that keep your organs strong. (hence why anorexics can die from organ failure). This can add strain to your organs and cause problems when your joints. You would need to have tests done to see how much fat you are losing. However most tests are inaccurate

Losing 2lb a week is the slow and steady way of doing so your more likely to stick to it in the long term, because you will be trying to keep this weight off for the rest of your life.

To lose 2 lbs a week you need a deficit of around 7000 calories. This is about 20 hrs of work outs at the gym, while eating moderately. Most people do not diet like this, choosing instead to starve themselves. When starved the body conserves energy because it does not know when the next meal is coming and when you begin eating normally it puts on extra lbs so that next time you starve yourself, there is more fat to survive on. You also need a certain amount of protein and if not eaten regularly each day the muscles and organs are broken down to supply it.

I lost on average 4 or 5lbs a week when I decided that I needed to lose. I lost 52lbs in 12 weeks in 2003 and I have kept this weight off since then. I was exercising and cut out sugary foods from my diet and reduced my portion size. It was clearly not unhealthy for me, but bear in mind that my weight gain was the result of being unable to move about much because of illness. As soon as I was mobile again I shed those excess pounds with ease. It may be different for someone who is trying to lose under other circumstances. I believe that everyone has a genetically predetermined weight and that if you drop below that you find it very hard to maintain weight loss or to lose anymore, plus you look ill. I m proud to be one of the 10% of people who have managed to keep their weight off.

the only reason they say this is because 9 out of ten people that lose a lot of weight fast tend to put it back on, as well as more than they lost, that is the only reason

i dont see the people on the biggest loser complaining about losing more than 2 pounds a week, if they can do it then why cant anybody else of course you would have to have medical attention frequently to supervise.

How can I lose weight FAST?!? -

Okayyy, I don t want any cocky comments here or anything..But I ve tried diets + walking etc. but my weight just stays the same..I have quite big thighs and a bulgy belly, how can I get thinner?!please help! x

Eat healthily and exercise properly... walking is ok, but do some real exercise and get your heart rate up!You might find your weight will actually go up for a short period..but that s muscle and perfectly natural, your actual fat content will go down.Have plenty to eat for breakfast, and also have smaller and more frequent meals to keep your metabolism high. Cut out sugar, but keep eating properly, don t believe all that cutting carbs or weird diet rubbish. Eating well never did anyone any harm, but when you re not hungry anymore.. stop eating. It s easy

First off diets are retarded unless you know the most simple ones. Only eat organic fresh foods wich will give you the good carbs rather than the unhealthy bad carbs Joging,Swimming,Running,Go to the gym, Sweating, And also thereis proof that if you just think about losing weight and what you are doing is working then you will lose more weight

One sure way to lose weight fast, is to fast. Not the best idea, in the world, but one that sure does work fast.It s a simple formula, eat less, exercise more. The less you take in, the less calories you have to burn off. So if you eat less, and exercise more, that weight will come off.

try to add pilates (if you really want to lose weight) diet+excercise+pilates. i had the same problem because genetically speaking, my whole clan is kind of overweight so nothing really seems to make me lose weight. but when i tried this combination, it worked... not that fast though... of course it will take time but losing weight is not about how fast you lose weight but how much you changed your lifestyle to have a healthy weight.

weight loss supplements. They work

Eat fresh fruit and exercise a lot. Have fun doing sports you love! Cut out any chips dessert and things that have lots of carbs or calories.If you have a dog walk it and play chase with it! Good Luck!!!

i just want to say weight loss suplements are a scam and dont work

all i did was eat fruits salads instead of oily foodsDO NOT GO ON A DIET IT IS NOT HELPFULand i was 58 kg but now i am 52kgnow i am underweight and my parents tell me to eat more!!!!

What is the best way to lose weight faster espically in the hips and belly? -

Research shows that trans fat increases fat in belly and hips so stop eating that. See site below for ways to lose weight and especially in belly under quickest weight loss. Uses a secret trick used by models to flatten their tummy.

Long distance running works. But you have to work up to it. Just start at a comfortable pace.The target should be to run at 30 seconds normal pace to 30 seconds fast and back again as long a distance as your comfortable with and buy good running shoes. Do this every other day and your whole body will change for the better not just your hips and belly. Stretch with Pilates targeting hips and stomach.diet: eat fruits, vegetables, whole grains, chicken, fish

you tell me and we ll both know :)

Hard to spot lose in a certain area, best to lose weight overall.

Loosing weight fast is always an unhealthy thing.There are many diets who tell you that you can loose a lot of weight in no time. And it is working, but you are doing no good to your body. And there s also the Jojo-effect.The best thing to loose and hold a healthy weight is healthy food, less sugar, lots of drinking water, and sports.Diet has to begin in your head. And you already started to think about your nutrition. That s an important step. It is too easy just to make a magazine-diet for 2-3 weeks and loose some weight. But it will come back soon again. If you are over-thinking your nutrition and activity, you will have a constantly good result. Isn t that much better and healthier than a crash-diet ?Loosing a lot of weight fast doesn t mean to slim your tummy. It s not working that way. It s a long process to bring your tummy back in shape.You are pretty the way you are , honey. Don t do anything bad to your body. And don t listen to people who want to sell you diet pills or other stuff. It is a dangerous thing.please check this artical: --How can I lose weight fast.?-- --http://www.healthylifeday.com/index.php?option=com_content task=view id=187 Itemid=62 -- Keep on doing your thing.Take care,J.Z :-)

Do some cardio exercise, like running. Then sit ups, crunches, and there are variations to these as well. Go on prevention.com. They have some good exercises that will work. Just remember, you need to do fat burning cardio exercises in order to really get a flat stomach.

I need to lose weight fast. How much weight can I lose by fasting? -

fasting..mmmm If you feel you are over weight, the best question to ask yourself is am i happy? if answer is yes then who bloody cares lol!I actualy WAS overweight, but have been on a no cook diet plan for a few months now, im actualy quite slim lol...its true lol!Here s where i get my info and plans from ..www.dietplansforlife.comIve realised its about what you think mentaly, not just how you look o the outside..have a peep at thewebsite and let me know what you think please/xxxx

you dont want to starve yoourself. just stop eating junk foods and exercise alot.

I take it by fasting you mean starving yourself, which is anorexia. There are much better wasys to lose wait. Try excersise and cutting out junk food.

That depends...could be anywhere from 1 pond in a week to 7 pounds a week.

Okay. I actually had the same idea a while ago. I researched around a bit and I found a great way to lose weight quickly and efficiently through fasting. First of all, I am going to warn you that this is a DANGEROUS diet; you musn t stay on it perpetually (who could, anyway?). When you don t eat, your stomach begins to eat itself, in the sense that the acids have nothing to digest. That is extremely dangerous as it can create stomach ulcers and the like. Therefore, a proper starvation diet is one that involves fooling the stomach. What you do is, you eat less than 500 calories a day. Every 4-5 hours, you have something very light. Crackers or celery sticks. Preferably an egg or two (for protein). This way, your stomach is always being forced to work and digest.This is NOT A GOOD PERMANENT DIET. Only in cases where you need to lose weight FAST. It will help you lose at least 6lbs-10lbs a week. Be careful and good luck!
