Lose Weight by ExercisingIn case you cannot change your eating habits and still want to lose weight, you can surely lose weight with exercising. But it will take much more time for you to lose weight.Steps to follow 1. Decide the time you will give to exercising. 2. Make a decision on your aimed weight. 3. Approximate the amount of weight you must lose the first week. 4. Figure out your main form of exercise- walking, treadmill, running, etc. 5. Do this exercise every day around the same time. 6. Start out slowly, your sessions will get longer as your body adjusts to the exercise. 7. To prevent you from getting depressed, give yourself a small reward at the end of each day (non-food, of course). 8. Move around every chance you get- climb stairs instead of taking the elevator, park in farthest spot in the lot, clean house more. 9. Get a stability ball and bounce or just sit on it (making sure to keep your back straight and abs firm) while watching TV, working at the home computer, etc.Tips of help * Set a target weight for a specific occasion, i.e. a friend s wedding in which you re a bridesmaid. * Drink lots of water. In addition to making fat more soluble, the water provides much needed sustenance to the muscles as they become accustomed to exercise. Choose water that is fortified with minerals like potassium, magnesium and calcium. These minerals, important to maintaining electrolytes in the blood, are depleted from sweating during exercise. They also aid in keeping blood pressure down which is important to any healthy person, especially one embarking on a serious exercise regimen. * Avoid caffeine and diet pill supplements containing caffeine. Although it will often decrease appetite and cause a greater initial weight loss, caffeine merely strips off water weight and dehydrates the body. If you are a coffee drinker, try to gradually reduce your intake or substitute half of your usual coffee grounds with chicory to decrease the overall caffeine per cup. * Lift weights. Adding muscle to your body increases your metabolism, which in turn helps your body s natural ability to burn fat.Things to remember * Don t be too hard on yourself. You won t lose ten pounds the first week. Expect a gradual weight loss. * You will have soreness and muscle aches if you haven t vigorously exercised in awhile. * Don t worry. The more you exercise the more you ll stretch your muscles and the pain will greatly decrease. * You can lose weight just by exercising only if you keep a moderate eating pattern- not a diet, per se, just eat sensibly three times a day with healthy snacks. * Watch for overall body condition changes, not just weight. * Watch for overall body condition changes, not just weight.
B/c its not that easy and just like you people have no clue about what they need to do
Actually if you eat less, your metabolism lowers to a conservative mode. You need to cut back on foods with a high fat content and exercise more.
most people are just lazy and want to try and find an easier way, but the way to do it its like you said. eat not only less, but healthy, plenty of vegetables, cut the breads and sugars out of your diet, no junk food and excercise.
My ideas? Try to do 200 minutes of cardio a week. Remember fat does not turn into muscle, so you need to lose your fat while putting on muscle. Work hard, but don t over 60 minutes at a time. Do planks and other abs exercises on alternate days.On training days, do 5-10 minutes of cardio to warm up, then do your weight training. Do 30 to 60 minutes more of cardio, then go home.The best time to eat is just after your workout within an hour when your metabolism is raging. For your muscles, incorporate some isolated soy protein or whey protein. Whey is more potent but the soy tastes better!Don t look at your scale as the be all and end all, but get a measuring tape to check your progress, and that will show more tangible results.Read magazines like Shape, Womens Fitness, Fitness, etc to get tips and to stay motivated.Good luck and stick at it. This plan has lost me 20 lbs in 12 weeks so far, just go for it!
A lot of people truly want to become skinnier but they lack the mindset and resources to do it. They see the healthy food that they now must eat instead of their greasy, fat food, and they complain. They complain during the exercise, and they re upset when the results are not instant. Even then they sneak food that tastes good and is unhealthy for them. It s an addiction they can t stop. Their want to be skinny is not in alignment with what they re doing to make that happen, so it will therefore never happen, until they change that.
ok, so you re tired of it, and..?
i agree. eat, like, one meal a day. thats what i do, and i m plenty skinny now. it s easy...just don t eat a lot. i see too many people shoveling food into their mouths at the mall, and then complain about weight and dont know how they got it. well, uh, duh!!!
Why are people asking you this anyways?
