How to lose weight without running a lot? -

Ok, i m constantly reminded how fat i am by my friend, and i m sick of it.Some of my friend say oh your not fat!but im over weight i mean really overweight.And i wanna loose 50 pound by summer 2009which is 7 months away, could i do that?im 5ft 2 1/2inand i weight ....alot. So every other day i run a mile and im trying to start a food logis there anything i can to to loose mostlyleg and belly fat besides running?Thanks lots

How much do you weigh? That s an important factor. Anyway,50 divided by 7 is 7.142,so you d have to lose 7lbs per month. Divide that by the number of weeks in a month and you d have to lose 1.75lbs per week,which sounds pretty healthy. If you currently consume about 2,000 calories per day,you need to reduce this intake by at least 250 calories less than you normally do and you need to burn off an extra 250 calories per day.3500 =one pound of fat,so you d have to burn off 3500 calories per week,which is 500 calories per day. Workouts:Invest in a video game that gets you moving. Like DDR or Wii Fit. I usually burn 500 calories on DDR in 1hour,doing difficult songs. Spinning classes are also reported to burn 500 calories in 30mins. If you have Comcast Cable,they have free workouts on Demand. If not,Youtube.com has some good workouts. You can also just walk instead of running. Walking for an hour could = running for 30mins. Grab a friend and go! Dancing to music is great as well! Skip steps when you walk up stairs! Try to keep it interesting.Diet:Drink at least 40oz of water. I drink 128 oz per day. Cut out the sodas and energy drinks. You don t need them. Obviously,stay away from sweets. Try to limit your sweets intake to 2 per month or less.V8 Fusion Smoothie is a great way to get your recommended intake of vegetables and fruits. Pickles are great,because they are usually 5 calories or 0 calories. Soups are great for filling meals. You don t have to just eat salads. Just be sensible.I ve tried the whole not eating thing and it only made me gain MORE weight. You can lose a lot of weight if you don t eat or survive on 40 calories for 7months,but you might lose other things as well. Your sanity,your grades,your friends,your muscle and maybe even your life. Don t listen to those fools who say you shouldn t have gotten that fat . At least you re trying to do something about it!

I think that the best way to lose that quantity of weight would be by eating just smaller portions and by cutting out unhealthy foods and sticking only to the healthy ones. Such as salads, vegetables....And for more of a filling meal such as at supper just eat smaller portions then you normally would. I think that most people tend to gain a lot of weight just by drinking soft drinks and eating really unhealthy. As for exercising your legs and belly fat your best bet would be maybe getting into a sport that requires much physical activity to make it more entertaining such as soccer or skiing or w.e. Maybe join a gym and work out on machines that will replace fat with muscle as muscle burns fat and will help you lose weight if anything.:)hope i helped.

Well what you need to do is drink lots of water cut on the sweets, try to eat more vegetables that will make your digestion system work better..Also try to stay away from flour foods, like bread, pastas, and keep on the running just maybe one day you run the other just walk for at least 1 hour tops. An Im pretty sure by all this you would be able to lose some weight.I hope this help good luck. I know how you feel.

How much is a lot ??? Anyway, I needed to lose some weight too so I just started walking, and it s working! Just start with a brisk walk around the block, then move up to walking everywhere you possibly can, INSTEAD of riding in a car. Take a walk every chance you get. Around the block, up to the store and back, etc etc. The weight will melt off. ALSO, drink low-cal drinks like: water, G2 (LOVE IT!), etc etc. and lay off the fast food and carbs as much as possible. If you love hearty food, just cut your portions in half and don t eat after 6pm... Good Luck hun!

OKAY. whoever is telling is fat tell THEM TO SHUT UP okay there is no easy way not lose wight without running. but you can GO ONLINE AND LOOK AT EXERSICE VIDEOS. CUT DOWN ON SUGARS AND SALT. YOU NEED TO WORK HARD IF YOU HAVE A DEAD LINE IN 7 MONTHS. GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!! p.s PLEASE pick me for best contirubuter. I NEED THE POINTS DESPERATLY a ROSE for you @)))------ ---- =) THANKS!!!!!!!

going up and down stairs is good for your legs and crunches will help out with your stomach. Also good food as well as eating in moderation will help. but you have to run way more than a mile to see any kind of result sorry but their really is no other way.

Um, no. You ll have to run alot to burn that much.. sorry hun, you shouldn t have let yourself get that fat is all I can say to that, hahah. THE KEY TO LOSING WEIGHT IS CARDIO, it s as simple as that :)

swimming... ?i would stick with running. just walk a dog or something while you run. it really is effective. you can even start running 5ks and stuff which are a lot of fun.

well...to loose weight....u should probably.....totally stop eating sugar(ex. desserts, snacks wit sugars,...etc...)....trust me...if u can do dat...u ll be ok....but..incase ur wondering...wat am i suppose to eat?.....well....eat veggis....fruits.....bread......but no jelly......tiny bit peanut butter.........but u hav to keep at it for about every 5 weeks

well you should run about 3 miles - slowly- by doing low intensity training you will burn fat-- not just carbs- complete that 5 days a weekalso you should eat healthy and not eat after 7:00 PM

i did weight watchers and in 1 week i lost 7 lbs i didn t do anything but follow that i swear if u think u can and stay with it u will lose Weight

:D I love you!! I am depressed. THats noastalgic.

What is a fast way i can lose weight? -

i want to lose weight fast. I prefer a healthy original way,but aything helps.

Losing weight could be very simple if you know what you are doing and if you have the right mental attitude and motivation right from the word go. Below are some weight loss tips that will help you.1) before you start at all you have got to to ask yourself these questions (A) Is weight loss your top priority? B) Is dieting right for you? C) Do you have the right motivation? D) Are you able to devote 20-30% of your time to your body? E) Would you accept the things you can not change? F) Do your family and friends support you?If your answer is YES to all the above questions then you are ready.2: Never ever skip breakfast : Many people who are trying to lose weight skip breakfast which is the biggest mistake any one intending to lose weight can make. Make sure you don��t miss any breafast as it is the major source of energy for the day and missing it will do you no good but harm. You must also not skip your lunch and dinner too as you don��t loss weight skipping meals but instead skipping meals makes you look ugly and it does not help your self esteem.3. Accept the fact that to loss weight will not be easy and learn to be disciple. You must realise the fact that to loss weight you must do some researches on what works and what does not. You should also learn to keep records of your intake and body weight as often as you can.4. Make your brain understand the fact that you now have a new lifestyle and that you will not eat just any how again until you have the appetite to do so. You need to know that our mind is subconcious it will believe whatever we make it to believe and will adapt easily with time and that��s why you need to keep remaining your mind about your plans to loss weight and to do it real very fast.5. Workout smartlyDo you know you can actually lose more weight keep your metabolism fired up longer by doing 3-to-4 shorter 10-minute workouts instead of 1 big 30-to-40-minute cardio workout?A research study at the university of Pittsburgh found that women who split up their 40 minute cardio workouts into 4 separate 10 minute cardio workout sessions during the day LOST 20 pounds while�� the group of women who did one big 40 minute cardio workout only lost 14 pounds and��The reason why more shorter workouts are better is because you never give your fat burning metabolism a chance to slow down.6. Reduce carbs : Yes I know this is the most popular weight loss tip and you have heard it all over again but maybe you have been doing it the wrong way, I would advice you give it a try. It is true that it is almost impossible to loss weight and keep it off forever without substantially reducing our carbohydrate intake most especially those with high amount of glycemic load (GL). It will interest you to know that the consumption of high Glycemic Load (GL) carbohydrates leads to more demand for more carbohydrates which every nuritionist believes is not good for a weight losser.7 .Get Enough Sleep : I know you probably are now thinking he must be crazy to tell me to get more sleep just because I want to loss weight but Hold on. If you��re thinking ��Wait, are you saying I can lose weight just by sleeping? AWESOME!!!!�� you��d be slightly mistaken. Sleep alone will not cause weight loss. It will however help. There so many scientific facts that support the reason for this and if you are in the 1% of people reading this who want to know those reasons, email me and I��ll explain. If you��re in the other 99%, just know that sleeping enough will indeed help your weight loss. That��s not all though. You know what it feels like when you��re tired? You become lazy. You don��t feel like doing anything. Well, when you goal is losing weight, you can��t be lazy and you can��t feel like not doing anything. Sleeping enough will eliminate this problem. Yes, you just read ��sleep enough�� on a list of weight loss tips. This one is really as easy as they get. You have no excuse.8. Passionately kiss your partner 10 times a day. According to the 1991 Kinsey Institute New Report on Sex, a passionate kiss burns 6.4 calories per minute. Ten minutes a day of kissing equates to about 23,000 calories �� or eight pounds �� a year!9. Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate: You body needs lots of water. When we don��t consume at least 8 glasses of water in a day your body will not burn enough calories as efficiently as it could be. All of your tissues need enough water to function at their very best. Without water your blood flow slows and nutrients and energy cannot travel to your muscles as quickly as they should. Therefore your endurance wanes and you will not exercise for as long as you would have if you had gotten enough water.10. Eating too much meat isn��t good for us. We all know if we eat too much it will make us feel run down and tired. Not only that, but there are health risks involved too. A diet in high fatty meats can lead to heart disease and cancer. No one wants that. Some people choose not to eat meat for

Change your diet, and do a colon cleanse. I m recommending the caveman diet (see source below) because it s fairly simple, but it s a little restrictive. Fortunately, you don t have to modify all your meals to reap the benefits. Just one or two meals a day should do the trick; along with not drinking your calories.Also, I d recommend you do a colon cleanse if you have never done one. Many people have years of gunk built up inside their body that a colon cleanse will help alleviate. Unfortunately, a colon cleanse isn t free, but in the source below I ve given you a link to the best product.

I lost a bunch of weight by changing what I eat. Nothing big, I just cut back on the fast food and had 3 meals a day. I ate to be satisfied not to be full. I know you won t like this but running will really help you. Try it out slowly and move up from there

get a bicycle and keep playing :-)

How do i lose weight fast?? and grow taller? -

i am 12 and im 5 feet and i weight 130. i know im not fat but i am chubby. and i also wanna grow taller...my dad is 6 4 and mym mom is 5 2 and im stuck short is their anyway i can grow tall like my dad?? even if im already 12 and short? i havnt hit my growspurt yet...i think.....please help!!

HiThere are some specific methods that can help you to grow taller.here are some tips that were helpful for me to grow taller naturally:Have a good sleepGetting a full night s sleep every day is one of the most important things for growing taller..Get at least 7 hours of sleep each night and take whatever steps you need to ensure that your sleep is uninterrupted as much as you can.Actually, the first 2 hours of sleep are when the most growth hormone is released into your system from your pituitary gland. If you will not sleep enough that can lower the amount of growth hormone your body produces, which is not a good thing.You need to eat the right foodsIt s very important to eat foods that are rich in proteins.for instance:milk, fish, eggs, and lean meat are all forms of good protein.another recommended foods are foods that have plenty of amino acids and vitamins.Be aware that the biggest threats to your growth are caffeine, junk food and refined sugar.Growing taller exercisesThere are some very useful exercises for growing taller. Swimming for example can help a lot to increase your growth potential.The meaning of less gravity in the water is more open bone areas for your body to fill them with new bone tissue. The free motion of swimming is very light on your body and greatly releases stress, which can be very bad to your growth potential. If you can swim 3-4 times a week it will be great.Anyhow, don t go out and buy those magical peels that you can find anywhere online, they just don t work and you will spend your money for nothing. Why not? Well because the only scientific way the body grows is through the release of our natural height increasing hormone called HGH in short.There are very few programs that actually work and can help you growing taller naturally by 2-4 inches in just a couple of weeks.Check this article for information about some of the best programs online that can help you a lot:http://www.squidoo.com/how-to-get-taller��Another great way to become taller is to buy height increasing shoes also known as elevator shoes . It will not make you grow taller but it will easily increase your height immediately. For useful information on elevator shoes and how to choose the right shoes that will be the best for you check this article:http://www.squidoo.com/shoes-that-make-y��Good luck, you can do it!.

cardio for an hour 3 times a week.don t do anything drastic like starving yourself or doing fad diets, they don t work, just work out.there s no way to make yourself have a growth spurt, you just have to wait for it. you may take your moms genes if they re more dominant but if you take after your dad you ll shoot up sooner or later. patience is key.

eat alot of meat and protein and **** it helps your body grow but yeah just wait untill your like 13 or 14 you will grow a shitload and youll be fine

Ride a bike or something everyday. Pace yourself up the hills but dont stop even when your sweating. Cut off any junk food or sugar. Do 1 pushup today 2 pushups tomorrow 3 pushups the next and so on. Also when some people eat its not because there hungry its because the are bored. Then they get fat and long for more. Dont let this happen to you.

exersice and the at night when the light are off and your on your bed do 250 sit ups. Eat tomatoes and spinach.

stop eating crappy things that you ve come to believe is actually food.you can drop a lot of weight quickly and not risk your health by eating natural foods. avoid fast food, fried, processed foods and foods and drinks that contain high fructose corn syrup. learn about what healthy portions are and eat smaller portions. eat throughout the day so you don t get hungry, but pay attention to your hunger pangs to determine if you re really eating because you re hungry, or are you bored or feeling emotionally empty or stressed.exerciselift weightsmove all the time, find physical activities that you love, ride a bike, skate, swim, do it all and have funif you concentrate on being healthy and only do things that are good for you then the weight will come off and you ll feel energized not starved and exhausted

What can I do to lose weight fast? Are diet pills bad for me? -

I ve been trying to lose some weight, but have not been able to. I ve also tried diet pills and they don t work. I eat right. Could it be my age?

You are not violating the laws of physics. The reason that you are not losing weight is that you are eating as many calories as you are burning. To lose weight, you must eat less than you burn.I lost 65 pounds in the last 13 months. Here s my method. Calculate your target weight for every day and write it on a calendar. I lose five pounds per month, so I subtract one pound each six days. Weigh yourself every morning. If you are over your target weight, eat less and exercise more that day. That s it! No calorie counting; no food weighing. Just eat a balanced diet.===Ideal body weight calculator for children and adults: http://pediatrics.about.com/cs/growthcha��Experts recommend, Slow and steady weight loss.

I have been through it all and know what s it about. The main thing is to stick in there. You can t be an addict to food and never exercise if you want to live a healthy life and keep the weight off. I ve worked out, done every diet, and all types of classes. Nothing works, besides dedication and intelligence towards the subject of losing weight. First, depending on how much weight you need to lose, your diet is the first concern. You can t eat 10,000 calories a day and expect the weight to come off, even if you are exercising a lot. Which brings us to the next thing. Duh, Exercising...This is a must especially if you need to a lot of weight. Get at least 30 mins of some good hardcore exercising. Do some cardio, in the long run, it s good for the heart.However, I find the most hardest part of losing weight/keeping it off, in my diet. It s so hard to keep your fingers out of the cookie jar or those chocolate goodies. I ve found a great addition to help any one out, it s a natural weight loss supplement called Proactol. Now don t get all crazy on me and say diet pills don t work. That is true, but not in this case. This one isn t meant to burn pounds while you sit on the couch. It s an appetite suppressant, along with being a fat binder. I saved money on the pills at http://starturl.com/efblc along with getting some good info. It basically makes those fingers not go towards the cookie jar. For me it s the best pill I ve tried and I ve tried cupboards full. Now this doesn t mean you have to follow my foot steps but I ve successfully lost roughly 70 pounds and keeping it off til this day. Well good luck and remember what I said, Dedicate.

Your weight depends on a lot of things.Age, gender, genetics, etc.Diet pills aren t too good.They have nasty side effects and don t work the same for everyone like seen on tv.You should just keep eating right and do some work outs.Maybe even get a fitness coach to help you reach your goal.That works out good for a lot of people.

the older you get the harder it is to lose weightyou need to exercise but theres no such thing as a quick fix..unless you want to use inocavureits really hard to do but you lose weight fastbut you ll gain it back if you cheat.http://www.inovacure.com/welcome.html

have you tried Crevax yet? if not you should really try it. i am taking it and i love it, the results are great, loss a lot of weight and no side effects at all.

What diets really work to help lose weight fast??? -

Well, today I just bought some workout DVD s (Kathy Smith s Peel Off The Pounds The 45 Minute Walk), and I m questioning about my diet. Are there any ones that worked for you?! I m trying to lose weight before school (August 18th). Are there any diets that work, I m talkin about 5-10 lbs. I m 13, 5 6 1/2 , and I weigh 150. I have a little excess weight in my stomach, upper back, thighs. Any exercising dieting suggestions?! 10 points most detailed, best answer.

I few simple ruels help alotdrink all water all the time, dont eat 43 hours b4 bed adn do this three tiems a week http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKCGe2Ezr��

I know that this sounds like the worst answer ever but there is no way to lose weight fast and keep it off. Last March I started Weight Watchers and lost +/- 60 pounds during the course of a year. I suggest you try Weight Watchers and exercise (probably a lot of cardio). GOOD LUCK!!!

I lost 25 pounds on the south beach diet. It is like an adkins diet, but you can eat more fruits and a little more carbs. It worked for myself, and both of my parents. Hope I could help!
