Sandra asks…

What are diet pills that a fourteen year old girl could buy without a prescription or her parents finding out?

I want to know what diet pills or an appetite suppressant I could buy at fourteen without a prescription and without my parents knowing. I play sports and don’t want to jeopardize my health so that I couldn’t play. I just want to control my hunger better or lose some weight, I’m only 5 ft. 2 in. And I weigh about 134 I want to get down to about 120 at the least. Can anyone help?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Don’t buy diet pills!! They do virtually nothing, just trust me. They are unhealthy. Try slim fast. Its a meal replacement that makes you feel full. I tastes like chocolate milk. Pills do nothing, but burn a whole in your pocket.

What is your number one fitness/health/weight loss tip?

What is your number one health, fitness, or weight loss tip, quote, site, or insight? Also, how much weight have you lost, if any?
Thanks!!

weight loss cardiff answers:

My first tip is determination….if you don’t apply yourself to exercising and eating a healthy diet then you are going to waste your time more than anything else.
I jog for 15 minutes daily, chest on mondays followed by biceps, triceps, back/shoulders, squats.
Diet is the most important factor that affects the weight so I stay away from fats and junk foods.

Mary asks…

Looking for info on weight loss tips for men?

Does anyone know a real site with weight loss tips for men?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Here’s a few tips that work for me:
I spend a long time in front of a computer screen. Often I just stare at the monitor for up to 15 seconds while a page load or a document gets printed or whatever it is that the computer is doing.
When this is happening I lift my hands up over my head and then bring them down. I keep on doing this until the computer has finished whatever it is doing and it requires some input.,. From me.
I do similar exercises like getting up from the chair and sitting down again. I sometimes might be standing up and might type a few sentences while standing.
Combine this with drinking only water and I am doing something to lose weight. It is not much but doing it all the time it does help in losing weight.
I might swap this sometimes. I might decide that I will not do the arm exercise for a week but that week I will get off the lift two floor below and walk up the last two floors.
So long as when I go to bed at night I can say that that day I have done something extra to burn some weight, I am happy.

Betty asks…

What are some good weight loss tips?

I need some weight loss tips!
In two weeks i need to lose about 5 pounds for wrestling

i need some tips and some good things to eat and do!
thank you

weight loss cardiff answers:

For wrestling I would run alot, eat grilled chicken and vegetables all the time, eat every 2-3 hours. Remember your goal is to burn off more than you are taking in, so you will lose weight. Eat everything steamed, and less amounts of food, but more frequently.

Your Question About Easy Weight Loss

Helen asks…

How can I lose weight in my stomach, butt, and thigh area easy, and at home?

Can you guys help me out? What are some exercises I can do at home to lose weight in those areas quickly and easily? Or, what foods should I eat? I have actually lost about 12 pounds so far, while playing on my school’s basketball team, but I still need to lose more. Now that basketball’s over, I’m afraid I have been gaining some of the weight back. Can you guys help me, any tips or advice please!

I am a 15 year old girl by the way.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Select an exercise regimen that is appropriate for you. Choose activities that you like, exercise at convenient times of the day, and have a variety of exercises to chose from to avoid getting bored.
Familiarize yourself with the benefits and potential risks of the exercises you are considering. You will want to know approximately how many calories are being expended, what muscle groups are being used, and how long you should perform the exercises.
Spend most of your time on aerobic exercises. Remember that aerobic exercises are best for weight loss and weight maintenance. You can burn many more calories in a span of time doing aerobic exercise than you can doing strength training exercises.
Do include strength training exercise, as well. Building muscle mass is important – especially since dieting can cause loss of muscle mass. Muscles burn more calories than fat over the long term, so consider strength training to be an investment in long-term weight maintenance.
Work up to exercising at least 30 to 45 minutes per day, 4 or 5 days per week. Depending on your level of fitness, you may want to work up to that gradually. Lesser amounts of exercise are adequate if your goal is longevity or a healthy body and mind. If your goal is to lose weight, you need to work towards exercising most days.
Know approximately how many calories you are burning. Many exercise machines give approximations and you can find lists of estimates online. Those numbers are never going to be exactly correct, but you never really know how many calories you are consuming either. So consider it an estimate.
Avoid eating extra snacks or treats and telling yourself “it’s ok, I exercised earlier” if your goal is to lose weight. It is much easier to eat 200 calories than to burn it off with exercise. A small snack could negate the entire workout.
Put your all into whatever exercises you choose. You can sluggishly make it through any exercise routine, but if you put a lot of energy into it you will burn a lot more calories.
Continue to challenge yourself. If your exercise routine is feeling, well, routine, then it is time to shake it up a bit. Try increasing the intensity, duration or try some new exercises.
Include more natural activity in your daily life. Walk a little extra; don’t take the short cuts; find excuses to move. Fidget in your chair. Park further from the door. Take the stairs. Don’t count this towards your total exercise time, but consider it little bonus fat blasts.
Remember to stretch after your workout, and stop if you feel pain. Talk to your doctor if you have any reason to be concerned about exercising.

[edit] TipsTry to exercise at the same time each day so that you make it a routine that will fit naturally into your lifestyle. Experience the feeling after you exercise and lose weight.
If you are feeling lazy and are tempted to skip the exercise, try negotiating with yourself. Perhaps exercise for just 10 minutes. Once you start, you may want to continue and do the full routine.
If you are a people person, join a gym or exercise club, exercise with friends, or find an exercise buddy. If you are independent and like doing things on your own, consider getting an exercise machine or participate in activities like running. If you are a competitive person, consider working up to races or other competitive sporting events.
If you feel that you are too overweight to workout or are embarassed to exercise in public, please give yourself a break! There is absolutely no need to be embarassed about exercising. You do not have to wear skimpy aerobic outfits or tight shorts. Find clothes to exercise in that are comfortable. Force yourself to participate. Once you have done it several times you will realize that you deserve to be there as much as anyone else
Try this as a rule of thumb. Quit drinking soda (regular and diet) alltogether. Eat right, and never eat past 7:00pm, not even a snack. Regular aerobic exercise 3 to 5 nights a week and the pounds will start shedding. The more overweight you are the more you will exert your energy, therefore the bigger you are the faster you will shed lbs.
It can be difficult to get started with your exercise regime. Healthy Monday is a national non-profit public health campaign that encourages people to use Monday as the day to commit to a healthy habit, such as exercising. If you can’t committ this Monday, you have another chance around the corner to get back on track.

How to lose weight for teenage girls?

I’m 14 and I’m 5 ft 6.5 inches. I weigh 120lbs. I want to lose weight QUICKLY and easily, i just don’t know how to. Please, dont be rude.
Am I fat?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Just dont starve yourself thats a bad idea. And you cant just loose weight really easily it takes time. Dont eat to many sweets eat lots of fruits and vegtables and drink water or milk instead of juice or soda. Maybe if you can go on a walk everyday or jog. You could try to do push ups everyday like do 5 pushups then take a 30 second break then do 5 more pushups just do what is comfortable. I wouldnt eat school lunch i would bring a healthy lunch.(my sister has been going to the gym for like 1 or 2 months now and she lost weight ,she went down a bra size) So i think joging or walking shuld help you loose weight.

Laura asks…

What do you think to this weight loss pill?

I know healthy eating and exercise is the best way to loss weight but however i want something to help me lose weight quickly and easily, im thinking of buying these weight loss pills called Grenade they have the following ingredients in –

500mg Ma Huang
300mg Caffiene
200mg Tyrosine
10mg Chromium polynicotinate
200mg Coleus forskhlii

Does anyone know these pills and do you think that they will be safe?
Serious answers only please!

weight loss cardiff answers:

Okay, well lets go through the ingredients.

Ma Huang is Ephedrine, which is a stimulant, which increases your metabolism, so encouraging weight loss.

Caffeine is the ingredient in Coffee that stimulates your body and mind. The increased stimulation should make you excercise more and help you lose weight.

Tyrosine is converted to dopamine in the body which increases stimulation, helping excercise, and also can lead to the production of an appetite-supressing chemical, making you less hungry.

Chromium polynicotinate helps you to metabolise glucose, cholestral and fat and promotes the loss of fat.

Although Coleus Forskohlii hasn’t been proven to encourage weight loss, it is thought to promote the production of testosterone, which leads to increased stimulation.

So basically, as long as you take the recommended dosage, this should be perfectly safe. It could make you very stimulated and jittery though, but except for that it should be fine and help you to lose weight.

Sandy asks…

How to get rid of skin after weight loss?

I recently lost about ~100lb over the period of two or so years. I’ve been overweight my entire life, so I naturally have some extra-erm-skin lying around. Unfortunately, this almost defeats the purpose of my weight loss. Whenever I bend over, its like rolls of sagging skin-it’s disgusting.
Anyway, I know it’s not easy to get rid of, but anything helps at this point.

And since I know someone will ask, I lost this weight completely naturally through exercise and dieting-no surgery, drugs, etc. All natural.

Thanks 😉

weight loss cardiff answers:

Time can remove it only. I know but weight loss requires pateince. If you get discouraged now and start to gain weight again, then your NEVER going to lose it. Just hang in there and keep up with your exercises and eating habits nad it will go away slowly.

Mandy asks…

Poll: Is it easier to see weight loss in a bigger or a smaller person?

Say someone weighed 250 pounds and lost 10 pounds and someone who weighed 160 lost ten pounds. Who would be a more noticeable weight loss? Sorry if that’s stupid I just don’t really know how to explain it.

weight loss cardiff answers:

I’d say a bigger person, they lose weight a lot easier too.
