weight loss cardiff answers:

Discover your dietary point of preference. If you work hard to control your weight, you may get pleasure from your appearance, but you may also feel sorry for yourself each time you forgo a favorite food. There is a balance to be struck between the immediate gratification of indulgent foods and the long-term pleasure of maintaining a desirable weight and good health. When you have that balance worked out, you have identified your own personal dietary pleasure “point of preference.” This is where you want to stay.

Helen asks…

How do you keep your metabolism going when fasting?

I have been eating right and working out but i’m really struggling to lose weight. I only need to lose about 17 pounds but it just won’t come off. I have fasted before in the past for 2-3 weeks and it really helped me to lose weight but the only thing is that after I was done fasting I started eating a lot of junk food and put back on all the weight, if not more…I think that since I fasted it slowed down my metabolism a lot because I used to be able to lose weight very easily and now that i’m working hard it’s just not coming off…

Is there a way to fast and still have a good metabolism?

Thank you

Chris asks…

does acai berry power 500 and total cleanse work?

I see these ads all over the internet and I guess Dr Oz reccomended it on Oprah. Have you tried it? Is it worth the money? Is there a certain diet plan you have to follow? I know there is no such thing as ‘miracle’ weight loss supplements I just wanna know if I spend the money will I actually see results?

weight loss cardiff answers:

This is a scam. I am not sure if the product works or not but don’t buy it from the online scam. It is NOT recommended by Oprah, despite the claims. I fell victim to the free trial claim, and within 2 weeks of ordering the free trials, my credit card was charged $80 a piece for each of those products! Canceling is not as easy as it seems, either, but after canceling the credit card I used and finally reaching the two separate companies I got it canceled.

Acai berries are really good for you, but go to a local health food store and buy some of the juice they sell there. Acai is already a natural cleanse so not sure if you really need the Total Cleanse product or not. I got them thinking it was only a trial and I had nothing to lose, but was wrong there. I do recommend the Acai berry, just don’t fall for the scam. 🙂

Ruth asks…

What’s the best way to drop a significant amount of fat within 2 weeks?

I’m going out with a girl in 2 weeks and want to drop some weight before then. I’m 6’1″, 265 lbs., 19 years old. My ultimate goal is to get to 225, but I’d be more than happy if I could get below 250 in 2 weeks. Any suggestions?
Also, I have two jobs, I already go to the gym 3 times a week, and I have been cutting back on what I eat.

weight loss cardiff answers:

First of all, let’s go the National Institutes of Health site to check desirable weights for height. You can follow this by clicking on the first link below. A healthy BMI (body mass index) is between 18.5 and 24.9.

At six foot one, 265 pounds, your BMI is now 35.0.

In order to get to a BMI of 24.9, you need to get your weight down to 189.

That being said, don’t rush the weight loss. Crash diets fail in the long term, and can be very dangerous, sometimes leading to death. “Cardiologist Isadore Rosenfeld, MD, a professor of clinical medicine at Weill Cornell Medical College, in New York City, and author of the forthcoming Doctor of the Heart: A Life in Medicine, opposes crash diets (less than 1,200 calories a day) and detox plans like the Master Cleanse.” Click on the second link below for more about crash diets.

The sensible thing to do is to limit your weight loss to two pounds per week. Even this modest weight loss goal isn’t easy. You must burn about 1000 more calories per day than you consume to make this two-pounds-per-week goal achievable.

In order to do this, you need to find some activity that you will stick with that burns a lot of calories. Running is excellent, but at your present weight, you will be putting a lot of stress on your knees and ankles. I would suggest swimming for about an hour a day. Try alternating sprints with lower paced swimming. Walking is good too, but you will need to do a lot of it to burn a lot of calories.

As far as diet is concerned, your first step should be to eliminate empty calories: fried fast foods, cakes, candy. Soda, donuts, and the like. Eat plants, not food made in plants.

All my best to you in your weight loss goals, but don’t rush it. It took you many years to get to your present weight. Don’t try to shed it in a few short weeks.

Nancy asks…

If I start diet pills will I gain the weight back when I stop?

I’m starting Slimquick today, but just realized I may have to take it for the rest of my life! I really don’t want that, so I need to know if I’ll gain all of the weight back that I lost when I quit the pills. Anyone know anything?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Hi,

I’ve tried so many different diets in the last 10 years that I can say now, they don’t work!
A few months ago, I came across a great product for weight loss (it’s actually a colon cleanse) and like many others I was skeptical about it. But I really wanted to lose weight and I tried it (it’s 100% natural). The results were excellent. I lost about 20 pounds in 2 months with this detox. That’s why I recommend you check this product at
http://www.easy-diet-fit.us where they have a free trial and you only pay $4.95 shipping and handling.
Good luck!

Carol asks…

Predict which solvent will dissolve more of the given solute?

These are from one of my exams that I didn’t do so well in. Can you please explain this to me? I’m having a make-up test tomorrow. Thanks.

(a) Sodium chloride in methanol (CH3OH) or in propanol (CH3CH2CH2OH)

(b) Ethylene glycol (HOCH2CH2OH) in hexane (CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH3) or in water.

(c) Diethyl ether (CH3CH2OCH2CH3) in water or in ethanol (CH3CH2OH)

weight loss cardiff answers:

(a) Methanol – NaCl is ionic and will form ion-dipoles with the -OH groups of
both methanol and propanol. Propanol is less hydrophillic (water loving and
polar) to the dispersion forces to a greater extent.

(b) Water – Hexane has no dipoles and is non-polar. It will not interact with the
-OH groups in ethylene glycol. Water can H bond to the ethylene glycol.

(c) Ethanol – Diethyl ether can interact through a dipole and dispersion forces.
Ethanol can provide both while water would like to H bond.

Lisa asks…

Please help explain vapor pressure through the following calculation?

Diethyl ether has a DeltaH°vap of 29.1 kJ/mol and a vapor pressure of 0.703 atm at 25.0°C. What is its vapor pressure at 60.0°C?
final anwser should be in atm.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Clausius Clapyron equation:
ln(p1/p2) = (∆Hv/R) (1/T2 – 1/T1)
Just substitute (T in Kelvins)
ln(p1 / 0.703 atm) = [(29,100 J/mol) / (8.314472 J/K*mol)] (1/298 K – 1/333 K)
Solving, p1 = 2.42 atm.
The vapor pressure is above 1 atm 60.0 °C because the normal boiling point is 35 °C.

Mary asks…

You are busy carrying out an experiment when a classmate asks for your help.?

You are busy carrying out an experiment when a classmate asks for your help.
Your friend is holding up a reaction tube and seems confused about which layer is
aqueous and which is organic. You are in the middle of a different experiment
and you have no idea what is in the reaction tube. So you ask your friend about
the solvent he has used for his experiment. Your friend says he thinks he used
diethyl ether, but is not sure. He shows you the bottle from which he obtained the
solvent, but the label seems to be faded. What can you do to help your friend
solve the mystery about the aqueous and organic layers?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Mark the interface on the tube, add a little more solvent (or water) and see which layer gets bigger.
Works every time.

George asks…

What is the best thing I can do to lose weight?

I don’t eat salad. I only like about five kinds of vegatables. I don’t eat a lot of fruits, although I like many kinds. With only red meat, chicken, rice, and potatoes as my main diet, I am at a loss of how to lose weight. I run about 15 miles a week and do muscular strenghth or endurance exercises about 45mins daily.

weight loss cardiff answers:

If weight loss is your goal, you should focus your workout on cardio. How many days per week do you run? Ideally, you should do some type of cardio 5-6 days per week for 30-60 minutes per session. I would recommend running perhaps 3 days a week and supplement it with another form of cardio, perhaps bicycling, swimming, or anything you enjoy. You should also mix up your runs. One day should be a long, but relatively easy run, another a more intense but shorter run and then run intervals on the 3rd day. As far as your strength training, I’d recommend lifting weights 2-3 days per week with a day of rest between sessions. Its important to give your body a chance to recover between workouts. You diet should contain a variety of fruits and vegetables, 60% complex carbs (whole grains, not potatoes), 20% high quality protein (eggs, low-fat dairy, fish), and less than 20% fat. Also be sure to eat a combination of protein and carbs within 30 minutes of your workout and drink plenty of water.

David asks…

Does high intensity interval training running really better than normal running in losing weight?

On a treadmill, is it true that HIIT has better results in losing weight than running on a treadmill?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Ive never seen that button on a treadmil… But what i do on the treadmil with my friend is interval training. We have 2 treadmils and one is going at 10 or 11 mph and the other is at 3.5mph and every minute we switch. We do this for about 20-30 mins and this interval training has made me lose body fat fast. Went from 16% body fat to 8% body fat… And i do the same thing on the stairmaster.

Lisa asks…

Any other good exercises to lose weight rather than running?

I hear people who run lose weight fast. But I really despise running, any other types of exercises that would have the same benefits as running? Thanks.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Swimming will help you lose weight all around your body.

Also, you sweat much more when you are swimming than when you are running. Just to let you know. =)
