Your Question About Easy Weight Loss

Mark asks…

How fast can you lose weight without it being unhealthy?

This winter break, I am planning on making a strong effort to lose weight. For all who are wondering, the break will be 6 weeks long.

Here is what I am planning to do:
-Eat a very reasonable diet.
-Take protein supplements.
-Drink lots of water.
-Ride my bike for an hour or two a day.
-Go to the gym Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and do some anaerobic exercise to build lean muscle.

Would this be unhealthy? I have a feeling I will lose weight rather quickly, but a friend told me that losing weight fast is almost as unhealthy as being overweight in the first place. Is my plan unreasonable?

Thoughts?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Start doing that before the break, start out slow, it will take a while for your body to get accustomed to all the changes. Starving yourself is just as bad as burning off all the calories you ate that day, just make sure you get 1200 calories a day, and ride your bike for an hour maybe, two seems a bit extreme for now, especially if you’re coming out of an inactive lifestyle. Your friend is right, just don’t go overboard with the exercising. If your body goes into starvation mode you could easily gain all the weight back as fast as you lost it. Good luck!

John asks…

How can you lose weight fast and healthy?

I have tried to lose weight before a few times, and it never works for me like at all. I don’t know what to do, but I want to lose weight fast, and healthy. I wanna lose like a lot of weight in a few months because I am fat and I am impatient.Does anyone have ideas or tips?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Studies prove that people who lose weight quickly are more likely to gain it back.

It shocks your body, and it can screw up your metabolism permanently to make gaining weight easier and losing weight harder… Giving you something to struggle with all of your life.

If you make “fast” a more important factor than “permanent,” you are going to screw yourself badly.

Losing weight is more of a mental battle than a physical one. If you really want to be successful, you have to battle your impatience before you can change your habits.

And fact is, the only way to lose weight and keep it off is to change your habits— forever. To learn to make better choices about exercising and eating healthier. Because if you ever change back to your old habits, your cells will gladly gain all that weight back.

So what does it matter how long it takes? As long as you change your lifestyle to healthier habits, you will take it off and keep it off.

Steven asks…

easy to follow weight loss plans for busy people?

I’ve lost a few pounds and feel I’m stuck at my weight now and can’t lose anymore. I work 12-14 hr shifts so it’s sometimes hard to cook a healthy meal or workout the days I work. I do get alot of fast food, but I’ve changed mostly to ordering salads or subway. Does anyone have any suggestions for fast healthy meals that I can make quickly and that will be good for work to? Good workout routines if you only have 3 days a week to work out?
BTW…I’ve lost almost 15 lbs. in 2.5 months just by swiching to salads when getting fast food and subway.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Wow, what do you do for a living? My best suggestion is to, on one of your days off, to go nuts with cooking stuff you can reheat later on, like soups to freeze, cold roast meats, spaghetti, etc. You could also take those things to work. If all else fails, just have a huge salad on standby when you get home and add a small can of flavoured tuna.
How long do you have on those 3 days where you can work out? It’d be a good idea to join a gym and get a personal trainer to tailor a program for you to optimise weight loss. If you can’t get to a gym, buy a cheap cross trainer, a jump rope and some light weights so you can work out at home.

Sharon asks…

easy weight loss plan?

i am 12, weigh 150, am 5 foot 3. What can i do to lose weight fast so that kids at school don’t tease me any more?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Hi! Okay, here is a good plan. I suggest it to everyone because it’s not scary, strict, difficult, or dangerous. It helps you lose weight at a good pace and become more fit and healthy.

1. Find out how many calories your body currently burns on a daily basis/how many it needs.Using the calculator on freedieting.com and assuming that you are FEMALE, I found that you burn 1456 calories a day without doing anything. You should probably do a 500 calorie deficit, so subtract 500 and you get 956 calories. You should have between 956 and 1056 daily.
2. Start exercising. Go on a 20-30 minute brisk walk every day. Do 30 sit-ups. Do 20 push ups.
3. Eat organic foods, eat high protein, don’t eat any wheat products.
4. Drink a minumum of 5 water bottles a day.
5. Talk a multivitamin, calcium, and Omega-3 Fatty Acids. They’re good for fat burn.
6. Snack on veggies and fruits… More veggies, though, because fruit has lots of sugar.

Hope this helps!

Betty asks…

how can i lose weight without exercising?

i am 18 years old, 160cm and weigh about 62 kilos…
i would like to weigh about 55 kilos…
how can i lose weight easily as i am studying and don’t have time to exercise even though i know this is the best way.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Yes you have time to exercise. 10 mins. Of exercise is enough to keep you from losing muscle while losing weight. If you did bodyweight squats really slow up and down you probably couldn’t even do 20. And if you did one pulling and one pushing exercise for your upper body slowly then that would be a complete workout. Loss of muscle while losing weight is the surest way of slowing down metabolism.
You can just eat less to lose weight. Think smaller portions of foods(especially junk and high cal. Foods) you don’t have to feel full. Just eat about 200cal snacks or small 300 -400cal meals every 3 hrs and you will lose weight. Drink lots of water and it will curb appetite.

William asks…

how do I lose alot of weight without exercise?

Hi. I’m a 16 year old boy and I need to lose a lot of weight.
I’m hoping to weigh between 6-8 stone by this september. Right now I’m on 500 calories a day. So I should lose about 4 pound each week. I can’t go to the gym because it’s too expensive. Does anyone have any tips on losing weight quickly and easily? Much appreciated.
and I’m about 5ft 11
Oh, one more thing. thankyou to all those who help. I really am greatful.

weight loss cardiff answers:

6-8 stone?! If you’re not really short, that’s really unhealthy for a male to be that light. Are you perhaps anorexic?

Sandra asks…

how can we lose weight easily in 15 days without having any exercise or by walking?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Drink lots of water, eat nuts and raisins to increase metabolism

eat healthy.
Eat slowly, because it takes awhile for food to digest, so
it takes awhile to be full after eating.

Eating slowly will allow you to know when you’re full to eat less.

Don’t sit in front of the tv while eating.
Pretty much pay attention only to your food when you eat
also allow your body to tell you when you’re hungry, when it growls, eat.

Starving will get you skinnier but at the end of it when you eat normally again your body will be saving it,
and you’ll gain weight faster
like bears saving their food for the winter.

Also laughing for 10-15 minutes
burns75 calories

If you get cravings in afternoon, it means you’re not getting enough food in the day.
Have and extra half apple, or an extra of something healthy for breakfast or have a snack before
yur usual cravings start everyday.

Helen asks…

please answer, i need to lose weight fast?

i asked this yesterday but it didnt get posted,, if you answer it ill give best answer fast!!!!

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Aqjm2AjS5WeqBvmE2.0FKunsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20091101011118AA42wda

i will also need to give this question best answer too, so please tell me how i can lose weight EASILY, thanks

weight loss cardiff answers:

You should eat at least 4-5 meals a day.

Drink lots of water, and eat regularly. Don’t starve yourself, because once you start eating again, you’ll gain everything back, trust me.

Eat lots of fruits and veggies, and if you eat bread, make sure it’s whole grain. White bread is pretty fattening. You can also eat lean meats, like fish, turkey and chicken breast. Eggs also help when trying to lose weight.

Skip out on sweets, candy, sugary foods, chips, ice cream, cake, and cookies.

If you feel hungry, but don’t want to over eat, chew gum. It’ll keep your mouth busy and it tricks yourself into thinking your eating.

Cut out ALL soda! If you stop drinking soda, it helps you out a lot!
And don’t forget to exercise!

Try walking, jogging, jump rope, dancing, crunches, bike riding and swimming. Try exercising for 45-80 minutes a day.
Good luck!

Thomas asks…

Due Depo weight gain, considering switching birth control method?

I am currently on the shot going on four-five months. I got it for the second time about a month and a half ago.And recently have been gaining a lot of weight. i’ve always been thin and have been able to lose weight easily but i’ve only been putting on weight. I recently searched yahoo answers and saw that it’s been a common side effect of Depo.

I want to get off the shot a switch to another birth control method due to mostly the weight gain but also the back and head aches and the spotting. Perhaps the pill? Are there any side effects from switching? Should i wait some time before i do? what is the best birth control method and is weight gain a side effect too? thanks in advance

weight loss cardiff answers:

Weight gain is a common side effect of every type of birth control I have ever heard of or taken. It just comes with the hormones but there are some in pill form that are not as bad, ask your doctor. I think the only one that didn’t make me gain weight was Yaz.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Well, there really isn’t any secret to losing weight. Diet & Exercise. The stomach area is the toughest part to tone, because it is the last area of the body to show results.
Can you get to a gym or a treadmill? If so here is what I recommend. Set the treadmill to full incline as high as it goes. Then set the speed to match up to your heartrate probably going to be 150-160 bpm. When your heart rate is too high slow down, when it is too low speed up. Generally you’ll find a speed with that will maintain your heart rate in that range of 150-160. Make sure the incline is super high. 15 or so. This will tone your legs, calfs and butt. YOU MUST WORK OUT FOR AT LEAST 30mins (I suggest 45mins, you will be sweating hard, so make sure to have water on hand) otherwise you won’t deplete your fat storage. I tell all the women that come to my gym this and every one see results in a week. Keep doing your sit-ups to tone those muscles. However you may want to do leg raises and leg twists to work the lower abs and obliques. Obliques is what is going to make your stomach small. In order to get where you want to be, you need to burn lots of calories and eat right.
As far as nutrition
1) cut the fat. Eat lots of green vegtables
2) drink ice water when ever your thirsty.
3) drink milk 1-2 times a day.
4) make sure to get enough protien to help in building lean muscle

If you can do these simple things you’ll be looking super hot in no time.
Way hotter then Paris or Nicole. They aren’t healthy thin. You’ll have something they won’t, . . . Sexy shape.
