How to lose weight for 14 year old girl?

How can I lose weight? I’m not over-weight or anything I just wanna lose like 10 pounds
So, how can I lose weight? is running an hour each day good? or do I need to do more?

Thanks!

weight loss cardiff answers:

Okay do NOT listen to the person that said anorexia. That’s definitely not healthy. Just run and work out and make sure you eat healthy. Don’t drink sodas and eat a lot of junk food. That’s what I did. The weight comes off in no time(:

How many calories should i eat to lose weight and gain muscle?

I’m 16(male) and weigh alot, 5’4 at 185lbs. I’m trying to lose weight and gain alot of muscle. How many calories should i consume to gain the appropriate muscle and lose weight? i run/jog for about 20mins a day after working out my chest,arms,back and legs. I want to lose weight fast, but not too much so i dont build muscle. Thank you

weight loss cardiff answers:

What I find when trying to tone up is that the amount of calories doesn’t matter as much as what the calories are made up of. Like if you eat 1000 calories of vegetables, that’s much better for you than 1000 calories of junk food. However, if you’re eating 3000 calories a day, you’ll probably want to cut it back maybe 500 calories. Look at this website: http://www.webmd.com/diet/features/estimated-calorie-requirement. It says you need about 2500 a day, however that is if you want to maintain your weight. So try 2000-2200 a day, and you’ll be able to tell if you need more or less. Try to lift weights 4 times a week, and exercise as much as possible. You’ll probably lose your water weight pretty quickly, but then it will take awhile, because if you’re losing fat and gaining muscle, your weight might not change, but you will still look and feel better.
Good luck!

What is the best way of walking/running outside in the cold to lose weight?

I am obese, I need to lose 90 pounds. I’ve lost 5 pounds which seems small but it’s a big start for me. I want to really change my life. I can’t afford to go to a gym, and I tried running outside but I ran out of breath within the first few minutes. What are some good ways to lose weight by walking/running outside in the cold? also, how can i control my breathing??

weight loss cardiff answers:

Start breathing through your mouth for starters and second…running in the cold in horrible for your health! It’s bad bad your lungs. Also running in extreme heat is bad for you as well. However, people still do it.

Start out slowly, try jogging for a few minutes and then walking for a minutes and then each time you start jogging try jogging faster and do this for about 30 minutes. But every time you jog for a few minutes walk for a minute.

But make sure you breath through your mouth.

Nancy asks…

losing weight? or gaining muscle?

so i’m 5’11 and weigh 164. 18 yr old male. i’m a little chubby and was wondering which would take longer to do….gain muscle or lose weight. i need to lose around 15 pounds but gain alot of muscle because my arms and legs are skinny. but i don’t want to be BIG, just lean. i can’t seem to qork on both so i’m sticking to one and then jump on the other one. any advice would be appreciated, thanks! 😀

weight loss cardiff answers:

Losing weight duh, you can lose 14 pounds in just a week or two, it would take you a year just to gain that much muslce, You can’t lose weight and gain muscle at the same time because both do the opposite, when losing weight you lose some muscle and strength its unaviodable.

Focus on losing weight first, then once you get around 11% or 12% body fat you can bulk up to gain muscle. Building muscle is hard you have to go through bulking and cutting phases which people don’t seem to understand, when building muscle you will put on fat.

WOWOWOWO DID THAT DUMMMBBAASSS JUST SAY BUILDING MUSCLE IS EASIER THAN LOSING WEIGHT LOLOL WHAT A FUCKKCKCCKING STUPID ASSSSSZSZZZZZ LOLOLOL

Hes dumb people from p90x get ripped, ripped is when you have no body fat, they didnt gain muscle they just lowered theyre body fat to show off the muscle they already have, you can tell this guy doesnt know anything about bodybuilding

Donald asks…

What is the difference between losing weight and losing inches?

Can ssomeone please tell me what the difference is between losing weight and losing inches. I was advised that working out on the treadmill loses inches and not weight but isn’t that the same thing?

Also what are Cardio machines?..does a stepper count as a Cardio machine?

Thanks ;o)

weight loss cardiff answers:

Losing weight means losing pounds, while losing inches means losing size, or getting smaller. Often times when people increase their exercise, they do not lose much weight but end up losing inches. This is because muscle is heavier than fat, but takes up less room. This is why size measurement are usually more accurate than weight. Working out on the treadmill you could lose both inches and weight, but since your legs would become more toned, you probably wouldn’t lose all that much weight.

When people refer to a cardio machine, they just mean a machine that allows you to work your cardiovascular system (your heart). This includes an elyptical or stepper, a bike, or a treadmill. You don’t need a machine, though. Running and walking are great exercises, and you don’t need a treadmill to do them. Swimming is another great exercise.

how to lose weight fast?

Can someone help me with some tips on how to lose weight fast without taking any diet pills

weight loss cardiff answers:

To lose weight, you must be burning off more calories than you are consuming. For example, if you’re consuming 1000 calories a day, you should work off 1,500 and in a week you would lose a pound. (3500 calories is one pound).

Naturally, (depending on age, muscle to fat ratio….) if you’re young or something, you already burn about 1,000 calories a day.

Eat five small meals a day also, to raise your metabolism, and shower and drink cold water, this raises your metabolism, and therefore you lose weight faster.

Also, losing weight fast without excercising, is impossible, as any quick fix you try will also allow you to gain that same weight you lost, just as quick.

Stay healthy and good luck ! Xxx
