Your Question About Easy Weight Loss

Posted on by

Maria asks…

How long should I run every day to lose 35lbs?

I’m 19yr’s old, 5’0, and 145lb’s. My goal weight is 110lb’s.

I’m not asking how often, but how long every day. 30 minutes+?

If say I did run every day for that ideal amount of time, will it really work to lose weight?

Does anyone have a good meal plan to help with this? What to eat for breakfast/lunch/dinner?

Powerade vs Gaterade? Why?

And I don’t gain weight easily…I eat quite a bit of unhealthy foods, and have for a while, and I’ve been waving around 145lb’s for over a year. I never exercise and do practically nothing every day.(I know, sad) Does this mean if I actually do something, it should be easy to lose that weight?

What I am trying to do is get rid of this potbelly. It’s horrible. Will running reduce the size of it?

What will happen to all that skin if I do lose the weight?

weight loss cardiff answers:

I just lost 31 lbs…. I’m 22….. I’m 5’1

I still need to lose another 15lbs though…

I Walk Fast 30mins 3 times a week. It will really work…. I also jump rope 10mins a day everyday.

In the morning I eat Protein Bars….. Apple snack….. Lunch Chicken salad…… I drink nothing but water……. Powerade and Gaterade will only put the weight on you…because its nothing but sugar..and sugar turns into fat….. Try Sugar Free foods and watch your carb intake…… Plus you don’t want to eat anymore than 1400 cals a day…. Start counting if you want to lose the weight. And your skin after you lose the weight … You’ll need to tone up… Thats the stage I’m in now….So I’m still working on that
Oh yeah…It took me 5 months….OF HARD WORK…..Also….Take b12 and vitaminc…..It helps
Hope everything works out for ya.

Mary asks…

What diet should I use to lose weight?

What’s the best diet to go on to lose weight round 30ish pounds.Not anything I have to buy or use.Natural you know.Something thats going to help big time.I weigh 150 or so and I need to lose Im 5’4 in a half.And im pretty young.Im not very happy with my weight so I would be way happier if I lost.So please give me some advice or a site or something to go by for a diet.Thanks.

weight loss cardiff answers:

You will lose more body fat eating protein and fat (don’t eat protein alone) than not eating AT ALL. To lose weight fast eat all you want but nothing but meat, eggs, healthy oils, mayo, butter and half an avocado a day (you’ll need added potassium). Keep the calories high and the fat percentage high, at least 65% of calories. Adding in green vegetables & some cheese will continue weight loss but at a slower pace.

If you starve yourself by lowering calories lower than are needed for the body to function, your body will freak out and will want to store every ounce in case it doesn’t get nourished again. You need to give it adequate nourishment so it doesn’t slow your metabolism down to adjust for lower calories.

Simple carbohydrates (sugar, flour, bread, cereal, pasta, potatoes, rice) triggers insulin which can store the calories you eat into fat. The more protein you eat the more the fat burning hormone glucagon is released. The more carbohydrate you eat the more the fat storage hormone insulin is released.

Carbs are addictive and can be disastrous to our health. The best way to break the addiction is NO carbs for 3 days. Make a huge batch of deviled eggs and eat one every time you want “something” have huge omelets for breakfast, with bacon, a lil onion, peppers, mushrooms & cheese. Pork chops for lunch. Get pork rinds and eat them with tuna salad. Steak for dinner. Make a huge sugar free cheese cake for dessert. Eat so much you won’t feel deprived of anything. By the fourth day, your addiction will be gone and you can start making healthy choices.

High insulin levels unbalance other hormones. Controlling your insulin level will balance out other hormones & allow human growth hormone (HGH) to be produced naturally so you will gain lean muscle even without exercise. Any exercise will greatly increase your muscle mass with high HGH levels.

Dr.Atkins was a cardiologist, low carb was a health plan easier sold as a “diet” Read any of his books for easily understandable science. Lutz “Life without Bread” & Taubes “Good calorie, bad calorie” are excellent books that dispel all the nutrition myths.

Reducing body fat and increasing muscle mass will have you in awesome shape in no time. Good luck! I hope this will help you.

Laura asks…

How do I get serious about losing weight?

I have wanted to lose weight for a long time, and right now, I need to for my health because all of the old people in my family have diabetes and I am only 18 but I want to do it now so it wont be passed onto me. And I have tried all kinds of diets. I tried the gum diet. Where you chew gum when you get a craving. I have tried the water diet, and the carb diet. I seem to lose like 40 pounds and then gain it all back. It sucks. I know why. Its because I work and go to school all the time, plus my diet is HORRIBLE, and I am lazy when it comes to going to the gym by myself. I get bored really easily. Its not that I want to wear Britney Spears skank clothes. I want to be healthy. And I want to be healthy before I have a baby. And I want a more exciting sex life. LOL its great but I want to be able to do alot more. But if any of you can help… Please do

weight loss cardiff answers:

Well, you have many reasons why you want to lose the weight. I think the best reason is simply, for your health. Keep in mind that only YOU can do this–you’re in control here.

Instead of a diet, try making a lifestyle change. You know, no more junk foods, fast foods, sodas, sweets and candies. Throw the junk out and don’t buy anymore! Star eating 4-6 small healthy meals each day. Don’t forget about the fruits and veggies!
Drink water! It really does help with weight loss. If you have a soda craving, have a diet caffeine free soda. If it’s not caffeine free, you need to increase your water even more!
Of course, exercise! I hate going to the gym alone too. So instead, I go walking or ride my bike or play a sport—anything! Do what you like to do!

You have many great reasons why you should lose the weight. Don’t forget about those reasons! Keep a positive, I can attitude, set a goal (like I want to lose 7 pounds in 4 weeks) and go for it!! You CAN do this! And, believe me, it gets easier as the days go by!

Remember that a healthy weight loss is 1-2 pounds per week! Also, sometimes it helps to keep a food journal–write down what you eat, when you eat and how many calories you’re taking in. Sometimes we go into shock when we add those calories up at the end of the day, but it helps to see what we need to cut out.

Best of luck to you!☺

Jenny asks…

What can I do to jumpstart my Weight loss?

My name is Ben and i am going to live with my grandparents for 6 months and i want to lose weight their and come back at a max of 250 ponds (I’m 300 now) can anyone give me any tips?…………..Real ones, not just the general. diet and exercise. like Maybe easy‘er exercises that make u lose more weight?
And im already on the atkins, wich i will most likly stay on for life. I already lost 30 pounds so.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Experts say a healthy weight loss is 2 pounds per week.

The misconception is that if you barely eat anything AND work out, you’ll lose weight. It’s might be true, BUT very dangerous/harmful to the body system because if you don’t have enough energy to do the work out, then you’re going to wear your body out and pretty soon, you may end up in a hospital bed. Because you don’t eat, your body will go into minimum metabolism rate, where it will burn as LITTLE fat as possible to retain fuel sources. So by eating lesser, your body will retain that you eat longer and you won’t achieve any weight loss long-term.

Check this site out to see if you should be concerned with losing weight: http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/. It’s your BMI (ratio of your HEIGHT to your WEIGHT), set by the government to the standards for Americans. Healthy weight is not set using age and weight.

What you should do is change your eating habit to a healthier one and start exercising (people tell you this over and over because it WORKS!).

Disclaimer: I don’t recommend any diet to you or anyone, but I just wanted to share my experience. You should talk to your nutritionist/doctor before making any drastic changes to your body.

What I did was I went on an “eating-only-corn-flakes” diet. XD I lost the weight really quickly (~25 lbs). After a 2-3 weeks of eating only corn flakes with regular milk for breakfast/lunch/dinner (NO snacks whatsoever). (You can try it with skim, 1%, or 2% milk to lose even more weight.) I went off the diet and started eating normal, and healthy foods, with A LOT of water and tons of fruits. I’m able to keep off the weight I’ve lost for ~6 years now. At summer camp, I’ve also went on a cereal-salad-and-skim milk “diet”. For breakfast, I would only eat grain cereal with skim milk and drink another glass. For lunch and dinner each day, I had only a salad and two glasses of skim milk per meal. Camp was only 5 days, but I lost a considerable amount of weight for my father to notice my weight loss. XD

Currently, I’ve been exercising on my “air-stepper” at home, and I get on it for 15 minutes each day to get my cardio workout. I take my pulse at 5 min. Intervals for 15 minutes to see if I’m improving. ^_^ Then, I get on my Total Gym and start working on my arms and legs (pulling, pushing, etc.). To tone my abs, I do 200 crunches (I lay on my Total Gym at an incline, so it’s VERY easy and no back strain!); they are much easier than sit-ups. ^_^ Lastly, I do 100 of those “standing-up” crunches. I don’t know what to call them, but I saw it on Hip-Hop Abs. You can see a sample of it here: http://www.beachbody.com/product/fitness_programs/hip_hop_abs.do?code=HIPHOPABSDOTCOM

The lay down crunches and the standing up crunches that I do gave me the flat stomach I have now. ^____^ Very happy with the results. You can do as many as your body can tolerate for ONE day and feel your stomach flatter immediately afterwards (at least for me)! It’s incredible!

If you do not have gym equipment, just jumping around and running place for 15-30 minutes will get you your cardio workout. Eat yogurt, fruits, and other health foods. Drink tons of water and your daily dosage of milk. ^_^

Good luck! 😀

George asks…

Quick question about weight loss. Easy 10 pts?

Maybe i dont get it..I just thought – are you suppost to exericse and burn more calories than you eat? Like if you eat 1000 calores, your suppost to burn 1000 calories in exercise?

weight loss cardiff answers:

This can be a tricky subject. You burn calories with regular activities of daily living (ADL’s).
You should however do above your normal activities for at least 20 minutes a day. Depending on your fitness level you could start with 20 minutes of walking a day and either bump that up to a longer time or a higher intensity of fitness. For example from walking to running or from a leisurely bike ride to a high intensity bike ride.
You shouldn’t really burn more calories than you eat mind you because your body needs fuel just to work.
There are activity guides out there and depending on your age they can give you an idea. None of them however are written in stone.
See this link for some ideas.

Healthy Weight Loss Tips for you
Being able to stay fit is one of the most important aspect to keep in pace with, especially for today’s world which is extremely fast moving. Being unfit or unhealthy simply makes an individual a lot less confident of himself and reduces it considerably. There are certain healthy weight loss tips that could help an individual lose the weight, which helps a lot for beginners especially.

First and foremost, it is important for you to have a consultation with your doctor before jumping or rushing into any exercise program. Keep in mind that the amount of motivation you get is the most important aspect in a fitness program. If you have a friend or a companion, who could work out with you would be great. You could even place ads in your local classified newspapers stating you are looking for partners who you can work out with. Your partners who workout with you also helps you become more responsible when it comes to being able to complete your routine.

Exercise is also one of the healthy weight loss tips that is important for an individual who is thinking of staying fit. As a beginner, you are not required to go in for any exercise routine that is ruthless. You should keep in mind to start slow and slowly increase your schedule, as you get more comfortable. Riding the bike is an amazing way if you want to burn calories as well as have your fun side by side. Swimming is another way of losing weight, which will also help you stay fit and reduce the stress.

Having to maintain a good diet is equally important too and it tops the list of healthy weight loss tips. As a beginner do not avoid any food that you love or stare yourself since this will only make you crave even more. Instead, you should be able to consume your favorite food in little portions. Make sure you drink a lot of water as and when possible. This will help you remain fit as well as bring out the glow on your face.

Instead of consuming three square meals, make sure you switch to smaller meals of 5 to 6 servings. This will not only keep you full but will eliminate all the chances of having any cravings and indulging in eating more than you are supposed to. Make sure you do not skip any meal as well since this will leave you a lot hungrier and you could even end up in binge eating which you are not supposed to. Supplements that promise to help you reduce weight is a very wrong option to opt for. Many of these supplements may not even fulfill your promise and could just make you spend more money than you are supposed to. It could be wise on your part if you devote most of your time to your exercise schedule and meet with an expert dietician who could help you stay on a good and healthy diet instead of making you starve.

This could help any beginner if he simply followed these healthy weight loss tips

How to find a balance while running and trying to lose weight?

I don’t want to go crazy trying to lose weight and running more than I should ,and eating nothing. etc etc.
Don’t get me wrong, I really want to change my life style of eating/ exercising healthy. But i don’t want to go overboard and result in plateauing and burning-out .

How do I accomplish this?

weight loss cardiff answers:

,
There is really no secret to weight loss. All you need to do is eat less calories than your body burns in a day. One thing that is very important is to make sure that you are eating a healthy amount of carbs, proteins, and fats. Adding a 45 minute walk to your day also helps a lot in the weight loss process. There are also supplements that you can use to help give your metabolism a boost as well as add vitamins and anti-oxidants to your diet. One you should check out is the Acai Berry which is considered a Super Food because of its nutrients.

Sandra asks…

How long does it typically take to lose 35 lbs, following a proper diet and exersise regiment?

I plan on losing weight. My goal is 35 lbs, to take me from 165lbs to 130lbs…I will be following a proper diet and exersise regiment…

I am just curious though as to how long I can expect this to take?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Firstly you can lose as much weight as you want in a short time period, however, you will gain it back. I am speaking from experience from someone who has been there done that with fad diets. There is the obvious liposuction, however, the recovery time is 3 – 6 months and it sounds as though that you’re in a rush to lose the weight for possibly an event with no downtime to spare. I am and have been on weight watchers for 2 years and lost 25 lbs. It was a slow and steady race, however, I haven’t gained the weight back ‘cause my diet has been stabilized and so was the weight loss from 0.5 – 1 lb/week.

Remember the weight gain didn’t happen overnight, it happened slowly over time, the same is with proper healthy weight loss, you can’t have/perform miracles over night.

These are some things that I do.

1.Drink lots of water as it kept me full longer.
2.Used an appetite suppressant like hoodie to make sure I don’t go over my daily calorie intake.
3.Did cardio and toning 3 – 4 times a week.
4.Made meal and recipe modifications as I cooked.
5.When I dined out, I made sure that I wasn’t shy about asking the kitchen to make modifications like dressing/sauce on the side, half portion ordered the kids meal etc.
6.Brushing teeth after every meal, the mint acts like an appetite suppressant and without the taste in your mouth, you can easily forget about the food.
7.Never drank diet cola, the aspartame actually made me crave food more for some reason.
8.At work I take a break before lunch and either take the stairs in the building or just general toning without weights. We have a gym at work so I do about 15 minutes of weights which not only gets my blood flowing but releases tension from a**hole customers.
9.Bought snacks in bulk (to save money) and properly measured what a cup or portion was and made individual baggies. There are some snacks on the market that are 100 calorie snacks, however, I find those to be too expensive than just buying in bulk and separating the portions yourself. Also by physically separating them yourself, you get an idea of what a portion is supposed to be and you learn to properly eye ball correct portions.

Chris asks…

How did you lose the weight after the kid?

I was 110 when I gave birth to my child and now I’m a chunky monkey, I’m not over weight but I’d love to lose the weight. I stay at this weight but I wanna be back to 110 or at least close. Any GOOD tips, besides diet and exercise. I do that but I can’t effin lose the weight! Well all would help!

weight loss cardiff answers:

Well, I nursed my babies. Nursing requires an additional 500 calories per day to pull off, so as long as you drink plenty of water, and just eat normally the weight usually comes off fairly quickly and easily. If you can’t nurse the baby, or chose not to- then it really is a matter of time, exercise and diet. It takes a few weeks for the body to shift back to the non-pregnant mode of things, so the weight usually is slow at first. After two months or so though it should be back to normal. Now one word of caution- if you had the baby normally you have had a hip spread that put about an inch on the measurement. That inch isn’t going to disappear, so even if you do lose the weight you may find your skinny bum jeans will not fit. And they won’t ever fit again, either. You also tend to lose a little when the baby gets old enough to start moving around, and you have to keep up with the little darling. Sorry, but there still isn’t any good way to magically take off the pounds.
