Your Question About Easy Weight Loss

Susan asks…

What’s the best way to lose fat without gaining weight?

What’s the best way to lose fat without gaining weight? I started exercising again to lose weight (about 2 weeks ago) and I read somewhere you can’t lose fat from a certain area, you have to tone your entire body. So when I started working out again, I gained weight instead of losing weight, could it be muscle weight? Because I really want to lose fat and not gain muscles. It’s really strange because I used the exact same workout I did last time and I lose 2 pounds every week, in just one week I seemed to have gone from 115 to 118. All I want is to lose my big belly.

Muscle weighs more than fat, but if you want to lose the fat first and then gain a little muscle instead of changing your fat to muscle while still staying the same size, i suggest eating the same amount, but healthier foods and doing more of a cardio (cardiovascular) work-out (like running, jumping jacks, jump roping, speed walking, etc) instead of muscle-toning work-outs. Good luck!!!!

Lisa asks…

How long will it take to lose weight if i starve my self?

I really want to lose weight fast in like 2 weeks.

weight loss cardiff answers:

… Really? You’re really asking that?

If you starve yourself, you’ll -gain- weight because your body goes into starvation mode, starts retaining water and all kinds of other things. You’ll be sick and miserable.

If you really want to lose weight, go exercise, eat less processed foods, drink the full 8 glasses of water a day.

How much weight do you need to lose?

James asks…

What should I eat and do to lose weight in 2 weeks?

I’m a 13 overweight boy and I’m trying to lose weight in 2 weeks. I play basketball and go cycling like 3-4 times for 30 minutes each. I usually eat bread and butter for breakfast and eat rice and peas/beans for lunch and dinner. What am I doing wrong and what should I be doing right? Exact details on what I should eat please. Thanks.

weight loss cardiff answers:

When you are losing weight, you should exercise and diet together.
If you exercise without dieting, you will get bigger appetite, which
will lead to increase of weight, or muscle grow
underneath the fat layer, and make you bulkier. If you diet without
exercising, you will become flabby and will have excess skin. For
diet, go wheat free. No pasta, pizza, bread and so on. And no food
after 7 p.m. People achieve marvellous results with it. Depending on
your initial weight, you can drop upwards from 20 pounds a month. If
you don’t eat wheat then you don’t eat all those sticky, fatty goey
cakes, you don’t eat junk food, and you don’t eat biscuits. But your
diet is still balanced. It costs nothing, and you do not have to
calculate points or to buy special meals or plans. For exercising,
start with walking, and then switch to running/jogging. Running is the
most efficient and calorie-burn exercise ever. If you are overweight a
lot, walk first or you may have health complications (heart attack,
disjointed bones and so on). Weight lifting is a good means to target
your problem areas for men and women. It’s not necessarily to become a
bodybuilder or even join a gym – a couple of dumbbells will help you
to target your problem areas (stomach, butt, legs, arms, chest).
