I just started running and I’m wondering if there are some good ways to lose weight quicker when I’m running. Like just some wisdom cuz iv never ran to lose weight. Thanks 🙂

Go on longer runs, stay away from sprinting because it will build leg muscle. Longer runs burn more calories

William asks…

Should I be eating a high calorie diet to lose weight?

I heard that if you eat enough calories per day you will lose weight quicker. I am just confused with how many calories I should be eating and how I go about it. I don’t eat any milk products and I dont eat meat, but eat fish. Can anyone suggest what foods I should eat? My calorie calculator suggested 1800 for maintenance, 1400 for fat loss and 1100 for extreme fat loss. Unsure of which number to go by.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Stick to around 1500 to 2000 calories if you are young. As far as calories, salads, turkey, chicken, nuts, are all good for quick weight loss and do not forget the 3 bottles of water on a daily basis. Exercise is also important.

Robert asks…

what is the fastest, most effective diet to lose weight?

I am 18 & am only looking to lose about 10kgs so I can get back down to 48kgs & look good in a bikini. But I find it so hard to get the right diet. I eat the right amount of calories per day but I only lose like 2kgs a month. It’s frustrating & I want to get rid of it quick! Any tips or has anyone had success in losing weight quick?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Average weight loss is only 9-15lbs a year, so this is a long term lifestyle issue not a quick fix. Answers is chock a block with people wanting someone or something to lose weight for them. Unfortunately in case you haven’t heard it before, diets don’t work! Statistically 2 in 3 so called dieters end up heavier.

There is really only one way to sustain weight loss. Less in, more out. It is the second part that is essential, and of course that is also the reason most people fail. You need to do 30-40 minutes of vigorous exercise 5 days a week, FOR LIFE!

Unfortunately the vast majority of people who are desperate to lose weight and say they will do anything, actually mean try any fad diet or swallow any dubious pill, as long as they are not expected to get off the couch. Result? They are doomed to remain fat!

Your Question About Easy Weight Loss

Betty asks…

Does your metabolism slow down while your breastfeeding?

I know that your metabolism slows down while your pregnant in order for your body to suck up as many nutrients as possible. Does your metabolism also slow down while your breastfeeding for the same purpose. If so, could that explain why it’s always harder for me to lose weight while nursing?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Your metabolism doesn’t slow down period in either case, your intestines slow down the peristalsis to allow for greater absorption of nutrients but that’s not your metabolism. When nursing you have lower estrogen levels and relatively higher progesterone levels (in ratio not amount) so it is conceivable your intestines would be slower then as well but they really are not.

Why is it hard to loose weight when nursing? Notice how HUNGRY you are when nursing? It leads to eating, you get enough calories then what is coming in will equal the amount of calories going out.

Thomas asks…

Is there a way to lose weight safely while pregnant?

I know you’re supposed to gain about 25 pounds during your pregnancy, but I was wondering if its safe to lose weight, or at least continue your weight loss work-out during your first trimester. I would like to continue my efforts, but don’t want to do anything harmful. Being healthy is more important than being skinny, right? Thanks for your answers!
Oh, good point, I’m not necessarily overweight. I’m just trying to lose the last 10 pounds and tone up.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Eat smart, and healthy- just don’t diet. Exercising is fine as long as your Doctor hasn’t told you to abstain from it and you are not starting any new intense routines. Swimming or briskly walking for one hour can burn 300-400 calories and can be done safely throughout your whole pregnancy. I personally love walking and I use the Prenatal fitness DVD FitMama. Just be as healthy as you can and you should be fine.

Daniel asks…

Does working out while pregnant help the baby weight come off any faster that if you didn’t work out?

So here’s the deal. Exercising while pregnant has benefits such as stopping extra weight gain, kepping you fit, and keeping the baby healthy. Does it actually aid in weight loss after the baby is born?
What I mean is, will aperson lose weight faster after having a baby if they have been workingout the entire pregnancy as oppose to someone who never worked out? I know there are genetics and what not involved, but just wondering.

weight loss cardiff answers:

I dont know if it will help the weight fall of faster afterwards but it will keep you fit during your pregnancy and in shape to give birth I would just be careful ask your doctor what they think is an ok work out . I am 37 weeks and all she wants me to do now is walk i still sometimes do my pregnancy yoga though . Good luck:)

Your Question About Easy Weight Loss

Helen asks…

how can i lose this weight easily?

okay, i’m 15. i’m 5’2 in a half. 136 lbs. and kyna hippy/thick. not the nasty lookin’ thick, but it’s noticeable. i wanna lose b/c technically i’m overweight, and i really wanna be a healthy weight for my size. how can i lose it easily?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Diet´s don´t help at all,
So I do not recommend you do that,

My mom is a neurologist, and the easiest way to lose weight is to make a balanced healthy ´diet´,

Don´t cut off ALL junk food, it´s bad for your body to not get sugar and things like that,

If you get craving for say, M&M´s, eat a couple, not the whole bag,
there´s also many ways you can reduce high fat foods to healthier and flavorfull meals.

Excersise is not entirely necesary, but it speeds up the lose weight, and it keeps you healthy and it shape, so you can try that too.

I know this because I myself was slightly overweight, thankfully, im now at a ´normal´ size for my height -5´6 and a half, and 142-

Hope it helps~
: D

Losing weight isn’t easy, you have to exercise and eat right, im talking 4 to 6 small meals instead of 3 big meals 5 portions of fruits and vegetables, 8 glasses of water, and a lot of exercising. Take a walk, a jog, jump rope, ride your bicycle and join a sport. Make sure u sweat. Minimum 30 min daily. No junk food which include candy and try to reduce your sugar intake. Make sure you’re always on the move it also takes patience.
Good luck!

Teenage Weight Loss Question?

Teenage Weight Loss Question?
Teenage Weight Loss Question?
Question Details: I want to lose 20 pounds. I am 130 pounds, 5’3”, and 16 years old. I am a size 8. I want to lose 20 pounds and go down to a size 4 at least. I also want to tone up my body for the winter sports season. Does anybody have any ideas for diet and exercise? Please all suggestions welcome. Why does it come so easily for others? I hate sitting with my friends while they are all size twos and eating brownies, cookies, and chips.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Teenagers losing weight can be a dangerous thing. If your body has not fully developed you could be causing harm. Depending on if you have finished growing in height determines whether or not you should try to lose weight. A Dr can tell you this. But if you eat properly and exercise your body will do the rest. Size 4 may not be your ideal size. And because clothing manufactures all vary in their idea of size, you can not judge what SIZE you really are by clothing. If think your body is too big in some places exercise to tone the muscles in those areas. This will burn any fat there. And don’t worry about those supposed size 2’s If they keep eating like that, they will find themselves size 12 by the time they reach adulthood.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Step one * Water –

Before every meal drink 16 ounces of water prior to eating. Doing this can help you lose weight, as you will eat less but still be full. This helps to encourage you to get the recommended amount of water daily and lose weight.

Step two Eat Less Calories Then You Burn –

In order to lose weight quickly you need to eat less calories then your body actually burns. One pound of fat equals 3500 calories, so you need to burn more calories each day in order to lose weight. All during the day, even in your sleep your body is burning calories. You can easily burn more calories then you eat by increasing activity and cutting calories in your daily diet. Just by cutting 500 calories a day and increasing exercise you can lose weight quickly. This is the best way to lose weight and remain healthy. So cut out the bad food and increase the good foods.

Step three * Increase Fiber –

Eating more fiber each day will help to increase weight loss. Include whole grains, raw vegetables, slightly cooked vegetables, fruits, fiber enriched cereals, whole wheat pasta, beans, etc. In the beginning if you eat to much fiber you may experience bloating, cramps and gas, so do it gradually day by day. Also increase the amount of water you drink as it helps your body to digest the fiber more efficiently.

Step 4 Stop Eating Sugary Foods –

Just dropping the sugar from your diet can help you lose weight quickly. Make sure that you stay away from it all together if you want to lose weight quickly. This means no sugar in your coffee, on your cereals, or eating that candy bar!

* Cut the carbs from your diet. Carbohydrates turn into sugar inside our body’s and makes you hold onto body weight and fat. Omitting carbs from your diet can help you drastically drop the unwanted pounds. These days there are many alternatives to diets without carbs that are tasty and nutritious.

* Increase fiber into your diet.

* Incorporate fruits and vegetables into your diet.

* Make sure you eat your dairy items. You can choose to have low fat or even fat free milks and yogurt’s.

Step 5 Watch Your Portion Size –

Many people have no concept of the amount of food that hey should be eating. Here are some helpful tips about portion sizes…
3 ounces of meat, fish, chicken, etc. Is about the size of the palm of a woman’s hand or a deck of playing cards.
An ounce of cheese is about the size of your thumb.
A teaspoon of butter is the about the size of your thumb tip.
Learning the correct portions that you should consume can greatly improve your weight lose.

* Stay Away From Fried Foods –

* Watch the calories, they count when you are trying to lose weight. Stick to a diet within a certain range of calories consumption ideal for you.

Step 6 Exercise –

Many of us may feel that we simply do not have the time to incorporate exercise int your busy lifestyle. That is just an excuse! There are many ways to get the exercise that you need. When you are at work take the stairs instead of the elevator, or park a little farther then normal so you walk farther. Instead of going out to the movies where you just sit, do something physical like bowling, golfing, dancing, etc. Every extra bit of exercise helps!

Remember that any diet that promises you a fast and easy way to lose weight without even trying, is a fake! They are relying on the hopeful ones that want to believe there is a miracle cure to lose weight out there to get themselves rich. They are selling you a fantasy and that s the bottom line.

Daniel asks…

Colon cleanser for teenager??!?!?!?

Hey I’m a teenager girl my weight is 150 and I’m 5’1 I wanna lose 5-10 pounds maybe even more… So my question is.. How much will I lose?? Is it safe?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Yes you can lose weight with cleanser, you can easily lose 4-5 pounds with colon cleanser, but if you want to lose more than 5 pounds then you have to do the workout also.

It is completely safe if you choose the right product. Always select a product which are made up of natural herbs, plant roots. More the product is herbal, less is the side effects;

some time before i have tried one product, which is good and found efficient for detoxification. As per my experience it is delicate with our system.
