What’s the best way to get back into working out to lose weight?
I’ve been pretty idle for the past 6-8 months, and I’ve put on a few extra pounds. I’ve tried getting back into shape and lose weight by running/biking, but I’m finding it MUCH HARDER to run/bike than I used to. I keep thinking this is a product of my past inactivity and extra weight, but it seems way too challenging now to get back into shape. As a result, I have become inconsistent with my workouts now because they seem way too difficult, and seem to have litte effect. Any suggestions on ways to boost my energy and get back into a program that will work?

Start with easier workouts and slowly build up the amount of work that you do. This will build up your stamina slowly and before you know it you will be doing more than you use to do. Keep track of what you do for your workouts. Never increase your workouts too much from day to day. Slowly ramp up the amount that you do. To boost your energy, about one hour before you workout have an energy drink consisting of several kinds of fruit, some 100% fruit juices and some milk. The milk will cause your body to burn up the carbs slower. And within 30 to 45 minutes after your workout have another smaller energy drink to replenish the glycogen in your muscles that you have burned up by exercising.

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

Thanks!
weight loss cardiff answers:
Eat well, drink lots of water, do cardio exercises, or activities that keeps your heart pumping.
Choose foods with low saturated fats, watch calorie intake, run, bike, like I said anything that will keep you moving and your heart pumping fast because it burns fat and calories.
Eat plenty of greens, vegetables, fruits, legumes, beans, and eat small portions but throughout the day.
Running should be an hour at most, though the more the better.
Biking should be longer because you should bike more than a mile.
You could do ab workouts to support your body and the weight it lost, if your lose weight you’ll probably go a bit flabby so you need to do repetition workouts (thats if your working on arms or legs) and for abs, the workout should be 30 min. To an hour.
Remember to watch what you eat, no saturated fats, high calorie foods, not munching at or after 9, light meal toward end of day (dinner).

How to lose weight without running?
Okay I reallllllly wanna lose weight, but the problem is I can’t run (everytime I do, I get sick and like almost pass out, but that’s because my medical problems like to fuck up my life.) is there a way I can lose weight without running? I do eat healthy, walk on the treadmill (at least 45 min or more like every other day) and lift weights (started with dumbells, dont wanna hurt myself.) I also do some squats, planking, sit ups and crunches. What else can I do? Thanks! nothing rude please!
i forgot to mention… i LOVE fruit and enjoy veggies, but hate a lot of stuff. I mostly eat fruit… i know its not healthy but i can get sick from other stuff. i also drink ALOT of water, i love that, and dont eat that much junk food (i dont really like it…) i dont eat much, only when i feel my stomach growling and water doesnt help. or if i feel sick, then i may eat like a few cucumbers or strawberries. thats pretty much it. thanks!

Good you are making an ACTUAL Effort, CONGRATULATIONS!!
1) Write down EVERYTHING you put into your mouth for 1 WEEK.
2) Plan on ACTUALLY eating 4-6 servings of fruits and Veggies per DAY.
3) INCREASE your water intake, Decrease, or eliminate carbonated or SUGARY drinks, FORGET “Energy” drinks!
***4) Plan EXERCISE (even if it is just walking a measured distance) Everyday. Helps get you into a habit!
5) Start a journal on WHAT ‘works’ (aka – you like – to eat, drink, do, and want to do) for YOU!
BEST OF EVERYTHING to YOU!!!
