# dont skip meals eat every 4 hours & eat 3 healthy small meals & 2 healthy snacks instead 3 big meals
# Eat when you are hungry & eat slowly, chew more!
# Reduce portions by using smaller plates & bowls (9 inch diameter instead of 11+ inch)
# Eat 9 handfuls of vegetables more than fruits each day also eat 1 small handful nuts
# you have to learn about calories you should take, look & learn label on sodium,sugar,fat,carb,calorie and read ingredients
# Avoid trans fat in label (Avoid partially hydrogenated oils,Shortening, palm kernel oil and coconut oil) and saturated fats at all cost

Sugar, sugar, sugar. The #1 killer for trying to lose belly fat, get a 6 pack, or achieving that flat, tight, sexy stomach. Avoid high fat foods (butter,margarine, cheese, milk ) go for low fat
try to avoid processed or refined carbohydrates
# Drink one or two glasses of water before a meal to help fill you stomach with fewer food calories
# Eat less fat ,sugar and your sodium (salt) recommends less than 2,300 milligrams of sodium daily—that’s about 1 teaspoon of salt. Our bodies’ needs (about 1,500 milligrams) .
#Fifteen percent of your calories should come from protein, 25 to 35 percent from fat and the rest from carbohydrates.

Also, cooking medium heat is ideal but oil alone is not recommended.
# All fresh vegetables and fruits, such as green leafy vegetables and greens, broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, carrots, tomatoes, etc. Eat plenty of fiber-rich vegetables (dark leafy greens—good; corn–not so good), beans (all of them), and fruit (apples, pears, peaches, and berries have a lower GI than tropical fruits, like papaya and mangoes).

Losing weight???
i am 5’7″ and weigh 10 stone (also im 19 yr old female) i want to get down to 8 stone….. a few questions:
will 8 stone be too skinny? im slim now but want to lose some weight
and what is the quickest way to lose weight?
thanks guys
whats the ideal weight for my height??
weight loss cardiff answers:
Check your bmi http://www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk/magazine/interactive/bmi/index.aspx
first off – if you are thin – & your height/weight sounds proportionate to me – losing 2 stone would be mad!! I am 2 inches shorter than you and weigh 9st 9 & am a size 8-10.
To maintain your current weight you should eat 2000kcals per day. So to lose weight you need to restrict this to 1500kcals. But make sure you eat no less than 1500kcals as this will slow your metabolism & you won’t lose anything.
If you are restricting your diet it’s also a good idea to take a multivitamin to ensure you are getting all your vital nutrients.
If you cut your cals back to 1500 per day & do exercise 2-3 times per week you will lose 1-3lbs per week easily.
Drink plently of water, try & increase the amount of fruit & veg you eat & swap white bread for brown bread, full cream milk to skimmed milk etc.
Personally i don’t think you need to lose anything – you might just need to tone up what you have already – i would recommend a class called body pump – this uses weights to tone you up & burn lots of calories (www.lesmills.com) – give your local gym a call to see if they run it. I did this class twice a week & could see big difference fast!!

Losing Weight?
how can i lose weight off my face easily
thanx
weight loss cardiff answers:
Not everyone can get plastic surgery.
It’s expensive and not every one is over age.
I honestly think though losing weight off your face comes with losing weight everywhere.
Notice how someone you havn’t seen in a loooong time loses ALOT of weight from their face and all?
Doubt they did face exercises, because i don’t think their is such a thing.
I may be wrong.
But I have just never heard of such a thing:)
