What is a good easy weight loss diet?

Im a very fit person, but lately I have stopped playing sports and sit on my ass all day. I gained like 3 pounds in 2 weeks. It’s been raining here all day everyday for the month so im not going outside.and I have been doing pushups and stuff but nothing seems to work so maybe its what I am eating. What should I do??

weight loss cardiff answers:

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.

Charles asks…

Easy diet for fast weight loss?

I’m a 15 year old girl, 5’6” and 180 pounds. I really would like to be down to 135-150 at the end of March. So, about 2 months. I have just started taking fat burner pills and I run everyday. I have basketball practice in the morning 5 days a week, then on some days, I come home, run for 15 minutes then do a workout I found in Seventeen Magazine. I really want to lose belly fat most. I have a lot of fat under my breast that I would love to get rid of first.. Then just stomach fat, and inner thigh fat. What else can I do to lose my weight goal before April? :/ I need anything with fast results!

weight loss cardiff answers:

Fast results in general don’t happen too often, I apologize. For your diet you just need to choose foods that are more on the healthier side and have smaller meals. Cardio is a really good thing for weight loss but you may want to work more things into your routine. You should strengthen your whole body for the weight loss to be significant. Realistically you can’t just lose fat in one area of your body. Try working a medicine ball and weights into your routine to strengthen the muscle. Work on your abs too, you need to work on your WHOLE BODY. You could see a personal trainer too if you want really good results, it’s better than just doing the ones in Seventeen magazine.

Sharon asks…

how can i lose weight easily(and fast)?

i am getting ready for school and i want o look me best. i want to lose enough weight to look good. i am 5’5 and weigh 122 punds. i want to lose like 5 or6 pounds in like a week or two. Please i want useful healthy things(exersise) thanks

weight loss cardiff answers:

WHEN to eat for losing weight…

• Eat (at least) three times a day.
Because when you eat only once a day, your metabolism gets slower than it already is! That’s the main reason. Sounds funny, but to lose weight… You must eat (the right things, of course)
• Eat low-fat, high-fiber foods such as salads and vegetable pastas.
• Your last meal should be before 18:00. Try.
OK, one apple after 18:00
• Don’t starve
Starvation is not good for losing weight, nor your health.
Starvation is the worse thing you can do in a weight loss diet.
• Try oatmeal instead of cornflakes for breakfast–eating oatmeal can help reduce cholesterol levels, and its high fiber content will keep you full longer.

WHAT to drink for losing weight…

• Drink 6-8 glasses of water every day !
Can be tap, plain, mineral, sparkling. I just love mineral sparkling water!
This improves your bowel, reduces the “hunger” sensation, and hydrates your skin. Your skin will look much better after the first weeks!
Don’t believe the slogan “water makes me fat”. Beside being stupid… You might get into serious troubles with your kidneys.
• Drink ONLY natural juices, freshly squized!
Don’t drink Coca Cola, Pepsi, Spite etc. During the diet. Even lite or light versions.
I thought this was not possible for me to achieve. Now… I don’t even LIKE them anymore!
Nothing compares to the the smell of a fresh natural fruit juice! Not speaking about health…
• Avoid those vending machines by carrying around your own healthful foods and leaving pocket change at home.

Exercise for losing weight…

• If you want quicker results – exercise would be good.
• Don’t just sit in front of the TV and eat peanuts…
I guarantee THIS won’t work for your weight loss…
• Start swimming. Swimming is an excellent exercise to get involved with, since it increases blood flow and uses muscles we don’t regularly use. Start a swimming program and try to do it 3 times a week. You will feel excellent and rejuvenated.
• Choose an exercise program that you enjoy, and don’t shun the unconventional. For instance, did you know that regular vigorous dancing is exercise too?
• Also Cardiovascular exercises such as running, jogging, or aerobics will help you lose that unwanted belly fat. Weight training can also help you lose body fat because the more muscle mass you have, the more ability your system has to burn body fat.

Good luck!

Mandy asks…

How can i lose weight easily?

I am a younger teenager and i need to lose a lil weight for dance, especially in my thighs…how can i lose weight fast to become really skinny?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Increase your fiber intake. Like I mentioned, the body needs a lot of fiber. So try to include in your diet as many fruits and vegetables as you can.
Go easy on tea and coffee. Tea and coffee are harmless by themselves. It’s when you add the cream and sugar that they become fattening. Did you know that having a cup of tea or coffee that has cream and at least two cubes of sugar is as bad as having a big piece of rich chocolate cake’

Sandy asks…

how can i lose weight efficiently and fast?

ill be 14 in march.im 5″5 and im about 140 lbs and i want to lose weight. what are some exercises that i can do around the house to lose weight fast and easily?
and for the people giving me sites to order tea and acai and pills thank you for the thought but my mom is not going to let me use diet pills or order anything off the web. i just need exercises that work fast and efficiently im not talking like 5 lbs in a day but maybe like 10 in a month or something i want to lose about 30 pounds so exercises please

weight loss cardiff answers:

“Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Drinking eight glasses of water is almost like a must. And do not forget to drink water in the morning, the moment you wake up. In fact this is one of the most rapid weight loss tips that the dieticians suggest to the people.
Have organic foods for the breakfast like apples, bananas, plain yogurt, tomatoes, carrots, peppers, raw honey, wild smoked salmon, and so on.
Keeping a track on the watch, go for an hour walk. It need not be power walking, but definitely it should be non-stop walk and that’s for sure, in a couple of days only, you’ll start finding the difference in you.
Another tip regarding how to lose weight fast, easy and safe is that you should have your dinner about 4-5 hours before going off to sleep.
The two-point program that will ensure the ultimate success is: regular exercise and balanced diet.
Don’t depend upon fat burning diet supplements. They wont go a long way in helping you sustain your reduced kilos.
Soft drinks cannot benefit you in any way. They contain 150 empty calories, so if you substitute one bottle of soft drink with water each day, it will do wonders for you. It will enable you to lose about 16 lbs per year.
Sometimes boredom becomes a cause of overeating, so keep yourself busy.
If you want to seriously control your weight, then you have to stop yourself from getting lured into trying tempting foods.
As important is to pay attention to the fact that we eat the right food, equally vital is to keep a watch on the quantity. Without altering your diet plan, even if you’ll reduce 5-10% of your consumption, it will prove beneficial.
Eat slowly so that you can get a feeling that you have had enough food and your tummy is full. Eat slowly and fully relish the taste.”

Also here is a web site that tells you what kind of excercise is good for you 🙂

Daniel asks…

is giving up soda an easy weight loss plan?

my dad says if i gave up soda, i could loose a lot of weight (in a “long” period of time) so… if i gave up soda for like, 3 months, about how much would i loose?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Giving up soda is a great way to cut back.
Soda has a ton of sugar that clogs arteries and its just really bad for you. Its hard to say how much weight you will lose because every1’s body is different and I don’t know what other foods you eat….
But maybe a few pounds

Maria asks…

Why do people think that weight loss is easy? That they can pop a pill and never break a sweat?

Im so tired of peole whining that they want to lose weight, which pill should they take.The key to weight loss is diet and exercise.If you work out, great!You have to keep pushing yourself or you won’t get anywhere.I just don’t understand why people think that it’s going to be easy to burn calories.Fad diets don’t work and neither do pills.Is that really so hard to understand?You didn’t gain the weight overnight, you’re not going to lose it that way.Let’s also not forget that yo-yo dieting hurts your body in the long run.But that’s all for them to figure out.Let the pill-poppers have a heart attack when their heart rate gets up too high.They have been warned.
I know all the reasons people think it’s easy like tv ads and such. I just don’t understand the psychology behind it. Why are we programmed in this country to want everything RIGHT NOW? Anything worth having is worth fighting for, IMO.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Hey hun….i think you have said whats been on a lot of peoples minds in this forum….i also think that a lot of people look at it as somethin’ like..oh i think im gonna loose some weight and see how fast it melts off…then get discouraged cause it doesn’t…i have learned from personal experience that weight loss is not just something to do for a few weeks and then drop it….its a commitment…even if you ever get to your idea body style then you have to keep working to stay there…it takes years of hard work sweat and sacrifice to get in great physical shape…there is no need in pills or creams or even low carb diets because your body will loose the weight if you will feed it right and get off your butt….in other words getting fit is NOT for the faint of heart….love daisy

Sandra asks…

Fast and easy weight loss diet and plan?

I’d really like to lose 40 pounds in a healthy, cheap, efficient way, any ideas?

weight loss cardiff answers:

To do this you will need to change your outlook on food, exercise, and lifestyle, and begin to incorporate healthier habits into your daily routine. The best approach to accomplish your weight loss goal is through first creating small very achievable goals. 40 pounds can seem impossible if you break down your goal into daily, weekly and monthly. You will stay motivated, see results and be intrack to reach your ultimate goal. Checkout this beginners guide to lose weight at zeboston.com.

Good luck on your quest.

Joseph asks…

I’m trying to lose roughly 5 lbs or 2% body fat but it doesn’t seem that most weight loss plans work for me?

I’m an athlete- I race mountain bikes and do triathlons. I’m also a vegetarian. I’ve found it difficult not only to maintain proper nutrition while training, but I would really like to lose some weight but have found that most weight loss plans don’t take into consideration the phsyical demands of a competitive vegetarian athlete. Any suggestions?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Lose weight by modifying your meals

Many people find that eating a couple of small snacks throughout the day helps them to make healthy choices at meals. A fattening breakfastof bacon and eggs or a pastry can be replaced with yogurt, oatmeal, high-fiber,low-sugar cereals; or fresh fruit or fruit smoothies. Look forhealthy, delicious meals online or in your cookbooks, and create amenu for the week. Make sure that your meal plan reduces your totalcalorie intake: you’re not going to lose weight if you consume thesame amount of calories by eating different foods. Make a list ofwhat you’ll need for these meals, and — except for a few snacks,of course — don’t stray from your list when you get to the market.

Exercise moderately

Richard asks…

Any weight loss plans of your own that have worked for you?

I’m 16 and have been over weight since I was about 12.
I’ve tried weight watchers, curves, etc.
My thing is once it starts to get boring, I sort of lose interest in all of it.
I have low self-esteem, no determination or willpower.

Does anyone have an exercise plan or eating plan that they have come up with themselves and has helped them significantly.

This will be the LAST summer I want to be overweight.

If you can help, I would be greatly blessed 🙂

Thanks

weight loss cardiff answers:

I know it’s overused but exercise(i’m on 12-18 hrs/week but you don’t really need that much…you only need about 30 minutes each day) and a sensible diet(i’ve been a vegetarian for years, if you aren’t you could try it out). As long as you are not cutting any foods totally away from your diet(ie. Carbs, fats, etc) just make sure you eat plenty of vegetables and fruits, whole grains(good carbs), and everything you want, as long as you do it in small portions.

Sandy asks…
