Helen asks…
Is there anyway i could lose weight without exercise?
Yes I know silly question, but I’m in school right now 5 days a week in a radiography program and the studying is tough and leaves me with little or no time to exercise or go to the gym like I used to. I don’t want to get skinny I just don’t want to gain weight (which happens very easily to me). I’m trying to eat right but sometimes its not enough. Any suggestions, serious ones please. Thank you. P.S. I’m 24 yrs old, 135 lbs and 5’1 if that has any significance.

How I Lost Weight
By the way, I’m a 14 year old girl.
1). A NO carb diet. This isn’t Atkins. Atkins is a LOW carb diet. What I did was cut out carbs completely. These are the only things I ate: Steak, Grilled Chicken, Ham, Turkey, Eggs, Sugar Free Jello, Swiss Cheese and Pepper Jack Cheese. This is what I drank: Water, Diet Soda and Crystal Light Drink Mixes. You obviously don’t have to eat EVERYTHING I listed, but that’s the most variety you’ll get. If you hate meat and what not (Like I do) then it’s going to be hard. But it’s worth it! I went from 199 to 165 in a blink of an eye! And you need to take a multivitamin on this cause you won’t have much energy. Oh and in like 2 weeks I had lost my sugar cravings COMPLETELY, I wasn’t even hungry!
2). Restrict calories. This got me from 165 to 150 FAST (I missed carbs alot so I changed diets). I ate exactly 1200 calories a day. If you don’t have the calorie count then don’t eat it, NO GUESSING. I only ate processed foods cause they told me the calories. It sounds unhealthy but it isn’t. And be exact, at the end of the day make sure you’ve eaten 1200 calories. Not 1160, not 1245. 1200. Eat small portions, every 2-3 hours. I think that’s what helped me the most.
3). This isn’t really a diet, more of starvation, BUT it worked. It got me from 150 to 144 in like 3 days. Make ice cubes with any low/no calorie/carb drink mix. When you get hungry, just suck on them.
And try to EXERCISE. If you can only do a little, try anyway, then gradually work towards more. GOOD LUCK 🙂
Steven asks…
Can I lose weight easily without counting calories?
I’ve lost just about 10 pounds this summer already by counting calories and exercising about an hour a day.
The thing is, I HATE counting calories! I love making my own recipies and crazy kinds of foods where you have just a bunch of different ingrediants (or from cook books) where you have no idea what the calories are. I could count the calories of each ingrediant but it’s exhausting!
I was wondering that if I just bump up my workout to be more than an hour (like 2 hours, and trust me I love to exercise) and just eat whatever I want (as long as I’m not OVER EATING) would you find it to be effective.
I tried it yesterday and it was so much easier not to have to worry! What do you think?
weight loss cardiff answers:
Yes you can! I am at the moment, all I do is eat healthy stuff and don’t over eat. Don’t eat whatever you want, still watch what you eat! I hate counting calories, it involves weighing stuff out, keep tally etc. There’s no need, it’s easier to do without
Maria asks…
How can I keep my figure firm and toned looking without losing anymore weight?
I am female. I am skinny and lose weight easily. I like to eat healthy foods. I’d like to incorporate exercise to my daily routine but I seem to lose weight so easily. What sort of physical activity can I do to stay firm and toned?
