Your Question About Easy Weight Loss

Nancy asks…

looking for a penpal to help keep me motivated to diet and exercise…anyone interested?

I am a 36 year old Mother of two teenagers. I need to lose weight and get in shape. I seem to do better when I have someone to do it with. Anyone interested? I have some gf’s here who would do it with me, but I need someone who is objective and not someone who is going to persuade me easily to go off the diet and exercise…

Chris asks…

what’s a good balanced diet for a teenager?

So, my little sister is wanting to lose weight but all she’s doing is having water all day long and eating one meal a day. I know this is unhealthy and it may be bad for her so I want to find a good, balanced diet to give her. I told her I’d take her to the nutritionist but she said no cause she feels ashamed. So, she’s still in school and she takes lunch from home but she can’t take a big, elaborate lunch you know. I just want something good for her that will make her lose weight easily but also keep her healthy. Is there any site where I can find that? Or idk, good advice for it? I worry about her, she’s my little one after all haha.

Maria asks…

Am I a suitable weight for a teenager?

Hi Guys,
I was wondering if my current weight is appropriate for a teenager. Let me give you a little background information : I am 17, 1.87m tall (6’1.5″) and weigh 95kg (~209 lbs). I am very active sportingly – I play high level Squash and Tennis regularly, and bicep curl 20kg for 15 reps every day.However, using any BMI calculator for my details, I come in at obese/severely overweight – yet I am physically fit (I can play intensive squash for 1hr without tiring excessively, and regularly go on hikes of ~20km a day without struggle), only have a small amount of stomach fat and do not tire easily. My endurance could do with improving, as could my core strength, but apart from that I am physically fit. My question is, therefore, am I a suitable weight for my age and height, given that I am still growing and can exercise perfectly well?
I would prefer to lose some weight as I am not as slim as I would like to be, but I am wondering if it is of any danger to my health/wellbeing if I do not. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks.

weight loss cardiff answers:

A bmi calculator is just a rough guide. It doesn’t take into account your activity level. By the sounds of it, you probably have a lot of muscle, and muscles weigh a lot more than fat. So you’ll weigh more, and your bmi may be high, but you are probably completely healthy and a good weight for someone as sporty as yourself. The only way to really know is to see what your body fat percentage is. So just ask your doctor if you’re really worried. But I think you are fine.

Lisa asks…

What is the percent yield in this experiment?

Diethyl ether is made from ethanol according to the following reaction:

2 C2H5OH —> (C2H5)2O + H2O

In an experiment starting with 517 gram of ethanol gave 391 gram of diethyl ether. What was the percent yield in this experiment.

weight loss cardiff answers:

MM of ethanol = 46.068 g ; moles = 517 / 46.068 = 11.22

moles of ether expected from the equation = 5.611

MM of the ether = 74.12 g ; moles = 391 / 74.12 = 5.28

% yield = 5.28 / 5.56 = 95.0%

good result !!!

Donald asks…

WOW, what ether is the kind people used to drink?

There is to many types and I am doing research.

What kind is the drinkable kind?
Plain ether or something like diethyl ether?

weight loss cardiff answers:

No ether can be safely taken orally. Diethylether used to be an anethestic, but was inhaled. Ethyl alcohol is the drinkable ALCOHOL. The diethylether has the structure CH3-CH2-O-CH2-CH3; the alcohol CH3-CH2-OH.

George asks…

What is the reason for the fact that the solvent used in an extraction should have relatively low b.p.?

What do you think is the reason for the fact that the solvent used in an acid-base extraction should have relatively a low boiling point?

Also, suppose you used dimethylformamide (a more polar and high boiling solvent) instead of diethyl ether, what would happen to the extraction process? (the compounds to be isolated are benzoic acid, 4-chloroaniline and napthalene).

Thanks so much!

weight loss cardiff answers:

The use of a solvent with lower boiling point is more adviceable for the extraction purposes. Suppose you are already finished the solvent extraction and want to eliminate the solvent from the extract. You are just going to heat it and since the solvent has lower boiling point than the pure extract, it will evaporates first leaving the pure extract.

Sandra asks…

How can a 13 year old boy lose weight and get abs?

I am 13 and 5′ 7″ as well as weighing 134 pounds. How can I lose weight quick and easy and get abs.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Jogging is an excellent exercise because it let you lose weight
evenly throughout your whole body. If you want to lose weight in
specific areas, you should target them with exercises. If they are
your problem areas, they will be very difficult to tone. You will have
to work double on them. The best approach is this:
1. Lower/control your daily calorie intake (control for normal
weight, lower for overweight).
2. Run/jog to lower your overall body fat percentage.
3. Target your problem areas with exercises.
An excellent exercise, you can do it in front of your TV: sit on a
stool, and put your toes under something (piece of heavy furniture,
for example). In your hands hold a little dumbbell. Please, make sure
that it is not very heavy, start with one kilo, for example, or you
will damage your back and spine! Slowly move the upper part of your
body back, until it’s parallel with the ground. Stop for a second and
move it back to the sitting position. Repeat ten times. Every week add
to the number of repetitions. You will see the results in a week,
guaranteed! You will see or feel under the fat – if you have any – six
pack and muscles. Dumbbells do wonders. Much better than these
crunches – I came up to three hundreds and there was no results AT
ALL. With the dumbbells you will see it in a week.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Concentrate on losing/burning fat. When you lose fat you will achieve the toned look, look slimmer, leaner and overall better. You can try P90X , but P90X costs $125 and it takes 90 days for results. A better choice and even a faster and free program is the specialized fat burning program called the Fat X 12 fat burning workout and diet program. It’s a 12 day workout and diet plan you can cycle as many times a you want. The workout videos and diet are free on the Fat X 101 blog. It’s an awesome program to burn fat and tone up! Good luck!

How to loose weight before school starts again?

I’m 13 and 105 pounds. I want to be at least 95 lbs. Before school starts again. Any weight loss tips? And does skipping meals help loose weight?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Calorie intake is important but so is the amount of calories you burn a day.

To lose weight healthily, you need to eat consistently to keep your metabolism active and maintain a highly active lifestyle by doing some walking and lite running.

Skipping meals is not healthy for someone your age especially and it isn’t necessary.

Eat right, stay active, and you should feel great and develop control over your weight.
