Mandy asks…
Can you lose weight without strenuous exercise?
I want to lose about 20 lbs in about a month. I am 12, about 5 ft, and weigh 110 lbs. Can I do this by simply eating less? Like, can I lose weight without having to go on a tredmill or something like that. What are some good exercises to do?
weight loss cardiff answers:
I checked it up on-line and a 5 foot twelve year old who weighs 110 is at a healthy weight. You have a BMI(body mass index) of 21.5. And that’s completely healthy! And unhealthy BMI would be over wither over 25( which means you are overweight) or under 18 which means that you are underweight. So if you eat normal portions and drink a lot of water you will continue to stay at a healthy weight. I suggest that you may want to take a sport like soccer if you want to have some good excessive. Or offer your mom to take your siblings or the dog on a walk.
Sandra asks…
Can you lose weight using Hydroxycut hardcore without exercising?
I was wondering if you can lose weight by just taking the pills alone without exercising.
weight loss cardiff answers:
No. No diet pill will work miracles. It tells you on the bottle that it will only work with diet and exercise – which should tell you that the diet and exercise are what are really making you lose weight.
James asks…
I have been dieting and exercising for years and have not lost much weight?
I don’t know how much I weigh either way I’m still fat and can’t fit ino my clothes. I can’t afford t see a doctor so I won’t I’m tired of running and sweating for hours everyday and nothing happening I eat one meal a day most days and take a multivitamin and b complex. Do you have any tips or know how I can lose weight without exercising because it’s not working so I’m not doing it I’d rather just change my diet. What should I eat?
weight loss cardiff answers:
It’s because you’re eating only one meal a day.
You use 2000 calories a day just living, then use more calories to move. The maximum calorie deficit you should have a day is 1000 calories. This is the largest deficit you should have while on a weight loss program is 1000 calories because it’s large enough that you will lose weight at a fast rate but not slow down you resting metabolic rate. It can also slow down when you don’t eat a regular times during the day. The reason you don’t want to slow down your metabolism is because a faster metabolism will burn more calories when you’re not exercising, and when you do exercise it will increase the amount of calories you burn afterwards, making it so much easier to keep the weight off. Because you’re only eating one meal a day which has around 300-400 calories? And exercising you have a deficit of about 2000 calories a day and your body thinks it’s starving. It’s curently eating your muscle and reproductive system and holding onto fat for as long as it can and will only start depleating fat stores when your muscles are too weak.
You need to eat around 1500 calories a day, panned out over 3 meals and two snacks. Eat your meals at the same time everyday. Eat mostly vegetables and wholegrain breads, rice and cereals and still allow yourself one serve of lean meat or high protein alternative and two serves of low fat dairy products a day. Good snacks include a piece of fruit, a handful of unsalted nuts or a few wholegrain crackers with low-fat dip.
I know that counting calories is annoying, but you can go on www.calorieking.com and they have the nutritional content of almost every food. Makes it a lot easier than keeping all the packaging aside.
