Richard asks…
Can you give me some examples of healthy meals that will help me lose weight?
I am 215 pounds and I need to lose weight quick! I need some easy ideas for breakfast, lunch and dinner!

I eat a lot of dishes cooked with veggies. Also, I use ground turkey instead of ground beef for everything. Any pastas have to be whole wheat. I cut out breads almost entirely. I make taco bowls…. Ground turkey with taco seasoning, lettuce, chili beans, no fat cheddar, tomatoes, and salsa. Simmer chicken breasts in broth with some seasonings and serve with mushrooms. Check out allrecipes.com for some lo-cal recipes. You can make it even more lo-cal by using fat free ingredients. Use calorieking.com to keep track of the calories in what you cook with. Find a good calorie needs calculator and figure out how many cals you can have in a day to lose weigh. I use http://www.healthstatus.com/cbc.html but there are lots of others out there. For example, I need to stay at 1200 cals a day to lose 1-2 lbs a week. I usually have two pieces of lo-fat wheat toast with I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter for breakfast (80 cals), an espresso with sugar (20 cals), a Healthy Choice meal for lunch (300 or fewer cals), a Special K snack bar in the afternoon (90 cals), which leaves me almost 600 cals for dinner. One serving of that taco bowl is less than 500 cals, so I can have a 100 cal cookie pack for dessert! It is a lot of math, but after gaining almost 30 lbs with my hubby and losing 18 of it the last 2 months, it is worth it! I only work out 1-3 times a week. Good luck.

How can a 14 year old girl lose weight quick?

Cardio vascular exercise and low carb intake is the quickest and easiest way. I am a personal trainer and I can tel you this is a very quick method for your body needs lots of fuel to function. It uses carbs and stores extra into fat. If your body needs it more when you exercise and you don’t eat lots of carbs then it will use the fat stores. Remember to only limit carbs. If you tend to feel hungry lots then be aware that eating sugary foods creates an insulin spike in your blood which leads to hunger and overeating. Good luck.
David asks…
How many Calories should I eat for breakfast, lunch, supper, and snacks to effectively lose weight?
I’m 5’3″ 190lbs. I exercise regularly. I would like to know (have a plan) on how many calories I should have for meals and snacks to lose weight quick!
weight loss cardiff answers:
I am 5’3″ also. I am at 132 lbs and have been at this weight for about 4 years by staying on 1200 calories a day. Of course I do splurge when I eat out, but if you continually stick
to 1200 calories you will lose weight. Do eat low cal foods, and exercise. I wish you good luck.
