Sandy asks…

What are some effective weight loss supplements?

I am looking to buy weight loss supplements. How to lose 10 pounds in 2-3 Weeks? There have bunch of recommendation about supplements. Want to know which is most effective for a body. Any side effect if i take dietary supplements?

weight loss cardiff answers:

African mango supplements are good because there is science to back up the weight loss claims. While African mango has real science to prove it works, some of the other popular ones like raspberry ketone and garcinia cambogia do not.

The only two natural weight loss supplements that work are African mango and green coffee. They work. The others do not.

I like African mango. The science is real. And it works perfect. To know more:

James asks…

What are some weight loss pills that actually work?

I’ve recently gained about 20lbs because of work, and now I have been trying to loose it for about 2 months and have only lost about 3lbs total. I changed my diet, and have been running about 5 times a week. I’m going to continue this routine, but I just need that extra push. So i have been looking into weight loss pills to help, and I’m not sure which one to buy. Help me please.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Weight loss pills that are based on all natural ingredients can help you as they should be side effect free, aside from helping you lose weight. But you have to check the best information that can help you or better yet ask a health professional to be certain. Check the resource below.

Ruth asks…

What is the best program for weight loss?

I want to lose from 20-25 pounds. I had planned to do this at the end of the summer. Got distracted and can’t remember which weight loss plans I had found. Would like suggestions from any Yahoo people.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Criteria of a Good Weight Loss Program:

If you want to lose some weight, it is not necessary to take natural weight loss pills and supplements. The ugly side effect from taking weight loss pills may outweigh the benefit. The whole idea of a successful weight loss program is to approach it in a realistic manner without compromising your overall health. The following are some of the criteria of a good weight loss program.

• Without using any diet pills or supplements. Although a few type of diet pills have been approved by FDA but there were cases at a point in time, the FDA have approved a drug that is certified safe for the public but later recalls it back when there is a new finding that the drug is not safe in the long term.

• The weight loss program is affordable by all and don’t need to pay a monthly fees to use it. In contrast to diet pills regime where you need to buy it on a regular basis and the amount of lose weight will reversed back once you stop consuming it.

• The weight loss program must prove to be effective in the short and long-term, without need to endure starvation and without any daily athletic workout. (But taking a light exercise every few days is highly recommended).

Since 2005 I have tried reducing my weight using most of the so-called popular weight loss program from the internet but with no avail until I meet the weight loss program that’s finally worked for me with all the above criteria. I’m confident that it will work for you too.

David asks…

how can i lose weight easily?

im 5 foot and 7 and a half stone right now, im abit chubby and i want to be super thin for my sisters wedding coming up in 2 months, whats the best way to lose weight, i just started my diet of protein, wholeweat food and try to eat as much fruit as possible, i do one hour exercise each day, drink up to 8 glasses of water but im finding it difficult to see any difference on me, is there anything else i can do

weight loss cardiff answers:

Well losing weight is no simple thing to do….it will take time. Losing weight depends on the type of exercises you are doing because in loosing weight nothing proves more helpful than cardio exercise.
1) Try to do cycling, running or swimming to lose weight.
2) Stay away from junk food
3) Never skip your breakfast
4) Take a proper sleep.
Just carry on with your routine….and if you r weighing your self on daily basis..don’t do that ..weight your self once a week to see the differences.

Linda asks…

How can I lose weight easily?

I’m 4”11, I weight 7 stone, 7 pounds, I feel really chubby and fat all the time and I want to lose weight, but whenever I try I fail! I excersise loads and attempt to diet, does anyone have a good workout and diet plan for me? Thanks 🙂

weight loss cardiff answers:

Well i found the easiest way to lose weight was thru diet and counting calories, but you have to know about how many calories you are consuming daily to maintain your current weight of 7 stone 7 pounds, if you subtract 500 calories per day from that number you should lose 1 pound per week, the reason is because 1 pound of fat is equal to 3500 calories and 500 calories times seven days per week is 3500 calories

exercise helps but its a lot more difficult because to burn 500 calories it takes more than an hour of intense cardio, whereas with diet all you have to do is not consume the 500 calories of food

another thing you can try is to burn half of the 500 calories thru exercise and the other half thru diet, just eat 250 calories less per day and the other 250 you burn off thru exercise and you should still lose 1 pound per week, in two months thats almost 9 pounds of weight loss with little effort

James asks…

Why do I lose weight so easily?

I’m a 16 year old boy and work out 3 times a week, eat very healthy, and even though i am not trying to lose any weight I have realized that I can lose weight incredibly fast (about 1.5 pounds in a day without dieting, just eating a bit less than usual). I am neither over weight nor under weight.

weight loss cardiff answers:

You can lose weight so quickly because you are a 16 year-old male.

Your metabolism is never going to be faster than it is today. When you hit 19, you’ll notice that you can’t eat as much as you once did without gaining weight. Your metabolism will continue to slow down as you age, so this ability to lose 1.5 pounds a day will soon disappear.

Make sure that you eat enough to keep your weight stable. Your metabolism will slow down prematurely if you do not feed your body all of the calories it needs.

Thomas asks…

What is a good workout plan to lose weight and get toned?

I am 5’4″ and I weigh about 125.
I am finally joining the gym again but I am at a loss as to where I should start. I am looking to drop about 15 pounds and tone up my stomach and thighs, and maybe my arms a bit.
Any specific tips?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Running in general

“A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit and a violin; what else does a man need to be happy?” Albert Einstein

The Einstein Diet…

Lemon water, with the lemons coming from freshly squeezed lemons, which will help detox the body of excess fat and toxins.

A variety of raw high carb/low fat fruit (do not juice or blend, because chewing properly is important for digestion due to amylase).

Must have green grapes and ambrosia apples 24/7.

Other Information…

Vegetables/legumes are 2nd best, but may be needed due to finance or type 1 diabetes, in which case, I’d suggest getting a variety of salad recipes.

Sprouted grains are 3rd best, but may be needed due to finance.

*No meat and no cheese is a must, but if a person has trouble with not eating meat: shrimp/prawns, lobster & crab are the easiest meats to digest.

*Proper sleep, hydration, fresh air 24/7, eating sufficient carbs, and cardio (at least walking) is a must.

Putting on excess weight takes time, as does losing excess weight

Lizzie asks…

How long will it take me to lose 80 pounds?

I am a 16 year old 5ft 4in female that is 208lbs. I’ve always been a big girl my whole life but decided its time for a change. Since feb 2nd, I have been working out 6 times a week jogging/walking for 1 hr & 20 min on the bike. I no longer eat meat unless its chicken strips similar to the subway kind. I usually have a weight loss shake for breakfast, a fiber bar or bagel for lunch, salad for dinner(sometimes subway salad with no/minimal dressing) and the rest of the day I eat banana’s, grapes, cashews coming up to about 1000-1200 calories a day. I know that’s too little but I’m tired of being called fat. When do you think I’ll loose my weight by? Or at least slim down some

weight loss cardiff answers:

Okay, to get into shape , speed up your metabolism, rid yourself of excess fat and lose weight ,,,,,do as follows:

Stop drinking & smoking (if you do this regularly)
eat fruits & vegetables all you can (buy a slow cooker /food steamer & rice/pasta cooker to make it easy on you)…(vegetables might not seem “tasty”, like junk foods,, but can be as you aquire your taste to them..and are loaded with energy and nutrients)…avoid all junk food, cokes, sweets, etc…and drink mainly water (green tea , juice & milk being the other options you drink). If you eat meat ,,use only steamed, baking or grilled methods for preparing fish or chicken.

Also, do an hour of walking each day at least. Or some type of excercise.

* you should lose about 10 lbs per month

** for a very healthy “snack”..learn how to make “huumus” (look online for very easy recipe)..it fills you up and is very low in calories and is very tasty.

Sharon asks…

How much cardio do I need to lose weight?

How many hours of cardio per week do I need to do to lose weight?

I am actually doing 50 minutes of cardio 3 times per week, is that enough?

weight loss cardiff answers:

None. Any exercise will burn calories but no exercise will burn fat unless your diet allows it. You can burn fat in your sleep or you can run all day and never burn any fat. It all depends on your diet.

Fat loss is determined by calorie control, not by exercise. Good exercises for burning calories are walking, running, biking, swimming, and ANY other physical activity which makes you move a lot of weight for a long time. But NO exercise is good for burning fat if you eat too many calories because you can always eat more calories than you can burn.

Too many people waste energy and time because they do not understand this one simple point. The result is too often giving up in frustration, disuse of gym memberships they continue to pay for, and many other unnecessary problems not the least of which is a lack of success.

Cardio is not for fat loss. It’s for maintaining cardio-vascular fitness. If you want to burn fat, just learn how to eat right and control your body composition with portion size.

Here is how we should all eat according to the US National Institute of Health who are among the best health professionals in the world and the people doctors listen to in the US.

OPTIMAL INTAKE
Eat varied, wholesome, and high quality foods such that your daily caloric intake is about equal to your daily caloric burn while keeping your macro nutrient ratios at about 55/25/20 (%calories from carbs/fats/protein). Only slight changes should be made in the macro nutrient ratios to accommodate the extreme demands of special activities such as extreme athletics or inactivity due to illness.

Note: Here are the details in case you’re interested:
http://health.gov/dietaryguidelines/2010.asp
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/nutrition.html

You get to make the food choices (no supplements without a doctor’s recommendation) based on your location, culture, available foods, personal preferences, personal resources, food allergies, etc. However, the words “varied”, “wholesome”, and “high quality” are important. And, you should consume your food in 4-6 daily meals with healthy snacks between such that you’re nourishing yourself every two hours when awake.

VARIED means a variety of foods including fruits, dairy, meats, vegetables, grains, nuts, etc.
WHOLESOME means as unprocessed, unrefined, nutritious as is practical.
HIGH QUALITY means using the best ingredients, the least contaminants or fillers or unnecessary chemicals, etc.

•FAT LOSS: If you want to lose fat, simply adjust your portion size (the amount you take in at meals and snacks) down such that your daily caloric intake is about equal to your BMR. If you eat your BMR in calories daily, you will have plenty of nutrition and food choices and all of your activity will go toward burning fat. Most people can lose one pound per week averaged over the term of the diet by eating their BMR. You can calculate your BMR here —> http://www.calculator.net/bmr-calculator.html

TRACKING
Nutrient tracking is necessary to ensure you have the optimal caloric intake and macro nutrient balance. For most people, tracking is only required for fat loss because of the difficulty in cutting intake and nutrients while maintaining digestive and appetite satisfaction. Tracking makes it necessary to read labels, look up food nutrients, record data, plan meals and recipes, etc. And, as annoying as it may be to have to track, it is easier to do today than ever before with the help of website such as My Fitness Pal —> http://www.myfitnesspal.com . And, once the fat loss dieter reaches goal weight, tracking my be discontinued. Here’s my tracking as an example –> http://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/diary/clickmaster . Tracking will also force you to make good food choices because bad ones will either drive your caloric intake over the limit or create periods of hunger in waking hours. Ideally you want all your hunger to be while you’re sleeping.

CHEATS – Another benefit of tracking is planning “cheats”. “Cheats” are great because they ensure you can stay on track but still enjoy some of your birthday cake or have that pizza to celebrate a holiday of decadence. “Cheating” is important because there’s more to life than just dieting.

BANKS – You can also “bank” calories simply by adding up all the calories you’ve saved by eating below your limit over the past week and then indulging yourself by that much excess without interfering with your fat loss. It’s like putting calories in the bank for use at the end of the week. Cool huh?

I can’t stress the importance of tracking enough. Trying to control your body composition without tracking is like driving blindfolded. You know where you want to go but you can’t see the hazards so you will eventually run into trouble.

Good luck and good health!!

Sandra asks…

how much money does it take to make diet pills compared to the price of buying them?

I’m writing an essay about diet pills and wondering how much money does it take to make diet pills compared to the price of buying them. Cite sources please ?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Just from observations from the media, like with everything else, not much money is used when making diet pills. They more than make up for it, by charging the consumers, boo koo bucks. What a ripoff, especially when most of the diet pills have never been approved by the FDA. Why? The drug companies know that they contain unsafe ingredients, but they don’t care. It’s all about the almighty dollar. These pills will remain on the market as long as people continue to buy them.

William asks…

Are diet pills damaging to your health in the future?

I use to take diet pills to lose unwanted fat, but currently I am just eating healthy and running.

weight loss cardiff answers:

So currently you’re just eating healthy and running…So why do you need diet pills ? I think you’re on the right path to a healthier person.

But, if you think diet pills could help you to lose weight, first I would discuss this with your doctor and have a prescription for a pill.

If you prefer herbal products, there are tons of them on the internet.

Now, are they damaging to your health ? Well,
first are you allergic to certain components used in the pills ?
2. Almost all drugs have side effects, in short or long term.
3. Now in the future : diet pills should only be used for quick weight loss and short term weight loss goals. Only an healthier lifestyle coupled with exercise should keep you away from unwanted fat. Future is not an option when you take diet pills

Michael asks…

What happens when you take diet pills while on paxil?

I know you are not suppose to take diet pills while you are on a SSRI but does anyone know what happens if you do? I want to start taking them but not if the mix can be deadly.

weight loss cardiff answers:

DIET Pills are dangerous alone, so mix with something else is even worse.
Diet pills cause serious health issues. You don’t need them, just change your eating habits, drink 64 ounces of water daily, eat breakfast, eat fruits and vegetable.
Watch your portion sizes,buy a food scale and weigh your meats, and other foods, learn what a serving size is.

Please no diet pills.
