Your Question About Easy Weight Loss

Susan asks…

Please provide tips or menu ideas for IBS?

Trying to find a suitable diet / recipes for Irritable Bowl Syndrome suffers.

weight loss cardiff answers:

It depends on the sufferers – everyone is different. Some are feeling better on the FODMAP diet, others favor the Specific Carbohydrate Diet, or exclude dairy and gluten and reduce fat. It’s a personal experience. It takes years of trial and error or a tool like Aurametrix to find out much faster which foods and recipes work best, and what the right amount is.

Sample recipes that would likely be safe for most people:

Low-garlic lemon chicken or ginger chicken
Low-sugar dairy-free sweet potatoes
Rice with fresh herbs
Dairy-Free low-sugar gingerbread cake
Peppermint tea

Helen asks…

Would this berry fruit salad be too much sugar?

A berry salad with Strawberries, Raspberries and Blackberries..

And what are some healthy diet recipes you know?

weight loss cardiff answers:

No, provided you do not add any sugar or sugar-based syrup. Also do not have a high sugar accompliment such as ice-cream, custard etc, also avoid cream as it is high-fat which is as bad as high-sugar. Eat either on its own or with low-fat natural yogurt or fromage frais, or if you are vegetarian or lactose intolerant with a soya-based yogurt substitute.

Daniel asks…

Can you help me find websites with recipes that are safe for diabetics?

My mom is having a hard time keeping her sugar in check, she is watching her diet, but don’t eat enough, in fear of her sugar going to high. Even though she isn’t eating alot, the doctor still had to raise her meds. Any websites about diet, exercise, and recipes would help alot. I have only found one site that had a few recipes that she enjoys. I am at nerves end here, and really need help.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Here are a few sites that I have found for you. How sweet of you to take an interest in helping your mother deal with her diabetes. You don’t say if you live at home, but if you do, you could encourage her by cooking some for her and eating the same things that she eats.

Your Question About Easy Weight Loss

Sandy asks…

Can you lose weight fast by only eating fruit and drinking water?

I mean if you’d eat enough fruit, vegetables, and fish and drink only water so you’d still have 1200 calories, then would you lose weight fast? and.. healthy, sort of? I mean without having your metabolism
slow down?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Well depending on your weight now, you will lose weight. But if your fairly skinny now and only eat fruit, it will be harder to get the weight off because of the sugar content in the fruit. Vegetables might be a better option for losing weight, or a balance of both.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Doing an effective whole body conditioning and weight loss workout
can be done entirely at home without any fancy equipment. A couple of
dumbbells is all you will need. (Even if you don’t have dumbbells
there is usually something lying around the house that is heavy enough
to substitute in for them).
Here is a list of 20 exercises you can do right in your own home for
a great whole body conditioning and fat loss workout.

Exercises:

Group 1:

Bodyweight Squats
Bulgarian Split Squats
Y-Squats
Prisoner Squat
Reverse Lunge
Step Ups
One Leg “Get Ups”

Pick one exercise from each group and do them all back to back for a
mini circuit of 3 exercises. Do each exercise for a timed interval of
10 seconds for a total of 30 seconds per mini circuit.
As you get better at them work up to doing each exercise for 20
seconds for a total of 60 seconds per mini circuit.
Take 30-60 seconds rest between mini circuits.
For beginners do a total of 3 mini circuits to start. Working up to 4
or 5 as you get better at them.
Once you’re ready to move to the next level add a second mini circuit
by choose 3 different exercises (one from each grouping). Do your
second mini circuit with the same time of work to rest ratio as your
fist.
If you feel you are already at an advanced level you can add one or
two more mini circuits up to a total of 4 mini circuits. These 20
exercises are just an example of what is possible, there are dozens
more that would work in this mini circuit style, you can incorporate
any exercise that you like into these mini circuits. This style of
workout is a great complete whole body conditioning and fat loss
program you can do right at home in under 45 minutes.

Robert asks…

Will i lose weight fast with cardio every other day and strength training everyday?

Can I still lose weight fast using my recumbent and treadmill 2 hours every other day and work on my abs, obliques, legs, back and butt everyday?

weight loss cardiff answers:

You will lose weight but not as fast as you would probably want to.

If you want to lose weigh really fast then besides excessive you also have to watch your diet.
1) Do not eat any sugary foods or drinks.No high fructose corn syrup.No artificial sweeteners.If you can’t live without them then don’t eat more than once a week.
2) Do not eat any red meat.You should eat fish instead.
3) Eat lots of vegetables .If you feel like you’re too hungry during meals then eat a vegetable as a snack or a fruit.

Make your plates smaller and remember, it is OK if you feel hungry.

Thomas asks…

Did Hydroxycut weight loss pills work for you?

Anyone have success stories to tell about Hydroxycut? I started taking them yesterday and at first they made me feel a bit anxious/nervous but now on day 2 all I notice is decreated hunger… Which is good because needless snacking is part of the reason I need to shed a few pounds. I don’t plan on taking this pill longer then the 8 week recommened period but still, any stories on if it worked or didn’t work for you would be nice to hear. Thanks in advance.

weight loss cardiff answers:

I did not see any results. Jerome’s opinion – all those diet pills will work when used in combination of diet and exercise. None of those pills are magic, instant relief. I’m currently taking Lipo 6.

Lizzie asks…

got any weight loss tips or success stories?

i would love to get advice on weight loss from others that have already accomplished the weight loss challenge.. im all ears and open to any input.

weight loss cardiff answers:

Hi,

I graduated high school at 240 pounds and at 5 foot 3 that made me about as round as I was tall. I was one of those overweight teenagers who ate anything and everything without any regard to the effects it was having on my own body. Therefore, I began the diet pills, which did not work; I ate the special diet foods and even began drinking diet beverages. None of this stuff worked for me, just as it does not work for millions of overweight people. Eating less did not work and I was not one to work out or even get up and do anything remotely related to exercise. I knew I would look silly and it would hurt. I never thought or really cared about the health effects this would have on me, back then.

A year ago after a successful weight loss plan, now at 120 pounds, it is a major difference. I’ve lost 30 pounds in the first month. The most significant change in my life is the amount of energy I now have and the way my clothes fit loosely. Everyone close to me and people I haven’t seen in a while are amazed and tell me that I look really good. This is a life changing experience for me although at first I was skeptical about the weight loss plan.

Our own metabolism system play a vital part in controlling the amount of body fat burned in the process of providing energy to the body. Knowledge about our own metabolism function is the mother to all weight loss programs. With the knowledge you not only reduce your weight but able to maintain an ideal weight and living a healthy life.The weight loss program has proven 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). Best of all you can eat what you most enjoyed without gaining any weight The weight loss program is affordable by all and do not 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 when you stop consuming it.

The success has inspired me to help others and i am sure you won’t be disappointed. The link is at the source below and discover how you can become noticeably thinner in 11 days by eating in a way you’ll actually enjoy.

sonoma diet?

Is the Sonoma Diet a good diet to try?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Yes the Sonoam diet is a good safe and healthy diet program.

The Sonoma Diet was invented by Connie Guttersen. The Snoma ddiet is a low-carbohydrate diet / low sugar diet.The core of the diet plan is eating approved “power foods” that are healthy and intensely flavorful. Another key concept behind the diet program is managing portion sizes and eating approved foods.

The 10 power foods are: Almond, Bell peppers,Broccoli, Blueberries, Grapes, Olive oil, Spinach, Strawberries, Tomatoes and Whole grains.

The Sonoma Diet has three phases also called waves. The first phase lasts 10 days and is the most restrictive phase, allowing the smallest number of foods and the smallest portion sizes. During this phase carbohydrate and sugar consumption is greatly reduced. In the second phase a wider variety of foods are allowed. You remain in Phase two until you achieve your target weight. Phase three is the maintenance stage and you are allowed to eat a wider variety of foods.
