Wednesday, September 1st, 2010

breakfast: weetabix with semi skimmed milk and a activia strawberry yoghurt drink

snack: banana

lunch: special k cereal bar + 1 apple

snack: 1 serving of fruit

dinner : cauliflower and broccoli , gravy and either 4 quorn nuggets OR 2 quorn crispy chicken style bites

Diet, trying to lose weight ! Help anyone ?

Monday, August 23rd, 2010

Heyy everyone,

Okay so, my aunt told me the other day that there was a man who kept walking all over his country to lose weight ( he was quite overweight ) and he only had a backpack with him carrying only milk and figs ! So, when people asked him what he ate, he simply said milk and figs! So I was wondering if you guys think it would be a great diet to stay on milk and figs (since both of them are full of nutrients) and walk a lot, in purpose to lose weight ! :)

Thank you ! and I hope you enjoyed the story haha.

Milk is EXTREMELY fatty and figs will not give you all the nutrients you need. I would bet that he lost so much weight because he was walking so much and the lack of good nutrients so he was probably just wasting away. I would advise AGAINST this plan. The only thing he did that was a good idea was the exercise part!

Eat healthy and get active and you’ll be just fine!

Could I eat a 1200 calorie diet and lose weight, or should I stick to 1500 calories?

Sunday, August 22nd, 2010

I am 105 Kg, Male and 182 cm tall. I am currently losing weight on a 1500 calorie diet, but since I am eating better (not fast food) I am finding it hard to eat everything.

My wife is on 1200 calories, If I ate 1200 calories would I lose weight or go in to calorie shock?

Well since it seems you are on 1500 calories at the moment I think you should remain there for a week and a half then slowly change your weight to 1400 calories and then wait a couple of weeks and aim for 1300. Take baby steps.

I think you should just stick to 1300 calories or 1200 calories because men actually need more calories in order to function correctly and not have a calorie shock. If you feel its to drastic then go to 1400 calories.

What is a good everyday diet to lose weight?

Monday, August 2nd, 2010

I am 6 foot 1 and weigh 300 pounds. I am not THAT big though as it may seam. I have a 48 inch chest and a 44 inch waist.

Could someone please tell me what my daily foods should look like so I can start losing weight? Websites are OK but I would prefer it just written out in your answer. Thank you so much. If possible I’d like to lose 10 pounds in about 2 weeks…

Here are some tips that will help you reach your goal!
1.stock up on fruits and vegetables– those have very few calories and DO taste good!
2.Drink water instead of soda or juice.
3.Try to eat whole wheat and potatoes. Those will keep your hunger at bay and not make you crave foods. Oh! But if you DO find yourself craving foods, have a small portion of it, don’t try to avoid it completely, because the craving will only get stronger.
4.make sure to pay attention to portion sizes too. it helps if you portion it out into a bowl that way you don’t find your self eating too much at once. or even portion out your snacks a week in advance so you don’t over eat.
5.you should record what you eat in a journal. calculate the total number of calories you eat per day and determine if there is any junk you can cut out.
6.to lose weight you might want to eat around 1500-2000 calories per day. DO NOT EAT LESS THAN 1000 CALORIES PER DAY!!!!!! Eating less than 1000 calories can actually cause your body to gain weight.
7.Eating healthy low calorie meals with LOTS of exercise will help you lose weight! aerobic exercise such as running, swimming, biking, or gymnastics is a great way to loose weight as well!
8.Get motivated! If ever you find your self not wanting to get up and go exercise, tell your self to get up and do it. Motivate yourself by thinking about how good you will look/feel if you just get up and do it!
9.another motivational tip, once a week, take a day off and reward your self with something special like your favorite restaurant or something sweet like dessert!
10.Don’t be afraid to drink tea, unsweetened tea has 0 calories and is full of antioxidants that will actually help you lose weight. There are also sweeteners such as Truvia that contain 0 calories and are good to add to tea if you like it sweet! :D

REMEMBER: to lose weight you need to have a good diet AND exercise program having only one will not do you as much good as having both! :D

this is a very easy plan to follow! as long as you stick to it! and don’t give up! :D

Good Luck!

BTW i actually did lose about 9-10 pounds on this plan in 2 weeks. (keep in mind, some of that was probably water weight but most of it was fat that had been burned of!)

What is the best diet supplement pill or workout to lose weight the healthy way?

Saturday, July 31st, 2010

I would like to lose weight. Like around 30 lbs. I want to do it the healthy way. I am active now. I walk my dog for a while and i also work out in my living room for 30 mins every other day. I would like to know a pill that could help me lose weight that will acutally work and its healthy for my body. I also would like to know some new routines to work out.

Bad news not only do diet pills not work, but so called dieters like you who try for the quick fix have a 2 in 3 chance of ending up heavier in the long term!

Do you see the box near the top of the page?
The one labelled ‘Search for questions: ‘?
Well type in ‘lose weight’.
You will find over 493,128 pre-existing questions.
Try the misspellings ‘loose weight’ and there are another 113,731.
In all there are over half a million Health section questions requesting solutions to being or thinking you might be overweight.
On average these each yield 6 answers, that is over 3 and a half million answers.

I can usefully summarise these answers in 4 words :

What is a healthy weeks diet?
What exercises do you do each week to lose weight?
What do you eat each week? Like breakfast till dinner monday to Sunday?

You can find: How to lose 2 pounds a week?
I believe that weight loss always starts from mindset. This is the reason why i am able to lose 15kg in 2 months and maintain for 3 years straight, all the way till my pregnancy.

1) What is my goal? I want to lose __kg in __ time.
2) Why do I want to achieve this goal? (if possible, come up with 50 reasons)
3) If I do not achieve it, what pains will I have? (come up with as many reasons as possible)
4) If I achieve it, what happiness will I have? (come up with as many reasons as possible)
5) What will happen to me if I continue my current situation for the next 10 years?
6) Then when do I want to take action?

Some solutions I can offer you for diet:
Breakfast: eat fruits/drink fruit juice
Lunch: Less carbo, more veg and fruits, less seafood, meat and eggs
Dinner: Same as lunch but no solid food after 8pm. Soups are great dinners

If you want to exercise to enhance the speed of weight loss. Go for some light jogging or do something you enjoy like an aerobic class or kick boxing class…

Hope this can help u. :)

Going on a diet to lose weight, is it safe to add cheese in my diet? should i have no cheese at all?

Wednesday, July 28th, 2010

im going on a really strict diet, i need to lose a lot of weight by september, so in about 6 weeks. I am exercising 1 hour everyday and want to only eat healthy stuff. I need to know if cheese will slow my process. thank you. and how many lbs can i lose if i eat healthy and exercise everyday for an hour.

No matter how hard you diet you need a certain amount of fat, and having some of that as saturated fat is completely healthy and won’t slow down your dieting. If you get some of it through cheese you’ll be fine, just try and make sure it’s the right amount.

What’s with the misconception that you HAVE TO stick to a strict diet to lose weight?

Monday, July 26th, 2010

I never paid attention to all the crap people say about losing weight, and I’ve lost a lot. I see people listing these complicated diets with everything down to how many carbohydrates they can have, and I can’t help but think they must get stressed out with this crap. You don’t need to do that to lose weight. Why do people stress themselves out like that? Losing weight is simple, so what’s with all these overly complicated diets?

Because people try to find the magic trick. The magical cure to being fat. The cure that involves putting in no effort, and making no lifestyle changes. The easy way out.

People dont want to eat healthy things forever. And people dont want to exercise, because that requires their fat butt getting off the couch.

What is the best recommended diet to lose weight?

Friday, July 23rd, 2010

I’m wanting to lose about 15 to 20 lbs in a time spand of a month and a half. So I’m cutting my calories by 1,000 a day. Drinking water and crystal light mix drinks instead of soda. But is their a certain diet that can help me out more? I heard of the fiber diet, grape fruit diet, acai berry diet, green tea diet.

But which one would fit my goal? It doesn’t necessarily have to be the examples i showed up above it could be something you would recommend.

fad diets always fail. Thats why theyre fads, cause once people begin to realize they dont work they stop doing them. Them the next gimmicky fad diet comes in and the whole process starts over.

Lower cal diet with lots of cardio is all you need. Any diet that focuses on one food in particular is a horrible diet. Just lower calories, limit carbs and avoid sugars and transfats.
