Ways to lose pounds fast
best ways to lose 50 lbs by april or may??
any hints, helpful advice, on how i can lose 50 lbs by april? i am on a very low calorie diet (1200 calories a day) and it just seems like it isn't coming off as quickly as i had hoped. i only drink water, eat healthy food such as grilled chicken/fish and nothing with more than 30% calories from fat. i do walk every day for about 30 minutes pushing my daughter in the stroller (not easy to go to the gym, i live on a military base, don't really know anyone and all my family is 700+ miles away.... so working out is pretty difficult, only able to do so WITH my daughter who is only a few months old). is it true or good advice that i get a pedometer and try to get 10,000 steps a day? would that help me reach my goal? thanks everyone.

- Site below explains why walking does not help you lose weight. There are more diets than ever and more people dieting than ever and yet we have the fattest society ever. So a lot of these ideas about losing weight, make you fatter. Cutting calories, carbs and fats can cause you to have a weight problem for life. It is better to eat differently. See site below and learn why lean meat and non-fat yogurt are so fattening. Also salt has no calories but makes you fat. This also has the quickest weight loss possible. Eat good carbs, not bad carbs. Nourish your body thin, instead of starving your body fat. Eat foods made by nature and avoid foods made by man which are designed to make you fat and very addicted to food. Do the ninja warrior diet (not a diet but a diet lifestyle). 5th link on "LINKS" page is BMI calculater to see if you are overweight. http://www.phifoundation.org
- It sounds like your eating is good so you should start making sure you drink enough water. Push yourself when you walk, try to walk a little faster and a little longer each time.
- Ever try Alli the weight loss pill. It really works great, it gets rid of the fat that you ate which each meal. The key to my own personal weight loss was Kashi GoLean crunch. This cereal has slimed me down alot, try kashi i bet it will work.
- Try the advice in the book Eight Minutes in the Morning. It has not only a way to keep track of your meals, but also gives you the facts about what foods you need to boost your metabolism and burn more calories. It also has a workout program that takes on eight minutes each morning! Two simple exercises every day - really. I started following this book on Valentine's Day, and by July (when I went on a cruise!) I had lost about 20 pounds, close to four sizes. It really works!
- Good for you for trying to get healthier! You say you're eating very few calories a day. It's important to not eat too few, or your body will hold on to fat because it goes into survival mode. The number of calories you need to lose weight is your weight times 7. Walking DOES help you lose weight, because I lost tons by eating healthier, cutting out soda and walking every day. Strength training is also a great way to shape up. You can find great exercises on www.prevention.com. When you build that muscle it continues to burn calories even when you're resting. 50 pounds by April is a completely achievable goal. Good luck!
