1. i advise you to drink green tea 1-3 glasses per day green tea speeds up your metabolism drink lots and lots of water 8 glasses each day. do not snack do not eat 6 meals a day, try to only eat 3 if you are really hungry and you've had all your daily meals snack on fruits ( oranges, apples, bananas ) exercise more try and run for at least 30 minutes a day get more active get more sleep it prepares your body stretch, yes it works and it doesn't just help you lose weight it helps with you're growing to make you a little taller count your calories try to stay under the amount of 1300 calories per day change you're lifestyle it makes a difference do not eat candy or chips eat more greens or protein bars avoid fast food and cut out fried food when you cook your meal oven cook your food do not fry it chew gum because when you chew gum you do not pick at food for example if theres some chips in you're cupboard you go to them a think good damn they look good then you would say no i cant pick at them because i dont wanna throw my gum away do not eat after 6pm because before 6pm you can burn all you're food off and if you eat after six it will lay on you're stomach as you eat. do not eat before you go to sleep drink a glass of water before you go to sleep eat spicy food, if you can because it speeds up you're metabolism do not weigh you're self everyday because it torments you,weight you're self once a week ( every Monday ) good luck! you can safley lose 2 to 3 lbs. a week also for abs try, lay on your back, put your hand over your head on the floor you can even hold on to something heavy to keep you down and then lift your legs up and down it burns but it works really good! <3
2. go on a wheat free diet. no bread, pasta, pizza or anything with wheat in it. for carbs you can still have potatoes and rice anything as long as no wheat. do 30 crunches a day as well for tight abs.
3. to loss the weight i think this option and its work for me: eat more fruit drink fresh juice get detoxification no junk food no milk no yogurt no soda drink natural water sport (like exercise, running, walking, aerobic, swimming) eat more salad good sleep the example eat menu : Breakfast Always same: juice presses fresh, as much as desirable, up to 14 ounce; fresh succulence as much as desirable, or salad fruit; when do you very hungry. When not make difficult, sometimes fun replaced fruit every day that eaten at morning Lunch Fresh fruit juice, or carrot juice, 4 - 8 ounce, when does desirable. Salad with fresh vegetable addition desirable and combination sandwich with cucumber or celery. Dinner Fresh vegetable cocktail juice, soup cream cauliflower. Potato boat or simple grilled chicken. Garlic flavor string bean. Salad green French. I read this menu from this blog in HEALTHY LIFESTYLE ARCHIVES. In this blog have an articles for main program, program, healthy lifestyle, many tips and more useful links for loss your weight.
4. Eat sensibly and balanced diet, and EXERCISE regulary. That could be as easy as walking two miles a day or 3 times a week (brisk pace), and cutting out fat and extra junk food. The key is to BURN more calories than you eat. And there are number of ways to do it. Eating salads is great, provided you use spinach, and other veggies in the salad and don't inundate it with high-fact ranch dressing! Broccoli, cauliflower, radishes, carrots, etc all contribute to a great health as to fruits like apples, oranges, pears, etc. Eat less fat, burn more calories by exericising. If you like to BIKE, then ride your bike at a good clip a few times a week for several miles at a shot. If you have access to a stair climbing machine, use it. There are any number of ways to drop 5 lbs in a month and keep it off.
5. Simply eat low fat/calorie foods. For meals stick to lean protein, whole grains such as brown rice (no white bread, rice etc) and veggies. For snacks eat low fat yogurt, skim string cheese, fruit and 100 calorie packs. Drink only water, that way you don't get unnecessary calories from fluid. Walk daily and do pilates. Pilates is a great, easy way to tone up your body. Results can be seen in as little as one week, and its not grueling. To lose 5 pounds in one month you won't have to get too extreme. Just make healthy choices and include exercise a few days a week. Good luck!
6. Five pounds is a lot for one month. BUT, the program below will make you LOOK like you've lost at least that, maybe even twice as much. MON, WED and FRIDAY: Ride a bike. Either an exercise bike or a real bike for 1 to 1.5 hours per day. The real bike is infinitely more fun, btw. You can also run, but you have to be able to keep it up for at least 45 minutes. That is probably 3.5 to 4.5 miles for a average young woman. ALSO on MON, WED and FRI: Interval Cardio. Get on an elliptical or even just run sprints on a track. You have to jog for 5 minutes to warm up, then sprint one minute, jog two minutes. you repeat that sprint 1, jog 2 three times, then walk for three minutes and you're done. Interval cardio is HARD, but it's great for your heart and melts body fat. ALSO on MON, WED, FRI: Ab work. Do this either first thing in the morning or before bed. Do the following: 50 crunches, 50 leg lifts, 50 oblique crunches (25 each side.) TUE and THURS: Weight train. On tuesday do squats, lunges, pull downs, reverse grip pull downs and lat rows. If you have questions about what these are, anyone at your gym can help you, or you can check youtube or email me. On thursday do incline bench press, dumbbell bench press, seated dumbell military press and a tricep pull down. All weights are whatever you can lift for three sets of 20. The last five reps of your last set should be very hard to do. Saturday go for a hike or swim or rock climb or go dancing or just anything moderately active. Sunday take it easy. Let your body recover. DIET: This is vital. You have to stick to the following ideas: 1) eat six small meals per day. 2) Eat only the following: lean meats and veggies, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch (bread pasta, potaoes, etc) and NO sugar. Portion sizes are the size of the palm of your hand. Each meal should include a portion of protein and a portion of healthy carbs. Two should also include a portion of veggies, one a portion of fruit. This diet is easy to follow once you get in the habit, and allows for all kinds of good meals. Drink a large glass or bottle of water with every meal. Don't drink anything else except maybe one glass of 1% milk per day. No fast food, no alcohol. EXCEPT on Saturdays. Saturdays you can eat whatever you want. Though a double whopper may slow down your progress some. Sunday though go right back on the diet. All of this ACTUALLY WORKS. I've put a half dozen people on this program and all of them got amazing results. I've used it myself and gotten great results. So will you if you stick to it. Email me if you have any questions. Good luck to you!
7. You have to come up with some type of a reward system, this will help keep you motivated. One of the best things to do is make a contingency contract. Stating what you want to do, who will help you do it, and what do you get for doing it. Then also try to find a well balance diet program. My friend did this one diet program where the average weight lose is 7 pounds in 9 days. It might be the thing you are looking for, I know it's well balanced. If you want e-mail me and I can tell you more about either of these.
