- 6 week body makeover or Weight Watchers Core program
- Eat light healthy meals, be active all the time(get off the computer)
- do a lot of walking drink water, eat healthy
- you will lose weight fast with low carb (less than 20 carbs a day) you cant eat anything white. you have to eat a lot of meat, eggs, cheese, and fish. no fruits. it is a very hard diet to stick to. when i did it, i ate a lot of steaks, sausage, and ground meet. but after you get off of the diet, you will gain it all back pluss double. now weight watchers is a wonderful program, you will lose the weight slower but you will keep it off.
- I would recommend trying to run daily, try to go the the gym, if you can't get to the gym try some push ups and sit ups while watching T.V.
- Evening! I am Krystal Moo, I can't give you a definant answer on that question, but I can tell you to start with, stop eating when you are full. It is a very slow process, but if you eat healthy and right, like a burger every now and then. Then you should be okay. I just don't think you should have to starve yourself to lose wheight, it is not good for you, you just abuse yourself. It is just easier to eat the food you like, just less of it. :) Wish you luck! ! ! !
- Try a book called Eat More, Weigh Less by Dean Ornish, M.D. It is a vegetarian diet.
- 3 Day Diet The 3 Day Diet is one of the most popular short-term fad diets around today. Many people adopt the diet to try and achieve short-term weight loss. However, unfortunately most people simply gain the weight back on again. The 3 Day Diet is simply a low calorie diet (as can be seen by the meal plan). There is nothing magical - no mystical chemical reaction that goes on (as some seem to think). Weight loss is due to a sudden drop in calories - some of this may be fat - but most will be from water loss. 3 Day Diet Meal Plan Day 1 Breakfast Black coffee or tea or water 1/2 Grapefruit or Juice 1 slice toast with 1 Tbsp. Peanut Butter Lunch 1/2 Cup of Tuna 1 slice toast Black coffee or tea or water Dinner 3 oz. any lean meat 1 cup green beans 1 cup carrots 1 cup vanilla ice cream 1 medium apple Black coffee or tea or water Day 2 Breakfast Black coffee or tea or water 1 egg (any style) 1 slice toast 1 banana Lunch 1 cup cottage cheese or tuna 5 saltine crackers Black coffee or tea or water Dinner 2 beef franks or hot dogs 1/2 cup carrots 1 banana 1 cup broccoli or cabbage 1/2 cup vanilla ice cream Black coffee or tea or water Day 3 Breakfast Black coffee or tea or water 5 regular saltine crackers 1 oz.(slice) cheddar cheese 1 apple Lunch 1 hard boiled egg 1 slice toast Black coffee or tea or water Dinner 1 cup tuna 1 cup carrots 1 cup cauliflower 1 cup melon 1/2 cup regular vanilla ice cream Black coffee or tea or water Condiments Allowed: - Lemon (and lots of it, if you like) - a dash of salt and/or pepper - mustard - cooking spray Substitutions: Some people use the following substitutions for the 3 day diet: - Orange instead of Grapefruit - Tuna instead of Cottage cheese (and vice versa) - Frozen yogurt instead of Ice Cream - Cauliflower instead of Broccoli (and vice versa) - Green beans instead of Broccoli or Cauliflower - Beets instead of Carrots - Toast instead of 5 crackers (vice versa) This diet is not recommended and should never be used for more than 3 days. This kind of diet is often used by those who experience "yo-yo" weight - it is not a good habit to get into.
- hi mearhoo, the best way is to change your eating habits, like, not eating after 6:00 pm, eating lean meats, chicken, fish, veggies, fruits, salads. drink LOTS of water!!! and walk, mere walking will really drop the weight in addition to eating changes. good luck! i hope this helped! :)

- Always Think Fit: First step in exercise is to always Think FIT. To make physical improvements, you need to work your body harder than usual. This is referred to as the overload principle. As your body becomes more conditioned, you need to increase the frequency, intensity, or time of your workouts in order to continue improving your fitness level Choosing an Exercise: The best exercise is an activity that you enjoy enough to really pursue enthusiastically. •Indoor (Facility) Activities: If the treadmill, stairmaster, rowing machine or stationery cycle doesn't excite you, sample some group activities that strike your fancy. Participate in a group cycling class, beat stress with yoga, find balance with martial arts, stay cool with indoor swimming, or kick some you-know-what with boxaerobics. 1. Change your eating habits (i.e. start eating smaller portions of food) before if you ate a full plate of food try eating 2/3 of a plate instead. 2. o Substitute aspartame for sugar o Try eating 3 or 4 smaller meals during the day rather than 2 large ones o Eat your main large meal at midday with the other meals much smaller in content o Don't eat heavy meals late in the evening as the body wont have time to digest it so it ends up stored as fat in your body. o Balance your meals out during the day so in one day you have a mix of protein, carbohydrate and vitamins o Drink lots of water during the day and before, during and after exercise, you should drink at least 8 big glasses of water per 24 hours o Drink alcohol in moderation o Stop smoking if you smoke or cut down o Eat more fibre i.e. pulses grains nuts, pasta, brown rice, cereals, fresh fruit o Eat more vegetables as part of your diet o Eat less dairy products or choose those with less fat content i.e. cottage cheese o Try steaming or poaching food instead of frying it, frying adds calories by the bucketful o Cut down on Red meat and eat more lean or better still chicken and fish instead o Use low fat oils in cooking i.e. sunflower, corn or Mazola o Cut down on your salt intake, there are hidden salts even in tinned foods o Try substituting carrots or fresh fruit instead of biscuits and sweetmeat when you have a craving for something in between meals. o Drink semi or skimmed milk as opposed to full cream Simply choose a diet which is low in fat and cholesterol, moderate in sugar and salt and high in fibre but at the same time has a variety of everything thus making it a balanced diet. Calculate your BMR!!!! BMR means Basal Metabolic Rate.It is used to estimate how many calories you should consume.By using a simple formula called the Harris-Benedict principle, you can assess your BMR. Your BMR is the amount of energy your body needs to function.Then, to lose weight, you'll need to cut calories or burn extra calories and shoot for a level lower than the results you get with this formula. We use about 60 percent of the calories we consume each day for basic bodily functions such as breathing.Other factors that influence your BMR are height, weight, age and sex. Step One : Calculate your BMR with the following formula: •Women: BMR = 655 + (4.35 x weight in pounds) + (4.7 x height in inches) - (4.7 x age in years) •Men: BMR = 66 + (6.23 x weight in pounds) + (12.7 x height in inches) - (6.8 x age in years) Step two : In order to incorporate activity into your daily caloric needs, do the following calculation: •If you are sedentary : BMR x 1.2 •If you are lightly active: BMR x 1.375 •If you are moderately active (You exercise most days a week.): BMR x 1.55 •If you are very active (You exercise daily.): BMR x 1.725 •If you are extra active (You do hard labor or are in athletic training.): BMR x 1.9 Create a Calorie Deficit: In order to lose weight, you must create a calorie deficit. It is easier and healthier to cut back your calorie intake a little bit at a time. Every 3,500 calories is equivalent to 1 pound. If you cut back 500 calories a day, you will lose 1 pound per week. If you exercise to burn off 500 calories a day you will also lose 1 pound per week. Ideally, you should do a combination of both, (e.g. cut back 250 calories; burn an extra 250 calories).
