Question:
Answers:
The following healthy living recommendations will help you if you’re trying to lose weight, tone up your muscles, have aspirations of building lean muscle mass, are attempting to get a wash board stomach, or just want to feel better:
*1) Burn more calories then you're consuming everyday and measure your results using the following formula: Calories Consumed minus Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) minus Physical Activity minus the Thermic Effect of Food (TEF). A website that explains this formula in more detail and will help you determine how many calories you need to reach or maintain a certain weight is at http://www.primusweb.com/fitnesspartner/library/weight/calsburned.htm
Get a diet and fitness calculator that you can put on your computer or cell phone. This will allow you to easily calculate the above formula, set goals, log your daily calorie consumption, and register your physical activities.
Set realistic goals for your ideal body weight. Here are two websites that will calculate a suggested body weight:
Adults: http://www.halls.md/ideal-weight/body.htm
Teens/Children: http://www.kidshealth.org/kid/exercise/weight/bmi.html
It is difficult and unhealthy to lose more than one or two pounds per week. There are 3,500 calories in a pound. If you eat 500 fewer calories per day for a week you will lose one pound. If you burn through exercise 500 more calories per day for a week you will lose one pound.
*2) Eat natural and organic foods found on earth versus something created by a corporation to make money. Eat meals in small portions throughout the day and take a good multi-vitamin supplement.
Avoid “High Glycemic Load Carbs” (sugar, pastries, desserts, refined starches such as breads, pasta, refined grains like white rice; high starch vegetables such as potatoes) and drink lots of water. Read this article for more information on high GL Carbs:

Do not try fad diets or diet pills. Here is an excellent food pyramid that anyone can follow: http://www.rayandterry.com/html/images/PyramidLRG.gif?osCsid=26a424be471d1337e7c2f105d5c64d9d
*3) Exercise on most days by doing cardiovascular training and/or resistance training activities.
Read a book or find a certified trainer to make sure your doing all resistance training exercises correctly. A great book to buy that teaches you the resistance training basics is “Weight Training for Dummies”. A superb magazine to buy with resistance training routines that will not get you bored is "Muscle and Fitness". Signup for the free newsletter. An excellent free online resource is at http://www.exrx.net/
A good book to buy that teaches you the cardiovascular training basics is “Fitness for Dummies”.
*4) Get plenty of sleep. Sleep experts say most adults need between seven and nine hours of sleep each night for optimum performance, health, and safety.
*5) Educate yourself continually on health issues and make a life long commitment to good health. A great free publication is “Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2005”. A superb book to read is “You The Owner’s Manual”. An excellent periodic publication is the “Nutrition Action Health Letter”.

NO. You HAVE to exercise. Dieting is only training for gaining weight. Just walk for 30 mins a day. ITs easy.
eat lesseat ceral or yourgurt at night or the morning people loose weight and gain weight
You can lose some weight without exercising but you will get loose skin that you will not like. The only way to lose weight is with both diet and excercise.
Don't be lazy and exercise.
Eat no carbs.
I've heard it's not all that healthy, but you do lose weight.
Ha...ha....there are no short-cut plans to losing weight. Dieting and exercise go hand in hand. Dont try to cheat yourself.
I think you need some exercise even if it's just walking around the mall for a half an hour three days a week. But, I lost weight without regular exercise by cutting out all of the "white stuff"... potatoes, pasta, sugar, white bread and no fast food. I just ate vegetables, fish, turkey, cheese, nuts, and drank water, coffee, green tea. It's all about balance and making sure you don't starve yourself. Watch out for fruit too because it contains some hidden sugar.........only eat the berries...blueberries, cherries, strawberries, etc.
You need to burn more calories than you take in, Don't burn calories don't lose weight, For help, use graham crackers or jello to replace heavy snacking. Basic Math. Bernie
you eat once day walk and dink lots of water
it is very difficult, but can be done. Read the labels of EVERYTHING you eat, go for lower fat and sodium products, but remember to eat only the stated portion.Drink at least 8 glasses of water. Try this: when you wake up, drink 2 cups (from a measuring cup) 2 more at 10, 2 more at lunch and 2 more at 2. The water is good for you and will fill you up. Research the food pyramid, it has recently changed.
Try only eating after setting the table completely. Not on the run or watching TV.
Sometimes a slice of a candy bar 1/2 thick is enough to calm a sweet craving. Much better than the whole thing. I keep mine frozen.
Don't forget to chew for a LONG time, the sensation of chewing and actually tasting the food will go a long way towards satisfaction.
Exercise will help the weight to reduce and the body to look better, but not everyone can do it. Sometimes hip, leg, etc. problems prevent even walking very far. Try something like Tai Chi. (?) Very slow, controlled movements.

Homeopathic Treatment for Excessive Fat and Weight :-
PHYTOLACCA BERRY's Mother Tincture is perhaps the safest and sure fire way of loosing excessive fat around abdomen. With Phytolacca Berry once you loose the excessive fat and weight you don't get it back because you body takes care of itself after that and keeps you from gathering up excessive fat. It is prescribed after having a baby too, to get the tummy to loose its flab and to make it flatter and tighter. And after loosing weight with this you don't get flabby it tightens up the flab and skin along with helping your body to shed the excessive accumulation of fat around the girth
The dosage is 15 to 20 drops of the tincture in half a cup of hot water thrice a day half hour before or after meals.
Avoid Chocolates, Coffee, Mints, Red Meat and Carbonated and Alcoholic drinks while taking Homeopathic Medicines. You have to take it for at least 30 to 45 days after that you start to feel the results.
To the best of my knowledge its the safest and the most sure fire way of loosing fat and weight and keeping it of for keeps. Excellent remedy for Obese people who cant seem to shed weight despite trying.
Homeopathic Remedies can be found at all Major Herbal Stores or could be bought on line, In most of the world Homeopathic remedies are quite cheap and easy to find and they do not need a prescription.
Take care and God Bless !
P.S
Regular active exercise is advised with all weight loosing medicines and remedies :-) Take care
yes I sure can.
After trying for 10 years. I finally lost 150+ lbs (12 stone) and kept it off for over 4 years now. I've beaten 3 terminal diseases and I am now in amazing health, all around, not just thinner.
I did it without medicine, workouts, religion, going hungry or hating my food and without an operation or secret formula. I had tried counting: calories; carbs; fat; etc. I had tried jogging, swimming, weights, aerobics, crazy medicines and starving! But nothing ever worked well or lasted very long.
I also had Hypertension, High Blood Pressure, Chronic Asthma, vision and hearing loss. constant colds and ills, annual flu or pneumonia and more. I was approved for bypass surgery and taking usually between 16 and 20 pills a day.
take a look at my before and after pictures...
