Question:
Answers:
Quit eating so much! Bottom line is:
Expend more calories than you consume. You can eat 5000 calories of fat every day as long as you expend more than 5000 calories. You will lose weight. I don't recommend that way, but it is true.
Other Answers:
okay. diet and excerize are the way to go, but here are some cheats:
-sleep early. u lose around 60 calories per hour of sleep!
-dont eat after 6-everything is more fattening.
`try to stay away from junk foods.
-STAY FOCUSED! u can do this. im in the same situation as u. u dont need pills! pills eventually make u gain it back-when u stop.
-so, work out! hit the gym! start out slow, and cut your meal portions either in half or smaller. staart out slow. if you go fast, you'll go back to your old ways and gain it all back.

I'v been on Weight Watchers for 3 weeks now and have lost 5 pounds and Im' not even really following the diet to a T. I eat a bit more than I'm allowed. I think it's the best safest way to lose the weight. Some other posters had very important points as well. Don't eat after 6 pm. Exercise every day and write out your goal in enough detail that you get excited about it. Good luck!
I'm losing weight using www.sparkpeople.com. Its a very realistic goal if you want to lose 1-2 pounds per week AND ITS FREE! For me that was the most important.
I agree weightloss pills and suppliments are NOT the answer.
Alternatively you can figure out your basal metabolic rate (what your body requires you to function each day ie: breathing, blood circulation, cell function etc) and reduce your calories with diet and burn calories through exercises.
An example:
If your basal metabolic rate (you can estimate it by multiplying your weight x 10) is weight 160pounds x 10 = 1600 calories per day required to keep you alive and functioning. now this amount is if you do absolutely nothing all day.
If you were moderatly active you'd need 13440 calories a week or 1920 calories a day.
with 7000 calorie reduction = two pounds of of fat loss
So reduce the calories by 1000 a day you come up with:
500 calories a day you can reduce foodwise = meaning eat 1420 calories a day
and 500 calories a day through exercise = cardio vascular (biking, hiking,walking etc). you can find out how much a particular activity burns here: www.caloriesperhour.com (you can also get your basal metabolic rate)
Advice: add strength training at least 2 days a week. NO matter how healthy your diet is you will still lose muscle, water and fat with weightloss. Muscle burns fat. The less muscle you have, the less fat your body burns!
Measure weightloss in inches as well as actual weight, since 1lb of fat and 1lb of muscle will look VERY different even if they weigh the same (muscle is more compact and fat is fluffier).
I wish you the best of luck and hope this was helpful.
