If weight loss is what you're looking for then here's what you need. The best combination for weight loss is calorie restriction, resistance training, and aerobic work. Let's start with calorie restriction. Over the years I have had personal training clients as well as athletes come to me wondering why they are not losing weight. They tell me they eat right, exercise right, say their prayers, eat their vitamins, etc., and they just can't seem to lose weight. Well, most of the time, once I really get to know them, I find that nutrition is the culprit. You need to know what you're eating. Most of the people I'm talking about all thought they did. \n\nHow do you change this? Well, it may sound tough, but it's not that bad. You need to keep track of what you eat for 2 days over the week, and 1 day over the weekend. Next, go to you're local book store. You can find charts, books, and computer programs that will help you analyze the foods you ate. Another suggestion would be to take your dietary recall to a nutritionist or exercise physiologist at your local college and let them find it for you. \n\nThese recalls will tell you how many calories you're getting plus where they are coming from. For example, are they coming from protein, carbohydrate, or fat. It will help you see where you stand nutritionally. \n\nNext, you need to get on a good strength program. When a person is losing weight, the weight comes from fat, as well as muscle. That's kind of an unfortunate thing because muscle is an important thing when keeping metabolism high. There is enough research out there to safely say that when going through a phase of high intensity aerobic work and calorie restriction, strength training decreases muscle wasting. So, in short, strength-train. It's important. I wouldn't strength-train for anymore that 20 to 30 minutes. You can get what you need in a short period of time. \n\nAfter the strength training, it's time to get on the bike, treadmill, stepper, track, whatever. Keep your workouts to 30 minutes and up in order to burn the calories. Train between 3 to 5 times per week. Keep your heart rate at 60 to 90% of heart rate max. \n\nDon't look at losing weight as some mysterious monster that you can't get the reins on. Look at it as nothing more than stored energy. That's what fat is?stored energy. If you had a tank full of energy and it kept filling up higher and higher, what would you do to keep your tank from growing too large from the excess energy? Well, burn some of the energy off. That's what you need to do to lose weight. Keep the "energy in" lower than the "energy out" and abracadabra, you're losing weight. \n\nNote: You need to change your routine every 2-3 weeks in order to get the best results. \n\nMonday \n\n\nLeg Press 2x12 \nChest Press 2x12 \nLat pull down 2x12 \nShoulder Press 2x12 \nDB Curl 2x12 \nTricep kickback 2x12 \nAerobic Work  30 or more minutes. \n\n Click Here For A Printable Log Of Monday! \n\nTuesday \n\n\nAerobic work 30 or more minutes of aerobic exercise.\nWednesday \n\n\nSame as Monday.\nThursday \n\n\nSame as Monday, or take a day of rest.\nFriday \n\n\nSame as Monday.

Try a high protein diet.  Don't consume alot of fat though!  Use proteins like egg whites, soy nuts, low fat cheese, beans, and protein drinks.  Cut down on your carb intake.  Get most of your carbs from veggies!\n\nGood Luck!

Try PILATES and try the carb/salad and protien/salad diet.\n\nCarb/salad diet, is basically making your lunch or dinner meal out of a carb with a salad on the side and NO PROTIEN.  Ex:  Rice a Ronie and salad, pasta and salad, baked potato and salad, etc.\n\nProtien/salad diet, is basically making your lunch or dinner meal out of a protien with a salad and NO CARBS. Ex: steak and salad, fish and salad, chicken and salad, etc. I would strongly suggest a fish and salad diet for a good cleansing and build up of OMEGA 3s.\n\nThe key is not mixing your carbs and protien in the same meal.\n\nAdd a vitamin supplement PLUS extra vitamin Bcomplex, Calcium, Vitamin E and OMEGA 3 to your daily intake.

The diet you've shown is 'balanced' and you'll lose weight.  \n\nYou won't lose quickly because your carbs are high, but you'll lose.  Be sure the chicken is without skin or sauce.  Watch the butter or sauce on the rice.\n\nI prefer faster weight loss, but you need to pick a diet that you can stick with.

A lot of exercise and healthy eating. Just try to improve what you eating. Like stay away from stuff you shouldnt eat. We shouldnt eat fast food, chips, french fries, pizza. Although that all of that stuff is good and is ok to eat every once in a while it shouldnt be your whole diet. Your diet should consist of more vegetables, whole grains, protien, fiber, etc.

Balancing your diet is the key.\nKeep the fruit.\nBring back the veggies.\nDon't forget your grains & meats.\n\nEach food group has nutrients you need.  Fruit alone is not enough if your looking for a good diet.

Measure your portions.  Many people are surprised when they find out what an actual portion is.  \nMake half of your supper vegetables, 25% complex carbohydrate, and 25% lean protein.  Have fruit for desert.\nEat whole grain cereal with fruit and low fat milk or soymilk at breakfast.  Have a large salad with low-cal dressing at lunch, lean protein, and 1 serving of complex carbohydrate.\nSnack on fruit between meals if you get hungry.  Drink water at each meal and with each snack.\nDo a  bit  of research on portion sizes.  This is really important for calorie control.

Hello Dear,you sound a good person and mummy..I am glad that you are not crazy about those stupid pills and all that advertisement on mirracle remedies. I would recommend you one dietsry plan and I am sure it will work for you,as far as you are consistent and don't lack will and motivation.It's rather simple.Ear separately all the proteins(milk,eggs,fish etc) and don't mess them with any carbohidrates(pasta,bread etc) at least for two weeks.Eat normally,don't skip a meal,preferably not large portions.For example if you decide to eat a steak,add abundant salad,like tomatoes,cucumber,lettuce etc.add some oil(Olive is the best)..if you choose to eat carbohidrates take a loaf of bread and make a sandwich with all you have in mind without cheese,meat etc. If you stick to that,naturally for at about a week or so you'll reduce your weight with 3 to 5 kilograms. Drink a few cups od green tea,fresh juices..as to your phisical activity REally amazing is the effect of WALKING..JUST WALK(5-6km per day)..and let me know how's going in..Good luck!!

Depends on what you eat.  You need to combine excercise with a diet low in calories.

*Wincing for that is a misconception that Atkins = greasy foods* Now while I myself have always eaten what would be termed an Atkins styled diet, the meat ect is low in fat (fat trimmed beef, seafood, poultry, cept I do drink whole milk and eat regular cheese and a lot of nuts).\n\nPersonally and I'm astounded how long it is taking nutritionists to figure this out, I feel it is best to tailor a diet to your specific metabolism. I as an O blood type, high metabolism do best on high protien, low fat, low carb foods.\n\nYou on the other paw are probably different than I and might do better eating more fruits and veggies than I.\n\nPersonally I'd drop the greasy food and eat high protein low fat foods if you wanna do Atkins style.\n\nBut even better explore a tailor made diet that is designed for your metabolism and I've provided a few links below so you can look it up...

Fish is one of the best things to eat on any diet because it is full of nutrients. and if you are on no carbs, then this is even more perfect as long as you dont get it breaded/fried. other than that, stick with you basic chicken, lots of fruits and vegetables. if you are trying to lose wait, do not use dips or cheese on anything and always buy lowfat-nonfat items.

a good weightloss diet allows you to loose no more then 1-2 pounds per week.You need to loose slowly so that you do not lower your metabolic rate.\n\nEmphasize lots of vegetables,fruits,and legumes,small amounts of lean protein,and some nuts and seeds.Use the whole grains,instead of white rice,use brown,do not use anything made from white or milled grains.\n\ndrink plenty of water,and learn the portions and calories in the foods you eat,use olive oil,flax oil and monounsaturated fats instead of corn oil,and other damaging hydrogenated fats. \nStay away from sugar,proccessed foods and other junk.\n\nThis combined with exercise will start you on the right path,research and read books on fitness and diet,by checking them out from the library and educate yourself,that is a very important thing... GOOD LUCK!

Dieting is always difficult, unless you REALLY put your mind to it. You will never lose weight unless your mind and body is very strong and you are completely focused and ready for it. The thing that I have taught people when I was a physical trainer was to eat often, but very lightly. Stay away from 3 major things....bread, pasta, and rice. Do not eat anything that has flour or has carbs. The best diet is to stay on a low carb diet and eat often. Try to eat 6-8 times a day but only a handful of things that will get you through the day. A big mac and anything full of fat and high carbs will add those cellulite on quickly.
