The average weight for someone your height should be between 180 and 185 pounds.  The more you exercise, the more fat you will burn.  You will also create more muscle by exercising.  Muscle weighs more than fat, so you may think your weight is too high, but if you have good muscle tone you are just right!

OK, first of all, you are not overweight. You are tall and weigh what you are supposed to. What you can do is exercise the areas you are not happy with. If you starve yourself or eat very little, you will only slow down your metabolism and gain a bunch of weight once you start eating normally. Don't play games with your health.

It's funny, people will do anything to lose weight except what really works:  eat healthy and exercise.  Do NOT starve yourself, you will just slow down your metabolism and actually gain weight.  \n\nYou already know what is healthy food and what isn't.  Eat something (a healthy snack) at least every 4 hours, preferably every 3 hours, to keep your metabolism up.  \n\nAerobic exercise, 30 minutes a day, 3 days a week.  Don't work out so hard that you are out of breath and exhausted, you should still be able to talk while you are exercising.  But get your heart pumping and sweat a little.  Add some light weightlifting because muscle burns more calories than fat.  \n\nStart slow and work your way up.  Don't expect overnight results.  Losing just 2 pounds a week is healthiest, and will increase your chances of keeping the weight off.\n\nDon't concentrate on the number on the scale, or have a goal weight in mind.  What's more important is how you feel and if you are happy with how you look.

how tall are you?  should you weigh 160-170lbs?  That's alot of weight to lose in less than 2 months.  You better go on a very strict diet, no more than 500cal/day, drink loads of water, and do cardio work out for a minimum of 4 hours a day, you have to burn that flab off if you want to lose that much that fast.  Do a couple hours of light weights too.  You will have to burn about 4 times your daily intake, at least.

20lbs in 6 weeks? sounds like a lot of people agree with that, and sure, you can do it! but theres a downside to that, a big downside, if you lose more than about 1 pound a week, you wont keep the weight off very long... thats simply because if you go on an extreme diet just to lose weight quickly, your not gonna stick with the diet... exercise is important, and f*ck that not lifting weights! in my opinion there is no such thing as a healthy weight, there are healthy body fat percents and such, but healthy weight? if you are 5'6 and 180lbs but in very good shape, slim, lots of muscle and stuff, you are technically over weight, but you're much healthier than you would be if you were the same height and weighed 10 pounds less but were chubby and out of shape... plus, for every pound of muscle you burn something like 30 more calories a day than you would otherwise... so really, do you want to lose pounds or inches? and do you want to lose it temporarly or permanently? personally, I'd chose inches and permanently...

First thing first...Don't stress. Cut down on the junk food and start drinking a lot of water about 2 gallons a day. Eat small meals every 2-3 hours. Healthy meals with a lot of fruits and vegtables, not a lot of red meat of fat. Try eating more chicken(boiled, barbequed, broiled) also try eating salmon or any other low fat fish. If you do that combined with a jog or brisk walk everyday for an hour of would you rather go the gym 3-4 times a week for 2 hrs you will be skinny in no time. The weight will be melting off. You will probably lose anywhere from 5-10 pounds a week for the first couple of weeks. After that don't get discouraged because the wight wont be comming off so quickly but it will come off be patient and think positive. It won't be easy but it will work. "Nothing in life is easy, you have to work for what you want"

the most important thing is exercising and eating right. dont bother trying to count calories, its a waste of time. just go for the more healthy foods, eat lots of veggies and fruits. but make sure you are exercising reguarly, it doesnt have to be every day, but it should be 3-5 times a week, maybe hit the gym or run or lift and do some sit ups a couple times of week. keep on playing basketball, maybe do it more often or for longer periods of time. just keep doing what your doing and you'll be down to 175 in no time!

if you want to lose weight, go on a diet like weight watchers, or something like that.  try to avoid stuff like slim-fast, cuz then when you eat something real, all the weight that you lost will just come back-like no other.  if you want to look better, i suggest excercise and a diet.  since muscle weighs more than fat, you will want to stay in shape while you try to lose weight, but dont over-do it.

If your 5' 6" then 120lbs isn't bad at all. but if you really want to loose extra weight, not eating isn't the answer. Not eating actually makes you gain weight because your body will just be running on fluids. If that happens you'll start to retain water and bloat. Not good. Here's how to loose some extra weight a little at a time.\n\n1)Don't drink anything carbonated (ex. soda, beer)\n2)Don't eat any excess sugar, no candy.\n3)Don't snack, eat a big 3 meals a day\n4)Don't eat to much red meat, it takes a while to digest\n5)Drink TONS of water, this will flush you system of anything bad (this also improves complexion and hair)\n6)try to exercise as much as possible!!

you basically have to ween yourself off of mcdonalds.  because it sounds like thats whats hindering your weight loss.  i lost 60 lbs, by working out, watching what i eat (i still ate my favorite greasy food at least once a week) and absolutely do not eat anything after 6pm.  If you follow this and keep working out, just watch the weight fall off.  You might plateau before you reach 40 but this will defintely help you loose at least 30 lbs.  good luck!!

Technically, you lose a pound after burning off 3,500 calories. At the rate you are suggesting, you would have burnt 400 more calories a day than you put into your body. You would *technically* lose a pound every 8.75 days. I don't know how much you weigh so I can't tell you how many calories you need to eat/not eat to lose weight. Starving yourself and working out like crazy isn't a healthy way to lose weight because eventually your body will go into "feast or famine" mode and you will stop losing weight to conserve what you do have left. Our bodies are great that way. You can lose a lot of weight at first but it isn't the kind of weight that will stay off (mostly water weight and muscle weight) once you start exercising and eating regularly. You can't starve yourself forever. Eat a healthy, balanced diet and it should fall into place for you.\n\nThe best way to lose weight is to gradually "trick" your body into getting by on less. If you stay with 1,200 calories a day, and you need to eat 2,000 to maintain your current weight, then that is 800 calories that you are burning daily, just by eating less. Add some moderate exercize that burns 300-500 calories a day and you will have burnt about 1,300 calories, just by living and being healthy. You should lose about a pound or two a week on this schedule, doing it sensibly and without starvation.\n\nRemember also that heavy exercise increases muscle mass, and that muscle mass adds poundage to you. That's good. You burn more calories with muscle than you do with fat. I wouldn't get so hung up on the numbers on the scale as I would with how clothes are fitting, what your friends are saying, etc. If you look good to your friends, and you feel okay inside about how you look, then it's a good weight. If you find yourself thinking you're unhealthy even though you're at a healthy weight, I'd seek some professional help.

Avg weight for someone 5'6" is 120-145. Start doing small spurts of cardio (even jogging in place in front of the TV!) 2x per day for 10 minutes. Like when you wake up and after dinner. This should boost your metabolism and start melting the weight off.

well tall i don't know about. It depends on your age - if your above twenty you'll probably have stopped your growth development. Its easy to lose weight however. A common misconception is that exercise helps you lose weight. Yes....maybe it does but not on its own. The way i did it was to have two bowls of cereal a day in place of breakfast and lunch and eat a sensible high protein meal for tea. And have a little something special in front of the tv but i recommend something delicious like a fruit express from del monte....mmmmm

If you lost 50 pounds all that leftover skin isn't fat.  Exercising will help tighten that up.  I would suggest seeing a plastic surgeon to get rid of the extra skin.  I am 6'3 and weigh 190lbs.  If you are a girl id say your weight is ok, but if you are a guy.  You need to gain a little weight because you are seriously underweight.  Good luck.  I drink a lot of Green Tea because it helps your metabolism, which in turn helps your body metabolise food faster.  Definitely exercising is key, and stay away from fast food.  I know it sounds crazy, but nutritionists say you should only eat Fast Food once a month if that.  Watch "Super Size Me" and it might change your view on fast food.
