Losing weight anywhere is a lifestyle.Keep a journal of your food intake.Set a goal and have a plan about how you will achieve it. Make sure it includes lots of veggies and fruits,preferably  real juice. Eat a hearty breakfast,one with a lot of fibre. Exercise either with the help of a physical trainer or on your own.Sit ups,push up,walking etc. will start you if you do not have an exercise machine/gym at home.Since August 2005 I have lost at least 2-4 inches  in my stomach area etc. and I will lose more. I have to walk to the bus stop as the vehicles are not working. My brother,who spends time in the garden, puts on weight but loses it like butter in a skillet.He keeps moving and gets off his butt for most of the day. Sedentary workers need to keep this in mind.Choose to be healthy and work at it daily.

Eat around 5 or 6 SMALL meals a day. Lift weights and do plenty of cardio. Remember, you have to burn more calories than you take in to lose fat. Also a fat burning supplement can speed up the process with exercise if you're body can handle it. Eat good food, not junkfood, watch you're carbs and fats and take in plenty of protein, protein burns fat, also cut out sodas and drink plenty of water.

You cannot target fat-loss to an area of the body by doing an exercise that works the muscle in that area.  This method has never worked in the history of mankind.  Your body will lose fat in a genetically-predisposed manor, you cannot change it.\n\nTo lose body fat, you have to clean up your diet, eat every 3-4 hours (starting with breakfast!), work your ENTIRE body (weights, cardio, the whole bit), and get plenty of good rest.

First of all if your child is causing you problems while you are exercising, I suggest that you let a relative, friend, or someone you trust babysit him/her. But if that's not the case then I suggest for you to exercise daily and eat health. Think about how nice you would be looking if you do lose all that weight by summer. \n\nYOUR DIET??????????????????\nIt not nesserly means to not eat anything, but to watch what you are eating.When I say eat healthy that means try to eliminate fried, cooked food or fast food. Instead eat vegetables, fruits, grain cereal, drink water, and eat a balanced meal. Try to eliminate any other drink that is not water because most drinks them have too many carbohydrates or added sugars.\n\nExercising??????????????????\nTry to set a goal for yourself. Do aerobics, exercise videos, running, or mainly focus in your abdonimal area. \n\nTo it to impress your self and because you are a winner and not a failer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!\nTry not to give up and have faith in your self. While you are exercising think about all the hard work that's going to pay off when you are in the beach in your bikini. Find ways to motivate your self. Invite some friends to go run or exercise with you.\n\nDo as follow and you will see great results. But if for any reason you don't find the results that will satisfy you, try this other alternative..........\n\nHave you heard of the Atkins Diet?????????????\nThe Atkins Diet consists of you eating as much (certain) food as you want and loosing lots of weight. Of course by exercising too. \n\nThe Plan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!\nEat has much meat as you want or any food that has few carbohydrates. You should eat any kind of  meat, eggs, sugar free jello(has to be sugar-free), creamcheese, whip cream, and any kind of chesse. All these foods have few carbohyrates. The main plan is to watch out in the amount of carbohyrates you eat. Don't eat any kind of bread or food that has many carboyrates. Because if you do the diet and end up eating a lots of carboyrates the diet is not going to work and you will not lose weight. I recommend you to follow the diet strictly because it does give you great results.\nHowever if you are interested find out more about the diet in the internet\n\nRemember the best way to lose weight is by setting a plan that will help you stay focused.

Just think on how fat you can get, and all the work you'll have to do to loose that extra.\n\nYou R what you eat

If you want to do it safely, here are some tips:\n\n(1) Drink only water, skim milk, and unsweetened tea or coffee -- if you can't stand the taste, you can use Splenda.  Drink LOTS of water!!!\n\n(2) Eat six small meals/snacks a day instead of three meals a day -- it keeps your metabolism running high without taking in too much food, which is stored as fat\n\n(3) Eat breakfast EVERY DAY within 90 minutes of waking up -- people who don't are 450% more likely to be overweight\n\n(4) Take a tablespoonful of olive oil three times a day -- it's a natural appetite suppressant and it's full of "good" fat that helps keep your cholesterol levels where they need to be\n\n(5) The rest of the diet is common sense -- aim for whole grain products, lean meats (especially fish and poultry), lowfat dairy products, nuts, eggs, and fresh fruits/vegetables.  Avoid fast food, junk food, soft drinks, and anything with processed flour or sugar in it.\n\n(6) Exercise EVERY DAY.  Walk as much as you want, but don't do cardio for more than 40 minutes at a time -- you'll risk burning muscle instead of fat.  If you have a gym membership or you have weights, best way to lose weight is circuit training with light weights and no rest in between exercises.\n\nWARNING:  DO NOT STARVE YOURSELF!!!  Anything under 1,500 calories a day and you're playing with fire.  When your body goes into starvation mode it greedily hangs on to every last bit of fat you have and burns muscle instead.  Don't go there.\n\nGood luck!

You are right, what parent would tell their child they were fat!?\n\nDo one thing, next time you are at the doctor's office have the nurse weigh you and then ask the doctor how you compare to other healthy girls your age.  Then you will know if you are just being crazy or if you should watch what you eat.\n\nIf you should watch what you eat, then try this first:\n\nStop drinking sodas!(or pick the worst thing you do regularly, like eat french fries, or drink whole milk and stop that one thing).\n\nThen do this next:\n\nReplace your worst habit with a good habit.  Drink diet sodas (I know sometimes they taste bad, but it is better than nothing, even if it isn't quite as good as drinking a lot of H20).\n\nEasy right!  Just stop one thing and replace it with one thing.  Do it until you feel you love what you do.  It will help you to feel a bit skinnier, and successful.  You are being healthy!  Awesome.  Now, you can try another thing...like....you be creative.....always improving is what it is all about.\n\nOne last thing; if a new food or habit should come along (ie smoking) save yourself the trouble of having to quit it in the future.....don't start bad habits.  Don't start being addicted to cheesecake if you aren't already.\n\nLearn moderation while you are young, you will be so happy with yourself when you turn 30.  Haha.\n\nGood luck my friend

cut out all breads and starchy foods like pasta and rice.  Cut down or out on your sugars as well.  Those turn to fat faster than anything else.  Eat high protein meals like fish, chicken, vegatables, etc.  Eat 5 to 6 times a day, small meals.  Salad with a can of tuna, no mayonaise, just tuna on bed of lettuce with carrots and a light oil and vinager dressing.  Do not eat past 7:00pm.  Breakfast should consist of oatmeal, bran cerial, etc.  Excersize ever day.  If it's dancing, or walking/running, riding a bike.  You simply have to get your metabolizm up and burn more calories than you take in.  Cut out sodas.  Drink plenty of water.  8 or more large glasses a day.  Water flushes system.  \nThe best excersize for loosing the tummy is leg lifts.  If you can do one, you can do two.  Hang from a bar, hard if you don't have a machine, but you need a bar that is over your head and will support your weight.  Hang from it, then simply lift your legs, bending knees and try to touch your chest with your knees.  This works the abdomen, lower back, and sides.  The "spare tire".  Crunches help but don't work out all the muscles.  The diet it the big thing.  More meals, less quantity in each meal, makes your body get used to eating often so it digests food faster.  High protein diets and low fat are the key.

What your doing is fine, try to work other exercises into your day. take the stairs instead of the elevator. walk your kids to school. quick stuff like that.   Be your own trainer and nutritionist, the basic rules to losing weight are no soda, no fast food, lots of chicken, fish, fresh (not canned that’s bad) fruits and vegies, whole wheat stuff, yogurt. Not so many cakes and donuts and cookies. Basic common sense for eating, you just need to enforce it. Get all the bad stuff out of the house right away, just toss it or give it away while your still motivated. No alcohol and no smoking  if that applies. Some juice but make sure its all natural, because the ones that aren't are loaded with sugar and a leading cause in diabetes in children and adults. Lots of water, 3-4 liters a day, not all at once, but spread it out. Its really easy to down a liter or two while your watching tv or on the computer. Also drink some after you eat the bigger meals of the day, it helps your body pick out the nutrients in food when your food is more spread apart.  You also need to stay away from any sports drinks unless you’ve just had a long workout and then you need to limit yourself.  Most atheletes mix Gatorade with water because its two  complex for your body to get all the nutrients out of.  It needs to be diluted.  These rules may be hard to adapt to at first so start with cutting out the things you know you can live without.  Then work from there.  Remember these are  perfect eating habits, it can take you a while to work into it.  If you know you can’t live without your one treat a day, don’t fight it by trying to eat something else, just eat it and make sure that’s the only one you cheat on a day.  Otherwise you’ll get depressed and quit.  Another important point is getting the right amount of sleep every night.  You need 8-9 hours of sleep each night for your body to function correctly.  This is an important factor of losing weight.  Set up a routine for yourself and go to bed at about the same time each night.  \n A cheap investment is a balance ball, it works you stomach while your just sitting on it, like at your computer and its great for posture. There are hundreds of exercises you can use it for for your entire body. I can give you some ideas if you want, just email me.

Honestly if you need anything else don't hesitate to IM me, krista_girl86 even if you don't pick me as best answer, i'd be happy to help.  Also check out the website for the tv show The Biggest Loser on NBC.  There are many, many helpful facts on there.

My dad recently went on his own personal diet to lose weight, and boy did it work. Here it goes:\nEat a lot healthier. Try to avoid meat, and eat lots of vegetables and fruits. Cut down your portions at meals. STAY AWAY from fast food. Protien and fiber are a must. \n\nWhy can't you exercise? Try it. Exercise a lot: my dad goes to the health club 3 days a week and uses our treadmill at home almost every day for over an hour. He's been on this diet for 3 months, and he lost 60 pounds.

Jenny Craig and such make life easy but you can do it without it.  You don't say how old your kids are but the most important thing is to get active and eat healthy.  I know easy answers would be nice but not here in the present.  \n\nThe first thing I would recommend doing is getting outside and being active.  The advice from the others is right.  Go outside and walk.  the first week try 30 minutes.  this is power walking not a stroll. The first walk will be easy the second will be harder but eventually this will become habit.  However, it takes forever for the habit to form.  The second week, try to walk for 45 minutes.  When you can get up to an hour of walking 4 times a week you will be doing good.\n\nSomeone once recommended when grocery shopping only buy things around the edges.  This is where the unprocessed foods were.  Fresh fruit and veggies, meat, and dairy.  Not bad advice.  The more processed food is, the worse it is for you and actually your children.  Load up on the fruits and veggies, and check out the other nutrition advice on answers.  You can find out a lot about eating.  \n\nGood luck, and I am sure you can do it.  It will take time but you can do it.  Successful long-term weight loss requires a change in habits but just know you will be setting an awesome example for your children.

Start out by walking 1-2 miles a day. Cut out all junk food. Eat only Raw foods (Fresh, not processed foods) No fries (Unless baked in the oven. Follow serving sizes on foods. Stick to low-fat, but not necessarily fat-free. You need at least 20% fat per day in your diet. Remember that losing weight and keeping it off means lifetime changes, not just temporary.
