Healthy. If you have excess fat in your diet then you will have health problems. Too little though, and your cells will not have strong membranes and if you are a girl you will be less defined... Ever wonder why supermodels need plastic surgery...\n\nPeople have different natural sizes. Eat until you are full, snack on food that does not have the word lard, and you should be okay.

I'd say exercise is the best way to lose weight. It reduces your weight, can add tone to your body and is completely healthy. You do have to buy a Gym Membership, though. So eating less is probably cheaper because you buy less food. :O

Hi there, you cant simply lose the fat at a particular since it is not that area which is producing fat. for example, ppl with fat belly do thousands of sit ups and not seeing nicer belly. ( nothing against fat people :) )\n\nTo lose weight, the best thing is to do cardiovascular exercises like biking, jogging, walking at a fast pace...You are supposed to do them on an empty stomach in the morning or in the evening. The reason why we do it on an empty stomach is bcos u dont hav any food in ur body that it needs fuel to get energy for u to do that exercise.. Then, your body resorts to burning the body fat as a fuel. Do cardio for 40-45 mins 6-7 times a week. But, note this that cardio takes 30% and diet takes 70%. So eat 4-5 small meals a day which contains low carbs, high quality protein ( lean read meat such as chicken breast, nuts ( they hav good fats which make u lose bodyfat and good for general health ), beans, turky, tuna ) and lot of vegetables ( dont eat junk food like french fries or McDonal food or stuff ). By eating smaller meals more frequently the metabolism become fast and it help ur body put in an anabolic state which is good for losing fat. And avoid eating sugary food , sweets and the likes. Try to hav less stress ( just try to think that argument or whatever problem is not gonna kill u that you dont really hav to care much, for example). And try to get restful sleep around 7 hrs a day. SO, that is everything u hav to do. You will see the difference in 2-3 mths if u follow them strictly. \n\ntruth be told that alcohol , beer is very fattening and it decreases ur testosterone level resulting in estrogen increase which encourage ur body to gather more and more fat. And Fruits !! when losing fat, avoid fruits bcos they contains sugar and stuff which are fattening. Good luck :)

Exercise. No amount of dieting will build muscle. Exercise will. It will also burn fat. Forget all about dieting and just work on getting exercise three times a week. No point in dieting if you're not going to exercise. Almost all people who just diet gain the weight back.

You don't decide where the flab dissapears from no matter what anyone says, your body decides this.  If you lose weight you will lose it in a certain part of your body first, or all over a little at a time, or everywhere but one place.  You cannot control it.  I'd say just keep losing until the flab is gone from the areas you care about.

Both! You may consume less than 20g of carb a day but that's not gonna help you lose weight if you're taking in, say, 2000 kcal?

There is NO way that you will get fat. You have burned off more than enough calories to not get fat!!!!\nx x x

Exercise helps turn fat into muscle. However if you really want to lose weight, it's all in the food - eat less, avoid fats and carbs, or try a diet which you can probably find on specialized websites.

i't hard to say... it shounds like you are going to lose weight fairly quickly, but at the same time, i think you are going to build muscle, which weighs more than fat... so you will lose some weight, and then gain some (which is good, less fat and more muscle...)\nhealthy is about a pound a day (i think) so if you are around there then you're doing good...\ncongrats on getting into a healty routine and the best of luck!!!

The advice you were given is not true at all. I've also heard people say if you life wieghts for a while and quit, the muscle will turn to fat. Not true! If you start working out and quit, you will be a little better in shape and are not prone to gaining more weight. Tell that person who told you that, they are full of it!

Running is better because it burns off more calories in the same amount of time than walking. So running is more effective, but it may put more strain on the joints of the body, esp the ankles, so you should have the appropriate footwear. Also, make sure you don't eat more to compensate for the calories you lose during the exercise. \nNot eating after 6pm is another good way to lose weight. Don't go to bed on a full stomach!!

Neither. I want to be healthy. Right now I'm overly fat, but I DO NOT want to be scary skinny... they look horrible. Besides, why would I want to get rid ALL of my fabulous curves? My fiancee would be heartbroken. (grin)

i guarantee you it is muscle...muscle is heavier than fat for one.  It also depends on what type of exercises u do.  Brisk walking is the best way to lose weight for one.  But u really dont seem to have a weight problem.  A person of your height and weight doesnt really seem to be bad.  \n\nCut out too many carbohydrates...eat more salad vegetables, fish and lean meat.  Dont drink alcohol and if u like softdrink drink diet ones.  And if u like snacks try to find lighter or less fat options.\n\nHope that helps

How many pounds do  you intend to lose? As how we grow fat, we know it how our body accumulate fat. So to reverse it, I think you know more than we do how is your body metabolism working. Just go on a healthy diet. The fastest way is to go through operation.

Actually the best remedy is a combination of both.  We just have to burn more calories than we consume everyday to lose that awful fat.  I have found that by exercising the first thing in the morning (like orbitrae-stationery bike etc.) and then reduce the calorie intake by even just a little, awakens the metabolism and burns the calories that I do eat better.  The combined effort is the more natural and long lasting method to feel and look better.  We just want to go into our reserves (excess fat) everyday to lose weight.  And the combination program is easier and safer.  Crash diets only increase our appetite when we stop and most of us don't have the time to exercise sufficiently over long periods of time.  Good luck and be consistent and determined
