Hi, What is the quickest & healthiest way to lose weight?
370994
There is no quick if you want healthy.  if you loose more than 2-3 lbs a week you are loosing unhealthy weight.  Usually just water, or muscle.  The only way to loose weight is to use more than you eat.  Yep, that means you gotta exercise.  Even if its walking instead of driving to the corner store, it adds up.  Try to stick with a balanced diet.  It's kinda hard trying to loose weight, but I'd recomend sticking with carbs.  Less fat and health risks.  That adkins thing, I'm iffy on.  Plus carbs help you feel full better than protein.  If you got a sweet tooth, try fruit.  It's sweet enough to curb a lot of cravings and low in calories.  A web search will get you a nutrition guide to the best fruits to eat.  Most are less than 100 calories so you can eat a lot.  And watch what you drink.  Sodas and juices have a lot of calories.  If you can cut that out, you might be able to make the calorie deficit you need.  That's all it takes for me.  Water gets boring fast, but there is a lot of 10 cal. mixes at the grocery store to give you flavor with out adding the other 160 calories.  Good luck.

you're probably not gonna want to hear this but there is no quick and safe way to lose weight; but there is a sure way. It will take some time. Increase your physical activity and reduce your caloric intake. Simply eat a little less and exercise a little more. Exercise doesn't have to be working out all the time. Any sustained  activity will work. Take brisk walks, wash your car, whatever. IT WILL WORK! you just have to be patient because it takes time but losing weight slower inceases the chances that it will stay off.No gimmicks or fad diets; just common sense.

Yeah the fastest and easiest and funniest is swimming... I know I know... maybe you don't have the money to do it... But if you live where a YMCA is you can go there anc get finacing I only had to pay 20 dollars a month for myself and my three other family members a month not bad and I lost the weight and it wasn't really work as I love to swim... another way is to walk in your free time... every other half hour or hour.. for 30 mins walk anywhere hills flat land what ever just do it.. sometimes your worse problems will be solved through walking plenty of timet o think.. and the wieght comes off. Drink 8 glass of water each day and then on top of that drink a glass and a half at least before every meal.. it fills you up faster... make your meal portions no bigger then your fist as your stomache is only supose to be as big as your fist.... so limit your protion sizes.. DOn't eat out to much once a week is fine to treat yourself stay away from the chocolate once a week is fine give yourself a treat for your work.. Don't deprive yourself when your hungry find a heathly snack canned fruit is good.. if you want to lose the weight fast and keep it off then do as I say and you will lose.. I weighed 199 lbs at 14 years old I lost 100 lbs in two months walking every other half hour drinking plenty of water before and after meals and 8 glass of water a day beyond that... I looked felt and sounded great. good luck to you .. I am now also on this diet trick again myself.. and fighting to lose my baby fat from my two girls I had I am 31 now.. and at 138 lbs... I have never gotten back up to the 199 lbs and don't plan to either but I would defently like to lose 30 lbs.... to get to my actual love weight lol. 110 is my goal.. wish you lived near by I would walk with you and we could keep each other company and going .. I ll pray for you and I hope you do the same for me.

Eat a BALANCED diet (don't starve yourself, and know that it's alright to occasionally indulge) and excercise regularily (make it fun, go for a walk, take the stairs instead of escalators) are the best ways to lose weight.

Depends if you want to keep the weight off!! Fad diets are good for losing weight fast, but they are short-term solutions to a long-term problem. The only way to lose weight and keep it off is by making lifestyle changes. I'm a member of www.sparkpeople.com (a free weight-loss program), which specialises in just that.\n\nGood luck

The best way to lose weight: \n\nExercise for 30-45 minutes a day. NO MORE! Your body will produce inflammatory chemicals if you exercise for longer periods a day which will cause you to keep more fat in your body, grow in waist size, and lose muscle mass.\n\nNEVER eat fast food! ...At all! Don't! I don't care if it is a "McDonalds Grilled Chicken Salad." It's bad for you. They load sugar (oh yeah, I'm not kidding) and addictive preservatives in foods which cause you to get hungrier and want more. Eat good, nutritious, healthy food... but remember: Always in moderation. People say red meat is bad for you. Well, it might be... but it doesn't hurt to eat a little bit. I'm not saying go and eat 14 lbs. of ground beef hamburgers. Use moderation. But here's a cool hint. Eat oranges and other citrus foods. They speed your metabolism. I honestly didn't know this but it worked. I lost a lot of weight. :-p\n\nEat often. Every three hours. Can't do it? Try. :-)\n\nDrink about 5-6 glasses of water a day. People say that you should drink 8-8oz. glasses of water a day... that's 2.2 Liters. Well... it's too much water. The body does need this much water to keep it hydrated, but you get a lot of water from everything you eat, too. So if you drink that much water, you end up with too much water in your body and you start to grow... this is known as 'water-weight.'\n\nTry to walk a lot throughout the day, as a part of your exercise. You can start off small, but gradually increase your goals. Power-walking 3 miles a day will do WONDERS for you. :-)

Most healthy and simple way... Burn more calories than you take in and I guarantee you will lose weight without crap and stuff it can make a big difference in just weeks.

Fast with protein shakes....but the weight will all come back and them some. \n\nLess food+ more exercise is the only way to really lose weight!

Don't target losing more than about 2 lbs per week. If you try to lose faster, your body will go into "starvation mode" and get very stingy about burning calories while at the same time very efficient about storing any calories that you do provide. And it will make you feel awful. \n\nThe most effective way to lose fat is aerobic exercise in the "moderate" fat-burning range, ideally first thing in the morning before you eat. When you wake your body is ready to burn fat and your levels of growth hormone are highest at that time. Later in the day it can take up to 30 minutes just to put your body into a fat-burning mode. \n\nAnother overlooked way to burn fat is by lifting weights. Skeletal muscle has very high caloric needs... almost twice that of adipose (fat) tissue. Put on a little muscle and you will burn calories all day even at rest. Be aware that skeletal muscle weighs more, so with this approach you may see your weight increasing while your body fat is melting away. Not realizing this often stresses folks who think they should be losing weight as a measure of fitness. Forget the scale, look in the mirror and you will be happy.\n\nTo lose a pound of fat, you need to eliminate about 3500 calories. You can do this by burning more with exercise or by modifying your diet to reduce intake. If you do a Google search on say, "swimming calories" you will quickly find a website with tables of calories burned for a given exercise. You can use such lists to estimate how many calories you are burning up with your routine.\n\nFor diet, keep a diary for a couple of weeks counting calories, grams of protein, and grams of fat intake. It is easy with online sources of nutritional information (type the name of the food and calories into the Google search engine) and packaging labels. That will let you quickly figure out where the fat is coming from in your diet. \n\nFat gives you 9 calories per gram. So take the number of grams of fat, multiply by 9, then calculate what percentage the fat calories are of your total daily calories. Restricting the calories from fat to about 20% of your total intake is ideal for a maintenance diet... that isn't overly restrictive. Of note, you need some fat in your diet. For instance, the body uses fat to produce hormones. Once you have a picture of how to modify your diet, you can drop the diary and just go back to it occasionally if you are wanting to tweek things further.\n\nThere is a subset of questions that goes further and asks about "How to get a six-pack?" The answer is the same. Six-packs are 20% abdominal exercise and 80% diet. There is one caveat... abdominal muscles will form in the position that you work them, so be certain to pull them tightly toward your spine while doing crunches, etc. Also, during most lifting, the "core is active" which means that you should be stabilizing with contracted abs then too. Fail to do this and the abs will form, but bulging outward and the result is not attractive.\n\nIf you are trying to build muscle as a way to lose fat, then you may need to increase total calories and specifically your protein intake. I target about 0.8 g of protein per pound of body weight each day when actively building. That is far more protein than most people need in their diets.\n\n\nAloha

It's really not healthy to lose a lot of pounds quickly.  Your best bet to lose weight & keep it off is to lose no more than 1 or 2 pounds a week.  Doing regular aerobic exercise and weight training along with eating a sensible low fat (lots of fruits & vegetables) diet will get you on your way.  You can get free workout plans and diet info at about.com in the fitness section and at fitrex.com.

My mom is a dietician, and she says that the safest, fastest way to lose weight is through diet and exercise. Its the only way to lose weight, and actually be able to keep it off. You might as well gain health and muscle while losing weight, instead of doing it the diet pill starvation way. She said that programs like Jenny Craig and Curves are really good, and she sees her patients have a lot of success with them. 50 lbs is a lot to lose, so maybe seeing a Nutritionist would help. They can set up an entire nutrition plan to help you meet your goals.

Do a tun of crunches. If you have like 30% plus body fat The fastest way to lose weight is to elevate your heart rate as many times and and as high as you can safely elevate it. Eat small portions of meals many times a day instead of really big portions only a few times a day. Jump rope rules. Anything running or sprinting will burn a super amount of calories, incomparable to weight lost just dieting.\n\nhttp://www.jimmyr.com/lose_weight.php

Eat breakfast. Eat lunch. (Must eat)\nAfter 7, never eat. If you have to drink water.\nHave a regular life style.\nReduce whatever you're eating to 1/2 or 3/4.\nTry to avoid fatty foods. And NO SNACKS!\nThis alone (w/o exercise) should make you lose weight really really fast.\nBut don't keep this up forever. Excercise is the only way on loosing weight and staying healthy.

Fast ways....eat how you normally do but during the first week take 2 bites less of everything. The next week 3 bites.....and so on...\n\nSecondly, take the stairs instead of the elevator. And park further out....Walk just a little faster. \n\nDance....if a song comes on you like...dance to it for 3 minutes or so. \n\nFinally, dont let yourself get frantic about losing weight. The stress only makes it harder.

Exercise and start calorie counting. Work out your BMR and try to eat about 500 calories a day less than this.\n\nRunning is one of the best ways to lose weight, cycling, swimming, rowing are also very good. If your not comfortable with these try dancing to your favorite music in your bedroom for an hour a day.\n\nDon't try to lose it too quickly, 2 pounds a week maximum, or your skin will not have time to adjust.\n\nGood luck.

Best way to lose weight is the longest way. U should lose ur weight slowly. \nU can do this cardio -also aerobic execises every day, its not unhealty. After 30 minutes cardio exercise, as physiological, ur body starts to burn fats! This is very important point. Also u must do this longer than 30 minutes. Optimum time is 45 minutes- 1,5 hours. \nBut u should also use a polar too, to see ur pulse per minute. For aerobic exercise -cardio- also to lose ur fat weight, your pulse per minute must be like in this formel: (220-ur age)x0.6 or 0.7. This is the approximate ideal pulse that u must have during exercise to lose ur fat weight. ( U dont run, u should jog ; this is different exercises!)\nU can find a lot of information about this in some exercise physiology books ( for example Fox's ; Katch etc.)\nGood luck... :))
