Need upper body weight loss?

Lori, there is no such thing as spot reducing.  You can't isolate upper body weight loss.  If you lose weight, you will lose it everywhere.  \n\nYou only have 5 weeks to work with so that's not very much time, but it's also not a reason to do anything drastic.  You don't want to lose too much weight (including water weight) otherwise your dress won't fit at all.  \n\nToning your upper body musculature may be your only chance.  High-repetition training may allow you to better mobilize fat in larger muscle groups, but it's a long shot and this is unlikely achievable in 5 weeks, especially if you're inexperienced in resistance/weight training.  The best advice I can give you is to seek the professional guidance of a personal trainer so that they can put you on the right program for your needs.  I'm not saying it's impossible, but the time restriction is definitely working against you.\n\nGood luck.

If your arms are muscular you can eithr just stop lifting weights or lift very light weights with lots of repetitions.\n\nBut if they got fat/flabby, then you just need to watch our diet and exercise.  There is no way force yor body to lose weight in some certain area of your body.  Just start losing weight and your arms will get slimmer.\n\nIf the arms ae flabby because they have extra skin from the weight you lost, then there is not much you can do except have a sugery to get rid of the extra skin.  Or you can bulk up, and fill the extra skin with muscle.

A healthy, balanced diet (lean proteins, veggies, fruits, dairy) and adding exercise will help your entire body lose weight.  You cannot target one spot on your body i.e. your face.

Arm area\nTry the One-Arm Row! \n\nStand with your feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and with a slight bend in your knees. Hold a dumbbell in your right hand. Take a step forward with your left foot, bend your left knee, and lean forward from your waist about 45 degrees. Place your left hand on your left thigh to support your back. Extend your right arm down toward the floor. \n\nKeep your abs tight and back flat as you exhale and pull the weight up toward your armpit, as if you were tugging on the starter to a lawn mower. Inhale and lower. \n\nTo pinpoint the correct back muscle, retract your shoulder blades as you keep your elbow close to your body throughout the movement. You should feel the inside of your upper arm brush slightly against your ribs as you raise and lower the weight. \n\nIf you experience back discomfort, lean against a chair to release any pressure from your lower back. \n\nStand with your left palm against the seat of the chair, with your left leg forward and right leg back. Hold a weight in your right hand. Keep your abs tight and back flat as you exhale and pull the weight up toward your armpit, as if you were tugging on the starter to a lawn mower. Inhale and lower\nhttp://www.deniseaustin.com/exercises/arm_exercises.asp?source=GOTO&KEYWORD=how+to+lose+arm+fat&OVRAW=lose%20weight%20in%20arm%20and%20waist&OVKEY=how%20to%20lose%20arm%20fat&OVMTC=advanced\n\n As part of your routine activities: \n-Walk, wheel, or bike ride more, drive less.\n-Walk up stairs instead of taking an elevator.\n-Get off the bus a few stops early and walk or wheel the remaining distance.\n-Push a stroller.\n-Clean the house.\n-Do exercises or pedal a stationary bike while watching television.\n-Play actively with children.\n-Take a brisk 10-minute walk or wheel in the morning, at lunch, and after dinner. \n \n As part of your exercise or recreational routine: \n-Walk, wheel, or jog.\n-Bicycle or use an arm pedal bicycle.\n-Swim or do water aerobics.\n-Play racket or wheelchair sports.\n-Golf (pull cart or carry clubs).\n-Canoe.\n-Cross-country ski.\n-Play basketball.\n-Dance\n-Take part in an exercise program at work, home, school, or gym.

There is no way to lose that much weight in that period of time that doesn't involve removing something.  If you try a fad diet, or starvation, all that will happen is you will make yourself too ill to go on the trip and may end up in the hospital.  Better to sensibly diet to lose around 10, and buy a girdle, if you are really thinking your appearance is more important that the pleasure of your presence.  Otherwise,go as you are.  I'm sure they won't mind at all.

I assume you're a female and yes weight loss is different for males.  I would definitely consider seeing a pro, (Doc, Dietitian, or a Fitness Trainer) or search the web.  You listed age and shape, although helpful, all factors like race, health, condition and location would give you a thorough accurate workout / diet.  And yes your diet does suck.  When your body is starved of protein and energy it shuts down and stores fat so you don't die.  If you receive proper amounts of protein and exert your muscles than fat in your body starts melting and muscle mass increases.

weight is not meant to be lost quickly. That causes injury.

Yes, you are fairly overweight. You need to find a good diet plan and exercise routine to get your weight down to at least 155lb-160lb. Your body fat percentage should not be higher than 32% if you are female and not higher than 25% if you are male. HTH.

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.

Exercise is great and necessary ... \nTrue weight loss depends on what you put in your mouth, and you're body's ability to change what you put into your mouth into energy.
