You don't need excessive exercise.  You need moderate exercise and reduced calorie intake.  You will have to do some exercising, but you don't have to be a gym-bunny.

Break down your goals into mini goals so that they seem more managable.  For instance, if you want to lose 30 pounds, break it down into six five pound mini milestones.  When you reach each milestone, give yourself a non-food treat, like a manicure or a new outfit.\n\nMake a plan to lose weight like going for a walk with your kids 5 days a week.  Get support from friends and family.  If you have a workout partner, you'll be less likely to skip your workout "date".\n\nMake a list of reasons that you want to lose weight like having more energy.  When you feel like skipping a workout, go to the list for a good reason not to skip it.

The best way is with diet and exercise, and you should exercise. Your goal shouldn't be to lose weight it should be to get in the best possible health than you can be.

Go to the gym! Do five minutes of cardio to get your heart rate going, then do some weights, and finally do about a half hour of cardio. You will shed pounds quickly this way (I did).\n\nAlso, be thoughtful about what you eat. Try to take on more fresh fruits and veggies and fewer heavier items. (Dunkin Donuts will NOT help you lose weight!)\n\nI don't think you need to lose weight though. I think you're gorgeous.

First of all, be realistic with your weight loss goals- I don't think you need to lose as much as you think you do!  Ok, that said, start with some activity that you will enjoy- walking is the easiest way to get started for most folks.  Swimming is another great one if you have access to a pool.  Be careful with the vegetarian diet- cheese is often in many vegetarian dishes, and can add a lot of excess calories and fat.  Good Luck!

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

DO NOT GO ON A DIET! because:\n1. you'll gain all the lost weight back.\n2. you'll face risk of developing an eating disorder.\nI think it's very unlikely one can lose 10 lbs without exercising. but you can deceive yourself. try doing something you like:\nswimming?\ntennis?\nbiking?\ndancing?\njumping?\nwalking?\ncleaning?\nwhatever you can think of and it has to be something you really like doing.

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.

Without a proper diet and exercise program, you can not lose weight. Instead of 3 meals a day, eat 6 SMALL meals. Drop your carb and fat intake, as it is obviously too high. Cut out ALL sweets... no more deserts. Treat fast food like the plague that it is... in other words, don't do it! Drink LOTS of water, drink NO sodas. Up your activity level and get on an exercise program 5 days a week. You may not want to exercise now, but after a week or so of it (especially once you start seeing results in strength, endurance, and physique) you will find it addictive and you will have no trouble maintaining it.\n\nThere's no quick fix. You either need to change your entire life style, or forget it. Watch that show on TV... "The Biggest Loser"... they'll show you how it's done, as well as inspire you to do it yourself. http://www.nbc.com/the_biggest_loser/...\n\nGOOD LUCK!!!

There is no such product.  There are only two ways to lose weight: 1) eat a healthy diet with a lot of whole grains, fruits, and vegetables; 2) get at least 30 minutes of exercise, daily.  Doing these things will guarantee that you stay healthy at any weight.

Eat lots of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean meats.  Avoid fatty, fried, and processed foods.\nStart exercising.  If you have been sedentary for an extended period of time, start of slow, walking every other day for about 20-30 minutes.  When you can do this comfortably and without getting out of breath, increase your time, and frequency of sessions.\nYou should also start lifting weights or doing resistance training.  To lose weight, you need to build muscle.  Only work a section of your body 2-3 days a week to begin with.  When you lift weights, you get small tears in the muscles.  When they heal or repair themselves is when you build a little bit more muscle, so you don't want to overdo it or hinder muscle growth.  Good luck!

Eating healthy, consistent exercise and lots of water is the right way to start and are important for a healthy lifestyle but they won't necessarily cause you to lose weight.\n\nTo use exercise to lose weight:\nYour cardio exercise should have your heart rate at a minimum of 80% of maximum which is generally 220 - age\nand maintain that for over 20 minutes. At 20 minutes, your blood glucose level is depleted and your muscles start to burn fat so every minute beyond 20 minutes you are directly burning fat. If you increase your muscle mass, it does increase your weight since muscle is denser than fat but you burn more calories even when you are resting when you have more muscle. \n\nThe last five-ten pounds will not come off so easily however short of starting a fitness plan that has you training for a marathon (running so much that it matters less about much you eat though what you eat will affect performance).
