Restricted Exercise Weight Loss?
919483
I am overweight as well and have been trying walking to no avail and eliminating several foods (Starbucks, no sugar in coffee,etc.) but not seeming to work. One of my doctors has suggested Yoga, which I am signing up for and another doctor told me to get 5lb weights and do repititions on arm exercises and also do some squats. He said that until I worked my core and built up my muscles I was not going to see anything significant. Hope this helps. Good Luck and Blessings on your Wedding!

Cut down on portions.  Make it a rule to leave a meal satisfied, but not full.  Increase your exercise.  Its my opinion that you need a certain amount of exercise to trigger weight loss.  But I'm not an expert.

Whether you like him or not, you have to respect Dr Phil just because of one thing.\n\nHe continually asks his guests’ one simple question: "How's it working for you?"\n\nSuccess in anything comes from FINDING WHAT WORKS then DOING WHAT WORKS.\n\nI am going to reveal to you the “Secret Weight Loss Formula” that Celebrity personal trainers use to get their clients lean and fit in record time.\n\nBefore I reveal the secret, first I need to explain to you that there is process that your body goes through to burn body fat. \n\nSo how does your body burn fat?\n\nIt is a two-step process and in order to lose body fat you need to:\n\n1.Release the fat from the fat cells and only then\n2.You can burn the fat\n\nHow does your body release the fat from the cells?\n\nBefore you can turn your body into a fat burning machine, here’s what needs to happen: your body fat needs to be released from the fat cells. You can accomplish this step successfully with your nutrition program. Here are some specific tips that you can apply right away to achieve that.\n\n1.Eat 4-6 small, frequent meals and never skip meals.\n2.Eat natural foods; avoid processed & refined foods\n3.Eat lean proteins with each meal.\n4.Eat more complex carbs, fruits & vegetables.\n5.Drink plenty of water\n\n\nHow does your body burn the fat? \n\nWhen you go on a restrictive diet and then combine it with excessive cardiovascular workouts. You are destined to reach the dreaded weight loss plateau.\n\nHere is the reason behind the plateau; you have burned more muscle tissue than fat with your workouts (and restrictive dieting). This is the worst thing that could happen if you want long term and permanent results.\n\nLet me explain. \n\nExcessive cardio + restrictive dieting = Less Muscle mass = slower metabolism = Weight loss plateau = Yo-Yo dieting\n\nSo how do you break this vicious cycle?\n\nHow to burn fat instead muscle mass?\n\nYou need to do some MODERATE cardio training. The key word here is moderate. \nCombining restrictive dieting with too much cardio can be detrimental and I am sure you have seen those people that are doing cardio on a daily basis and still not getting anywhere. The result is a low metabolism. Low metabolism means, your body fat is not going anywhere, anytime soon. Here is what you need to do:\n\n1.Do some moderate cardio training; the key word here is moderate\n2.Never “diet” but consume just a little fewer calories than you do burn on a daily basis (No starvation diets, Please...)\n\nYour muscle tissue is your best friend when it comes to burning body fat. You need to preserve muscle tissues in order to keep losing weight. \n\nMost people go on a starvation diet combined a lot of cardio to lose weight. At first it may seems like this is working because the scale is saying so.  \n\nNow think about, scale weight does not tell you if weight loss is from fat, water or muscle tissue. Starvation diets combined with excessive cardio make you lose mostly muscle mass, water weight. \n\nScale weight by itself is not a good indicator of success.\n\nThe solution\n\nTo maintain muscle mass you need to:\n1.Do some resistance training. (This is not optional, it is mandatory)\n\n\nThe secret\n\nNow that you understand the whole fat burning process, I am going to reveal to you how celebrity personal trainers do to get those amazing transformations. The strategy is to combine all the steps that I outlined so the body works as a unit.  First, the trainer makes sure that his client is eating the proper food on a regular basis. \n\nBy that, I mean eating so that fat WILL be released from the fat cells. Then and only then they exercise the body to burn the fat. The important idea to take from this is:\n\n"The fat can ONLY be burned after it is released from the fat cells".\n\nIf you know anybody that has been exercising like a maniac and they don't seem to go anywhere, now you know why.\n\nThe reverse is also true, do you know some

I cant suggest actual exercises for you to do, but make sure you eat regular meals and snacks which contain plenty of carbs otherwise you will lose weight....;

I think adjusting your diet would be the 1st step. Include more vegetables and fruits in your daily intake.\n\nSome exercise would help in reducing your weight. Start with some walking if you haven't had any exercise for a long time. Gradually do jogging when you feel that you have reached a plateau, ie. weight is no longer reducing.\n\nIf you don't like to jog, you can try other sports like going to the gym, swimming, yoga, pilates, kick boxing, body combat, etc.\n\nAs for your menses, maybe you should see the doctor about it. It could be due to anything.

If weight loss is what you're looking for then here's what you need. The best combination for weight loss is calorie restriction, resistance training, and aerobic work. Let's start with calorie restriction. Over the years I have had personal training clients as well as athletes come to me wondering why they are not losing weight. They tell me they eat right, exercise right, say their prayers, eat their vitamins, etc., and they just can't seem to lose weight. Well, most of the time, once I really get to know them, I find that nutrition is the culprit. You need to know what you're eating. Most of the people I'm talking about all thought they did. \n\nHow do you change this? Well, it may sound tough, but it's not that bad. You need to keep track of what you eat for 2 days over the week, and 1 day over the weekend. Next, go to you're local book store. You can find charts, books, and computer programs that will help you analyze the foods you ate. Another suggestion would be to take your dietary recall to a nutritionist or exercise physiologist at your local college and let them find it for you. \n\nThese recalls will tell you how many calories you're getting plus where they are coming from. For example, are they coming from protein, carbohydrate, or fat. It will help you see where you stand nutritionally. \n\nNext, you need to get on a good strength program. When a person is losing weight, the weight comes from fat, as well as muscle. That's kind of an unfortunate thing because muscle is an important thing when keeping metabolism high. There is enough research out there to safely say that when going through a phase of high intensity aerobic work and calorie restriction, strength training decreases muscle wasting. So, in short, strength-train. It's important. I wouldn't strength-train for anymore that 20 to 30 minutes. You can get what you need in a short period of time. \n\nAfter the strength training, it's time to get on the bike, treadmill, stepper, track, whatever. Keep your workouts to 30 minutes and up in order to burn the calories. Train between 3 to 5 times per week. Keep your heart rate at 60 to 90% of heart rate max. \n\nDon't look at losing weight as some mysterious monster that you can't get the reins on. Look at it as nothing more than stored energy. That's what fat is?stored energy. If you had a tank full of energy and it kept filling up higher and higher, what would you do to keep your tank from growing too large from the excess energy? Well, burn some of the energy off. That's what you need to do to lose weight. Keep the "energy in" lower than the "energy out" and abracadabra, you're losing weight. \n\nNote: You need to change your routine every 2-3 weeks in order to get the best results. \n\nMonday \n\n\nLeg Press 2x12 \nChest Press 2x12 \nLat pull down 2x12 \nShoulder Press 2x12 \nDB Curl 2x12 \nTricep kickback 2x12 \nAerobic Work  30 or more minutes. \n\n Click Here For A Printable Log Of Monday! \n\nTuesday \n\n\nAerobic work 30 or more minutes of aerobic exercise.\nWednesday \n\n\nSame as Monday.\nThursday \n\n\nSame as Monday, or take a day of rest.\nFriday \n\n\nSame as Monday.\n\nThat is a great program but here is a DIET that you can use to go along with it.\n\nThe diet works as follows: eat two bowls of Special K cereal and a regular dinner meal and you will lose up to 2-3 pounds per week . This is a simple, decreased calorie diet. By following a regimen of decreased calorie consumption, any food specific diet will work. Special K is one of the healthier cereals out there and an excellent choice as a breakfast meal, but focusing on it in such a narrow manner is not sustainable in the long-term.

First off, with a serious iunjury like that, I suggest talking to a doctor about what exercises would be best fo you, and which ones to avoid.  Exercising with an injury can be difficult.  Start slow.  Alas we cannot spot reduce for weight loss.  What you can do is tone the problem areas with strentch training (lunges work wonders for the butt) and crunches for the abs.  I suggest watching what you eat to lose weight.  As far as exercise goes, walking is always an excellent low impact start, but as stated before, talk to your doctor first.  THey will be more than willing to help.

Not to sound mean, but you're not going to keep anything off that you might lose without being physically active. Ephedra did the trick, but there's a reason they took it off the market - increases your metabolism; increases heart rate and blood pressure to a potentially unsafe level for not being active. The same can be said about large amounts of caffiene, but I don't recommend that either. Amphetamines do the same thing, but I strongly advise against that for a lot of reasons including health risks and legality issues. If you really want so lose weight, reducing your caloric intake and exercising regularly is the only safe, effective way to go. It's a matter of whether you're really willing to sacrifice and work for the results.

Listen, there is no easy way to losing weight. Weight loss occurs when calorie output is less than calorie input. So in other words you burn more than you eat. If you were to do this without exercise, you would not be allowed to eat too many calories. \n\nYou really need activity to lose weight as it increases your metabolism and burns what you ate in the day. If you don't you will not have great shape. Many people that are think have high body fat % so they are still not healthy. You need to consider the fact that if you want to maintain a healthy weight exercise can assist in maintaining your weight once you reach your goal. \n\nMany people lose weight and then gain it back cause they stop exercising and healthy eating. The only way to maintain your weight is to be consistent and following a healthy eating and exercise plan for life.

Isolating parts of the body does not mean that is where you will lose the weight or tone. You need to do a total overhaul. \n\nIf you want to do this it is for life so you need to totally change your way of eating and exercising. This is not a diet rather than a healthy eating plan for life. So no more talking diet cause it means time limit. \n\nHere are the golden rules: \nInitially cut down to 1200 calories. \nExercise 6 times per week for 1 hours a day. Do three weight sessions and three cardio sessions. \nDon't eat carbs after 4pm, never eat carbs within 2 hours of exercise or within 1 hour of exercise. \nDrink 3 litres of water per day. You can have a green tea at the end of the day. \nLimit your fruit in take to 2 pieces per day. \nNever eat dinner after 6pm.\nAdopt of low GI eating plan this is sustainable for life!\nMake low fat dairy choices \n\nFollow this menu plan as a suggestion: \nBreakfast 7am - 1 cup hot water w lemon\n20 minutes later have a bowel of oats w water (no honey) OR\nfruit salad w low GI soy yogurt\nSnack 10am - pear or apple (both low GI)\nLunch 12.30pm - muligrain sandwich w 50g tuna & salad (no butter)\nSnack 3pm - low GI yogurt OR skim berry smoothie (no honey or banana) plenty of ice, 1/2 cup skim milk & 1/4 cup yogurt\nDinner 5.30pm - 120g grilled lean meat/fish/prawns/tofu patties (not fried) w spinach salad & mixed vegies (no whites, carbs) OR 3 egg white/soy omlette with ham, cheese and tomato\nSnack - 1 scoop of low cal low fat ice cream (if hungry)\n\nExercise is must be intense. Refer to www.bodybuilding.com for your weights routine. You can do a circuit class but this counts as one weights session. Never do weights two consecutive days have a cardio day in between. \n\nCardio needs to include running, boxing and spin. If your classes are less than 1 hour top it up with cardio before and after classes. You get the most benefits from exercise when your body is totally fatigued and this is when you see changes. \n\nTo maintain you can increase calories to 1500 and reduce exercise sessions to 3-4 times per week. If weight creeps up again due to holiday period etc.. go back to 1200 cal and 6 sessions again. \n\nGood luck it worked for me it can work for anyone.
