Walking.  If you are overweight, eat a diet low in fat and carbohydrates in order to lose the fat.  Walk to exercise the muscles in your legs.  This will also be great for your heart. :)

The best way to slim down is by using the activity that gets you moving. All of those activities (dance/aerobics/sports) will get your body moving.\n\nYou just need to be:\n\n - Working hard enough for your body efficiently use fat as a source of fuel\n\n - Interested enough in the activity to do it on a regular basis\n\n - Safe - it needs to be something that you can keep doing over time.  Injuries can really set you back.\n\nOne way to guage which exercise will work best for you is to use a Heart Rate Monitor.  The monitor will tell you how hard you are working, and for how long. \n\nTo learn more, you can check out the Polar website. Polar is one of leading manufacturers of HRMs.\n\n http://www.polarusa.com/

As with most fad diets, most (if not all) of the initial weight loss is fluid.\n\nYou've not mentioned any exercise. The body is, unfortunately preprogrammed to conserve energy where it's not needed - in the form of fat. Where caloric intake goes down to below a certain level, the body goes into starvation state and your metabolic rate drops down in an effort to save as much energy as it can. The net result is that you'll feel lethargic and any weight loss in the form of fat reduction will be minimal, if at all.\n\nIn the worst case, the body will start shedding lean mass (ie: muscle mass) in an effort to reduce it's caloric overhead (ie: the amount of calories the body needs to stay alive). Pound for pound, muscles need a lot of energy to upkeep, so from that point of view it makes sense.\n\nThis is where exercise comes in. Create the need for the energy by expending it. Aerobic exercises raise the metabolic rate well beyond the completion of the exercise itself. A higher metabolic rate, you'll be more efficient at using the energy you put into your body and even start to use up fat reserves.\n\nTo stave off muscle atrophy, a little strength training is good. We're not talking about Cory Everson or Arnold Schwarzenneger type of strength training here - medium/high repetitions using light resistance is best in most cases (unless you really want to bulk up). \n\nDo it right and you'll have no need for fad diets.

There are two questions here- a toning and a weight loss question.  Unfortunately, there isn't any way to target weight loss in any one area of the body... and the best way to lose weight is by eating healthy and doing regular cardiovascular exercise.  \n\nAs for toning- there are a few really good ways.  The first is riding a bicycle... serious bicyclists have buns of steel.  The other is climbing stairs... lots and lots of stairs.  Both will give you a really good gluteal workout and will make you solid!

It depends on what you are looking for. Cardio - walking, running aerobic tapes.  Strength - bodyweight exercises such as push ups, lunges, chair dips can help.  Flexibility - yoga/pilates tapes are great.

What kind of exercises are you doing? --  what are you eating?\n\nSome exercises are better for weight loss than others, some exercises are good to tune the heart and circulatory system, but do not do much for weight loss.  Check if the exercises you are doing are consistent with your goal.\n\nIt may not be the volume of food that you are eating, but how many calories, how much fat, etc. in what you are eating?  You could be eating less in volume, but taking in more sugars and fats.  Check if your diet is consistent with your goal.

The quickest way isn't always the best way or the right way for you. Here are 3 different approaches that work:\n\n1) The quickest by far is surgery, of course. Liposuction is fast and works wonders- but actual stomach reductions (stapling, bypass etc) have not only been proven effective for weightloss but also in reducing the chances you'll develop adult onset diabetes.\n\n2) Next fastest is to eat a diet of 80% natural fats and 20% protein, in 5 small portions, with a target of 1000 calories a day. This is like eating a 2 oz bag of macadamia nuts, or 2 oz of egg salad or tuna salad as a complete meal, every meal. It works- and for any significant amount of weight it's better than starvation. More importantly the high fat content of the diet ensures that your body continues to produce the hormones you need to retain muscle tissue- so you lose fat pounds and not muscle pounds.\n\n3) Probably the best long term solution to lose weight and improve your health is to follow a light excercise routine several times per week, and to eat a diet that is high in fiber and has a low glycemic index (that is- eat foods that are low in processed sugar and grains, preferring when you eat carbohydrates to try whole grains and natural sugars).

The best and most effective way to lose weight is to cut back on your portions and watch you starches, sugars and fats and, mostly, exercise to burn those excess calories.  If you will notice, ALL diet pills, formulas, etc. say for you to eat smaller portions and to exercise along with taking the pills, formula, etc.  If that is what it takes, then why buy the stuff?  Just watch what you eat and exercise, exercise, exercise.

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... :))

Eat right and exercise. Alot of cardio if you want to lose water weight or excess flab...ex: running, yoga, pilates. And then after you've lost the weight you want then get firm, built muscle, get toned...ex: kick boxing, yoga, weights.

a good weightloss diet allows you to loose no more then 1-2 pounds per week.You need to loose slowly so that you do not lower your metabolic rate.\n\nEmphasize lots of vegetables,fruits,and legumes,small amounts of lean protein,and some nuts and seeds.Use the whole grains,instead of white rice,use brown,do not use anything made from white or milled grains.\n\ndrink plenty of water,and learn the portions and calories in the foods you eat,use olive oil,flax oil and monounsaturated fats instead of corn oil,and other damaging hydrogenated fats. \nStay away from sugar,proccessed foods and other junk.\n\nThis combined with exercise will start you on the right path,research and read books on fitness and diet,by checking them out from the library and educate yourself,that is a very important thing... GOOD LUCK! \n\nAppropriate exercise techniques for thighs and hips can be found in many good exercise books which will show u the proper form for doing things like squats and lunges.Educating yourself is the best method.

There is no such thing as spot-reduction when it comes to losing weight.  It is a myth, and don't believe anyone telling you otherwise.  If you are going to lose weight on your legs, you will lose it everywhere else also.  That said, running is probably the best exercise because along with losing weight you will be building the muscles in your legs and core (lower abs and back) which will give you a healthier, and slimmer, appearance.

Activities that involve moving the whole body as one unit are the best and most calorie burning. Activities such as power walking especially uphill, sprint work, swimming, road biking especially up hill.\n\nStationary bikes and treadmills are good but I personally consider them a class B for what you are wanting. \n\nGood luck \n\nKarl\nsfhsnz@yahoo.com
