is anyone out there can give me a simple guide to lost my weight?

A simple guide? Okay, here are the basics, but you probably already know them:\n\n1. You MUST burn more caloies than you consume daily. \n\n2. Drink only water. Soda dehydrates you.\n\n3. Find a physical activity you enjoy & do it at least 4 days per weak for 45 minutes or more at a time. You must get your heart rate up and work up a sweat. (Martial arts class does it for me!)\n\n4. If you exercise before you eat breakfast in the morning, you will lose weight a little faster.\n\n5. Muscle burns more calories than fat, so lifting weights will help.\n\n6. Walk as much as you can in addition to your exercise.....park farther away from the door, take the stairs instead of the elevator, walk to the store if you live close enough, ect.....\n\n7. Stay away from all things fried, sugary, or carbonated.  Eat as many vegetables as you wish.

1. A safe level and effective level of weight loss that is about 1-2 pounds per week.. More than that could be unhealthy is is usually not lasting. Look to make lasting changes in your diet and lifestyle, then you will keep the weight off.  \n2. The only way to lose weight is to take in fewer calories that you burn. There is no secret to it. You can do this by dieting to lower your calorie intake, exercise to increase it, or a combination of both. Depending on your current activity level, even adding some walking into the schedule can help.\n3.  Muscle weighs more than fat but is more compact.  Adding muscle may make you look slimmer, and the muscle burns more calories at rest than fat so it can keep you slimmer.\n4. There are many effective diet programs that you can follow on your own or join. These programs do a few things: they can help educate you on proper nutrition; they help you control portions and calorie intake; and, they usually require you to keep a record of your eating behavior. Find one that is comfortable for you if you think it will help, or do it on your own.\n5. Writing down everything you eat over a few days can be very helpful in terms of identifying your problem areas.\n6 There are some helpul resources available from the US Government, including suggested diet and a calorie tracker that allows you to evaluate your food intake for calories and nutrients, and compare it to the calories that you burn through daily activities. I have some articles on my website as well. Links are shown below. \nGood luck!

Here are some tips:\n\n-Do moderate excercise everyday.\n-Try to avoid junk food\n-Find time to relax\n-Drink lots and lots of water, because this will wash out any toxins and fatty stuff that can accumalate and add weight\n-Do not oversleep; don't be slack and tired. Be as energetic as you can and this will help you lose weight and be positive about yourself\n-Smile as often as you can. Sure, it doesn't really help you lose weight; it just makes you look more nicer, and sometimes slimmer and prettier\n-Instead of 'dieting', eat as many fruits as you can till lunchtime, then eat veggies, bread and meat.\n-When you are seriously hungry, but it's not time for lunch or dinner, eat fruits. I know fruits can be repetitive and boring; but it can really help in cleaning your system, and because it contains high water content, it will reduce the amount of energy you eat, therefore less is converted to fat.

1. Start with a positive attitude.\n2. Research and access your body to see if you really need to lose weight or just tone up.\n3. Have a realistic goal. Aim for 1-2 lbs. per week.\n4. Set up a basic diet of fruits, veggies, lean meats and a little dairy. Drink lots of water. Decide on how many calorires you need in a day and try to stay within the max....but at least eat 1200 to 1400 a day.\n5 Set up an exercise program...walking is good. Do this daily or every other day.\n6. Add in some weight bearing exercises to help tone up your muscles.\n7. Only weigh yourself once a week or once a month. Don't get caught up in the numbers... \n8. Don't give up.\n\nBottom line: you have to burn more calories than you take in.

increase your self esteem... or\ndehydrate yourself and go to the bathroom a lot.\n\nyou said easiest.\n\nThe best way to lose weight is simply to elevate your heart rate at least 30 minutes a day. You dont even have to exercise for a long time. You dont have to job, jump, or do stairs. Just do anything that raises your heart rate pretty high for a few minutes, and your heart will continue to pump fast and burn calories. Instead of eating a few big meals a day, eat many small meals.\nMake realistic goals like 5 pounds a month and stick to a routine. Have confidence in yourself and dont obsess by looking in the mirror everyday. It will happen, just have patience :)\nI made a site to check BMI and calories burned per day. It's not all that great but I spent a lot of time adding quality links to the further links section.\nhttp://www.jimmyr.com/lose_weight.php

NO PAIN NO GAIN.  There is no easy way to lose weight.  \n\nTwo things:  1) Exercise\n             2) Decrease calories intake

Weight loss is not simple or easy for most people. If you understand this, and believe that it will actually take real effort to lose weight then there are things you can do. To get started you can read this article about successful weight loss:\nhttp://heightandweightchart.blogspot.com/2005/02/six-strategies-for-successful-weight.html\n\nThere are also several articles about weight loss myths and scams. Make sure you read those so you know what does not work. \n\nIn general, any kind of quick-fix diet that involves pills or a drastic change in what you eat and does not include exercise will almost always fail. The majority of people who do this gain all the weight back. They then fall into a trap of continually looking for the "miracle pill" that will "burn the fat while you sleep". There isn't such a pill. It takes common sense and hard work, real effort, to lose weight.

Be your own trainer and nutritionist, the basic rules to losing weight are no soda, no fast food, lots of chicken, fish, fresh (not canned that’s bad) fruits and vegies, whole wheat stuff, yogurt. Not so many cakes and donuts and cookies. Basic common sense for eating, you just need to enforce it. Get all the bad stuff out of the house right away, just toss it or give it away while your still motivated. No alcohol if that applies. Some juice but make sure its all natural, because the ones that aren't are loaded with sugar and a leading cause in diabetes in children and adults. Lots of water, 3-4 liters a day, not all at once, but spread out. Its really easy to down a liter or two while your watching tv or on the computer. Also drink some after you eat the bigger meals of the day, it helps your body pick out the nutrients in food when your food is more spread apart.  These rules may be hard to adapt to at first so start with cutting out the things you know you can live without.  Then work to there.  Remember these are  perfect eating habits, it can take you a while to work into it.  If you know you can’t live without your one treat a day, don’t fight it by trying to eat something else, just eat it and make sure that’s the only one you cheat on a day.  Otherwise you’ll get depressed and quit.  Another important point is getting the right amount of sleep every night.  You need 8-9 hours of sleep each night for your body to function correctly.  This is an important factor of losing weight.  Set up a routine for yourself and go to bed at about the same time each night.  \nAs for exercise, lots of cardio. Find something you like. If you have never exercised much before, start with walking 30 minutes a day at a brisk pace. Move on to different terrains that include hills and increase the time spent. After a week or two, try jogging the route. No matter what find an activity you enjoy. Walking to jogging is just an example, try hiking, rollerblading, biking. Once you get into a regular routine, if your not happy with the level of difficulty, try signing up with a gym. Spinning, pilates or kickboxing classes are great. It will also introduce you to working with weights. Talk to a trainer for instruction before using any weights. A cheap investment is a balance ball, it works you stomach while your just sitting on it, like at your computer and its great for posture. There are hundreds of exercises you can use it for for your entire body. I can give you some ideas if you want, just email me.

What I've done is cut out soda and junk food.  I'm also doing an excercise program called Turbo Jam program and I LOVE it!  It's a combination of cardio, kickboxing, and dance plus it's got some modern day music to exercise to.  \nThe hardest part about losing weight is getting started.  Best of luck to you! :)

i dont know but i need to lose 200lbs

Well...I don't mean to be the obvious one of the group...nor the smart...butt...but I think the only way for one to lose weight is to burn more calories then one consumes?? Wouldn't you agree? :o)\n\nFirst thing to do is determine (like the other individual said) is whether you want to lose weight or look more toned. After that...find out your body type. Are you a pear (bottom heavy), hourglass, apple (all around), etc... Once you find out your body type you will be able to find the exercises that will most help you lost weight and look more toned at the same time. This website can help you find out what body type you are and what exercises help most...\n\nwww.ivillage.com\n\nNext thing to do is find out how many empty calories you intake a day into your body. By empty calories I mean, junk food, candy, and ESPECIALLY pop!! One can of coke has 180 calories!! Twenty cans of coke equal a gain of 1 pound!! So if you determine what calories you take in that are not essential to the overall health of your body you can see how many calories you take it that are adding to weight gain. \n\nYou only need to lose 3500 calories to drop one pound. That’s a loss of 500 calories a day to lose one pound a week. So if you drink two cokes a day, or a candy bar and chips...scrap it out of your diet. Then add in an exercise that will burn 200 calories, and there you go! You’re on your way already. \n\nAnother great thing to remember and investigate is the type of foods you eat. Chicken and fish are some of the best foods to incorporate into your diet if you are on a weight loss plan. Did you know that ground beef has 36% fat in it? That’s huge!! The best way to find out the fat and calorie content of food is to just search out the Internet. Here’s a great website to start you out.\n\nhttp://www.caloriecountercharts.com/chart1a.htm\n\nIf you do decide to exercise, I suggest doing it in the morning, this way you have kick-started your metabolism and it will burn more and be higher throughout the entire day so you can burn more calories then if you were to work out at night. \n\nSo in short, if you want to lose weight you have to incorporate a variety of things together. Exercise, eating the right foods, and voiding the empty calories, are great beginners. \n\nHere’s a hint though...don't completely void out of the empty calories out of your diet, you have to cheat once in a while...or one day...when you get home from clubbing, you'll order a pizza and eat the entire thing or buy an entire box of chocolate bars and eat them all in one day...not good!!\n\nNow, although I agree that diets do not work, and most people tend to gain back all the weight if not more when they go off the diet. If you incorporate the diet into your daily life and life the diet, then its not really a diet...its a lifestyle! Never call it a diet...just a change of lifestyle!!!\n\n Another thing to consider when eating is to eat slowly. It takes the stomach about 20 minutes to signal the brain when it is full. Take smaller bites, converse while you eat, and chew more slowly and thoroughly. This will help with overeating and consuming more calories then your body needs. \n\nHope this helps.

Same here... I've been losing weight by making some easy changes.\n\n• Don't skip meals (this one is important)\n• Drink lots of water\n• Don't eat too late (basically, don't snack before bedtime)\n• Find good ways to deal with a sweet tooth- I've learned to drink a diet A&W root beer to help with mine!\n• Exercise- this one is pretty obvious. Just fit it in whenever/wherever you can, because every bit counts.\n\nAlso, because your weight gain has occurred relative to a change in your life (going overseas) look at what the actual culprit is. What has changed in your diet/nutrition/lifestyle since you have been there? \n\nGood luck.

Hi, I am sure these steps will help!!! Proper diet and exercise can aid in weight loss, as well as keep you healthy. We know you've heard that before - the challenge is to follow through. Others have lost weight by following these simple guidelines, and so can you.\nInstructions \nSTEP 1: Set small, realistic goals. If you have a lot of weight to lose, try for 5 pounds, relax a bit and then go for 5 more. STEP 2: Start a regular exercise program and stick with it. Don't be afraid of those sweat suits and Lycra pants! STEP 3: Sneak in extra exercise in addition to your regular program. Park at the far end of the parking lot and walk; take the stairs instead of the elevator. STEP 4: Eat low-fat, high-fiber foods such as salads and vegetable pastas. STEP 5: Choose foods that you like. Learn to prepare healthful, low-calorie foods that taste good by checking healthy cook books for new recipes. Eating well doesn't have to mean eating dull. STEP 6: Eat smaller, more frequent meals; this way, your body starts to increase its metabolism so that calories are burned faster. Also, mini-meals can prevent overeating. STEP 7: Plan ahead. Keep the fridge stocked with healthful food and you'll be less likely to run out for high-calorie, high-fat junk food. STEP 8: Keep a food diary. This will help you pinpoint where you can improve your diet. STEP 9: Once you discover your favorite snack time, be sure to have plenty of healthful options available. Tips & Warnings \nLose weight with a friend, or join a support group. \nAvoid those vending machines by carrying around your own healthful foods and leaving pocket change at home. \nTry oatmeal instead of cornflakes for breakfast - eating oatmeal can help reduce cholesterol levels, and its high fiber content even fills you up for longer. \nChoose an exercise program that you enjoy, and don't shun the unconventional. For instance, did you know that regular vigorous dancing is exercise too? \nLose weight gradually - you are more apt to keep it off. A safe amount is 1 to 1 1/2 pounds per week. \nConsult a doctor to find an exercise program that is best for you. \nCrash diets can help you lose weight quickly, but most people gain the weight back. Some of these diets are also unhealthy and dangerous. If you choose to go with a specific diet plan, choose one that is medically credible. \nIf you have any questions or concerns, contact a physician or other health care professional before engaging in any activity related to health and diet. This information is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice or treatment.
