Can I lose 30 pounds in one month?
Congratulations on your resolve to lose weight. I know personally, what it is like to lose weight. It is a time consuming experience which requires persistence and diligence. I alone lost 50 pounds from last October till now so I think I could help you answer your question. I did a ton of research on how to most effectively lose weight when I was on my big weight loss kick, and basically, what you are doing is NOT the most effective way to lose weight... seriously. There is also NO possible way to spot reduce, or to lose fat in a specific area of your body. All you can do is eat healthier and exercise. These are my five tips to a better looking, healthier you: 1. Drink half your weight in ounces of water, per day. 2. Get your daily source of calcium. 3. Eat whole/fresh foods, staying around 2,000 calories a day. Generally, however, when you eat whole/fresh foods you don't need to worry about calorie counting. 4. Exercise 30-40 min. of intense cardio 4-5 days a week (Reading is a life saver when you are on a machine). 5. Weightlifting and strength training 30min - 1 hour 4-5 days a week (Create multiple music playlists to listen to). Because you are limiting your caloric intake so severely (only 500 a day!?), you are more than likely putting your body in starvation mode, which will cause it to store everything you consume as fat. Sure, you will lose weight, but it won't be fat, it will be bone, muscle, and fat. However, because you want to lose it in one month, I have one final suggestion: That is the Atkins diet. With the Atkins diet you are not limiting how much you eat, but what you eat. You cannot eat any carbs, but can eat as much protein and fat as you want. What this does is put your body in a state of "Ketosis," when your body is basically burning just your body fat and nothing else to keep you energized. On this diet you could lose up to 10 pounds a week. However, when you are done losing the weight, make sure you SLOWLY introduce carbs back into your diet, and start an exercise routine as well or you will gain it all back in no time. I didn't go on the atkins diet because it was a little to difficult for me to follow, but it works none the less. Happy weight loss!!

Need to lose 30 pounds in 3 months?
You're not eating enough and your body is storing fat. You have to start the fire in the morning (which you're doing) and keep it burning all day. Right now your throwing some wood on and letting it smolder until the afternoon... Try to eat every 2-3 hours. A yogurt, some almonds, fruit, cottage cheese, etc. At dinner time have some protein - fish, chicken and some veggies. Don't eat before bed and remember to drink lots of water. For exercise take the stairs when possible, if you catch the bus walk to the next stop past yours to catch it, put some music on your iPod and take a walk before bed. It's really not that hard, it just takes discipline. Get a little book and set some goals. Track your progress. Make it like a game. Hope that helps.
Can I lose 30 pounds in 2 months? I am a nearly 50 pounds overweight woman.
Hi, great to here you want to lose weight! Before you start please remember this image below.But firstly check this website: Tip 4 Fitness | Home they have good advices for you.So here are six simple weight loss tips you can try today.Number 1: STOP drinking beer (or any alcohol), drinking one single beer is equivalent to 2 slices of bread.Number 2: Allow yourself a cheat meal once a week. I know you might think why should I do that? It will do the opposite of losing weight! Well, yes that’s true, but remember you are not a ROBOT. Having a cheat meal once a week will keep you motivated and therefore you won’t think losing weight is too hard and finish by quitting everything.Number 3: Don’t eat the same food every day. Many people eat chicken and rice all the time because there is a low percentage of fat. But after a week or two, you will get bored. Go on some cooking website and try simple and healthy recipes.Number 4: Go to the supermarket after eating. I know it’s weird, but its effective. Once you are full your body won’t desire any more calories and therefore you won’t buy any junk food.Number 5: Buy smaller plates. This again, is another wired trick, but there are over 50 studies to support my tip. Having smaller plates will reduce the quantity of food you can put on it and your brain will think its full.Number 6: If you are still hungry after your meal, eat either bananas or apples. These two fruits will help you full your stomach with a very low calorie count. And if you are still hungry after that drink water or green tea.Source: tip4fitness.com
Is it possible to lose 65 pounds in 2 months?
It TECHNICALLY is possible and i hate to dash your spirits but I'd say 65lbs in 4-5monthes would be a much more obtainable goal, though still challenging. You have to be careful because once you get to your goal weight and if you try eating "normally" again all the weight will pile back on :( so here's my advice. For the next 2 weeks i want you to go on a 15 min walk everyday. Try your best to cut out as much junk food as possible. 3 days a week do 15 min of cardio (jump rope, jogg, jumping jacks, etc) Now those 2 weeks ^^^ are kinda the "trial" weeks to get your body use to eating better and a little exercise :) But now it's time to kick it up a notch! A 30 min walk every day. 3 days a week 20-25 min of cardio. 2 days a week do toning (lunges, crunches, pushups, sqats) So you have 2 days off a week, but you still need to go on your walk these days.It is VITAL that you take out junkfood! I suggest 5 small MEALS not snacks a day. About 250 cal max per meal. They need to be packed with protein and fiber to give you energy to workout :) Water is your new best friend, got it? Good. Soda contains ingredients that actually can bloat your stomache without you realizing it. When the walk becomes to easy turn it into a jog :) When the toning gets easier add more Cardio is always going to be hard And the eating it going to be near impossible :( But I have faith in you and everybody who want to lose weight =) It will be physically,mentally, emotionally exhausting but you will feel healthier, happier, and more confident! And nobody said it would be easy :/ It's tough and it controls every aspect of your life but its time to make a change and im proud of you for wanting to. Good luck
How can a teenager lose 30 pounds in 3-4 months?
Oh I'm sorry you aren't seeing any results. I like the idea of talking to your doctor that might help a lot. But I think you should exercise more. I run 30 minutes a day... do 120 bicycle crunches, 120 sit-ups and 50 leg lifts. That lost a lot of weight for me but I also play sports 3-5 times a week. I think sports are one of the funnest ways to loose weight and it's more of a commitment so you can't just give up you also get to know a lot of new people. But if team sports aren't your thing, you could join a gym and sign up for yoga or spin classes and try something new. I know my friend lost a lot of weight with Zumba classes. You could subscribe to a fitness magazine or something. It helped me to surround myself with 'thinspiration' and remind me constantly of my goals. It made me work harder and see more results. Me and my friends started a Tumblr to 'thinspire' us... check it out. Not for publicity but it helped to see what I could look like in a matter of weeks. www.sexybitchesclub.tumblr.com Hope this helped... And DON'T GIVE UP!!! <3 xxxx You can do this :-) xxx
