Can I lose 15 pounds in a month?
A DIET IS WHAT YOU EAT....there for we are all on a diet.... THINK LIFESTYLE CHANGE You got the change the way you think and feel about food TRY THIS, and stick to it. The first 3-4 weeks are the hardest until your body adjusts to the change. Results will be in about the same time Fruits and Veggies Eat more plants and keep away from stuff that was made in plants. Don't eat anything that comes in a can, box or package.... .....THEY HAVE ADDITIVES IN THEM THAT MAKE YOU ADDICTED TO THE FOOD..... If man made it, don't eat it NO white BREAD or SUGAR NO FRIED FOOD... Stay away from FAST FOOD Walk your dog, or walk a friends dog Don't think of it as a diet, but think of it as a lifestyle change I have lost 25.5 pounds in 2 months, drink lots of water. I usually eat a meal of what ever I want once a week....controlled portion....this really works......... Write down every thing you eat Take a multi vitamin at night

Just begin! Your coach will assess your condition and guide you to those exercises that will make you stronger and more fit as part of your training. But strength and fitness is secondary to learning the tactics, strategy and mechanics of boxing. So as you learn how to box you will also lose weight and gain strength.Start now… don’t wait…. it’ll never happen unless you start.
How long should it take to safely lose 30 pounds? What are some tips for doing so?
Best to provide you with some basics on weight loss first:As I’m sure you already know, if you consume less calories (from your food and drink) than your body needs, your body will burn up fat to try and make up the difference - it requires energy for daily maintenance. Slowly, you’ll lose weight.One pound of body fat is equal to approx 3,500 calories, ok.The recomended safe rate of weight loss is to aim to lose 1 to 2 pounds per week.After doing some quick maths, this means you need to eat at least 500 calories less per day than you do now.What’s the catch?If your dietary nutrition is out of the window, i.e. awful - then either you need to burn off way more than 500 calories per day to kick start your weight loss, or you need to make some serious changes to what you eat!If you head over to any online Calorie Calculator, or use an app, these can usually tell you a couple of important things (based on your current activity levels):Your BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate)Your BMR is the number of calories required by your body to keep functioning at rest.The number of calories you’ll need to burn in order to safely lose 1 or 2 pounds per week.Remember though, these are just estimates which give you a defined goal to work towards.How long will it take?Well, let’s say you work on losing no more than 2 pound per week, it will take you approx 15 weeks (3–4 months) to lose 30 pounds of weight. This is assuming you have a healthy diet and some exercise in place!What are some good tips for losing 30 pounds of weight?Review your dietary nutrition!Add some regular exercise to your weekly regimeIf your current diet (i.e. what you eat & drink) is pants, then first and foremost, take a good look at what you are eating!Swap out 1 unhealthy choice per week with a healthy choice - Repeat!Increase your intake of Fruit & VegHydrate well by drinking plenty of waterIncrease the amount of protein & healthy fats you eat (Helps keep you feeling fuller)Reduce/cut-out all white carbs - such as sweets, cakes etcReduce beige carbs - such as white bread, pasta, rice, potatoes etcEat more smaller meals at regular intervals throught the dayAdd some exercise into your weekly regime!Try to get at least 30 minutes of exercise per dayTake the stairs, walk/cycle to workExercise before, during or after work - as long as you do somethingGo for a speed walk at lunchtimeJoin a sports club - play tennis, go swimmingBuy yourself a fitness watch to keep tabs!Hope this helps :-)
How long will it take me to lose 15-20 pounds with running and abdominal excersises?
I’ll stop you right there. Abdominal exercises do literally nothing for losing weight. As in, you’d be better spending that time walking, paying with your dog, grocery shopping. More or less anything.Losing weight is about burning calories stored as fat on the body. Weight lifting and cardio will do this at different rates for different people. However specific fat loss in an area is impossible. You burn 2kg of fat and it’s coming off everything; legs, arms, back, bum, stomach and chest.Exercising the stomach region is honestly the last thing on the list; it’s for increasing your muscle definition there once you have gotten rid of enough fat.If you want to lose weight, the common saying is it’s 80% diet, 20% exercise.Are you actually eating right? How many calories? How many calories from fatty food and junk food? How many calories from drinks (everyone forgets that).A lot of info on the internet claims losses of about 2lb a month are the standard. You’ll lose more in the first few months, and less each month after unless you up the exercise/drop the calories to counteract this effect.Don’t just run, your body will get used to the mechanics of it and you will become more efficient; good for a runner, bad for someone aiming to lose weight. Mix it up; run, swim, lift weights, cycle.A final note; don’t worry about excess muscle from lifting weights. Even as a man with significantly more testosterone building muscle isn’t as easy as you’d think. And lifting weights is an often overlooked and very effective way to lose weight.
How can I fast lose weight/ get toned in 1 month?
If you want a simple answer then the key is in restricting your carbohydrates and creating a deficit in your daily calorie intake versus expenditure. The only carbs that you should eat are whole grain foods and vegetables and none in the evening. but.......and there is a big but................... Losing that much weight so quickly is not only dangerous but it is also counter productive in the long run. As soon as you start eating carbs again your metabolism will have slowed down so much during your fasting period that you will blow up. Unless you are 100% certain you can avoid carbs forever then complete restriction of carbs is NOT recommended. Many no carb diets will see people lose 10lbs or so in the first few weeks but don't be fooled thinking this is fat...it isn't! It's most water weight. Your body stores 3oz of water for every gram of carbs it consumes. The best you can do to facilitate fat loss, is intense brief exercise such as sprinting or resistance training....doing hours of cardio is hopeless no matter what you've read....and having a well balanced and healthy diet. Lots of protein and good healthy carbs such as salad, whole grain foods and green vegetables. Drinking as much water as you can is also imperative. When resistance training focus on using heavy weights but under complete control. Eliminate momentum by taken four seconds to both raise and lower your weight. Only do one to two sets per body part and focus of compound movements such as squats and chest presses. Take your sets to failure and this will trigger your body to produce and release more growth hormone. Growth hormone is a key component of fat loss. And don't worry! you won't get all muscular! And for all those people here talking about "toning" rather than building muscle...ignore it. There is no such thing as "toning" you can only build muscle and burn fat...two things..."toning" muscle is a made up fallacy. Doing light weights and lots of reps is completely pointless. It's very hard to build muscle especially for a woman so do not be afraid of the heavy weights....it is the only thing that will force your body to change the way you want it to. Good luck.
