If i run 5 miles a day, 6 times a week, for a month how much weight will i lose?
First of all, congratulations for taking the initiative and actually achieving your weight loss through hard work and natural efforts instead of the harmful drugs that are advertised. Second, You definitely have to keep track of your calorie/fat intake and make sure to burn more calories then you consume. Third, do weight training to build muscle. Muscle increases your metabolic rate, thereby burning more calories even when at rest/not necessarily exercising. Fourth, as mentioned previously higher metabolism means faster/more efficient calorie burning. Some other ways to raise your metabolism , if even for a short while, is taking cold showers/drinking really cold beverages, using a sauna regularly, and drinking green tea. Hot and cold works the same way - the body is forced to work harder to regulate your body temperature so you burn more calories. Fifth, consume carbohydrates such as breads/pasta when you will be active since unused carbs are more likely to be stored as fat. Try to eat lean meat or a lot of protein to feed the muscles that you are strengthening. Good luck.
If I run 2 miles a day will I lose weight?
Okay, so I'm 5'2 and 130 pounds. I want to lose weight! Meaning, I want to build up on my cardio and eat less... Eventually becoming only 110 pounds. I've been running about two miles a week, but I amped up to 2 miles yesterday and it was a breeze. I figure if I run 2 miles everyday and watch my calorie intake that I'll loose some chub. I have a little stomach fat, my boobs are a big factor for my weight, and my thighs could use a lot of toning. Ever since I've been watching my calorie intake, it seems like I've been losing weight but every time I step onto the tread mill, I GAIN weight! I know it's probably just muscle, but I'm getting frustrated and I just want to feel comfortable with my body. Any exercise tips, diet recommendations, or exercise routines I could follow to lose 10-15 pounds in 3-4 months? Is that goal unrealistic or not? Please give me some tips. Thanks guys. :-)

So if I run 3 miles a day for three months, how much weight will I lose? I know there will be some days I will skip, being sick or really tired or injured, but approximately how much weight would come off?
How much weight will I lose if walk 6-9 miles a day for a month?
Walking 6 miles a day is an ambitious feat, and while weight loss may be your goal, you want to make sure your body is properly fueled so you can get those miles in at a strong pace. Carbs -- fruit, grains and veggies -- are the fuel your muscles need to power your body as you walk. Eat your carbs one to three hours before walking to get the energy you need without upsetting your stomach. Good carb-rich ideas include a peanut butter and banana sandwich, yogurt and strawberries or whole-grain crackers and cheese. Also be sure to drink 16 ounces of water before your walk -- especially if it's hot and you're walking outside -- and continue to drink as you exercise.Refuel after your long walk with a snack consisting of carbs and protein -- a glass of low-fat chocolate milk or turkey and an apple -- within 30 minutes of finishing. During those 30 minutes after any workout, your body needs food to replenish energy stores and repair and build muscle. Also, continue to re hydrate with another cup of water.Consult a registered dietitian to help design an individualized healthy meal plan to go with your walking regimen.
How much weight would I lose if I run 10 miles every day for 2 months?
Others have hinted at the answer, but I mostly closely echo Nico's response.The real question isn't how much you'll lose in 2 months, it should be about sustainability. Running 10 miles everyday for 2 months is not sustainable and at the end of those 2 months, your adrenals will be so wiped out, you'll gain all the weight you're trying to lose and more.5'8" and 150 is about ideal for male. For ladies, that may explain the weight need. Running that many miles for that long will shed weight - but it will shed muscle as well. You'll become skinny fat and then shake your fist that you ever started running. If you are serious about the weight loss and it's done in a healthy approach, combine your efforts with nutrition AND exercise. Exercise is only 20% of the equation, truth be told.Assuming you allow 8 weeks for your weight loss, you can reasonably lose 1-2 pounds per week in a safe manner without losing too much muscle. But instead of just turning to running, do some weight lifting. Look up videos about high intensity interval training.HIIT is known to increase your fat metabolism even after you stop exercising. As for your weight loss, you can dramatically lose 5-10 lbs. just in shifting what you are eating. Avoid processed foods, fast foods, carbohydrates as much as you can (less than 50 grams a day) and drink water vs. soda. Not even diet soda as sweeteners can cause an insulin response.Long story short - choose a method that is more sustainable for you and your body. Don't look at your life ending in 2 months. Set it up for success with an approach that you can do from now until you're in your 80's.Best of luck!
If i run 2 miles 3-4 times a week, how long before i lose weight?
Weight loss works one way only. To take in less calories than you burn in a day. A 150- lb woman needs 1700 calories per day to run her organs. If she were to do NO exercise and eat exactly 1700 calories, she would maintain. If she were to do some exercise and burn 350 calories per day, it would take her 10 days to lose 1 pound. (3500 calories = 1 lb.) If she were to also drop her daily intake to 1350 calories, she would lose that pound in 5 days. The type of exercise you do has an impact on your body too. If you were to do strength training, you would tone muscles, becoming more "cut" and if you used heavier weights, you would start to bulk up. If you were to do aerobics, cardio-vascular exercise, this is good for flushing fat out without a specific target area. Running is scary becuase it's easy to over- do it. You should exercise a rate where you can speak a few sentences or sing a few lines, in between breaths. If you're so winded you can't squeak a sentence out, you're overdoing it and BURNING MUSCLE. I'm sure you would hate to become weaker through your running, so just be careful of that.
How much weight can I lose from walking 2 miles 5 days a week for a month?
Walking 2 miles a week may help you lose some weight in the beginning.Calories burnt by walking - 5 x 30 x 5 = 750 calories. This will help lose 400 grams in a month.However the following walking for weight lose could be better optionWalking to Lose WeightWalking burns 5 calories per minute.There are 1440 minutes in 24 hours.Average calorie consumption is 2500 for a person looking to lose weight.Calories are produced during cellular metabolic process. By exercising or increasing the burning of calories we cannot increase the production of calories during cellular metabolic process substantially. We can at best expect small changes.Calories are used by vital organs and vital processes of the body AND for physical exercises and movements.So if we start spending too much calories all of sudden on exercises there will be shortfall of calories in the body. This will be made good by restricting the calories required by vital organs.So if you keep running for hours we may die in few seconds. But there are defence mechanisms in the body which ensure that we do not run that long which can kill us.Walking for 5 minutes every hour (Around 10 times in a day) will burn 5x5x10 = 250 calories in a day.Resting Metabolic Rate was 2500/1440 x 50 = 87 calories.Net Calorie loss is 250 - 87 = 163.This is less than 7% of average calories that are consumed by a person looking to lose weight. This extra burden can be shared by increase in cellular metabolic rate within few days.How do a person feels by walking for such a short period of time.More alert, full of energy etc. This is indicative of increase in Resting Metabolic Rate. That would mean there will be extra calorie burning without an exercise, if that extra burden can be shared by cellular metabolism.So if a person keeps walking he is quite likely to increase his Resting Metabolic Rate.But if a person walks for 1 or 2 hours at a time, the extra calorie burning will be 60 x 5 or 10 = 300 or 600 calories. That will be difficult to shift this extra burden on cellular metabolism. So the body will save some calories meant for vital organs. That will cause deterioration of vital organs.Walking 2 to 5 minutes every hours means sure weight loss. The chances of regaining this lost weight will also be minimum because there is increasing in Resting Metabolic Rate. So even if you stop walking you will not gain any weight.
