How do you lose weight? Any ideas???
The easiest explanation is very simple and obvious. Its calorie intake vs. calories burned. If you consistently burn more calories than you consume, you will lose weight. No matter what you eat, this is always the case. If you eat 1000 calories of pizza and fried chicken, but you burn 1500 in a day, you will lose weight. You just have to watch and be smart (read labels) what you eat. Anything pre-packaged, convenient, or tastes good, is probably bad for you / high in calories. Watch the sauces, don't drink soda. The easiest diet thing to do is to stay away from fast and fried food. This is why Atkins worked...no one could eat all the crap that's out there. A sure way to lose weight is to buy the body bug. www.myapex.com You buy a unit that measures how many calories you burn, and you type into their website what you eat, and it tells you how you are doing.
Do you loose weight when you poop?
You lose weight, but it's not permanent or anything.
Why do i lose weight when eat more?
Ok so I'd been having trouble with my weight being too low so a increased my calories (only to 2100) and I've lost more weight?? I mean is that even possible, I think I could understand maybe when I was younger like I'd be eating heaps for a week and would get on the scales to find I lost weight, it always shoched me? And btw, I do heaps of running but only the last 2 days I haven't done anything that's the most confusing thing. So why is it everytime I eat heaps I always lose weight (and it's not... well much junk food either) ? It's been like that all my life except when I was younger it was too much pop tarts and regular coke.. which I gave up b/c of cavities/bad teeth lol
If you eat nothing will you lose more weight than if you eat healthy food?
No. Your body will switch to "starvation mode", i.e. once it has exhausted your glycogen stores, it would switch to burning muscle mass. It leaves the fat for last. That's a neat trick that humans evolved to survive on the Savannas during lean times. Technically you will have lost "weight", but that weight will not only be fat, but muscle mass and water weight as well. It's the dumbest thing you could possibly do to try and lose fat, because it is also liable to slow your metabolism to a crawl. Once you inevitably give up on your short-sighted attempt at "weight-loss" and start eating again, your body will struggle to burn off the calories you consume and is likely to convert most of it to fat, so you'll end up heavier than before.Nice going.
I want to lose weight but I love eating. What should I do?
1- Eat More Oily FoodI’ve been to several restaurants with friends and acquaintances who are rather overweight. One common thread I’ve observed is that most of these people who are trying to live healthy are conscious of ordering something that is less oily.First hard truth: Eating less oily food has nothing to do with your weight loss..2- Never Run On TreadmillWhen I go to gym, I see that 80% of people running on treadmills are fat. They are thinking that if they do it for 30 minutes everyday, some day in the distant future they will be slim.Second hard truth is: No person in the history of this world has gotten slim by running on a treadmill..3- Eat 4–5 Times A DayFat people think that eating less, 1-2 times a day, will make them slim. It’s true that if you starve yourself you will lose weight. What you probably don’t know is that you primarily lose weight by reducing your muscles, not your stored fat.I eat between 2500 - 3000 calories a day on average. I stay between 10-12% body fat at about 75 kg.When you starve yourself and reduce weight, you are basically losing strength and stamina. You are getting weaker. Before you realise you will develop lower back pain and what not. Just don’t do it.Third hard truth is: To reduce stored fat, you eat A LOT – like 4-5 times a day. And you never miss breakfast..So How Do You Lose Weight By Eating A Lot?You change the composition of your food from being carb-rich to high in proteins and fats. You will never have to worry about eating a lot or counting your calories.
Can eating breakfast help you lose weight?
So, I wanna lose weight so I can have a completely flat belly by next summer when I see my baby, so I can surprise him. (Plus I want a flat tummy when i get my belly button peirced.) But if I eat cherrios every morning and exercise until summer will I lose more weight then I would if I just exercise and not eat breakfast?
Did you lose weight in Vietnam?
I lost over 20 lbs in less than three weeks when I traveled to Vietnam in late 2005. I lost 20 lbs again during my trip last year. I attribute my weight loss to difference in the foods I was eating and the lifestyle I was living in Vietnam. I believe I ate more while there, but a gallon of Vietnamese pho has less fat than a McDonald's cheeseburger. The typical house in Vietnam has several flights of stairs, and I could have done 1,000 stair steps a day by just roaming through the house. I think that I might be onto something here, and I have a multi-part question for you to answer: 1) If you've been to Vietnam, did you lose weight when you were there? 2) How much weight did you lose? 3) What do you think was the reason for the weight loss? 4) Do you think that Vietnam could enter the multi-billion dollar weight loss industry with proper management and marketing? Enquiring minds with fat bodies want to know!
