    Good luck.

    Lose weight fast

    Can you swim?? It’s a really good overall workout. However….5′4 and 125 doesn’t sound out of the ordinary.

    ok, follow these rules, and you will lose 40 pounds in a year!
    1.between each bite, put down your fork and take a sip of water.(makes you eat slower which makes you eat 15% less during each meal)
    2. if your still hungry after a meal, wait 20 minutes and you probably wont be, (if you are, then you can have a little more, you dont wanna starve yourself!!)
    3.when you want soda or juice, drink water (flavor water iis good too!)
    5. NO eating junkfood, NO eating after 7:30pm, NO starving yourself
    4. run, walk, jog, bike, exercise for 30 minutes a day. (make sure to stretch before exercising!)
    5. eat healthy (frozen veggies are as good as organic ones, and they are easy to prepare and cheap!)
    6.get a good night’s sleep every night
    if you have questions or concerns you can email me. just go to my profile page and email me a message. good luck!!

    Exercise and Weight Loss

    The most important regiment you can follow is a healthy diet. Eat a good breakfast in the morning, as this will start your day properly. You should be set for several hours without feeling hungry or have cravings.
    Don’t forget that you need the good carbs for energy.
    Stay away from greasy junk food and sodas.
    Instead pig out on fresh fruit and veggies. Your skin, nails and hair will show it.

    Exercise moderately every day.
    Good luck

    Fastest Way to Lose Weight

    u shouldnt diet…diets dont work and u have 2 make a life style change and never starve urself or go below 1500 calories(some go to 1200 calories)…just eat healthy!!!!!!

    -fruits
    -vegies
    -whole grain/wheat breads/pasta/brown rice/oatmeal
    -low fat dairy(2% milk, yogurt, low fat ice cream or frozen yogurt, low fat cheese)
    -lean protein/meats like chicken, turkey, egg whites)
    -nuts/seeds…peanut butter is VERY healthy if u eat 2 tablespoons and stay within that limit
    -beans

    -baked lays chips
    -cheesesticks
    -100 calorie packs
    -breyers double churned(and no added sugar) ice cream
    -chocolate peanut butter ricecakes
    -frozen fruit with fat free cool whip
    -quaker chewy granola bars
    -fruit pops
    -lean pockets
    -chocolate milk
    -graham crackers
    -vegies and dip
    -pretzels and fat free cream cheese

    low carb diets dont work…going low carb or low fat is a myth…its the overall calories u consume! so count the calories! carb, sugar, and fat junkies are full of crap…u need to watch overall calories(eat atleast 1400-1500) different fruits and vegies are low or high carb…but they are the good carbs! carbs give u energy and keep ur body from eating away ur muscle. healthy carbs THAT U NEED are fruits, vegies, and whole wheat breads/pastas/oatmeal/brown rice.

    people who lose on low carb are only losing cuz they are restricting calories(u should also never feel hungry either when trying to lose weight)

    the only carbs u need to cut are the bad carbs found in white items and dessert items or items high in added sugar

    Fastest Way to Lose Weight

    The best way to tackle weight loss is to go for the combo of exercise and healthy diet.

    Doing one without the other is a ‘no, no” thing for anyone who wants to lose weight – you only get half the result…….

    To answer your question:

    What should you eat?

    Well, like I said, a healthy diet.

    You can find all about eating the right kind of healthy food here to lose weight:

    How often should you work out?

    Go for cardio exercise (running, walking, jogging, biking…..or any exercise that works on your heart to crank up the heart rate and to kickstart your metabolism into higher gear, to burn off fat), 3-4 times per week, for at least 30 mins per session.

    What are good cardio exercises

    All cardio exercises are “good” as long as you benefit – strong, healthy heart, high metabolism, stress relief, disease prevention….

    The definition of “good” boils down to what exercise you love/like to do and enjoy while doing it……

    So, if you love running and enjoy it, then go run…..

    If you love biking, by all means bike then…..

    The rationale is simple: you love and enjoy the exercise; hence you won’t feel dreadful while doing it and you stayput long in the program, to see results…..

    This article on cardio explains it all:
