Accepted Answer

Not safe!: You don't need a "diet."  just limit calories, avoid fattening foods, and get off the couch!  www.Loseit.Com can guide you and it's totally free.  One pound a week is a safe, reasonable goal for weight loss.

Question 2

how to lose 36 lbs. in 35 days?

Accepted Answer

How about 5 - 10 lbs: Make sure you exercise at least 90 minutes a day, don't skip meals, avoid soda, juice, dairy, alcohol and fried foods.  Eat a healthy well balanced diet! also water, organic vegetable broth, green leafy vegetables, natural pickles, apples are great to fill you up so you dont feel hungry and they are very low in calories.

Question 3

i'm bicycling to try and lose weight. how much do i need to ride 3 days a week to lose 1-2 lbs a week. also, i'm 42 yrs old.

Accepted Answer

The Best Exercise: You need a minimum of 20 minutes per episode of exercise three to five times per week.  This exercise should also be of moderate intensity: i.e. A heart rate of no more than 130 bpm.  You should be able to still speak in full sentences when you exercise. This allows you to burn sugars and fats...The things you need to burn to lose weight.

Question 4

beginning of the month i weighed 145 but i have lost 5 lbs. is this a good amount to lose a month. i workout 6 days a week for almost 40 minutes dancing. i eat health too. ?

Accepted Answer

Good pace: If you are trying to lose weight, aiming for a loss of about one pound per week is a good pace. Please note that it will get harder to lose weight as you near your healthy body weight. It is good that you exercise.
Wish you good health! - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex, if you have sex.

Question 5

if i only eat 600 calories a day and work out for 30 minutes a day, is it possible that i lose 25 lbs in 50 days?

Accepted Answer

Could: Not advisable, many health issues at stake. U should have started a tear ago & done it properly.

Question 6

i weigh 245. if i work out 4 times a week at the gym for an hour each time and take long walks on 2 other days how long will it take to lose 100 lbs?

Accepted Answer

Depends: This is entirely a function of calories-in, calories-out. If you increase your eating, you'll gain. It's impossible for most people to control eating very well. Only a major lifestyle change or bariatric surgery will result in permanent weight loss. My hope is you'll find friends who have aerobic-fitness-focused lifestyles who can guide you; it helps restore healthy appetite control. Good luck.

Question 7

i've lost 34 lbs want to lose 50 more. i watch my calories and log my food and exercise 6 days a week but hit a plateau . what do i do?

Accepted Answer

Control your carbs: Congratulations on your success!  now it's time to put positive lifestyle habits in place that will keep you healthy (that's how you get to a proper weight). The bottom line is to eat real food. There are 2 good places to go to learn what that means: primal and paleo lifestyles. Stop counting calories and start controlling starches and sugars (no more than 100 grams of total carbs/day).

Question 8

i'm trying to lose 30 lbs after having my thyroid removed in may. is this ever going to be possible? i work out 6 days a week. frustrated

Accepted Answer

Thyroid: You must have your thyroid levels measured - TSH, T4, T3 (liothyronine).
If there is an abnormality in the results correction is simple and straightforward.
If there are no abnormal thyroid results follow your doctor's advice and also see a dietitian.

Question 9

why can't i lose weight? i am a 56 year old female who has been on weight watchers since january of 2011 and have only lost 30 lbs. i am doing cardio and weight training at least 5 days a week and have not lost a pound since oct 2011. blood test are still

Accepted Answer

Weight : Weight loss is such a frustrating thing.  Our bodies evolved to hold onto weight, and it can be very difficult once a plateau is reached.  I have to say, that losing 30 pounds is amazing, so congratulations.  You are doing everything right.  You might need to "jump start" your weight loss by a change in exercise program.  You may want to consult a personal trainer, or ask a staff member at your gym for more variety in your routine.   Again, congratulations on losing 30 pounds, that is fantastic.
