Question 1

is is bad to loose 6 lbs  in 1 week? and if so what are the consensuses? i weighed 200 lbs and nowi weigh 194

Accepted Answer

Depends: The thought is that most people probably don't lose more than 2 pounds of fat in a week.  So if someone loses more than that then some of the weight loss can be excess water or muscle mass.  So eating less calories, especially eating less carbs (bread, rice, pasta, potato, fruit juice and pop), and making sure you are getting protein daily and plenty of water usually works well.

Question 2

how to lose my weigh ?

Accepted Answer

See Dr., and then...: Helpful weight loss diets have natural foods that take time to chew but contain few calories. Examples include carrots, celery, and leafy lettuce (little or no salad dressing). When shopping for fruits, buy them no bigger than a tennis ball, because fruits have sugar. Drinks without calories include water and green tea. A calorie is a calorie, but surely avoid sugar or simple starch calories.

Dietician: To gain weight properly you should have one visit to a registered dietician who will inform you about your ideal weight and outline a healthy diet  specifically for you. Your local hospital will arrange an appointment with their dietician for you.

Question 5

Diet options.: All of these diets are relatively new. Diets that are effective include Vegetarian, Vegan, Atkins, Low carbohydrate, Zone, Mediterranean. I use the Paleolithic diet which I feel works well.

Question 7

i  am 5'7 184lbs. is this normal weigh?

Accepted Answer

Weight: Up to about 150 is pretty healthy. If you have a great deal of muscle mass - then heavier is fine.

Question 8

what should ou weigh is your 15 and 5'4?

Accepted Answer

BMI percentile: For adults, we define underactive, normal, overweight &amp; obesity by calculating body mass index. For children &amp; teens, we use BMI percentile w/normal ranging from 5-95% for age. Check out http://nccd.cdc.gov/dnpabmi/Calculator.aspx to calculate BMI then go to http://www.cdc.gov/healthyweight/assessing/bmi/childrens_bmi/about_childrens_bmi.html to determine BMI percentile.

Question 9

how can i gain weigh?
i am 1m70 and 54kg

Accepted Answer

Lean is healthy: First let me say that lean people are healthy people.  So you might want to consider healthy weight gain instead of unhealthy weight gain.  Unhealthy weight is deposited by consuming empty calories.  Junk food is a good source.  Fries, burgers candy, ice cream, etc.  healthy weight gain can be achieved with increasing your muscle mass with weight bearing exercises and high calorie food.

Question 10

what should a 5'5" 48 yr old woman weigh?

Accepted Answer

Body Mass Index: A common method of determining ideal body weight range is the bmi (body mass index).  For your height, you would have a "normal" bmi if you weighed between 114lb and 150lb.  This is only an approximation:  your specific ideal weight for height is dependent on a number of factors, including ethnic background, bone structure, degree of muscularity, waist circumference, others.
