Question

I am 42. What is the fastest healthy way to lose weight through exercise. I am concerned about weight in stomach area and generally around waist area.?

Answer 1

Not much: If you don't want to lose weight, increase your calories or/and cut back on your exercise.

Answer 2

Calories: To lose weight without increasing calorie burn, you will need to consume fewer calories ( eat less).

Answer 3

It is actually: Possible, granted exercise makes it easier. Realize for many, the actual key to weight loss is caloric restriction. You need to make sure that you are "burning" more calories than "eating". Exercise does help "burn" more calories than just normal activities of living and also provides other short/long term health benefits. Consider reviewing with your doc what your caloric numbers should be.

Answer 4

Weight loss.: It's difficult to lose weight without exercise. There's only so much that you can cut calories - at some point you need to start using more of the calories you ingest. That's where exercise comes in.
