Will green tea diet pills help me with my weight loss plan?

Wednesday, July 29th, 2009

Im biking at least 5 miles every day and im swimming three days a week
im also doing sit ups every morning and night
im off all junk food and sweets blah blah blah.
I want to lose about 15 lbs in 5 weeks
do you think green tea diet pills will help
thanks so much

Why not just drink actual green tea? I never trust pills - it’s not as good as getting the actual antioxidants straight from brewed green tea. You will probably not lose a ton of weight by drinking this — but it can help a bit.

Does the Think & Lose weight loss program really work?

Monday, July 27th, 2009

The Think & Lose program says: listen to a tape once and your subconscious mind will no longer crave sugary, unhealthy foods, but will crave healthy foods instead, and you’ll feel full and satisfied halfway through a meal you would normally finish. This allows you to lose pounds of excess weight and keep it off for good. I was wondering if this was really a scam or if this really does help you using hypnosis. I would prefer answers from those who’ve tried the product, but all help is welcome.

I have been through it all and know what’s it about. The main thing is to stick in there. You can’t be an addict to food and never exercise if you want to live a healthy life and keep the weight off. I’ve worked out, done every diet, and all types of classes.

Nothing works, besides dedication and intelligence towards the subject of losing weight.

First, depending on how much weight you need to lose, your diet is the first concern. You can’t eat 10,000 calories a day and expect the weight to come off, even if you are exercising a lot. Which brings us to the next thing. Duh, Exercising…

This is a must especially if you need to a lot of weight. Get at least 30 mins of some good hardcore exercising. Do some cardio, in the long run, it’s good for the heart.

However, I find the most hardest part of losing weight/keeping it off, in my diet. It’s so hard to keep your fingers out of the cookie jar or those chocolate goodies. I’ve found a great addition to help any one out, it’s a natural weight loss supplement called Proactol. Now don’t get all crazy on me and say diet pills don’t work. That is true, but not in this case. This one isn’t meant to burn pounds while you sit on the couch. It’s an appetite suppressant, along with being a fat binder. I saved money on the pills at theweightlossplace.com along with getting some good info. It basically makes those fingers not go towards the cookie jar. For me it’s the best pill I’ve tried and I’ve tried cupboards full. Now this doesn’t mean you have to follow my foot steps but I’ve successfully lost roughly 70 pounds and keeping it off til this day.

Well good luck and remember what I said, Dedicate.

Has anyone ever tried Jenny Craig or any other weight loss program?

Monday, July 27th, 2009

I was just wondering if anyone has ever tried it and what it was like. My boyfriend and I are thinking of doing it as a couple. Also I have diabetes, I would imagine the food would be okay with sugar?

**I will only except REAL ANSWERS, anyone being a jerk will be happily deleted :) <3**

I’ve heard Weight Watchers is good, but if you change your eating ways permanently, you don’t have to join anything. Write what you eat in a food diary and count your calories. Eat healthy like this:
You should eat some protein with every meal! Beans are a great substitute for meat and can be put in soup or salad or tacos. Eat fresh salmon…it’s better. About 10 almonds a day is good or about 5 walnuts, no other nuts. Peanut or almond butter is good to use as a dip for apple slices.
Eat brown rice, veggies and baked fish for dinner.
Oatmeal for breakfast with fruit in it.
Drink fruit smoothies during the day for a snack. Try to eat protein at every meal…for breakfast with the oatmeal, eat a scrambled egg white or a hard boiled egg.
Eat a salad or chicken/turkey sandwich on whole wheat for lunch. Use olive oil and vinegar dressing…no saucy dressings.
Drink water only.
Never eat white or processed foods.
Try baked sweet potatoes…mmm… Eat spinach salads, not plain lettuce and add all the veggies you want to it. Try red wine vinegar…a few splashes and a little drizzle of olive oil.
If you want a crunchy snack, cut up a cucumber and put in lite Italian dressing or better yet, half cold water and half white vinegar. I mix mine with some cherry tomatoes too…

A good smoothie needs a good blender, so make sure you have one, cut up 1 banana, some blueberries (about 10-15) and strawberries (about 5), a cup or so of skim milk, a sprinkle of flax seed (buy a container of it and keep in fridge), a scoop of vanilla protein powder and blend it up, add a bit of crushed ice and you’ve got a good smoothie. You can add any kind of fruit…I cut up peaches sometimes too or frozen cherries.

Try reverse crunches, where you lift your legs up and out. Go to SELF.com for good tips…I love their workouts. Walk or run a lot and
use a stability ball for crunches.

Chinese food and weight loss?

Thursday, July 23rd, 2009

Do you think it would be okay to eat chinese food that consists of a vegetable plate, vegetable egg roll, and hot and sour soup, skip the rice. Do you think I can still maintain my weight if i eat like this.

The veggies are fine, but if there is any sauce on it probably is not. The veggie egg roll is usually deep-fried, so thats a big no-no. Hot and sour soup may not be too bad for you. Try to add some fruit and some lean protein-chicken. Just be sure its not deep-fried=]

what is the fastest way to lose weight the healthy way?

Saturday, July 18th, 2009

I have been having trouble losing weight and sticking to my workout routine and having trouble choosing the healthy foods. I really need to lose weight for health reasons cause I am considered overweight based on my height. I need to lose at least 30 pounds to get to my healthy weight. so what is the fastest way to lose 30 pounds the healthy way? please include fitness and nutrition plan. any DVD recommendations? any weight loss tips? any answers would be appreciated thanks,

Hi,

I have the proper solution for your specific case, read on.

Everybody wants to look their best and what better way than to go on a lose weight. Losing weight can be a boring experience but it is important to avoid boredom at all costs. That way you stay focused. The other important thing is to have the drive to lose weight. Go ahead and find something that will motivate you. Visualize yourself succeeding and then actually take action. It is that easy.

So in order to lose weight and look great you need to diet correctly. Do this by eating healthier foods. You may want to cut back your calorie intake but not to the point where you feel out of energy and hungry all the time. To avoid hunger you should eat frequently so that you stay satisfied all day. This technique also boosts your metabolism so that you burn more fat and feel better. Eat clean foods that are not high in fat and sugar. Consume foods like fruit, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, beans, and lean meats.

Start a work out program so that you burn more calories. Try to get at least twenty minutes of exercising in each day. You can also take a day off each week. I find it is easier to Work out during the week days and then take the weekend off. Just start working out slowly and then progress. Once you get in shape it will be much easier to burn off more calories. Dieting to lose weight does not have to be a boring task.

All the best, and do let us know how it goes!

Weight loss- foods that i should avoid. FAST WEIGHT LOSS please help?

thanks -brad

Hi Brad,
Whether you are trying to lose weight or simply maintain your current waistline, being aware of proper meal portions is the key to a healthy body.

1. Breakfast : Whether you are having a bowl of cereal or a bagel, it is important to have only one serving. For instance, did you know that half a mini bagel is a true single serving ?

2. Meat : This is one of the foods which we often eat way too much of. We have gotten so used to giant restaurant portions that many of us tend to consume 3 times more than we should be. An average serving of meat should be equal in size to a deck of cards.

3. Pasta : This is yet another food that we overindulge in a single serving of pasta should fit in the palm of your hand. We all are guilty f consuming up to 4 servings in just one sitting !

4. Juices : We tend to drink juices like there is no tomorrow. However, before indulging in three glasses a day, check out the calorie content in just one serving. You may be surprised at how many calories you are drinking.

Remember that it is much better to consume smaller meals more frequently throughout the day than it is to consume two giant meals.If you are serious about weight loss you can also try all natural diet pills.
