I am 15, 5′5, and 147 pounds (67kg) . I keep a very healthy, Russian home cooked diet. I haven’t eaten at McDonalds since I was 9, and I drink pop maybe 3 times a year. In the summer, I went to the gym alot and did alot of cardio and weights for 3 hours, 5 days a week, I did not lose weight and looked pretty much the same except I felt more muscular. My diet isn’t high in fat and is pretty healthy. I am generally a happy person, and am not stressed out.
I don’t like the "low-fat, low carb" whatever type foods because I believe fresh and healthy is the best way to go. I am also someone who gets more pleasure from the taste of the food, rather than knowing its low calorie. I am still not accustomed to many foods in America such as cereal, muffins, scones, peanut butter and jelly etc
I don’t have time now in the fall to go to the gym as I am now going to school and receive high grades. I look good in clothes and it is not a huge issue, yet I still have a bit of weight on the tummy.
By the way, I do drink 8-10 glasses of water a day
and I have asked my friend how much she thinks I weight and she said I look like I am 130.
I do not look that heavy, its just the scale

Here are some tips that have served me well:

eat slowly/chew more than normal
(you will enjoy the food and you will *poop* it out of your system faster- which is good!)

put your fork or spoon down (that means on the table!) in between bites

use a smaller than usual utensil or even a straw for drinks and yogurt

drink water throughout the day. no excuses.

don’t sit in front of the TV
(studies say people who eat while watching TV will eat more than people somewhere free of stress)

put lots of effort into preparing it
(don’t just open a wrapper and dig in)
** if i am eating at home and not on-the-run, i will take my yogurt (for example) and spoon it into a glass dish and make it look pretty. for some reason, i enjoy it more

don’t feel obligated to fill your plate or swipe it clean at a restaurant. you won’t be wasting food because you could always carry it out. you’ll actually save money because the leftovers could make a good lunch the next day

cut your food. no need to take ginourmous bites. it doesn’t look right and this rule goes back to the "prepare" rule

I’m trying to lose weight. I need to lose about 30 lbs. My plan is to eat a normal breakfast, lunch, dinner each day, but not eat a bite after 6:00 because I’ve heard that after 6 the food turns to fat quicker. I then plan to ride a bicycle for 20 minutes for 5 days a week. Is this a decent way to lose weight? Comment please.

I’ve lost 15 lbs in a week and 3 inches of my waist line without workout. The weight management plan for is to substitute 2 of your regular meals with healthy and completely nutritious shake. I never feel hungry nor craving for food till my next meal or shake.

I like the herbal tea also, as soon as I drink it, I am perspiring. It is true to it’s label that one serving is equivalent to 20 minutes aerobic exercise.

I am not telling you this because of I am a herbal product distributor, I really tried the products and it works and that is the time I decided to share this healthy way to others like you.

Please visit the website below for the products that really works and feel free to contact me for some coaching as you go along with this weight plan.

I have been following a weight loss program for 4 weeks. I have been going to the gym 6 days a week. I do at least 30 minutes of cardio on a treadmill or elliptical. 2 of those 6 days I attend a 1 hour long intense dance aerobics class. I do about 30 minutes of strength training. I alternate which body parts I work on by day (i.e. arms and back - M W F and legs and abs T Th S. I have been trying to increase the intensity of my cardio workouts gradually by increasing the distance or incline.

I started a food journal about three weeks ago after I wasn’t please with my results the first week. I count my calories. I eat between 1200-1400 per day. I lost about 7 pounds after I started the food journaling and calorie counting (from 178 to 171.2), but this past week it appears I gained a few pounds at the beginning of the week (I weigh myself every morning) and I am just now .5 pounds away (171.8) from where I was last week. I haven’t changed anything. What could be happening?

Calories last week and this week:
1110 - Monday Sept 7
1100 - Tuesday Sept 8
1204 - Wednesday Sept 9
1490 - Thursday Sept 10
1145 - Friday Sept 11
1600 - Saturday Sept 12
1170 - Sunday Sept 13
1135 - Monday Sept 14
1348 - Tuesday Sept 15
1395 - Wednesday Sept 16

NOTE: I did have a bout of constipation(TMI sorry) this week.

If you want to lose weight some weeks. You can try Lose weight a week plan first!

Day 1:

Eat the soup accompanied with watermelon and melon for your main food all day long. Consume a glass of unsweetened cranberry juice before you go to bed.

Day 2:

Stop eating fruit at all! Consume your soup and you are allowed to eat green salad. Make sure the salad contain no dressings, peas and corns.

For dinner you can consume roasted potato or baked potato with butter (don’t ever think to fry it)

Day 3:

Consume the soup, salad and fruit but no potato today.

Day 4:

Eat the soup accompanied with a glass of skimmed milk. Consume 8 pieces of banana to provide your body enough energy. Your body now need carbohydrate and protein also calcium to lessen body need for sugar.

Day 5

Eat your soup again. Today you should consume salad and salmon fish. Make sure the salmon fish don’t exceed 10 ounces.

Day 6

You should consume maximum 10 ounces of meat along with your soup. You need the protein here.

Last Day

Consume 4 table spoons of rice with vegetables. Drink fresh watermelon or melon juice without sugar and eat your soup also today.

I’m a 17 year old boy. I’m not fat at the moment. But i am just trying to uncover my abs a bit My mum just made dinner and since i am NOT able to exercise for the next 2-4 days due to an injury i want to eat the food which will make me gain the least weight. The options are lasagna with no cheese, or i could make myself a bread stick with salad and maybe so ham in it, or some soup with some toast. or weetabix with low fat milk, i normally have 6 weetabix Which will have the least affect on me?

salad and broth based soup would be the best

Hi !

I lost 105 pounds in 1 year….and still counting.

I started out by eating a high fiber breakfast, now I eat 2 eggs and 1 toast with coffee, or Mal-O-Meal with coffee.
Drink 3 liters of water every day and eat big salads; I mean really big, filled with any lettuce you like or cabbage, carrots, onions, tomatoes, bell peppers, tofu, chicken breast, tuna ETC.

I had a treadmill and the dvd KickBox BootCamp. I would walk on the treadmill for 30 minutes and do 30 minutes of the dvd M-F. Now I jog 3 days of the week and use Day 1 of the 30 Day Shred.
I used to eat candy on the weekends, but now I count my calories so that I eat less than 1,200 calories everyday…and that includes a cookie or Kit Kat Bar.

Obvioulsy i know its hard work eating healthy and exercise but any advice anyone can give me would be awesome. My mum said if i lose 15 kilos she’ll buy me a WII so thats my incentive lol. I’m actually addicted to food though the same way that a druggie is addicted to drugs, whats the best way i could train myself to stop thinking about food everytime im bored. Also excercise tips for beginners lol!!

I’ve heard of some of the weight-loss programs starting you with 3 days of raw food, obviously no meats. What might this look like? What are good alternative sources of protein that are raw or natural, if any?

your looking at probably just fruits and veggies .
