What type of exercise regimen would be appropriate, how many times a week should I work out, for how long, at what intensity etc etc what should I be eating/not eating? I'm very confused at where to begin.
Answer:
That is an unrealistic goal and you are setting yourself up for failure. Aim to lose one pound a week. If you have never exercised before, start slowly. Walk 20 minutes as many days as you can and gradually increase the time. You must eat in order to keep your metabolism revved up. Try 4-5 small meals each day. You don't say if you are male or female or how tall you are so its impossible to give you exact calories. Stick to lean protein, whole grains and lots of fruits and veggies. This is a lifestyle change, not a quick fix.
If you are willing to us a special diet I would recommend the Cambridge Diet. It's a liquid diet that offers 100% of your daily nutritional requirements. You can either take it 6 times a day, or 4 times a day with a sensible meal. The frequency is a key to the diet. If your body gets use to eating every 2 hours, it's not going to convert the food to fats (as much). If you only eat one meal a day, your body goes into a "protection" mode. It thinks that it must store fat because it doesn't know when it might get food next. The only bad thing about this diet is that your stomach shrinks, which causes some pain. (It's good that it shrinks because you tend to eat less. It's just bad that you have too go through the pains. You should drink 8 glasses of water a day with this. This not only helps relieve the pain, it flushes out toxins, and keeps your stomach full. On the 3rd day you hurt a bit, and you want to eat everything you can find. When you make it past day 3 you don't even think about food.The best thing about this diet is that it actually reduces your stomach size, speeds up your metabolism by putting your body in a thermogenic state; and gives you 100% of your daily requirements. My brother and I went on this diet. I lost 27 pounds and my brother lost 25. It's not a fad diet. You should only stay on the diet for 2 weeks at a time. I know about 8 people who have been on this diet and done just as well. Some have lost more.Don't forget exercise is also very important. If you don't do so now I would recommend at least 3 days per week.FYI-My personal trainer is finishing his doctorate. His class did a study on about 20 different diets. This is the only one that they found to be true to their promises.Don't take my word for it (or anyone else's). Do your research. There are too many quacks out there.I hope this helps.
Hi
They say walking is the best form of exercise and it's free lol!! also I would think 2 to 3 lbs a week is a healthy weight loss. Drinking 6 to 8 glasses of water helps (add squeeze of lemon if you can't bare plain water) A healthy diet should include some treats but of course within moderation. Really it all depends on your weight right now and how active you are. The more active the more calories you will lose.
walk quikly for a hour every day eat heathy foods and if u got a bike rided as long as u want eveyday get a exercise dyd and do it and as for food u can only eat
fruit and veges
meat
couple slice of bread per day
salads
wheat bixs
premium or anything like that so u can put anything on it
and drink lots of water
Your question was "How can I loose 20 pounds in three months. Well, you don't. You shouldn't be looking to loose weight, you should be looking to be healthy. You can't wake up one day and decide that you want to loose twenty pounds through pure exercise and eating right. Then 20 turns into 30 and 30 turns into 40. Not attempt to loose weight attempt to be healthy.
Oh, you should know a lots of information when you want to lose weight.And calculate you calories one day!If you are fat and If u want to lose weight

Don鈥檛 consume: * Bread
* Alcoholic drinks
* Carbonated drinks
* Any drinks that contains sugar
* Fatty food and fried food--And optimize your body metabolism by doing the body clock habit.- Start your day with eating high protein breakfast.- Grains and cereals should be only done in the morning to complement our body clock schedule. While dinner should involves low carbs.- Get used to wake up at the same time everyday. That will let our body to adjust itself to control the production of melatonin hormone. The melatonin triggered the sleep, so by keeping the same gap between waking up and sleeping will ensure a constant peak of melatonin during the night. This will lead into a healthier life and better sleep.- Morning sun will heat the temperature in your body. So make sure your dining room gets a lot of sunlight. It warms up your body and set your internal clock in tune faster, your body temperature, energy and alertness will be optimized during the day.There's nothing miracle in this diet, and this is not a get slim quick scheme, if you want a get slim quick method then I suggest a fads diet for you.

How Can I Loose 10lbs In Five Weeks?
Well Really little over five weeks.I'm 5'1 and I'm a female my weight seems to go more to my hips so if everyone can tell me some good workouts and amount of food to eat that would be very nice.
Answer:
There is no way anyone here can suggest to you an amount of calories to ingest daily. There are no cookie cutter fitness programs. Everyone comes with their own set of limitations and goals. With that said, you must take it into your hands to figure out your daily caloric intake. Just type that in, and you will find a bunch of sites that will calculate this for you based on your activity level, your body fat percentage, etc. It is possible to lose 10 pounds in 5 weeks. This will put you right at 2 pounds per week. Once you figure out how many calories you must take in, subtract about 250-300 from it. This is your new caloric intake per day. Now, in order to fulfill the other half of the deal, you must work out. Cardio, weights, stretching. This will knock off another 250 calories or so over the course of a week. Weight loss doesn't have to be complicated. You can take the guesswork out of it by doing all the things listed above. Also, there is no such thing as spot reducing. Your hips are your problem area, but when you begin to lose body fat, you will lose it from all over. You may find that your hips are the last to go. Just keep it up until you get the results you desire.
1300 calories per day, and run for 30 minutes every day. By doing that, I've been losing 2-3 pounds a week.
when i need to lose a quick few I do the low carb 2 week plan.. It works great... I have also done the cabbage soup diet... It also works great.. Good luck..
I will set you up with a personalized plan designed just for you and your goals contact me at http://www.betterbodiesbycarmel.com/... Carmel- ISSA Certified Personal Trainer
If you are really interested in losing weight then this is the diet that works fast. In addition it is a detox diet, so you are cleaning out your system at the same time that you are losing weight. None of the vital food sources are left out.If you are serious about losing weight then search the web for 'cabbage soup diet'. There are a few variations of the cabbage soup itself so pick the one with the ingredients you prefer and then follow the seven day plan, which is the same for all of them. It works, I know because I use it every now and again. (And have been for many years) Mainly after Christmas. And don't worry, you don't ONLY eat cabbage. You lose 5kg+ in one week. (+- 11 lbs) but obviously only if you follow it strictly! (And drink lots of water! Possibly set an alarm on your handy that will beep you every hour during the day, then drink a glass of water. Many people say they forget to drink water until they are thirsty which is too late) Exercise regularly to increase weight-loss.Don't forget that this IS a Diet and not meant to be continued for weeks on end. After you have lost the weight required, you must evaluate your eating/exercise habits and make consequent changes if you don't want to gain it back.It is up to you now.Good luck

How can I loose 10 pounds in a week?
I am 5'6 1/2. 5'7 in shoes and I weigh 135. I just cant seem to loose the 10 pounds that I gained over Winter. Does anybody have any ideas? I want to weigh 125 lbs.
Answer:
Losing 10 pounds in one week would be extremely unhealthy. Change up your eating and exercise habits so you can take the weight off gradually. You took a whole season to put it on, you're not going to get rid of it in one week. 2 pounds per week is a healty goal. Doing anything that would take off 10 pounds in one week would just ensure that you'd put it all back later.Get a free consultation with a dietician or personal trainer for good ideas on getting the weight off. Trying to find the answer yourself online will lead you down a long fruitless road if you don't know where to look

How can I loose 1 dress size in three days ?!?!?
Im a size ten and have lent my mates skirt to wear at the w/e shes an 8 but im a ten so its up by my bellybutton as it wont fit round my waste im not going to change the outfit its perfect. so how can I loose my waist or should I jus wear hotpants so no one can see my bum poking out lol ??
Answer:
A salon body wrap on the day will pull off an inch or so temporarily.A damned good set of control pants is probably your best bet. x
u cant. wear a girdle
Steam room or a body wrap, bit costly but it'll work!
Nothing looks worse than tight clothes. you're a good size 10 cant you borrow something else?
It's dangerous to loose weight too quickly. I wouldn't advise it at all. And I don't think you'll loose enough in three days anyway. Just make sure, to put it politely, that you've emptied your bowels. Wear a girdle. Or control top underwear.
Or give in and wear something else. Seriously. You'll probably be uncomfortable the whole time in that skirt.
Are you looking for a miracle? Wave a magic wand because without it, it is just not possible.
Not a particularly uplifting experience, but my patients tend to lose weight with enema treatment.It would only work as a short term solution!

How can i look good by summer?
i want to look nice a skinny in like 60 days, and i was wondering how much weight i could lose in that amount of time. i would be on tow meals a day woth special k, and go running about 1/2 mile everyday, and do crunches, sit ups, jump on the trampoline, and scwats everyday? i also have strech maks on my sides, and legs. i was wondering if i lost weight if they would be less noticable. also guys who are about 16 if you saw a girl with strechmarks, but she had a nice body would it still gross you out? i have also tried to make them less noticable by using coco butter, but it hasn;t workes so are there any other suggestions on how to make there barley noticable,( preffabley in about a month)
Answer:
Oh my gosh..you sound just like me a few years ago:)You can definitley look good by summer by doing that... but make sure you eat a lot of healthy food all day long..the special k thing will work..it's just hard not to get sick of it...Do extra cardio..thats the most important..For the stretch marks:I have them too. I've used cocoa butter and had treatments for them..they dont' go away..the only way I've noticed that they seem to disapper is when Im tan.The tan makes them camoflauged. Also when you lose weight they won't be as noticeable and when you have the tan too you won't really be able to see them.And more than 85% of women have stretch marks..it's almost impossible not to have them It's just natural. Theres really nothing you can do to get rid of them. Just keep your head held high and don't think that, just because you notice them and they bother you..that that's what everyone else is looking at..cause chances are if you don't make them a big deal..no one else will..good luck with everything
i'm sure you'll do well:)
