How can i lose weight if i hardly eat and i take birth control pills...plus i dont have time to exercise?


Answer:
drink more water.and of course you have time to exercise
there are 24 hours in a day and you dont have a half an hour?Can you go for a walk on your lunch break?If you have cable there are alot of free on demand exercise videos.I know it seems impossible , but if you exercise you will actually have more energy.
As far as birth control pills causing weight gain thats only 5-10 lbs at the most. I tried to get my md to change mine because i thought there was a problem and he said it doesnt make that big a diff, unless you just have 10 lbs to lose.
Eating too little can actually slow down your metabolism. Id reccomend eating a little something every few hours.Id also not skip breakfast. That can slow things down too. Good luck.

"Don't have time" is the worst excuse in the world. You make time for things that are important to you.
Drink lots of water before meals and watch ur daily calories. U could always wake up a little earlier to go for a walk!
You won't.If you don't eat,your brain thinks the body is going into starvation mode and will hang onto every calorie.Eat to lose.Small meals every three hours.This method keeps the metabolism going and your body will burn more calories.Birth control pills should have no affect on weight loss.Drink as much water as possible.this helps tremendously
Birth control pills do not affect your weight! They MAY have when they originally came out in the 40'or50's. But that is such a common myth that women choose to use instead of looking at their own life style choices. You yourself said they you do not exercise, maybe that has something to do with it! My doctor once told me that every time a patient tries to claim the pill is making her gain weight she ask about her eating and exercising habits, and guess what? Ones habits are always the reason!Further more, there is not any miracle way of being thin and being in shape (unless your part of the 1% of the population who was born that way). It's a lifestyle choice. And if you cannot make time in your life to eat healthy (yes you have to eat), and to get any exercise into your life (even if it's just 30 minutes a day), then you will never reach your goals. You have to have your mind in the right place before your body will follow.
go on a water diet,dink nothing but water.That means no soda,juice,coffee,or anything but water.That's what I did and lost a lot of weight.
find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours)
5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water
have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
have lean meat (protein) for dinner - repairs muscle
cardio exercise 4-6 times a week for 30-50min, light weight training
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, past etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried, oily.
ofcourse you can spoil yourself once in a while with a little treat:)
