Q. Hi.. I am overweight at the age of 19. I want to lose weight in a month very fast and naturally. What sort of exercise I need to do? I don't want to pay for any weight loss programs. Any fat losing food?
A. Hi John,
To lose weight not only you have to workout but you need to concentrate on your diet as well. Eating the right type of foods also help in reducing weight, which comes naturally. No one loses weight overnight, it takes time and determination. Proper diet, regular workout and intake of right foods, fruits and vegetables will make you lose weight faster than you expected

What the cheapest weight lose between the two counting calories or low carb diet?
Q. Yes i i know exercise is cheaper but i plan on doing that anyway.. I've done both weight lose in the past but i can't remember which was cheaper(as far as food)... Both require different foods..
A. As far as money...I don't know. But, think about your health first. Low-carb diets are NOT good for you!!! Please just count your calories (not going below 1200 or 1400 calories for sure) and make sure everything you eat will fuel your body.

What should I types of lunch foods should I eat so I can lose weight?
Q. I am 180lb and 5-11 and I want to lose about 20-25 pounds to get back to my weight from 2 years ago. What types of things should I eat for lunch in order to promote a healthy weight lost. I don't want a quick fix as I want to do this the healthy way so the weight can stay off. If you could give me some things to eat for dinner that would be great as well.
A. Make sure you get lean protein and some complex carbs for lunch. Include fresh fruit and vegetables. Weight loss is an overall process and there are no magic answers. Pay no attention to weight loss supplements and pills and all the latest fads. You need to think about many factors but most of them are related to issues we've known about for a very long time. There are many sensible things you can do that will make a tremendous difference over the long term if you need to lose weight. It can be done in a healthy way. This is what has worked for me.
Keeping a food journal really does help. It will give you a much better sense of how much you are eating, and when, and why.
Make a few additional small changes - walk everywhere, always use stairs instead of elevators, walk on escalators, get up and move around at least once an hour if your work or your life in general is sedentary, walk every day, use a pedometer. Walking 10,000 steps a day is a really good idea. Build up to a long brisk walk everyday, or most days. Be more active and watch less TV and spend less time on the computer. Buy one piece of exercise equipment to have at home and be strict with yourself about using it. Sometimes you can find mini-steppers or exercise bikes at second hand stores and thrift stores for just a few dollars.
Start a weight lifting routine. Join a gym. Possibly you can find one that has someone who specializes in weight lifting programs for beginners. Weight lifting will increase your metabolism as well as improve posture and appearance overall. Even if you can't get to the gym you can work out at home using things around the house. Invest in a good weight training book. The Dummies series actually has a good one.
In terms of diet, cut out or reduce things like junk food, pop, fat, fast food. Eat more fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean meat, fish. Particularly if you choose a vegetarian lifestyle include natural peanut butter, hummus, dried fruit and nuts. Pay close attention to getting the nutrients your body needs to be healthy.
Make your portion sizes smaller. Use a smaller plate - in our society we have become accustomed to thinking that we need a large plate of food at every meal, and we don't. About quarter of your plate of food should be protein and at least half of it should be veggies.
Learn to count calories. At your current weight and activity level, you may possibly need about 2000 calories or more to maintain your current weight. So you will lose weight at a reasonable and healthy rate if you cut back to about 1600 or 1700 calories a day.
Eat small amounts frequently, rather than three large meals. Never skip breakfast. Include some protein in your breakfast. It will help get you through the day.
Drink plenty of water, at least 8 big glasses of water a day, and more if it is very hot, if you sweat a lot, or if you are exercising intensely, and eliminate fruit juices. Fruit juices have too many calories, so get your vitamins from fresh fruit, not the juice. You will begin to see changes in your body.
Vary your routines. Don't eat the same number of calories every day (vary your calories from 1400 a day to 1900 or 2000 some days), eat a variety of foods, and do different kinds and amounts of exercise. You will lose weight much more efficiently if you mix things up from time to time so that your body doesn't adjust to any one routine.
An area that many people overlook is getting enough sleep. You are much more likely to overeat or to binge eat if you are tired and not well rested, so get enough sleep.
Check out websites about nutrition, exercise, weight training, etc. Here are a few helpful links.
