Will becoming a vegitarian help tremendously with weight loss?
Q. I am trying to lose some weight, about 30 pounds. I was thinking about becoming a vegetarian for a while. While I am trying to mantain a healthy diet and excercise, will this help? Alsoo...I am worried that when i lose the weight, i will gain it back. Will building muscle help me not gain this weight back? Any other tips on weight loss? Please no advertisements for stupid websites! only legit weight loss websites, if you are going to post them at all. thanks everyone!

A. No being a vegetarian will not help with weight loss. The only thing that helps with weight loss is reducing the amount of calories you eat and increasing your exercise.
I'd say stick to the following overall guideline and foods:
Fruits: (all fruits are good but some are better for making the weight loss process better, so I suggest only eating the following fruits)
apples
oranges/clementines
mangoes
grapefruits
peaches
blueberries (frozen is good too since they're not really in season)
strawberries
banana
kiwis
dried fruit: prunes and apricots
Vegetables (same all are good but for weight loss only stick to these)
sweet potatoes
broccoli
spinach
kale
salad
celery
cucumber
pepper (red, orange, green and yellow)
tomatoes
carrots
cauliflower
cabbage
red cabbage
onions
garlic

Dairy: (normally low fat is fine but for now only do fat free)
skim milk
fat free yogurt
fat free cottage cheese

Proteins: (stick to lean meats and proteins high in Omega 3's which helps w/ stress and helps w/ weight loss too)
salmon
light tuna drained in water
egg whites (the yolk is fine for maintaining weight but for loosing weight try to avoid it)
lean white chicken breast (grilled chicken is good)
smoked turkey breast
hummus
garbanzo beans (high in fiber)
tofu (only fresh tofu)
black beans

Grains: (only whole grain- there are many healthy grains but for the purpose of loosing weight stick to these foods)
whole wheat bread
whole wheat English muffins
oatmeal (only Quaker regular/plain)
Kashi whole grain blueberry/original/strawberry flax waffles
Amy's Organic (its a brand) strawberry pop tarts and apple pop tarts
whole wheat hamburger buns (if you choose to have a garden or tofu burger)
low fat quaker granola bars
regular cheerios (you may add honey to it if you need an extra hit of taste)
brown rice (get the kind that is higher in fiber)
whole wheat couscous
lentils and beans

Fats: (you will need fat in your diet...so stick to these fats)
Olive Oil
Reduced Fat Kraft Mayo
I Can't Believe It's Not Butter
Peanut Butter (natural kind...no Jiff or Skippy)
Almonds
Cashews

And when you need that hit of "dessert" choose only 1 of the following:
1) homemade fruit and yogurt smoothie
cup of frozen strawberries
cup of frozen vanilla low fat Hagan Daz yogurt
half cup skim milk
in the blender for 2 and half minutes and ENJOY

2) homemade apple/cranberry/oatmeal crisp
half cup of uncooked oatmeal
tbsp of I Can't Believe It's Not Butter
1/4 cup of brown sugar
tbsp cinnamon
- put that on the stove and mix and cook together until lightly brown

Apple
Cranberry Sauce
put sliced apple in a small pan then add cranberry then add the blend
Bake at 350 for 45 minutes and ENJOY!

3) purchased Kashi Happy Trail Mix Cookies

Also drink plenty and plenty of water.
Calorie Wise I am not sure b/c I don't how tall you are...But I would guess about 1300 calories a day and work out for 45 5x a week.


I'm searching for the perfect weight loss website...?
Q. I am wondering if there is a weight loss website that has delicious fun to cook meals and grocery lists on budget. Hopefully a day by day schedule as well. help please?

SPANKS!!!

A. You should check out sparkpeople.com and see what you think. It has a calorie counter that tells you how many calories are in whatever food you put in. Also, they have alot of recipes availble, a section for you to put in what you eat each day and it will tell you how many calories, protein, carbs, etc. that you consumed for that day. I offers excercises and demos of how to do them. It has many groups to join like emotional eaters, biggest loser fans, and more. I use it and it really helps, and it's FREE!


Why is this website saying I need to consume 3118 calories?
Q. So I was just browsing the internet and happened upon a weight loss website and was reading since I am dieting at the moment. I try not to exceed 1800 calories a day and I do an exercise routine everyday. The website is telling me that with my weight, height, age, and activity level I need 3118 calories....won't that make me gain weight?

A. Yes, it definitely will. Just do what works for you if it's healthy...and what you're doing sounds healthy.
