Q. I want to loose 10lbs by February. I know Cardio helps with weight loss ( I have a tread mill and elliptical). What are some dieting tips I can use as well? I weigh 175lbs right now, the goal is 165lbs.
A. Cut out sugar, low fat keep carbs down to 50mg a day, 30-40 min cardio, but also include 20-30 min of wheight training, muskel burns more calories than fat.
How many calories should a teen get a day?
Q. I'm trying to lose a little wheight and I need some tips! Also, how many calories do I need a day?
A. The average person is said to need about 2000 calories a day, but it really depends on your body type and metabolism. But I personally think it's stupid to obsess over counting calories. Just enjoy your food (but still eat healthy)!
Diet pills or any kind of weight loss product that advertises no healthy eating or exercises is bad for you.
I'm not going to tell you to diet because that's ridiculous. But as for exercise, that's needed for your body to stay healthy. Trust me. So read this, please. I'm not trying to offend you but this is just a suggestion to live a happy and healthy lifestyle.
First of all, I really hope that throughout this process you're considering your health before your image. It's really not healthy to starve yourself by just drinking slim fast and protein shakes. This is a healthier version of weight loss that your body will thank you for!
Exercise:
A. Go to your local gym. I personally love going to the YMCA and taking classes such as Spin, Boot Camp, and Xtreme Pump. They are an hour long each and REALLY help you to get fit!
B. *If you can't afford a membership or just don't have the time, you could wake up early in the mornings or go out in the evenings for a nice run around your neighborhood. Bring an iPod or MP3 with you to pump yourself with fast-paced and easy going music.
*You can also set a goal for yourself to do 100 sit ups, push ups, and stretches every morning and night, and before you take your run. It helps to build muscle and tone the areas that running doesn't focus on.
Food: (THIS IS NOT A DIET)
First and foremost, please DO NOT go on any crazy, unhealthy, starving diets. Still eat 3 meals a day with a snack between each.
(and all of this is from my experience)
*For breakfast, have a healthy cereal with a piece of fruit and a bagel. Drink orange juice and/or coffee with it.
*Lunch, a plate of spagetti with low-fat garlic bread and a glass of milk. (BTW, if you drink 3 glasses of low fat milk a day, it helps to make your bones strong and make you leaner :D) Have some broccoli or another small portion of veggies on the side.
*Dinner, similar to lunch: your basic entree, a portion of veggies, some milk and/or water
Snacks can include healthy yogurts, fruits, and wheat thins. Drink water throughout the day, too. It helps to flush out your system and keep you hydrated throughout your exercises.
It sounds like a difficult routine to get used to, but it's so easy once you get started. I do the exact same routine and I am now 115 lbs and VERY healthy and energetic! Working out will be difficult at first, but once your body gets used to using so much energy, it will crave it!
And as far as eating before you exercise, you can do either
*have a snack before
*or have a full meal, then wait an hour before exercising
and ALWAYS eat after exercising, and drink water!
I hope I have helped you and GOOD LUCK!
PS- as for results, you will begin to FEEL them before you notice them! if you exercise for 30 mintues to an hour 4-6 days a week, you can lose up to 3 lbs that week. It's healthy to only lose small amounts of weight at a time, like 2-3 lbs a week.
Results on the scale are also different from your health. When you start exercising you will start to gain muscle, so it will seem like you're not losing weight when you step on the scale, but you will notice by your size.

what are some good wheight loss tips for 13-15 year olds? ?
Q. i am a little over wheight. and i want to loose a couple pounds. what are some good tips to loose wheight fast?
A. It takes -3500 calories to loose a pound, which means you need to both burn calories by working out & take less calories in by eating in order to loose weight.
Eat fruits & veggies of course. It's typical to eat a small breakfast and a big dinner, but my health teacher said you actually want to do the opposite. And never skip breakfast, it helps you loose weight. I stopped driking pop and lost 50 pounds in 1 year!! Don't drink juice. You'd think fruit juice is good for you, but its not. It has alot of sugar and extra calories. People say dont eat carbs' not true, 60% of your diet is suposed to be from some type of carbs... just make sure you eat whole grain or whole wheat bread. And drink only skim milk, all others arent so great for you. Just watch what you eat and pay attention to nutrition labels!
Make sure you do some weight bearing activities along with cardio, it'll help build muscle and burn fat!
Good luck! :)
