I Need More Tips On How To Loose 10lbs (healthily) By September.?
When I was 18 I weighed between 95 and 98 pounds (43kg and 44.5kg). For my height and bone structure underweight is anything below 44.5 kg. At that stage I could eat pretty much anything I wanted and I just would not gain the extra kg that would take me from underweight to normal.
Now I am 22 and weigh 110lbs (50kg) and I have a spring ball coming up in September. I need to be able to fit into my prom dress again by that time, so I need to loose 10lbs (5kg).
I’ve already started only drinking water, 100% organic fruit juice, and 1 cup of coffee a day. I eat 3 healthy meals which contain the necessary food groups. Plus I take a vitamin supplement. I also started cutting out snacks between meals.
I’m not fond of exercise, and don’t really have time for it. But I do sit-ups and push-ups as well as a bit of jump rope in the evening.
Does anybody have any more tips?
Cut down on heavy carbs. If you are having pasta or noodles go for ones which have lower calories! This goes for bread aswell. You’ll be surprised how much difference this makes, some people eat bread that is over 130 calories a slice whereas you can get bread for 50 calories a slice!
Cut out butter and replace it with a lower calorie margarine. This is also healthier than butter!
Stay away from heavily processed foods and try to eat natural stuff. I hope this helps!
Additionally, you could try being a vegetarian for that period of time just as a sort of trial, it will help you lose weight and will be a nice change!
All the best!
This diet has been made by a german doctor called Dr. Pape and I saw him at a show in German RTL television, so, let’s go :
Breakfast : the breakfast has to contain carbohydrates, so you can eat bread, jam; cereals, yogurt fruit biscuits and even a little chocolate.
Lunch : you should eat various vegetables, meat, bread, pasta, rice or potatoes and you are even allowed a small dessert. (if you want you also can eat a hamburger or pizza, but not every day of course)
Dinner : only eat proteins, so only meat, fish, eggs, cheese, and you should add vegetables or salad.
Most important is to leave about 5 hours between meals and not to eat in between meals and to drink a lot of water during the day. You can also drink some light soft drinks (Pepsi Max or Coca Cola light).
After your lunch you are not allowed to drink fruit juice or eat anything sweet like chocolate or biscuits or fruit etc..
This diet causes to regulate the insulin household of your body and allows to build up the fat resorbtion during night while you sleep.
It is also recommended to do a little exercise, if you have no time try to walk instead of driving and to take the stairs instead of elevators.
So you can see with this diet you can eat everything, the important thing is WHEN you eat.
I tried this diet and lost 2 kilos in 3 weeks, I know it is not very fast, but if you lose weight slowly it is better, you won’t regain it so fast.
Good Luck !!!!
drink green tea and try to drink skim milk with your coffee. just stand as much as you can. fidget as much as you can – it burns more calories. take the stairs, not the elevator. or just play sport with your friends, you won’t think of it as exercise.
The key is diet diet and exercise.
You need to eat 5-6 small meals a day. Eat some protein with each meal! Cut out all refined sugar!!! Also add more fiber. The fiber and protein will fill you up, helping you to cut down on your unhealthy eating. Also by eating more than 3 meals spread out through the day you will kick your metabolism in high gear. Here is a general meal for a day:
Breakfast: 2 poached eggs
whole wheat toast
1/2 cup fruit
Snack: Cottage Cheese with veggie
Lunch: Turkey, lettuce, tomato, whole wheat bread sandwich
1/2 cup fruit
Snack: Protein Shake
Dinner: Turkey Burger ( no bun )
Side of brown rice
Side of Broc.
Then exercise regularly 4-5 days a week. Do both cardio and lifting. But on days that you do both. Do lifting before your cardio and you will maximize your fat burn. Cardio can be a sport: basketball, soccer, football, anything with losts of movement. Golf is a no no.
So Example :
Monday – 30 mins lifting then 1 hr cardio
Tuesday – 1 hour lifting
Wednesday – Rest
Thrusday – 30 mins lifting then 1 hr cardio
Friday – 1 hour lifting
Saturday – Rest
Sunday – 30 mins lifting then 1 hr cardio
