Question

I'm walking 2 miles a day and swimming. Are there any really good over the counter pills that can help. Oh.....I do try to eat healthy(that seems to be the hard part)

Answer 1

cut out entire food groups, like soda, fast food, alcohol, that makes it easier. Don't bother with pills and pick up your exercise, try jogging or biking instead of walking, weight loss takes hard work. Be your own trainer and nutritionist, the basic rules to losing weight are no soda, no fast food, lots of chicken, fish, fresh (not canned that’s bad) fruits and vegies, whole wheat stuff, yogurt. Not so many cakes and donuts and cookies. Basic common sense for eating, you just need to enforce it. Get all the bad stuff out of the house right away, just toss it or give it away while your still motivated. No alcohol and no smoking if that applies. Some juice but make sure its all natural, because the ones that aren't are loaded with sugar and a leading cause in diabetes in children and adults. Lots of water, 3-4 liters a day, not all at once, but spread it out. Its really easy to down a liter or two while your watching tv or on the computer. Also drink some after you eat the bigger meals of the day, it helps your body pick out the nutrients in food when your food is more spread apart. You also need to stay away from any sports drinks unless you’ve just had a long workout and then you need to limit yourself. Most atheletes mix Gatorade with water because its two complex for your body to get all the nutrients out of. It needs to be diluted. These rules may be hard to adapt to at first so start with cutting out the things you know you can live without. Then work from there. Remember these are perfect eating habits, it can take you a while to work into it. If you know you can’t live without your one treat a day, don’t fight it by trying to eat something else, just eat it and make sure that’s the only one you cheat on a day. Otherwise you’ll get depressed and quit. Another important point is getting the right amount of sleep every night. You need 8-9 hours of sleep each night for your body to function correctly. This is an important factor of losing weight. Set up a routine for yourself and go to bed at about the same time each night.
As for exercise, lots of cardio. Find something you like. If you have never exercised much before, start with walking 30 minutes a day at a brisk pace. Move on to different terrains that include hills and increase the time spent. After a week or two, try jogging the route. No matter what find an activity you enjoy. Walking to jogging is just an example, try hiking, rollerblading, biking. Once you get into a regular routine, if your not happy with the level of difficulty, try signing up with a gym. Spinning, pilates or kickboxing classes are great. It will also introduce you to working with weights. Talk to a trainer for instruction before using any weights. A cheap investment is a balance ball, it works you stomach while your just sitting on it, like at your computer and its great for posture. There are hundreds of exercises you can use it for for your entire body. I can give you some ideas if you want, just email me.

Answer 2

Janet Jackson Overweight

Answer 3

You want to get liposuction and do coffee enemas every day
for 4 months? Sorry, Janet. Not judging, I'm just saying.

I lost 12 pounds in 4 weeks and would have lost more if I hadn't
gotten pregnant (yay!!) by implementing a journal, support system, buying lowfat but delicioius food substitutes and adding
cardio 4 days per week. You DO NOT want to do pills: they
are very expensive, habit forming and may damage your liver:
on top of that, they may or may not work for your body. I learned
that the hard way. Weight Watcher or LA Weight Loss is actually
a good investment. The public weigh-in did it for me! Although no one but me and one other person SAW the scale, it just did a mental thing for me. Althouth I do not use the product, the
company that makes Farenheit has an excellent interactive web
site that makes you accountable for your pounds and inches lost,
your committment to fitness and gives excellent tips. Keep a picture of Janet inside a kitchen cabinet and your closet as well.
Visualization and affirmation is good. DO NOT overeat, ever. Drink a gallon of water daily. You will make it, sexy!!

Oh! Oh! And. Plain lowfat yogurt: the protein and calcium help your body metabolize fat faster than anything!

Answer 4

If you are walking 2 miles a day and swimming that is good. About how many cal do you consume? Most people under estimate. I went from 170 to 120 in 3 months by walking 5 miles 4-5 times a week and eating about 600-800 calories. That sounds like it is not alot, but it is all in what you eat. You can easily get enough protien, 5 veg servings, some skim milk and some fruit. But do take a GOOD multi vitamin.
I really have come to believe that the idea of 3 meals a day, snacks...etc are pretty much BS. It was fine when people did manual labor 8+ hours a day, but we all sit on our arses in front of computers...we just simply do not need that much food.

Answer 5

I found the book to be very informative and easy to read.

I've lost 17 pounds in 12 days, I'm just concerned that I'm losing too much weight, too quickly. I will admit I haven't followed the guide exactly. I'm not sticking perfectly to the listed foods and meal plans (but mostly) and doing very little exercise, but the weight keeps flying off.

It clearly works and if I'd followed it exactly I think it would scare the living daylights out of me because of the amount that I'd lose. So thanks again for the information. I've never purchased anything like this before because they are usually full of trash, but 3WD has been a pleasant surprise.

Answer 6

Janet Jackson claims a 70 pound weight loss, She has been using gourmet food delivery service "Fresh Dining" to have perfectly proportioned meals delivered (total daily calories 1000-1400. 5-6 days per week she has worked with a personal trainer for 1-2 hours.

Answer 7

There are pills out there that help but the problem with them is that they have bad side effects and most of the time when you go off of them, you gain back the weight you lost plus more, not good! I know from experience. Stick with the diet and exercise that is the best way, Janet Jackson also gets colonics done too, which helps...also you may want to add weight training to your regimen, muscle burns fat :)

Answer 8

Krista is full of crap:
"Some juice but make sure its all natural, because the ones that aren't are loaded with sugar and a leading cause in diabetes in children and adults. "
BS. Natural juices have sugar also. And there's no proven link between juice and diabetes.
"Lots of water, 3-4 liters a day, not all at once, but spread it out. Its really easy to down a liter or two while your watching tv or on the computer."
More BS. No proof that drinking water is helpful. All this is good for is making you pee a lot.
"Also drink some after you eat the bigger meals of the day, it helps your body pick out the nutrients in food when your food is more spread apart."
WHAT?? This is total crap. There is NO evidence to support this BS. (where does she get this?) Your body does NOT need extra water to "pick out" nutrients. What an absurd concept.
"You also need to stay away from any sports drinks unless you’ve just had a long workout and then you need to limit yourself. Most atheletes mix Gatorade with water because its two complex for your body to get all the nutrients out of. It needs to be diluted. "
More crap and BS. The science behind Gatorade has been going on for 30 years and there's NO evidence of any "need" to dilute it. It works just fine as-is. Again, your body does NOT need extra water to "pick out" nutrients.

Don't take diet advice from uneducated 19 year olds. It's full of myth and folklore, sadly lacking in truth and science.

Answer 9

Actually, I think Krista gives good advice. What she means with the sugar in fruit juice is there's a hell of a lot of difference between natural fruit juice and Sunny D. Sure, fruit juice has sugars, but they are the natural fructose kind, not 15 spoon-fulls of the processed kind. Opus, you're a douche. You have no sensible counter-arguments to reinforce any of your points.

Like everyone else says, I wouldn't bother with Trimspa or anything like that. Green tea, which is available in pill form, has shown - according to Women's Health magazine- that it can help increase your metabolism. Apart from possibly that, drink water, exercise regularly, and limit caloric intake to between 1,000 and 1,500 calories per day. Of course, abstaining from junk food, candies, and pretty much anything with high fructose corn syrup or sugar in its top 5 ingredients.

Good luck.

Answer 10

To do it Janet Jackson style, I hope you have a lot of money. Personal trainers in LA can be pretty expensive!
