How can I lose 40 lbs and keep it off, the weight is in my gut area and thighs?

Answer 1

The quickest way is to cut out red meats, starches, breads, sugars, alcohal, and sodas.

Eat veggies (salads are good), soups, and drink TONS of water. If you get hungry between a meal, drink water to fill up.

In moderation eat white meats, and fruits (fruits contain natural sugars, and that can put on weight)

Practice portion control. Yes, you'll feel hungry at first, but think of your goal, and soon your stomach will start shrinking and you won't have that feeling anymore.

Eat 5 times a day. A small breakfast. A mid-morning snack, such as an apple. A small lunch. A mid-afternoon snack, such as carrots. A lite dinner. Do not eat any later than 7pm (6pm is better.)

Go exercise for at least an hour a day, incorporating weight training. Weight training builds muscle. Muscle burns fat. You get the idea.

Good luck!!

Diet (eat 5 to 6 healthy small meals a days and drink lots and lots of water , cut out sugar foods and drinks completely) and Excercise is a must!!!

Answer 5

Six small meals a day. As many fruit's as you can stand in between. And most importantly...never fill up again. It really works. And if you want to exercise then just a few squats and crunches a day a couple times a day will make a world of difference. Just try it for a week. I sit in a chair most of the day for work and lost 20 in a couple of months.

Answer 7

It's pretty tough to do with limited knowledge. I recommend reading a nutrition book, because no matter how much you exercise if you make poor eating choices you won't get the results you desire. A good book to read is The Food Connection by Sam Graci.

Answer 8

Run/jog 2-3 miles 4 times a week. Eat low-fat foods and drink plenty of H2O.
