Answer 1

easiest way is to increase your exercise

do at least 45 min of some exercise every day

then good nutrition

3 main meal and 2 small meals a day

in the main meals have a hand palm sized amount of low fat protein and two palms of veges - plus 2 glasses of water

in the snacks 1/2 palm protein and 1 palm of fruit and veges plus 1 glass of water

cut out sweets, chips, soda etc and you should see some results in about 3 weeks

Answer 2

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. 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. Don’t think that sports drinks can replace water, the only time you need to drink them right after a workout, besides that just stick with water. 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.

Krista says: "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. "

ROTFLMAO!!
There's no proof that anyone needs that much water. NONE. Just folklore, urban myth, old wives' tale. (See references) And the belief that "it helps your body pick out the nutrients" is just plain unfounded. Your body does a fine job "picking out" nutrients with or without excess fluids.

Bottom line: Drink when you're thirsty. Period. Do not obsess over or worry about getting some arbitrary amount of water as a daily "goal". You already get most of the water your body needs from the food you consume. The rest of Krista's advice is reasonable. But she's got some crazy ideas about physiology.

Answer 4

Not sure when the cruise is, but I lost 95 lbs in 8 months using aplan called Shapeworks. I have kept the weight off for over 4 years now. Here is a good website to check out: www.loseweightnow.com/tfward

Answer 5

Fasting, (juice fasts for 7 to 14 days are just fine)

(also lemon/clean water/cayenne/stevia fasting for 7 to 14 days is also ok)

People do this sort of thing all the time and for longer periods of time without doing any damage to the body. Its called giving you, your GI tract and metabolism a 'break'. Its very normal and people in religions of all kinds do it frequently.

What to do at the end of this fasting period? Reintroduce juice, then slowly in this order: fruits, vegetables, pre-refrigerated acidophilus capsules (not yogurt- it causes irritation), small amounts of tuna, beans (no salt, msg or sugar), then brown rice, then Kashi Go Lean breakfast cereal (it has lots of fiber) and take fish oil or flax oil supplement - you need the omega 3.

From your diet and from now on: eliminate all saturated fat, margarine, alcohol, dairy, sugar, red meat (this causes intestinal sluggishness and causes most ailments), salad dressings (the rancid omega 6's causes problems instead have organic olive oil).

Quit smoking and here's something to help you: http://www.shopnatural.com/html/21743.htm

I wish you the best of health. Make this a lasting health journey as a promise to yourself.

Answer 6

First you need to exercise at least 5 days a week.

You need to cut back on your calories, eliminate refined sugars and white flour from your diet.

Increase your fruit and veggie intake. Choose lean meat (chicken, turkey) over red meat.

Only eat when you are truly hungry, not head hunger. When your head is telling you you are hungry drink water or find an activity to get your mind of off food.

Cut out caffeine and alcohol.
