What is the best way to lose 4 lbs in one month without exercise?

Question

How many calories should i stick to a day , if i want to lose 5 lbs in one month? im 5'3 110 lbs. I dont have access to a gym, so i can only do it by calorie intake.

Answer 1

Don't eat CARBS (rice, pasta and bread) That's enough

Answer 2

5' 3" and 110 lbs? That's not overweight. Are you really fat? Pinch the skin on your love handles. Can you grab skin more than 3/4 inch? That is a measure of whether you really have fat, or whether you're a normal woman.

If you haven't been active before, your body doesn't have much muscle, and that means any excess weight is fat. Even if you're thin, that extra fat can show up as a little pot belly.

You don’t have to go to the gym to get exercise, just start by walking, running, or biking. Work up to 4-5 times a week for 30 minutes. That will build some muscle, helping you burn fat all day long.

Instead of a diet, you might keep a food diary. When you start, don't worry about counting fat or calories, just notice what you are eating. Just seeing it written down can be a surprise - you don't always notice how much you really eat, but you sure notice the extra weight when you wear those tight jeans. Watching what you eat helps you stay focused and eat healthier.

Answer 3

You dont need a gym to workout. take the stairs, walk the long way, jog, do situps, buy a balance ball, watch the yoga and aerobics shows on tv. Move enough and you dont have to worry about what you eat (to an extent).

Answer 4

You could try the South Beach diet, which is similar to a low-carb diet, except that it is more focused on whole foods and good carbs after a low-carb start.

As far as exercize, you don't need a gym. Walking is great exercize, use the stairs, ride a bike, do sit-ups at home...

Answer 5

hey hun....first off if you eat somethin' late at night its ok to eat somethin' light with protien like some tuna fish to help keep your motablism reved up during the night....and you dont have to go to a gym to work out...u have lost 40lbs and never once set foot in a gym...all you need to do is go to walmart and get a set of 4lb 6lb and 8lb dumbells....your upper body weight can be used for your legs like squats and you can use a medum sized bouncy ball between the legs to work your inner thighs...the weights are great for your arms like curls and all other kinda things....the truth is if you wonna loose weight and keep muscle then you need to do some slight weight tranin'...the muscle you gain will take care of the fat you are lookin' to loose....love daisy

The following healthy living recommendations will help you if you’re trying to lose weight, tone up your muscles, have aspirations of building lean muscle mass, are attempting to get a wash board stomach, or just want to feel better:

*1) Burn more calories then you're consuming everyday and measure your results using the following formula: Calories Consumed minus Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) minus Physical Activity minus the Thermic Effect of Food (TEF). A website that explains this formula in more detail and will help you determine how many calories you need to reach or maintain a certain weight is at http://www.primusweb.com/fitnesspartner/library/weight/calsburned.htm

Get a diet and fitness calculator that you can put on your computer or cell phone. This will allow you to easily calculate the above formula, set goals, log your daily calorie consumption, and register your physical activities.

Set realistic goals for your ideal body weight. Here are two websites that will calculate a suggested body weight:
Adults: http://www.halls.md/ideal-weight/body.htm
Teens/Children: http://www.kidshealth.org/kid/exercise/weight/bmi.html

It is difficult and unhealthy to lose more than one or two pounds per week. There are 3,500 calories in a pound. If you eat 500 fewer calories per day for a week you will lose one pound. If you burn through exercise 500 more calories per day for a week you will lose one pound.

*2) Eat natural and organic foods found on earth versus something created by a corporation to make money. Eat meals in small portions throughout the day and take a good multi-vitamin supplement.

Avoid “High Glycemic Load Carbs” (sugar, pastries, desserts, refined starches such as breads, pasta, refined grains like white rice; high starch vegetables such as potatoes) and drink lots of water. Read this article for more information on high GL Carbs:

Do not try fad diets or diet pills. Here is an excellent food pyramid that anyone can follow: http://www.rayandterry.com/html/images/PyramidLRG.gif?osCsid=26a424be471d1337e7c2f105d5c64d9d

*3) Exercise on most days by doing cardiovascular training and/or resistance training activities.

*4) Get plenty of sleep. Sleep experts say most adults need between seven and nine hours of sleep each night for optimum performance, health, and safety.

*5) Educate yourself continually on health issues and make a life long commitment to good health. A great free publication is “Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2005”.
