whats the easiest way to lose 15-20 pounds in 3-4 weeks?

Question

i have no access to a gym or weights but i do have a basketball court near and time to work out for hours

Answer 1

eat properly: try to eat five or six small meals a day and never miss breakfast (that screws up your metabolism)

eat things like egg whites, skinless chicken breasts, tuna for protein, potatoes, rice or pasta for carbs and try to eat five pieces of fruit a day for their vitamin content.

drink plenty of water (not caffeinated drinks or alcohol)

combine your healthy eating with at least one hour a day of exercise and you'll be well on your way to getting the shape you want. (don't get hung up on how much you weigh, muscle weighs more than fat, and it's the fat that you want to get rid of)

good luck

Answer 2

I've lost nine pounds in the last month and I did it just by doing the things they tell you to. Shortcuts don't work. Eat smaller portions, eat regular meals with sensible snacks, get plenty of water, and exercise. I try not to eat anything that is more than 100 calories per serving. Sugarless products are useful for meeting that goal. So are Special K cereal bars. Every day I walk 2 and a half miles on the treadmill, and sometimes as much as five miles on weekends. And I try to treat myself now and then.

Answer 3

Healthy food for weight loss

Is it possible to eat more food and actually lose weight? Absolutely, if you eat more of healthy foods than empty calorie foods (junk food).

Not everyone realizes that you do not have to deprive yourself in order to lose weight. What you have to do is eat more of healthy foods, leaving less room for "bad" foods. If you eat healthy foods - meaning foods high in vitamins and nutrients and are flavorful - you will find that you want less of high calorie or empty calorie foods. Having a variety of foods that you like and want to eat makes it easier to maintain any changes you make to your diet.

When making any changes to the way you eat, do so slowly and don't criticize yourself if your changes take time to become a habit. Study after study has shown that making small changes is what counts. One change at a time will be easier to accomplish and stick with than making a lot of changes all at once. Every little change you make will bring benefits to your health and your waistline.

Here are some changes you can make one at a time that can give you quick weight loss results:


* Eat breakfast
A lot of people skip breakfast. This is a big mistake if you are trying to lose weight. Studies show that those who do not eat breakfast will overeat later in the day. Also, eating breakfast gets your metabolism going, and so whatever is eaten in the morning is metabolized better. If you are not a breakfast eater, try a fruit smoothie or other nutritional shakes.

* Drink water
Try to drink at least 8 glasses of water per day. Ice water is best because it will speed up your metabolism. Water is, of course, calorie free and flushes out fat. And lastly, drinking water about a half hour before eating will curb your hunger and will make it less likely that you will overeat.

* Add vegetables
Adding vegetables to some of your favorite dishes is a good way to get in some extra servings of veggies every day. Some examples are: sauces, soups, omelets, sandwiches, and salads. Of course, vegetables make a great snack by themselves or dipped in low-calorie dressings.

* Try to eat more salads
If you're anything like I used to be, as soon as I heard the word "salad," I would immediately think "boring!" That is until I figured out how creative one can be when making a salad. Try adding new vegetables that you haven't tried before or adding boiled eggs, strips of grilled chicken, cheese, and/or nuts. Keep fresh lettuce and spinach leafs on hand, and remember to go easy on the dressing or make your own healthy salad dressing. A healthy and great tasting dressing is mixed olive oil and lemon juice.

Answer 7

cut your sugars and carbs and increase your protein and exercise... play basketball, jog, walk , run... etc... play dodgeball, kickball, whatever to keep you moving... ride a bike...
your body needs the protein to convert the carbs into fuel, that is why you want to increase your protein intake...
pasta, breads, potatoes and sugars are carbs you need to limit..
tuna, peanutbutter and dried beans and lentils are good sources of protein...
drink lots of water so your body will "flush" out stuff too... and keep you hydrated...
