Question

This is how my week goes:

tues thursday i go to college from 8-2 and then work 3-11

I my problem is usually i can start jogging and i will lose it in no time and not even have to change my diet but now i do not have time to go jogging. I am willing to change my diet but i just dont know how or what to do

I am trying to find a good way to lose weight. i thought about trying to do exercises when the kids are napping but I do not know where to begin with this.

Answer 1

Exercise with the kids also, try out www.beachbody.com. If you don't have the time to exercise at home take the kids out for a walk in a double stroller, you'll drop the weight fast. But if exercising can't be done yet, I would say change your eating. You can start by eating 5 small meals a day. This will increase your metabolism.

Breakfast: 1/2 cup of oatmeal try to omit salt(it helps us to retain water) change milk to 1% or soy and try some sugar in the raw in place of white sugar. Omit your breads because its fatting and try some EVO(extra virgin olive oil)" in place of the margerine.

Sometime for breakfast I have a milk shake made with
1/2 cup vanilla soy milk
4-5 frozen strawberries
1 banana
ice
Experiment with the milk (use more if you have to), and fruit.
I tried to ues regular whole milk and I didn't like it at all, and I love whole milk!!

Lunch: you can have tuna with lettice and tomatoes or a turkey burger and make some honey mustard using regular mustard and a pack of honey. I don't think mustard has calories.

Dinner: You can have baked or broiled chicken with fresh greens and a small sweet potatoe.

Snack: Eat some nuts. All natural almonds, or try some fruit like apples, pinnapples or grapes.

Also drink plenty of water. If you don't think you can, try a no sugar drink. I can't remember what the name is but it's good and only 5 cal.

Hope this helps, good luck!!

Answer 2

Eat less & excercise more. Eat the right foods and in well balanced proprtions. Eat a variety of fresh fruits & vegatbles. Drink fluids, esp adequate water consumption. Get the required amount of rest..it is critical to diet, health & weight loss. Avoid junk food. Keep a diary of what you eat, how much you eat and how you feel when you eat. Identify why you eat and avoid stress eating. Never eat on the run. Eat sitting at a table and not in front of the TV. Dish out the proper proportions and do not eat seconds. Think about and enjoy the food while you eat it. Drink water with your meals. Focus on health & fitness and not the number on the scale.

Answer 3

You'll achieve your goal of losing weight thru a well balanced diet (80% alkaline foods meaning fruits/vegetables and 20% acidic foods daily), regular exercise (three/four times weekly 30 minutes each), and drinking 8 glasses of water daily. However, I'll go one step further to show you the best and safest way to lose weight so that your entire system will achieve a balanced pH and not be depleted of the essential minerals that it needs. Here's why.
As the typical American diet is mainly acidic, except for most fruits and vegetables, it is close to impossible for our body to attain the alkaline levels that spells good health without the proper nutrients. This being the case, it is very difficult to lose weight unless you monitor closely your body's pH. Let me explain.
An acid pH has considerable influence over the majority of weight problems, including Diabetes and Obesity. It seems that a habitually acid pH can directly cause immediate weight gain. Here's what happens when a system is too acid. A condition known as Insulin Sensitivity or Syndrome X results, which forces too much insulin to be produced, and the body is flooded with insulin so that it won't waste any calories, it diligently converts every calorie it can into fat.
It is thought that an acid pH immediately signals the powerful genetic response to an impending famine, directly interacting with the all important and very sensitive, Insulin- Glucagons Axis. This makes the body produce more insulin than usual, and in turn, produce more fat and store it. In general, the more insulin is available to the body, the higher the probability that fat will be produced and stored, rather than used and burned as energy.
Thus, an acid pH will probably alert the genetic response to famine, directing more insulin to be produced and storing more fat than usual. Conversely, a healthy, slightly alkaline pH, will be more likely to yield normal fat burning metabolic activity, making no demands on the body to overly produce insulin and make fat, allowing fat-weight to be burned and naturally lost. And, with a healthy pH, there's less likely to be any yo-yo effect, or rebounding from a diet with additional weight gain. As long as nutritional stores are maintained, a healthy, slightly alkaline pH allows fat to burn normally for energy, rather than being hoarded under the mistaken biochemical belief of an impending famine.
The best way, though, to drink 8 glass of water daily is to mix it with Xtreme X2O, a natural and organic, coral calcium with 70 trace minerals, which transforms the pH of the water beverage to 9.9 (highly alkaline)!
You may ask why not just drink plain water? The answer is: When you drink lots of water, all of 8 glasses daily, it does not have the essential minerals (calcium, magnesium with 70 trace minerals) that your body needs to elevate its pH and therefore, alkalize your body as the pH of plain water is rather low and very acidic (pH < 7.0). "Alkalinity" equals Oxygen and Oxygen = Good Health.

If you would like to know what your pH level is, let me know.

Thanks.
