I need a way to lose 20 poundsin 2 months?

Question

I going on a field trip to Catlina Island with my school On November 1.This boy I really like is going.So,I need to find a way to lose 30 pounds.

Answer 1

A pound is about 3500 calories. So do the math between diet and excerise on how you are going to account for 70,000 calories. It can be done but you would be very limited a your daily calorie intake and you would hav to exerise pretty hard. Good Luck!

Answer 2

For a quick answer: jogging or fast walking. Really any aerobic exercise will cause you to burn a lot of energy in a short time and jump-start your metabolism, burning fat 24/7. If you walk make sure you walk fast enough to become short of breath.

Longer answer. Your body uses oxygen the same way a fire does: to release energy from fuel. Breathing heavily means you are using a lot of energy. Once you've conditioned your heart and lungs you'll burn more energy just doing normal things too.

Cut straight sugars out of your diet, so no candy or soft drinks. If you cut things like bread and pasta out you'll lose weight even faster, but that's hard to do.

If you leave 4 or more days between runs you'll lose almost all of the benefit, so run at least every 3 days and every day or two if at all possible. Running every 2 days is far more than twice as good as running every 4 days.

The best I've ever felt in my life was when I took 30 minutes a day to run. That included changing, showering, everything. Find a partner if you can, it makes it a ton easier to keep with it.

Answer 3

First of all, losing weight changes a lot of your chemical and metabolic processes.
To keep yourself healthy and not shock yoru body, you need to lose weight slowly.
Two months is not enough time to shed 20 or 30 pounds.
If this boy is really as cool as you think he is, he will like you no matter what size you are.
Eat right and exercise to lose weight, if you do it naturally and find a diet that you can stay on, you will keep the weight off.

If you try a fad diet the chances of you gaining the weight back are very great.
Starvation is not the answer either.
Exercise and eat healthy foods you cook yourself.
Look at the Food Guide Pyramid for food choices and servings.

Answer 4

I wouldn't tell you not to eat. That's all wrong. You need to eat 6 portion size meals a day. Google a site for the correct way to calculate how many calories a day you need. You want to eat high protein and fiber but low sugar or none. Watch your carb intake also. About 30 to 45 grams per meal is ideal depending on your alotted calorie intake. Cut out the empty carbs like soda, sweets and so forth. You can cheat occasionally but not a lot. Protein is key. Exercise is the next most important thing. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Switch you bread, rice, noodles, etc...to wheat or brown instead of lite or white. Also drink skim milk if you can. If not start out like I did with whole milk. The next time buy 2%, then 1% then skim milk. You can do anything you set your mind to. Good luck sweetie.

Healthy weight loss tips


* Take one pound at a time
Don’t get overwhelmed by how much weight you need to lose. Try to remember that "losing 15 pounds in two weeks" is nothing to celebrate. It is important to realize that the more quickly weight is lost, the more likely the loss is coming from water and muscle, not fat.

Since muscle tissue is critical in keeping our metabolism elevated, losing it actually leads to a decrease in the amount of calories we can each day without gaining weight.

Fat loss is best achieved when weight is lost slowly. Strive for a weight loss of no more than 3-4 pounds per week. One pound of weight is equivalent to 3500 calories.


* Set Reachable Goals
For instance, if you know you need to get more exercise, begin with a manageable goal of, say, walking 10 minutes a day that you know you can achieve. Then build your self-esteem by achieving the small goals you set yourself.

The same logic applies for losing weight.

* Stay off the scales
Don’t get discouraged when your progress seems to be slow according to your bathroom scales. They do not provide a true measure of what is going on with the body.

If exercise levels are adequate (5-7 days a week), you may be putting on muscle but losing fat, thus losing inches even if you are not losing pounds. It's always a good idea to do several body measurements to have a second objective way to monitor progress.

* Stay focused on being healthy, not thin
# Many people become more successful at long term weight loss when their motive changes from wanting to be thinner to wanting to be healthier. Change your mindset to think about selecting foods that will help your body's health rather than worrying about foods that will affect your body's weight. The Food Pyramid offers a basic outline of the types and amounts of food you should eat each day to give your body the nutrients it needs for optimal health.

* Fat Free?
We've known for some time that limiting high fat foods in the diet can be helpful with weight loss. That's because fats pack in 9 calories per gram compared to only 4 calories per gram from proteins or carbohydrates. To many, the message to limit fats implied an endorsement to eat unlimited amounts of fat-free products. Just to clarify, fat-free foods have calories too. In some cases fat-free foods have as many calories as their fat laden counterparts. If you eat more calories than your body uses, you will gain weight. Eating less fat will help you to lose weight. Eating less fat and replacing it with excessive amounts of fat-free products will not.

* Drink plenty of water
Drink eight glasses a day. Water is a natural appetite-suppressant. Nettle tea is a great weight-loss tea as it supports metabolism and has diuretic properties.

* Reward yourself
# Each time you reach a goal, such as losing 5 pounds, reward yourself with a gift or a massage.

* Seek help if you need it
# A big key in long term weight control comes from receiving encouragement and support from others. Find a friend to lose weight with or you can check to see if groups such as Weight Watchers, or eDiets offer programs and resources in your area by clicking the links. You may also wish to check with your local hospital to see if their registered dietician conducts group weight loss programs.

* Watch your portions
With the advent of "supersize" meals and increasingly huge portions at restaurants, our concept of normal serving sizes is a distant memory. Be mindful of the amounts of food you consume at a sitting. When necessary, divide your food in half and ask for a take home bag. It is all too easy to be a "plate cleaner" even when served enormous portions. Learn to pay attention to your hunger level and stop eating when you feel comfortably full, not stuffed.

* Eat your food slowly
Did you ever notice that thin people take an awfully long time to eat their food? Eating slowly is one method that can help take off pounds. That's because from the time you begin eating it takes the brain 20 minutes to start signaling feelings of fullness. Fast eaters often eat beyond their true level of fullness before the 20 minute signal has had a chance to set in. The amount of calories consumed before you begin to feel full can vary significantly depending on how quickly you eat. So slow down, take smaller bites and enjoy your food.
