Do you find losing weight difficult?

Answer 1

Yes. My weight fluctuates all the time whether I diet or not. It all depends on my time of the month i think. I can eat loads of crap for a couple of weeks and lose weight and then eat healthily i can put it on. There just doesn't seem to be any logic to it. I think i retain water or something

Answer 2

My ideas? Try to do 200 minutes of cardio a week. Remember fat does not turn into muscle, so you need to lose your fat while putting on muscle. Work hard, but don't over 60 minutes at a time. Do planks and other abs exercises on alternate days.

On training days, do 5-10 minutes of cardio to warm up, then do your weight training. Do 30 to 60 minutes more of cardio, then go home.

The best time to eat is just after your workout within an hour when your metabolism is raging. For your muscles, incorporate some isolated soy protein or whey protein. Whey is more potent but the soy tastes better!

Don't look at your scale as the be all and end all, but get a measuring tape to check your progress, and that will show more tangible results.

Read magazines like Shape, Womens Fitness, Fitness, etc to get tips and to stay motivated.

Good luck and stick at it. This plan has lost me 20 lbs in 12 weeks so far, just go for it!

Answer 3

Losing weight is not difficult if you can find a diet that suits you and isn't like a punishment. It is keeping it off that is the problem. A diet is for life, not just for after Christmas!
And it definitely gets harder as you get older.

Answer 4

yes and no

maybe

dont know

yes , like really at the moment Im unemployed so no walk or activity , but I went college and there was an everyday walk like about 30 mins walk there and around the building ,so you could imagine the fat being always burned and I was very slim, I ve put on a bit weight which I dont like at all, but if I had again an activity day to day, I lose weight just like that , so im planning on walking everyday and just eating to a minium because Im not really doing so much

Answer 5

Losing weight can be easy. Keeping it off and making the right decisions when it comes to food is whats hard for me.

Answer 6

Yes I have no weight to lose, I find it impossible to take any more off

Answer 7

There was a time when i could eat anything and not put on weight, but now i'm older i only have to look at a cake and i go up a dress size.

Answer 8

Yes, I do. People say that we make time for what is important to us, but I find it hard to find time to exercise. I also take a medication that makes it harder to lose weight.

Answer 9

Yes, but I can do it if I actually think about it. I have to stop eating before I am full, and never eat late. Easy to do, but hard to achieve unless you make weight loss a priority,, which we don't usually do.

Answer 10

I found it terribly difficult until I discovered the Cambridge Diet. It's the diet and behavior modification plan that best worked for me and still fit my crazy-low budget.
