im on a diet...?

Question

im currently 135pds, i thought i lost 1 or 2 pounds the other night but seemed to go back up to 135 last night, it seems like ive been on it for maybe a month and i only lost 5 pounds from 140pds altogether, does this seem right?

Answer 1

your weight normally varies from 1-3 pounds daily, sometimes morning to night. you should only weigh once a week (or less if possible). this depends on many things... especially food intake, and the opposite of that. :) healthily you should only lose 1-2 pounds a week... anything more than that is not healthy. so you are doing really well. keep up the good work.

Answer 2

Yep that does seem right. Remember, you weigh less in the morning before you eat anything. At the end of the day you weigh more. Keep up the great work. If you incorporate exercise into your diet plan, you will lose weight very fast. Doctors say it is healthy to lose between 1 to 2 pounds a week so you are righ ton track. Good luck!

Answer 3

That is a good rate for weight loss, but are you sure you need to lose weight? 135 seems pretty healthy for the average woman. Also, don't weigh yourself every day because fluctuations occur depending on how much water you've drank, when you ate last, and how long ago you went to the bathroom.

Answer 4

You can't be weighing yourself every day! I recommend weighing yourself once a week at the same time. Cut out whites(sugar, flour, pasta, salt, rice) ....eat whole wheat instead. Cut out all junk food* Eat 6 small meals per day every 2-3hrs...Fresh fruits, veggies, chicken, fish, 8 glasses of water per day) Walk...exercise 1/2hr per day (you can workout 10min in morning, 10min in afternoon and 10min at night*). This is a Healthy way to lose weight and to keep it off. The normal weight loss should be about 2lbs per week. It does take time but hang in there. You'll be pleased with your results if you stick to it and dont get discouraged*~

Answer 5

Diets do not work. 99% of people gain the weight back. No one teaches the animal what to eat and what not to eat. He knows instinctively what to eat. Humans also have the same instinct. The way it works is just eat whatever tastes good and that will be healthy for you and non-fattening. That is why a baby tastes everything. So again whatever tastes good, is good for you. This is why you will spit out spoiled milk.

But wait!!! Man has the technology to create rat poison. It tastes like healthy food (good taste) but kills the rat. So man has done that to you. Note-- any food unaltered by man (uncooked) that tastes good, is good for you. So if you are stranded in the woods, that is how you know what to eat (cooking changes that). So man has created fake fruit. It tastes like fruit that exists in nature but it is terrrible for health, addictive and fattening called sweets.

So it is natural to like real sweets called fruit, like a baby does, but they have fooled you just like the rat. But they do not want to kill you. They want you to become obese so you will buy lots of their foods. This is called GOOD BUSINESS. Learn how to nourish your body thin, instead of starving your body fat. See site below.
