Answer 1

I lost 105 pounds in 6 months. Here is how I did it.
1. Every morning get up and walk for 45 minutes. You can start with less time, but you want to get up to 45 minutes, and it must be fast walk. You want your heart rate to go up. It must be in the morning, it kick starts your metabolism.
2. I cut out Red Meat, and fatty foods. Boneless skinnless chicken breast, baked, or grilled, rice and vegetables (steamed).
3. Eat half. Just eat half of what you normally eat. Put 1/2 on your plate, and put the rest away. Cook less. When you go to fast food, get salads only. Or grilled chicken. No fries, only diet soda. Or water.

It will work, once you get into a routine, you will get hooked on the results, and you will keep the routine. It has been over a year for me.

Also start counting your calories. Write them down. You would be amazed as to how much more aware you are of your caloric intake, if you actually write it down. We recently discovered a site that offers a great program that counts calories, as well as keeps track of everything. It allows multiple users, so everyone in the family can keep track. They offer a free 7 day trial, and so far I am very impressed with the product. Try the 7 days and see. It allows you to add the exercise that you do during the day, which increases the amount of calories you can take in. Very Cool!!

Stay motivated, and get up and walk every day. I seriously lost all my weight starting off my day on my walk.

Good LUCK!

1. 80% of ab training is dependant on diet, the other 15-19% is based on training of the body. Do heavy, heavy weighlifting with compound excercises and truely bust your butt in the gym. If you are going to run, run windsprints. That other 1-5% is your direct ab training. Your abdominal muscles don't get a whole lot bigger (your only goal in ab training), and 95-99% of results are generated by losing bodyfat while maintaining muscle.
2. Control your diet. Eat healthy foods, smaller portions, and aim for slightly more protein and slightly less proccessed carbohydrates.
3. Drink as much water as possible: it aids in digestion, fullness, and fat burning (a dehydrated body will not be able to used break down fat and use it as energy)
4. Avoid continuous sitting; move around as often as possible.
5. Do abdominal exercises, such as sit-ups, crunches, and corelifts such as front squats, deadlifts, and other lifts that you normally associate with competitive bodybuilders
6. remember, the only thing that doing abdominal excersices does, is build abdominal muscle. There is no lower, middle, or upper abs: the visible portion is all one muscle.

Answer 3

I've tried many diets and couldn't make anything work. Since having my first child, I've been carrying around an extra 30 pounds. This diet just made sense and showed me that everything I was doing before was wrong and a waste of my time.

The plan was so refreshing and so simple to follow. I did everything plan said and lost 23 pounds in the first three weeks. I'm now starting the diet again to lose 7 more pounds. This plan has changed my life.

Answer 4

ok, First you should start doing cardiovascular exersize along with healthy eating, this is the way you are guarentted to burn fat. Some cardiovascular exersizes are cycling, running, rowing, cross trainer and so on. And just a little hint as I noticed somebody had said this in their answer, doing sit ups does NOT burn the fat off your stomach wat so ever, no matter how many crunches, sit ups etc you do you wont see any results until the fat is gone. That is when you can start 'toning up' Hope this helps.
