Answer 2

Walk for thirty minutes a day. It can even be broken up in 2 sets of 15 minutes or 3 sets of 10 minutes if you don't have the time. Start off slowly to help build up your stamina. Eventually you will want to step it up a pace to the point where it would be difficult to have a conversation while walking. Get that blood flowing and the heart pumping. Push ups, squats, and crunches will help build muscle that will help you burn more calories. Change your diet. The food you are eating may be keeping you from losing weight, especially foods and beverages with high fructose corn syrip in them. Cleanse your organs that help you eliminate the waste products in your body(liver, bladder, kidney, and colon cleanse). Drink 64 oz of water throughout the day. This will help your body eliminate toxins and waste more efficiently and it will also make you feel full. Remember, what goes in your body should also come out. I started my diet a little over 4 months ago and have lost 38 pounds. I have so much more energy and I feel great. You can try this site. It has alot of information about toxins that enter the body by the foods we eat. It also has some links to sites where you can purchase all natural organ cleansers, vitamins and diet supplements to help you stay healthy and fit. Good luck!

Answer 3

The only way to lose weight is to burn more calories than you consume. Fad diets work for a week or two but then you gain it back with interest.
Cut out junk food. If it comes in a sealed polythene bag with bright colours on the front, it's not for you.
Cut out caffienated drinks which are usuallly associated with cake or biscuits.
Drink plenty of water. A lot of times we interpret thirst as hunger. At least 2 litres a day.
Take the stairs whenever possible instead of the elevator.
Get off the bus a stop or two early, or park farther from your destination.
Walk at least 30 min a day.
Eat more vegetables and fruits, less meat and dairy. (For excellent fruit and veg recipes, check out www.vegweb.com)
No white sugar, no white flour, no white fat.
Cut back on alcohol.
Get plenty of good sleep at night, that will give you more energy during the day.
Sign up for an aerobic-type class, or swimming. It's best to exercise with others so you don't get bored. You can go with a friend, or make friends at the gym.

Answer 4

First, diets do not work!
Secondly, the word lose has a negative affect.
from the time you were born you have associated the word 'lose' with negative feelings. ie- Don't lose the baby's soother..don't lose your mitts, homework, job, husband, car keys etc...etc...etc...

So when you say you want to 'lose' 20 pounds your subconscious says, " Sure and I'll find it again!" and maybe an extra ten just to feel good.

Change your wording and talk of "Taking control of your weight management". You want to remove fat and tone your muscles!
Ask yourself what purpose does the 'fat' serve.
Sometimes we put on weight, comfort food. Sometimes it's a self-defense move.
Do you breathe high or low?
Just by breathing low (through the diaphragm) you will drop 10-15 pounds.
(I have the instructions for breathing properly on another answer under pain-pain management)

Start walking every day. Get an MP3 player and listen to great music and/or a recording of yourself encouraging you to take control. Talking of how good your going to look and feel. How others are going to notice.

Dress warm enough that you will sweat. Carry pure water with you. The more you sweat the more you will drop!
Go by yourself! It's a load of bunk that working out with a group is better. The truth is when you work out with a group and do not achieve at their rate you feel like a total washout.

Scenario: Your a waiter/waitress and your carrying a tray of fifty glasses into a party room. One falls!
What do you do?

The correct answer is continue on!
Same with setting your goal! If you mess up do not let guilt take over. "Disappointment is a fact of life; discouragement is a choice!"
You will succeed!

Answer 7

Cut out all sugar from your diet...that's it. You will start dropping pounds after all the sugar has left your system. I did this and lost 30 pounds...just remember absolutely no sugar and if you must indulge, require yourself to exercise for 2 half hour periods for each serving. Good Luck.

Eat more fruits and vegetables, but stay away from fast foods, unless you want to get one of those salad places, subway would be the best since they have a lot of vegeatables on their subs.
