Answer 1

I applaud you on wanting to become leaner and healthier. But, try this for when the weather is in the teens. Exercise is a natural process that our bodies use to eliminate excess fat. People gain excess weight by either overeating or lack of sufficient exercise. So, on those days, stop and grab your coat and your keys and leave the house. Hurry to do this, but once outside take a leisurely stroll around your block. Then go back home and DON'T SIT DOWN, but do some house cleaning. Continue doing this 1 block jaunt for 1 week. Next week walk 2 blocks at the same leisure pace and go back home and clean some more. By now you should be more intuned to yourself and feeling like you can take on the world. Well, don't. We don't want you to get discouraged and stop walking. Your body will be fine tuning itself as you walk so you may not see immediate results. For your third week take in a block further and go home and do some more cleaning. Do the same for the fourth week as well. Now, here you are at the second month. You should be feeling more energetic. Are you? OK, then let's begin. This time when you go for your walk you will increase it by 2 blocks each week. If you feel pain or are short-winded then stop and go back to your last comfort zone of walking. This is only your body's way of saying that it is not ready for that step so fast. It is not telling you that you can't or never will do it, but just not then. Now go out and buy yourself some good raingear for the days when it is raining cats and dogs. Boots included and cover your nose and mouth as well. Don't let the inclement in the weather get in the way of you having good health. Now that you are walking further you need to go home and start organizing the cabinets and drawers. You are probably one of those people who still watch too much television. If you can't get up the nerve to throw it (idiot box) out, then watch it standing up as you go around and clean house. Oh, and another thing, while you are losing weight your clothes will start to bag and sag. Get rid of them! After all of your hard work you want to flaunt your success. Go out and buy new underwear and outerwear clothing. Don't forget that your feet will have lost weight too, so buy new shoes. Don't overwhelm yourself, though. Buy a piece at a time as you loose weight and get rid of your fat clothes. DO NOT STOP once you are at your ideal weight. Now you have to maintain it, for a lifetime. And always be aware of your surroundings. I can see you now. YOU'RE LOOKING GOOD!

Answer 2

Yes it does. It just cuts calories. If your trying to lose twenty pounds before summer you CAN do it with the special K diet. The atkins diet is quicker though. Doing atkins you could probably lose about 4 pounds a week. Being that summer is about 2-3 months / 10 weeks away, you could lose 40 pounds. More if you exercise. Do atkins for 2 months and then get on a realistic diet such as weight watchers! Ur special k diet will work almost as good but just make sure your dinner is low-calorie, lean, and full of essential vitamins and such. Matter of fact, take centrum vitamins everyday, along with the atkins diet / special k diet, along with exercise you will see your body transform into SEXYYYYY!

Answer 3

I think the special K diet is only intended to be followed for a short time. On average they estimate you could lose anywhere from 1-3 lbs a week, more than likely 1 lb per week. That is just bc you are taking in less calories than your body is burning by eating cereal. Personall, I dont see how it can be healthy in the long run.

Answer 4

Exercise everyday like jogging around the block
Skip meals. Eat 2 times per day than 3 times per day
Dont eat until you're full
Eat fruits at night if your hungry.
Drinks lots of water and stop all the fast food and chocolate.
There are more tips and info.
there's a video on success fitness too.

Answer 5

There are tons of supplements these days that boost energy and metabolism to help burn fat. In my opinion, one of the best is a new supplement called the apple patch. You don't have to consume any tablets or substances, its just a simple patch that you wear under your clothing and natural supplements are absorbed into your skin. Reducing your appetite, boosting you metabolism and energy. A friend of mine lost 20lbs in 3 weeks with little or no exercise just by wearing the damn thing!
