Question

she tries toloose weight so bad but she cant i feel so sorry for her any help

Answer 1

she needs to consider gatric bypass...but only a doctor can help that situation

Answer 2

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!

Answer 3

I'm 98 lbs and I got there bcause i followed these easy guidelines that are very healthy for you.

First and Best Way: Excersize!!!!!!!!!!! You need to excersize atleast 1 hour a day and I would say Running/Jogging is the best way to go about it. But personally, I hate that so I do jumping jacks, skip rope, rollerskate, and run up-and-down my stairs. Any type of rigorous, systematic movement can be considered excersize

Second Way: Reduce your intake of highly saturated fats! Stop eating those artery-clogging french fries, chicken wings, etc. It's okay to eat them once a week but don't pig out on them. If you normally order a Large Fries, then order Medium one next time.

Third Way: Reduce your intake of Meat Products. That way, you save animals and help benefit your health. It's true that meat has protein and iron, but you can get iron supplements and protein from vegeterian food. I'm not saying you should have a vegeterian diet from now on (even tho I am a vegeterian); I'm just saying you should reduce your intake of meat. So if you eat meat everyday, cut it down to three days a week.

Fourth Way: Eat your fruits and vegetables. I eat three fruits and three vegetables everyday and I think that has worked for me pretty well (I'm 98 pounds ..n no I'm not anoerexic (did I spell that right?)) Anyways, urge your parents to buy more fruit and veggies and include them in your dinner. Even if you don't want to eat as many fruits and veggies as I do, you should atleast have two fruits and two veggies in your diet EACH day. There is good vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, water, and other stuff in there that helps you lose weight.

Fifth Way: Water is a natural appetite suppressant, so developing a good water drinking habit can be a long-term aid in achieving and maintaining a healthy weight. Doctor F. Batmanghelidj MD, author of "Your Body's Many Cries For Water" says most times your “hunger” is your body asking for water – not food. It's also important to remember that when the body is dehydrated, fat cells get "rubbery" and cannot be easily metabolized. This means that it's harder to lose when you don't drink your water.

Sixth Way: Drink lukewarm water with two table spoons of honey daily (easy way out and fast)

Seventh Way: One-Two table spoons of vinegar (also the easy way out and fast)

Anyways, those were a few options that you can try simultaneously (which is what I recommend) or one-by-one. You take care of urself and good luck with that!

good luck :)

Answer 4

find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter your stats, take 300-400 calories off that number and that's how much you need to lose weight.
5-8servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water a day
5-6 small meals instead of 3 big ones (breakfast is the most important - make sure to get complex carbs like whole wheat bread, oatmeal, fruit etc)
4-6 times a week cardio for 30-50min, light weight training, many reps
no junk food, no sodas, no alcohol, no white flour (cakes, cookies, white bread, pasta etc.), nothing high in sugar (ice cream)

it helps a lot if a whole family changes eating habits and starts excercising

Answer 5

Already answered your last question about losing weight. She may be cutting her food too much, or still eating the wrong things and/or not getting enough exercise.
1,200 calories a day. 1 hour of brisk walking everyday. And she should be eating vegetables, lean meats/protein, whole grains and fruit. In that order. No food rewards. You know, if she loses 10 lbs., no celebrating with junk/fast/crap food.

Answer 6

She can if she tries. She needs to diet and excercise.
Don't let her eat anything that is fatty. No sodas, no juices.
Non fat milk.
Avoid anything that deeply relies on sugar.
Use artificial sweetners to replace any sugar.
Excercise as much as she can on her free time.
Take a walk, job, play sports like basketball or tennis. Anything really as long as she's moving.
Trust me, it will help as long as she has the will to achieve her goal. She's only 14 and she has the time, she can do it.

Answer 7

Get her to drink 1 cup of water before meals, that way it will fill her up and she'll eat a smaller meal. Different people digest food differently, her body is changing i'm sure she'll grow out of it. Don't let her take diet pills or do crash diets, its really bad for you!

Answer 8

is she a compulsive eater? if so then she rly needs some kind of councilor. im 13, 5'5" and am a compulsive eater. even tho i weigh 170, my doctor says that since im so strong it rly isnt that much of problem. what i suggest 2 her is that she join a swim team. and swim and swim and swim. works 4 me. she just needs 2 keep a healthy diet: whole grains, vegetables, fruits, protein etc.
tell her good luck 4 me!

Answer 9

I also feel sorry 4 her 2& she could try 2 eat healthy foods and go exerzizes

Answer 10

Try a vitamin b12 shot I heard this helps with energy and motivation. This may motivate her to exercise. Also, are there any options for surgery? Write to one of those makeover shows and they may be willing to help.

Answer 11

Just go on walks with her. Eventually, go on jogs. They're really good cardio workouts. If you want, you can even buy DDR (Dance Dance Revolution). That thing works too.
