Question

im just about to turn 17 and my weight is about to hit 200 im 5'7'' and wish to lose my belly and other fatty areas. im not too active and need some good ways to lose my rolls in a comfortable way

Answer 1

Start by eliminating junk foods, fast foods, sodas, candies and other sweets. Start eating 4-6 small (healthy) meals each day--don't forget about fruits and veggies!! Stay away from diet pills because they don't work and can cause a lot of damage to your body. Never starve yourself or skip meals.
Drink a lot of water everyday! It really does help with the weight loss.
Of course, get active! Start out slow at first. Remember, all the little things do add up! Take the steps instead of the elevator, ride your bike to the store instead of driving, jog down the street instead of just walking...ANYTHING! Just get moving and push yourself a little harder each day!

Keep in mind that a healthy weight loss is 1-2 pounds per week.
Good luck!☺

Start out with walking at a moderate speed (4) at a higher incline! Then work into running, and the elliptical is great. It is equivalent to running, but is easier on your knees and legs. Just try to do a cardio workout at least 20-30 minutes. I would start out at maybe 3 times a week, increasing as time goes. Also, do arm weights, leg presses, crunches, push-ups etc. Every little thing helps, once you lose some fat, the actual toning exercises you did will start to show more. It takes some time, dont be intimidated, just think about the goal you want and never give up. Even if you are not feeling totally up to working out, at least put some effort into it, such as walking, or light jogging! Better than nothing!! Good Luck :)

The Trim Advantage system is the best plan I know of.

This kit delivers, with complete support for your first 30 days on the Trim Body System Protein Plus Diet. The kit includes a binder to hold the print materials, which include the Quick Start Guide, a 12-page booklet that introduces you to the plan. It also includes Meal Plan Cards that step you through every meal for 30 days, including shopping tips, meal preparation, supplements, and recipes. Eighteen detailed, full-colour Recipe Cards show you how to fix simple, healthy meals, fast. And a week's worth of 10-minute exercises are described on the Fitness Cards, so you can take your exercise plan with you, wherever you go.

In the kit is a 2-DVD set that features a physician discussing the health effects of being overweight, a fitness expert who introduces you to and coaches you through all the exercises in the 4-3-2-1 Body Training System, and an introduction to the Protein Plus Diet. The kit also includes Nutrilite and Mekiwin weight-loss support supplements and protein powder and Trim Advantage protein bars and meal replacement shake mix.

The Trim Body System is designed to encourage the kinds of changes in lifestyle that may result in lifelong weight loss. Medical authorities recommend a weight loss of no more than 2-3 pounds a week to reduce the health risks associated with more rapid weight loss.

Answer 4

You need to get active!! Walking is a great exercise or riding a bike if you feel intimated by the gym and watch what you eat.

Answer 5

How about yoga or stretch?
