How to lose more weight healthy and fast?

Question

So far I've lost 60 pounds in about a year. Now I'm trying to lose 15-30 pounds more. It seems to be getting harder to lose the weight...I would like to lose 15 pounds in 3-4 months
I would also like to have more muscle...any ideas on good exercises? Eating tips?

Answer 1

find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours)
5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water
have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
have lean meat (protein) for dinner - repairs muscle
cardio exercise 4-6 times a week for 30-50min, light weight training
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, past etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried, oily.
ofcourse you can spoil yourself once in a while with a little treat:)

Wow! Congrats on your weight loss. You also sound like you have a good goal in mind for healthy weight loss. I don't know what diet changes you used to lost the 60 pounds, but you will want to make sure you have a good healthy diet going. I recommend Body for Life for healthy weight loss as well as good exercises. The website below shows some exercises and how to properly do them along with diets and other things to help you out. I also LOVE exercise videos. They are convenient and can be done at your leisure. I recommend Jeri Love, The Firm (I like the older ones better), Cathe Friedrich, Kathy Smith, , Reebok, Kari Anderson and many others. The second link is a great website to check out many exercise videos. Good luck!

Answer 3

Try eating more negative calories foods

Onions and Garlics
Cucumber
Tomato
Cabbage
Celery
Lettuce
Apricot
Mandarin Orange
Watermelon
Melon

Combine these into a salad that use low fat yoghurt and olive oil as dressing. Consume the salad for dinner and it'll work wonder.

I can't comment on the exercise part since I know nothing about it. Hope this eating tips helps

Losing weight is a simple equation: if you burn more calories than you eat, the weight will come off. Start off by estimating how many calories you burn each day using the calorie calculator http://straighthealth.com/pages/tools/caloriecalclb.html This will give you an idea of how many calories to eat. Healthy weight loss is 1-2 pounds per week. To lose 1 pound per week you need to create a calorie deficit (burn more than you eat) of 500 calories per day. To lose 2 pounds a week, you have to double the deficit to 1000 calories per day. You can achieve this by eating less, exercising more or a combination of both.
