I need to lose about 25 pounds. I am 58 and healthy. What would be the best program for me?

Question

How many calories per day would I need to consume in order to lose the pounds at the rate of 3 pounds per week?

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:)

its healthy to lose 1-2lbs a week. if you lose more it means you are losing water weight and muscle and its comming back.

Answer 2

I wanted to lose weight but I wanted to make sure I was going to do it in a very healthy manor. I didn't want to deprive my body of any nutrition it needed so I did a little researcha nd this program is what I came up with!

Before, I was tired and I got migraines one to two times a week at least. I was also wanting to lose about 20 pounds! After the very first day on the products, my energy skyrocketed, I had more control over my appetite and cravings and I just felt good all over! After being on the products for a while now, I have complete and total control over my appetite and cravings, I have tons of energy, and I have not had but one migraine in the last 3 weeks! The best part is I have lost 13 inches and 10 pounds in the last 3 weeks and I did all of it without being hungry. I feel amazing and I have recommended these products to my personal friends and family. You will feel better and you will be happier because of it! I wish you the best of luck no matter what you decide! If you would like to know more ab;out what I have done then you can check out this site and get a free sample pack to try!!!

Answer 3

The best program for you is what works for you. I have lost 80 lbs on an exchange diet, (very similar to the diabetic diet), depending on your starting weight, it will tell you how many calories you should eat per day. I suggest 1200-1400 calories, you can do that with an exchange diet (some many exchange of protein, mill, all the healthy food groups. Exercise suggestion is whatever interest you. Just remember eat less than now and exercise more. I like walking but you can join an aerobics class or water aerobics or anything that intrests you. Just stop out with small periods of exercise and increase length of time and frequency later.

Answer 4

about 1200-1500 a day. And a little moderate excercise, like a 20 minute walk.
