My friend is in dire need of weight loss, she doesn't have much energy and can't afford to buy weight loss products, like gnc, or trima spa, etc. She won't see a Doctor no matter how many times I bug her. She can't exercise in her apartment cause she lives on the second floor, so she don't want to make any noise. No treadmill or exercise bike. She eat's ok, salad twice a day and dinner she just pigs out. And always eating snacks. I don't know what to do to help her, I've tried almost every outdoor and indoor exercise. Biking, walking, situps etc. She has problems getting off the floor, she's a big girl. I would like to honestly help her cause I am her only friend really, I tried to get her in exercise classes but she's just a big girl and she's self conscience so she won't do it. I just want to help her, I know hard work lie's ahead but I need simple easy non stressing exercise's and easy workout plans any help is surley appericated, in acheiving her weight loss.

Cleansing is the best way to lose weight in my book, and you are not putting a bunch of harmful chemicals in you. It actually gets rid of all that
I would for sure look at that site……

Sounds like maybe if you do fun thing that require working out like walks on the beach,festivals,swimming these should help.Also try some of these quick diet tips.
I once weighed 327lbs and I had gastric bypass. the thigs that I learned while in recovery from the surgery would be beneficial to anyone trying to loose weight. I wish I had known about them BEFORE the surgery!!
1) Eat more protein (meats, beans, soy products or soy fortfied drinks)
2)Eat less carbs (bread, pasta, potatoes,corn)
3) Drink at least 12 glasses of water a day (this will flush the food through your system faster and help you digest food quicker)
4)Drink hot liquids with your meals because hot grease doesnt solidify as quickly and you can pass it faster
5)put fork down between bites and chew slowly(helps digestion; food that is chewed thouroughly is sent throught the body quicker)
6) Increase calcium intake (calcium chewables VIACTIVE) calcium speeds weight loss
7) B12 is important that it will help you feel more awake and alive and give you natural energy without speding up your heart.
Hope these help!

Here is some info I got of a site (listed in the sources)
"You are overweight for the most simple of reasons -- because you're eating the wrong foods, the wrong types of calories per meal, and you're also eating meals in the wrong patterns each day.
Think closely about what we're about to tell you, since it's going to change the way you think about dieting...
FOOD is more powerful than any prescription weight loss pills, because the FOOD that you eat can either make you THIN or FAT. You don't get fat because of a lack of exercising, that's a myth. You get fat because you don't eat the right foods at the right intervals each day.
Also, the pattern that you choose to eat your meals each day is more powerful than any prescription weight loss pills. This is true because your body is like an "engine" and it only needs certain foods at certain intervals each day, and if you don't eat the right foods at the right times then it won't burn those calories -- and you'll wind up storing those calories as fat tissue. (Hint: You need to eat more than 3 times per day to lose weight, but we'll show you the details later).
You have gotten overweight by eating the wrong foods, that much is a fact. And guess what? You can get SLIM by eating the RIGHT FOODS at the RIGHT INTERVALS each day.
It's not really any more complicated than that, and the way to start losing weight has nothing to do with starving yourself or jogging."

Sounds like she physically can't exercise because she is too big so let's start with the diet. I follow the south beach eating plan and have lost 38 lbs so far. Get the book and have her read it, or read it together so you both understand how food affects her body. I still lost weight without exercise, although slower than I would have if I had exercised right from the beginning. I think once she sees the eating plan working and starts to lose weight, that will motivate her to keep going and to start moving. Good Luck, you sound like a good friend.

One of the easiest and least expensive way to start losing weight is walking. Start off slow maybe 15 minutes a day or less even and gradually work your way up to at least 30 to an hour a day. It doesn't cost a thing and there is always somewhere to walk. Good luck to your friend.

find daily calorie intake 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 - it optimizes your metabolism)
5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water
have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
have protein (lean meat, legumes etc) for dinner - repairs muscle
cardio exercise 4-6 times a week for 30-50min (ideally 45min because the first 20-30min body burns carbs and only then starts burning fat), light weight training (more muscle=faster metabolism)
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, pasta 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:)

Hi,
you could help your friend with giving her following resources which will cost her nothing.
First she needs proper eating, the only way to speed up her metabolism is to start eating more, but only good fatbutning foods.
This diet is balanced, healthy and she will receive all nutrients that are important to sustain life http://100abdominalexercises.com/fast_weight_loss_diet_plan.aspx
After the above 1 week diet plan, try this enhanced cabbage soup diet (it is not the ordenary cabbage soup diet) http://www.quick-weight-loss-programs.com/7-day-cabbage-soup-diet.html
The good in both above diets is that there is explanation why she eats exactly these kinds of foods and why this is good for her.
At the end, here is site with free workout videos that she can make at home without causing any noise, believe me she will be the most silent girl :) http://www.women-workout-routines.com/free-workout-routines.html
Wish you to succeed to convince your friend to start healthy eating and home exercises.
All the best,
Rumi
