If I have a huge gutt, what foods should I eat and what to avoid ?

Answer 1

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 400-600cal 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 (have lots of veggies to eat in between meals if you are still hungry)
8 glasses of water -carry bottle of water with you and when you feel hungry drink it - we often confuse hunger with thirst (our bodies confuse it)
have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
have protein (lean meat, legumes etc) for dinner - repairs muscle
cardio is the only fat burning exercise and burns fat all over your body (running, jogging, swimming, spinning, elliptical etc) 4-6 times a week for average of 45min, light weight training a few times a week (more muscle=faster metabolism)
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, pasta etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, ice cream, candy etc) and nothing fried, oily.
of course you can spoil yourself once in a while with a little treat:)

Answer 2

Eating right is only PART of the answer. Exercise is key. Crunches, situps, swimming, anything that helps you burn off the calories.

Stick with healthy food: pasta, grains, fruits & veggies. You have to learn to burn more calories.

Also, try not to be a couch potato. Keep busy.

Answer 3

I'm always dieting. it's part of my life, which is sad. but it keeps me thin, or at least nearly thin. Buy these snacks for the house in your supermarket:

Light-n-fit YOGURT (only 60 calories!!!)
90 calorie chocolate drizzle rice cake packages
regular big rice cakes (50 calories each)
LOW FAT vanilla soy milk (70 calories per cup)
Fiberone cereal (60 calories per half a cup)
Fruit, frut, fruit.......veggies, veggies, veggies...
individual UNSWEETENED apple sauces (50 calories each)
nonfat milk
---you can take the milk and fruit and yogurt and blend with ice to make SMOOTHIES
rice vinegar for salad dressing (like no calories)
bananas---freeze them!!
Diet Cranberry Juice in non-refridgerated section of market (5 calories per cup)
Diet Hot Coco by swissmiss (25 calories per serving!)
Splenda---add to hot coco, cereals, fruits, smoothies
Iced coffee/tea unsweetened

always take your multi-vitamin daily!!! :-)



monitor how many snacks you eat per day. dont go overboard. limit yourself to ONE rice cake package, or one yogurt...etc. though, have as much fruit and veggies. they give you good stuff, like vitamins. Always have balanced meals: veggies, meat/protein source, calcium (lowest fattening cheeses are Munster cheese & Skim mozzerella cheese btw...but still LIMIT)


oh, stay away from fried foods. high carb foods: white bread, pasta. Cold cuts, unless it's turkey. Peanut butter-->such high calories! ummm...no desserts, but i'm sure you know that.
