seriously how do i lose weight fast and like 50 pounds is how much overweight i am my doctor says so so how???

Answer 1

First and foremost, do not "diet". Instead, change your eating habits. Learn to read labels. My husband suffered a ministroke in August. He weighed 214 and was told by his doctor to drop his weight to 170. Right now, he weighs 164 and his doctor is proud of him. He did not try any fad diets, nor did he use diet pills. He takes a multivitamin pill each day to help but the most important part is to rethink what and how you eat. Fruits, Vegetables are your best friends. Limit your salt intake as it will not only help you with possible blood pressure problems in the future, but will also cut out a few pounds in water weight. Eat lean meat, poultry, fish and seafood in moderation. Limit bread intake and the same goes for sweets. READ LABELS!!! That is what they are there for. To guide you to better nutrition, make an appointment with a nutritionist to help you find the right caloric intake for you and to make sure you are losing weight in a healthy manner. If you don't reach your goal in the time limit given to you by your doctor, do not be discouraged. Crash diets and starvation or eating disorders are far worse. If you lose weight slowy but steadily, you will have a much better chance of keeping it off. I have my own health concerns and have lost 25 pounds in two years. I was not trying to lose weight at first, just made to see that I had to eat better. A year later, I found I had to control my salt intake and have since been limited to 2g or less a day. I have learned to manage at 1.5g or less.
One trick my husband and I both have is to find one thing that can be a "treat". For me, since I am not on a caloric restriction, but a sodium one is Dove dark chocolate. For my husband, it is blue bunny no fat, no sugar icecream. It all comes down to finding what is right for you and only you, your doctor and a nutritionist can find that happy medium.
(P.S. although I can't eat out much, you can still eat out in fast food restaurants...most have nutritional listings on their websites and from there, you can choose what is right for you. Don't be afraid to ask to substitute...after all, a baked potato at Wendy's is better for you then french fries and a side salad is even better.)

Answer 2

1. Take Alli diet pills 3 times a day.

2. Eat a small meal for breakfast.

3. Eat a medium lunch.

4. Have no other meals.

5. Do not drink anything that contains calories.

6. Drink a cup of Slim Tea each day.

7. Take a multi-vitamin each day.

Print out this information, do everything on the list with no cheating. It takes time, but in 4-5 months from now you will be slim. Continue this diet, it's more a way of life than it is a loose weight in two weeks diet. You may add a third meal once or twice a week, but make sure it is light.

Also, look up the 'Rice Diet Journal', it is the 1980's Duke University weight loss plan. And read any other diet books you can get your hands on. Never stop learning. ;)

Answer 3

i weighed 252 and went on a low carb diet and lost 110 pounds in 10 months. So I always turn to a low carb diet to lose weight.

I basically told myself - I'm just going to pretend I'm already a diabetic and eat the way they have to. (which is low carb if you look at the recommended diet for diabetics)

but be careful. You need to eat at least 1500 cals per day even tho you are doing low carb. Edit


Starvation mode is certainly real. I accidently put myself into starvation mode and let me tell you - it isn't fun.

It is really referred to as "low t3 syndrome" or "diet induced hypothyriodism" and can be proven with Free T3 and Reverse T3 tests. It shows that the body is now functioning in energy saving mode.

I literally didn't know what was wrong with me. I was doing everything "right". I was on a low carb diet and burning fat for energy - ketones in my urine proved that - and I was exercising on my eliptical trainer everyday and yet every damn day I weighed the same. It made NO LOGICAL sense. I even entertained the idea that maybe my scale was broken.

Flash forward to an emergency room visit (because of shortness of breath) and a visit to a cardiologist for a exercise stress test because my heart rate was only 53 resting ...

Just to find out I was hypothyroid (due to diet).

Anyway - I would definitely try to keep your calorie intake around 1500 per day. I lost over 100 pounds on a low carb diet much like atkins - and then I started to gain weight. Tried to lose it again and this is what happened to me. My body is so used to "starvation mode" that it just switches gears like it was a light switch.

So - even on a calorie deficite - you will lose weight but sooner or later you will hit that wall that can't be crossed unless you starve yourself even further.

I'm still overweight (way better than weighing 252) and I'm stuck because of low t3 syndrome. My doctor gave me t3 supplements but they give me hot flashes. I forgot to mention that in addition to having a low resting heart rate I was always very very cold and exhausted all the time. Most days I felt like I must be dying of some awful disease that my doctors haven't caught onto yet.

If you ever want to ask me anything specific you can always click on my avatar. I think I have it set so anyone can send me messages.

Answer 4

Cardio~get a good sweat going, and then atleast another 20 minutes after. (You don't even start burning fat until atleast 20 minutes into the workout). Drink alot of water, it's healthy, and will make you feel full longer. Eat lean protein, cut your carbs, no soda. Try 5 small, healthy meals spread out so you stay fuller longer, and train your metabolism to work faster to digest. Add fiber to your diets, even if your just mixing Benefiber in your coffee, etc. You need it, it will help! The only way you can lose weight is to cut caloric intake, train yourself so you learn a healthy eating style and won't just gain it back, and excercise!

Answer 5

First of all, dont obsess about it, and whatever you do, DONT starve yourself, or stop eating!!! You can actually make yourself gain weight by not eating, because any little thing you put in yourself, your body will save.
Second, eat right.
Eating some grapes, peaches, strawberries, or mango, is natually sweet, nutritious, and better for you than a candy bar.For one, bite size snickers, you would have to walk four miles to burn of all the calories you consumed in that little devil. But remember, that it isnt bad to have a little extra sugar, as long as it is in small portions, and you are doing everything the right way. I got this from webMD health and diet:
"Fortified, enriched, added, extra, and plus. This means nutrients such as minerals and fiber have been removed and vitamins added in processing. Look for 100% whole-wheat bread, and high-fiber, low-sugar cereals.
Fruit drink. This means there's probably little or no real fruit and a lot of sugar. Instead look for products that say "100% Fruit Juice."
Made with wheat, rye, or multigrains. These products have very little whole grain. Look for the word "whole" before the grain to ensure that you're getting a 100% whole-grain product.
Natural. The manufacturer started with a natural source, but once it's processed the food may not resemble anything natural. Look for "100% All Natural" and "No Preservatives."
Organically grown, pesticide-free, or no artificial ingredients. Trust only labels that say "Certified Organically Grown."
Sugar-free or fat-free. Don't assume the product is low-calorie. The manufacturer compensated with unhealthy ingredients that don't taste very good and, here's the kicker, have no fewer calories than the real thing."
Third, excersise.
Take the time to go for a nice jog around your block a couple of times, and set a scheduale. Go get yourself a nice little pedometer to tell you how many calories you are burning off, divide the number of calories you want to take care of that week into the days, and off you go.
Lastly, beleive in yourself.
If you dont think that you can do it, you arent going to have the will to, and your will power is the thing that will blast you right through those fifty pounds.

Answer 6

pick up a 5 or 10 pound weight at the gym and visualize that weight coming off holding the weight in your hands helps bring home just how heavy even 5 pounds of extra fat can be

Answer 7

It is so insensitive of her to carry on the way she did, especially as the reason you lost all that weight was due to a health issue. Your brother and parents really need to pull their finger out and tell her that she was completely out of line. If she no longer wants you to be a bridesmaid, that's fine, you can't really control that, but make it clear that you want to be reimbursed the $500 for the dress that you will probably never wear. Wear whatever you want to the wedding - if she hasn't realised that, as the bride, all attention will be on her anyway, she really is a psycho.

Answer 8

go 20 mph on your bike for 6 1 2 minutes

Answer 9

I gained almost 100 pounds when I was preganant. I told my doctor that if I didn't lose weight fast, I was going to kill myself! She gave a prescription for BONTRIL. I lost over 30 pounds in 6 weeks. She exlained to me that this medication was for obese patients only. But she let me try it for 5 months. I lost a total of around 45 pouds in 5 months. I doesn't hurt to ask!
