Answer 1

The APPLE PATCH

http://www.1applepatchdiet.com

Contains 3 natural ingredients:
Garcinia Cambogia - hydroxycitric acid extract, which inhibits an enzyme called citrate lyase that helps turns excess carbohydrates into fat
Guarana Extract - Seeds that contain caffeine to help increase energy.
Fucus Vesiculosus - Brown seaweed, which stimulates metabolic rate, and promote weight loss)

The patch uses a delivery method allowing the skin to absorb the elements within the patch at CONSISTENT levels over several hours. Unlike pills which must be taken several times a day, the transdermal patch method requires only a single application EVERY 3 Days. The patch is discreet and no one has to know you are on a diet.

GYM WORKOUT

I always start a workout with a 10 minute warm-up on an rowing machine, elispe or cycle.

30 minute weight program
1. Chest, Shoulder, Back (Mon, Thu)
2. Biceps, Triceps, Abs (Tue, Fri )
3. Legs (Wed, Sat)

26 minute interval training on cycle or treadmil

5 Minutes: RPE 3-4: Warm Up
2 minutes: RPE of 5: Increase speed and/or incline from warm-up to slightly higher than comfortable pace
2 minutes: RPE from 5-6: Increase the incline 1% every 15 seconds
2 minutes: RPE from 6-5: Decrease incline 1% every 15 seconds
1 minute: RPE: 8 Increase speed to fast walk or run
2 minutes: RPE: 5 Decrease speed to recover back to a medium intensity
2 minutes: RPE: 5-7: Increase incline 1% every 15 seconds
2 minutes: RPE 7-5: Decrease incline 1% every 15 seconds
1 minute: RPE 8: Increase incline to 5-10%, work as hard as you can (don't kill yourself!)
2 minutes: RPE 5: Decrease incline to 0% to recover back to medium intensity
5 minutes: RPE 3: Cool down by walking at a comfortable pace

5 Minute stretch out all your muscles especially calves and hamstings

IF you have access to a pool (heated indoor in this weather) 30 minutes 3 times a week will shed off the pounds.

If you can walk there rather than drive - do it. Every single calorie burned will help!

Answer 2

I use to be a bartender, and I know how you feel. You work unsociable hours, which means that when you should be sleeping like the rest of us you are on you feet all night and eating high energy foods to keep yourself awake. It is a very painful thing to do, but you will have to do it. Cut out the caffinated soft drinks such as Red Bull or V, they are high in sugar and that is your worst enemy. Before you go to work have a Low GI meal, this is slow release energy to keep your going through out the night. If you must snack, snack on healthy stuff like stick of carrot or celery. These are super veges and have heaps of goodies in them, they also take a long time to digests so they burn carbs. Cut out juices too as althought they are healthy they have a lot of natural sugars in them. Make water your friend.
I don't know how long it takes you to get to work but if you drive to work get in early and take a walk, it will give your body a chance to wake up as i assume you sleep during the day and you will be raring to start work. On your breaks stretch, as it will calm your mussels down from standing so long and you will feel better.
Once you start eating healthily you will begin to get that energy back. You pay for your YMCA membership why waste that money go and use it. That should be motivation enough as bartending wages are not really that good, so you need every penny you can get. Alcohol...(Big Pouts soon to come) cut it out, if you must have white wine it is lower in sugar then most alcoholic beverages, well Weight Watchers seems to think so as they rate it as 1 and a half points. If you are a big beer drinker well your beer drinking days are over...sorry.
Take a photo of yourself and pin it somewhere you will see every day, this is your motivational picture the before picture. Also measure youself with a tape measure. Upper arms, Waist, abdomen, upper thighs and calves. Do this at the beginning and then do it once a month. Make your weigh in day the same day every week and right it down somewhere you will see it. Try and write down what you eat, and think about whether or not it is healthy or not.

Not sure what it is in lbs but in Kilos your healthy weight range is 50 to 62kgs
Good luck in your weight loss endeavor

Answer 3

there are no miracle pills, supplements, patches, teas etc. - fat loss is hard work.
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:)
