Answer 1

I went to a hypnotist once and lost quite a lot of weight over 5 months. I reckon I lost about 4lbs a week on the diet. I walked every day about 1.5 miles. I had no breakfast - this lack of b/fast wasn't really a good idea as far as a diet was concerned but I was after a quick weight-loss - and started eating b/fast again after I'd lost the weight. I had a fruit yoghurt for lunch plus an apple and ate a normal-sized meat & 2 veg dinner with fruit as dessert in the evening - plus tea/coffee during the day and hot milk at bedtime. I drank 2 litres of water a day as well. The hypnosis kept me going and I didn't feel hungry. I reached my goal which was a wedding I was attending and the weight stayed off for about 3 years before it gradually started to return. I'd gone back to old eating habits unfortunately as I had no goal to look forward to - but I kept up the exercise for a long while. I think you have to aim for something specific and when you reach it, aim for something else.

Here are a few tips:

1. You MUST exercise if you want to lose weight and keep it off, so do something every day, even if it’s just a 15-minute walk around the neighborhood. Don’t say you don’t have time for exercise; you have to MAKE time. Yes, it takes time and effort, but you’re worth it, right?

2. Walk as much as you want, but don’t do cardio for more than 40 minutes at a time. If you do, you risk burning muscle instead of fat.

3. If you do strength training, use light weights and do lots of repetitions. That’ll really help you “tone up.”

4. Your diet will make you or break you. You have probably learned bad eating habits over time (most people do). That’s not your fault, but now you have to deal with it. Make a commitment to yourself to unlearn those bad habits and re-learn better habits.

5. Eat breakfast every day within an hour of getting up. People who don’t are 450% more likely to be overweight.

6. Eat six small meals or snacks per day instead of three squares per day or one big meal per day. Your body expends energy digesting your food, so eating smaller portions more often keeps your metabolism running high because you’re constantly digesting food.

7. Avoid these as much as possible:

-- Trans fat (any type of partially or fully hydrogenated oil)
-- High fructose corn syrup (soft drinks are LOADED with it)
-- Fast food
-- Junk food
-- White sugar, white flour, white rice, white potatoes
-- The deadly C’s (cookies, cakes, candy, chips, cola)

8. Build your diet around these trim-body-friendly foods:

-- Nuts, any kind (almonds are best)
-- Beans/Legumes
-- Fresh vegetables (green is GREAT!!!)
-- Dairy products (as long as they’re low-fat or non-fat)
-- Eggs
-- Lean meats (fish and poultry top the list)
-- Olive oil
-- Whole grain breads/cereals/pasta
-- Fresh fruits (anything that ends in “berry” is a winner)
-- Tea (green tea or black pekoe tea)
-- Cold water or ice water (your body has to expend extra calories to heat it up)

9. Desserts and treats are the exception, not the rule. Having said that, however, (1) you can have a couple of pieces of chocolate every day – just don’t overdo, and (2) Allow yourself one “cheat meal” every week where you eat and drink whatever you want as long as you don’t gorge yourself. That’ll help keep you from feeling deprived and it’ll make it easier to stick with your new healthy eating plan.

Good luck!

Jog for about an hour a day. I run at a park with a 3 mile track and its not that bad. I lost 15 pounds like in a month. Just exercise and cut down on eating too much crap. You don't have to completely cut them out if you don't want but just cut them down....good luck!
