I would like to lose weight for my sisters wedding, which is early next year. But i want to lose it fast, cause i’m getting fitted for my dress (im one of the bridesmaids) in a couple of months, and if i keep losing it gradually, i’ll have to keep bringing the dress back for adjustments. I’m not overweight, im 5’3 and i weigh 62 kilo’s. Its just that the dress is going to be tight and i wanna lose weight around my hips and stomach.. anyone know how i can do this fast?

Below site has slow ways to lose weight but specializes in fastest ways to lose weight. Takes off bodyfat, water retention and 3rd thing which is a trick used by models and dancers right before an event with instructions. You can share it with the bride. This trick gives you a flatter stomach and a temporary loss of 5 to 20 pounds in an hour. Is this fast enough for you?

Right before fitting take an enema to get out those 5 to 20 pounds of waste. They come back after a day and a half but site has ways to minimize how much comes back. Then right before wedding do it again to temporarily look better than normal. After learning about it, I wondered if Britney Spears does this before making an appearance or music video. Well you have seen photos of celebrities at events looking great but also on street looking not so great. Mae West used to take an enema every morning.

How do you lose weight in your legs?
Aside from running, what type of exercises could I do? Would it be better to do more shorter/lighter reps or fewer/slower/heavier reps?
I’m not overweight by any means, but compared to a small waist I have disproportionate thighs :\\. Thanks!

I’d prefer to actually lose weight/slim my legs because toning them wouldn’t help my disproportionate figure.

Also, I want to actually EXERCISE, not try pills or strange diets.

Unfortunately you cannot lose weight in just one body area. Weight loss is an overall process and there are no magic answers. Pay no attention to weight loss supplements and pills and all the latest fads. You need to think about many factors but most of them are related to issues we’ve known about for a very long time. There are many sensible things you can do that will make a tremendous difference over the long term if you need to lose weight. It can be done in a healthy way. This is what has worked for me.

Keeping a food journal really does help. It will give you a much better sense of how much you are eating, and when, and why.

Make a few additional small changes – walk everywhere, always use stairs instead of elevators, walk on escalators, get up and move around at least once an hour if your work or your life in general is sedentary, walk every day, use a pedometer. Walking 10,000 steps a day is a really good idea. Build up to a long brisk walk everyday, or most days. Be more active and watch less TV and spend less time on the computer. Buy one piece of exercise equipment to have at home and be strict with yourself about using it. Sometimes you can find mini-steppers or exercise bikes at second hand stores and thrift stores for just a few dollars.

Start a weight lifting routine. Join a gym. Possibly you can find one that has someone who specializes in weight lifting programs for beginners. Weight lifting will increase your metabolism as well as improve posture and appearance overall. Even if you can’t get to the gym you can work out at home using things around the house. Invest in a good weight training book. The Dummies series actually has a good one.

In terms of diet, cut out or reduce things like junk food, pop, fat, fast food. Eat more fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean meat, fish. Particularly if you choose a vegetarian lifestyle include natural peanut butter, hummus, dried fruit and nuts. Pay close attention to getting the nutrients your body needs to be healthy.

Make your portion sizes smaller. Use a smaller plate – in our society we have become accustomed to thinking that we need a large plate of food at every meal, and we don’t. About quarter of your plate of food should be protein and at least half of it should be veggies.

Learn to count calories. At your current weight and activity level, you may possibly need about 2000 calories or more to maintain your current weight. So you will lose weight at a reasonable and healthy rate if you cut back to about 1600 or 1700 calories a day.

Eat small amounts frequently, rather than three large meals. Never skip breakfast. Include some protein in your breakfast. It will help get you through the day.

Drink plenty of water, at least 8 big glasses of water a day, and more if it is very hot, if you sweat a lot, or if you are exercising intensely, and eliminate fruit juices. Fruit juices have too many calories, so get your vitamins from fresh fruit, not the juice. You will begin to see changes in your body.

Vary your routines. Don’t eat the same number of calories every day (vary your calories from 1400 a day to 1900 or 2000 some days), eat a variety of foods, and do different kinds and amounts of exercise. You will lose weight much more efficiently if you mix things up from time to time so that your body doesn’t adjust to any one routine.

An area that many people overlook is getting enough sleep. You are much more likely to overeat or to binge eat if you are tired and not well rested, so get enough sleep.

Check out websites about nutrition, exercise, weight training, etc. Here are a few helpful links.

Im 5ft and 8 in and weight around 145. I want to lose atleast 5-8 lbs of pure body fat. But I’ve heard that when you lose weight you also lose muscle mass and strength? Is this true? So how can I prevent myself from losing the mass of my muscle and strength while losing the fat.

How to lose 8 pounds of just fat is easy with these 5 or 6 simple steps. Some steps might actually make you stronger;

1.Eat when you are hungry: because if you eat when you are full you are just stretching your stomach tissue and if you starve yourself that’s when you lose muscle and your body will expect you to keep starving yourself which slows down your metabolism.

2.Take your time: when you eat fast you want to eat more because you cant tell when you are full. If you eat slow you will realize you are full when you are full.

3.Take walks and drink water: walks are a pretty easy exercise but it is still exercise and drinking water cleanses your body and if you drink a cup of water before every meal you won`t eat as much.

4.No artificle stuff: soda is horrible when your on a diet this may sound weird but especially diet soda. Diet stuff is the exact opposite of what it sounds it may have less calories but all the chemicals in it make up for that.(Also an other reason people say you also lose muscle mass and strength.)

5.Abs: when you are relaxing like watching TV if you sit it a position like this your abs will burn fat _/. Also slow leg lifts help too.

6.Thyroid?:If you do not lose any weight in 5 weeks ask your doctor if you have thyroid.

Yes, that will certainly help. To lose weight you have to burn more calories than you consume. Weight loss is an overall process and there are no magic answers. Pay no attention to weight loss supplements and pills and all the latest fads. You need to think about many factors but most of them are related to issues we’ve known about for a very long time. There are many sensible things you can do that will make a tremendous difference over the long term if you need to lose weight. It can be done in a healthy way. This is what has worked for me.

I wanna lose weight so that i can look nice during chinese new year next year feb. And i’ve got 3 months from now. What should i do to lose weight and maintain it instead of gaining it back? Is losing 5kg a month possible? I skip for about half an hour for a few days in a week.

Avoid soda as much as possible, even diet sodas –most artificial sweeteners have potential health risks. One glass of wine or beer every day is fine for most people and may actually have health benefits. Beyond this, however, alcohol can be fattening and of course can contribute to other health problems.

I want to lose weight just on my stomach area. I like how my body is and want to leave it that way except for my stomach because it seems as if that’s the only place I gain weight! And on my upper thighs. I’m also kind of lazy when it comes to being active but I love food! Any tips?

If you really wanna lose that gut of yours then you need to start eating better and doing some situps every day.You arent going to get that six pack youve always dreamed of by sitting on your ass all day.You need to work for it.All of those perfect bodies you see on tv these days,theyve worked for the body that they have today.Of course they probably have a personal trainer but you can do it yourself…you just need to be able to push yourself to do what needs to be done.You need to make that committment if you really wanna have a better body.Once you start exercising for a few weeks…it will be hard at first but your body will get used to it and you will also have more energy.Good Luck!

I started dieting in June. Thus far I have lost 25 pounds. I started losing weight because I’m going to Europe and well I want to look good! It’s been a few weeks and I haven’t shed a pound! I am 5’5 and currently weigh 160. I’d like to lose another 30 pounds. I got another 2 weeks left before my trip, hopefully I can lose a bit more before then. I have been traveling a bit, but have maintained my diet; however, I could work out a bit more. Any suggestions on how I can get out of this slump?

I currently am on a diet and the leader i see reckons that if you have a slump like you have to go on a plateau menu plan for a week, so you go back to what you ate the first week you were there to kick start your body again. i find this really helps also drinking plenty of water and maybe eating a little less for a week. Hope this helps

How much weight do you have to lose until people start noticing that you’ve lost weight?

It depends on your starting weight. If you weigh 350, it’s doubtful that anyone will notice a 10 lb drop. But for a 140 lb woman, 10 lbs make a huge difference. My best answer is that if you lose 10% of your body weight, it will definitely be noticed.
