Oh also, consider doing some weightlifting. Not like a bodybuilder regimen, but yes, actually lifting weights.

Building muscle is one of the FASTEST ways to DESTROY FAT since muscle burns fat!

Something to remember if you're weight lifting though is that muscle weighs more than fat, so don't pay as much attention to what the scale says you weigh.

And speaking of scale there's two thoughts to this.

1 - Measure your weight daily because you can't win a game that you don't keep score at...

And 2 - Forget the scale because it's not always going to give an accurate picture of your results. Instead use how you look in the mirror and how your clothes fit as the judge.

I understand both, and for most things I'd agree with #1 logic... but for most people wanting to lose weight, it can have a negative impact when someone looks down at the scale and sees that they haven't lost any weight or just lost a pound, or even gained a pound...

So I would suggest to maybe measure with #1 once per month so you DO have a score to write down... (but keep it as a generality, not as something concrete) and use #2 the rest of the time.

Sorry for all the posts... just thought of 2 more side notes (probably think of more later!)

1 - Stay away from anything that has high fructose corn syrup in it
2 - Stay away from anything that has hydrogenated vegetable oil in it.

Best thing to do really is if you read the ingredients and you have trouble reading the word, or it sounds like it was made in a lab... stay away from it!

Also, in the posts i've posted, i hope you noticed there was nothing about counting calories, fat, etc...

Just use some common sense and do the best you can.

If you really want to give it a jump start, check out The Master Cleanse.

It may sound hardcore, but it cleans out most of the crap in your body and you end up losing about a pound a day. It's generally a 10 day cleanse and you basically drink a lemonade mixutre using Purified Water, Pure Maple Syrup, Fresh Squeezed Lemons, and Cayenne Pepper.

Surprisingly, even though that's all you drink, you are never hungry. You may psychologically want to eat... but you won't be physiologically hungry (and if you are, you just drink some more).

There's also a salt water flush you do in the morning (not a whole lot of fun but it helps remove the waste).

Hope that helps,

~Russell =)

i honestly think that by REALLY WANTING to lose weight.

I mean, go write 1001 reasons on why you want to lose weight and 1001 things you hate about yourself. look through them everyday and stay true to your resolution.

there's really no magic pill.
eat healthily, exercise often and stay away from junk food.
that should do the trick.

i lost 24pounds in one month last October following this method.

I've always heard that one of the most important aspects of losing weight is to just stay active. never have a day where you don't do some activity for at least half an hour. It may be hard with IM, or work, but somehow find time for it.

gus89

Lol, I could use a weight loss magic bullet right now as well. Working from home is not good for keeping pounds off.

slvrsrfr

there's a weight loss magic pill in my sig line. and it's all free info.

but seriously, there isn't any great secret to weight loss. expenses must be more than income.

i find diet is the best for that, but exercising is also important. they key, like in im, is persistence and don't go too hard too quickly.

here's a quick tip, eat at 10x your body weight in pounds as food in calories. if you weigh 200lbs then 2000 calories is the minimum you should eat but don't eat more than 13x if you want to lose weight.

and truly, have a look at my sig. you might get some good pointers. it's all free as i said before.

MR2nice

I've tried fasting (10 days) and it worked for me. But you must have determination and strong will.

Personally to loose weight I have done several things. Started a food/exercise journal for one. It always helps to see if you suddenly gain a few pounds what you had been eating/drinking. I am also not eating strictly... just in moderation. I even go to McDonalds for lunch and dinner and have a McDouble with a side salad. Or I just get the burger and eat my own salad at home. Just as a tip... clean and re-use your old side salad bowl. Makes for great portion control.

Supplement wise, I hate to say it but I am taking CLA. Seems to be helping me lose weight and tone the muscle I already have.

My worst area is exercise. I seem to always have difficulty sticking to a plan or making my schedule work around it. I walk as often as possible though and never consider a day that I missed exercising a "failure". Just start again tomorrow.

My personal battle with weight has been going on for 20 years. Starvation, magic pills, yo yo and fad diets. It's all garbage. About all you need is to learn moderation, keep your exercise plan as stimulating as possible because boredom is a killer and don't let momentary lapses in judgment ruin the whole plan. Just pick up the pieces and start again the next day. Or even better the next meal. Oh, and work on staying away from processed sugar, even in your coffee or tea. And white bread is just plain bad unless it's from a real bakery and not some over processed ACME factory.

Luckies

Eat just a few many times a day and run for 30 minutes every day. Avoid junk food. Eating a lot of fruit helps too.

I subsituted Stevia for sugar in my morning hot drink. I substituted black tea for coffee. Stevia is a natural extract sweetener from the stevia plant discovered by Nazcan indians

cutting way back on your sugar intake will make you less hungry later on. THis is because your blood sugar levels are not on a roller coaster anymore.

Here's what I did to lose weight.

I ran 2 miles a day, then I got on the Bow-Flex for 30 minutes without any rest in between sets. I followed the charts and drank a ton of water.

This work as I have done it more than once. I lost appr 2 to 4 lbs per week doing this, and in the heat it was even more at times.

This really does work, however not everyone will do it as it takes a lot of work and push to do this. But I will say you will get into the best shape of your life.

This is exactly how I trained for fights, and for cross country 4 wheeler races that require you to be in top shape.

Hope this helps, and good luck.

Another secret tip: when you eat something, write it down in a little notebook that you keep with you all of the time. write EVERYTHING in the notebook. Read it periodically. YOu will be agahst at some of the thngs you stuff in your mouth, and after a while, will think twice about what you eat.

clubvikram

Now this is a good one,keeping a record of whatever you eat it .I think it will work wonders when you are seriously pursuing a weight loss program and not succeeding.We always do our performance analysis at the end of the day and i helps us better prepared for the next day so similar procedure could be applied in case of our diet too.

Keeping a good attitude is like Kudzu, it spreads!

EmmaJames

After reading The Ultimate New York Body Plan
I learned that if you want to lose weight and lose
weight fast you are going to have to do a lot
of strength training.

That means working out for 1 1/2 hours every
day for 14 days straight, not just 30 min 3 days
a week.

You'll do 45 min of a tough cardio routine like
jumping rope or running.

Then you go right into 45 min of strength training.

One day you work on upper body, the next the lower
body, the next day just abs and you go back and forth.

It's no joke. The secret was that you have to work
out a lot longer than most workout routines require.

My sister lost about 40 pounds on Slimfast... unfortunately it didn't last very long after she started eating unhealthy crap again. Whether the product actually worked or it was a placebo effect, I couldn't tell you >:P

Ciara Mac Mahon

I think the reason an enormous amount of people find themselves overweight is simply the habits they have developed over the years with repect to food.

Really examine what foods you choose to eat & why, perhaps this is just the food your family prepared when you were a child, perhaps you were comforted with treats when you fell over and grazed your knee so now you associate chocolate with feeling better?

To lose weight permanantly, you need to address what's going on in your head! Change your habits, take a different path. It will be probably be challenging but it's certainly not impossible.

Loren Woirhaye

I was reading a book (at a store, I didn't buy it) on the Vegan
diet approach. The author wrote she studied with a Japanese
philosopher who said "it's easier for people to change their life
partners than change their food."

You have to realize that the people around you, people you live
with, are not going to change the way they eat or the way
they think about food just because you want to change
your way of doing food... so when you go on the journey to
find the right diet for YOU, you do it on your own.

One solution is to make new friends in the vegan, bodybuilding,
or whatever... people who are themselves engaged in a
process of examining and changing their own diet to achieve
specific goals.... in a disciplined way.

Treadmill 20 mins a day (if it helps listen to music)
If your daily calorie intake is higher than 2500 male 2000 female (This depends on what you do, but if you sit down all day this is the recommended calorie intake)
Decrease daily caloy intake by 100 then 200 then 300 (depends on how much you want to lose)

Treadmill Start slow i.e. walking pace then increase, when tired and still not reached 20 mins decrease speed and when you feel ok increase speed, repeat process til 20mins complete.
Your goal is to stay at high speed for 20mins. Once this is complete set to 1 speed and begin doing 1 mile-2mile etc.. To lose a alot of weight food is important DO NOT DIET they dont work change the way you eat and excersise. everyone needs to increase excesise and cut back on food. This is because the world is becoming more lazy and we are letting machines do the work for us.
This is known as HIT. Type in google for more info

I lost 2 stone in 2 months jus by treadmill everyday and decreasing calorie intake.

I would advise not have anything sugary like coke, they hide the real calories in them.
Stick to fish,low carbs, meat, brown rice, brown bread, increase on fruits, nuts, vegetables and MOST IMPORTANT FLUIDS. Drinking 1ltr of ice cold water everday could lose you 1stone in one year. Thats if you can drink 1 ltr everyday. Because the system needs to warm the water up before it can use it, therefore usin some joules/calories

There is no secret to losing weight.

When I was a trainer we focused on 3 things to achieve weight goals and that's Diet, Weight Training, and Cardio. And being on a "diet" doesn't mean eat less. Those diets do not last. In order to get the body fat ratio that you want, you may need to eat more to build more lean muscle mass.

If you're not willing to do that, you'll probably never lose the weight and keep it off.

Being fit and healthy is a lifestyle, not a fad.

Just eat less and cut out the crap.

It really works.

Charles Montgomery

Here is what my wife does. One day, she decided she was fat. She was a size 16. To counter this she started walking/running three miles a day 5 days a week. (It sounds bad, but it really isnt all that bad. You are only looking at 45 minutes of workout.)

Over the course of four months and without using a single diet pill, she was down to a size 2. She really didnt eat all that less, either. We just started eating healthy. Certain veggies you can eat all you want!

A couple years later she got pregnant. After giving birth she was back up to a size 16. Well after four more months of running - and competing in a couple of 5K's, she is back down to a size 2-4 range.

Nothing magic I know, but it is a simple plan to follow. She got me to running to lose wieght, also. I was up to 230lbs. I didnt even have running shoes or running clothes, so I ran naked with Doc Martins on my treadmill for about five months before my wife finally bought me some shoes.

Anyway, I got down to 180lbs in a few months. Now, I run 3-4 miles a day for two consecutive months out of the year. And it keeps me in the 180-195 range for the whole year.

VoodooMethods

Here is the secret, listen real well...

Start eating multi grain foods, fruit, veggies and SMALL AMOUNTS of meat every day.

Avoid crappy cheap food.

Run for at least 30 minutes or jog. The more the better.

Eat at least 5 times a day!! (small meals, speeds up metabolism!)


Make sure you get plenty of fiber

It's that easy.. I went from 354 to 220 in a year eating like they did back in the 1600s (no McD's BK ect), just excersizing a lot less!

jvwinwin

The real secret? It's your mindset and your lifestyle that you have to change.

For years nothing worked for me until I decided I want to be healthy and happy instead of slim and thin.

Think healthy eating and healthy living and you are set for losing weight permanently!

Planetpeoplefinder

The secret is that there is no secret.

I have also been having problems losing fat until I have done the following:

- Count my daily calories. Yes, it's tedious, but you need to track your daily intake, so you can tweak it to lose fat.

- Weigh myself everyday and MORE IMPORTANTLY, measure my waist with a tape. I am not so interested in weight, but more in body composition. In other words, what percentage of your body is fat and what percentage is lean mass.

- Exercise regularly, doing both conditioning for fat loss and resistance exercises to keep or build muscle.

- Take supplements such as multi-vitamins, minerals, and amino acids, to make sure that my body experiences no nutritional deficiencies due to the lowered caloric intake. The amino acids also help with keeping the muscle.

- Eat a lot of protein. You want to lose FAT, not MUSCLE.

Mimic your metabolism eat your biggest meal at breakfast when your metabolism is highest, then a smaller meal at lunch and your smallest meal at dinner and nothing after 8 pm. and excersise

TeddyP

The answer to this question really is one line:

burn more calories than you take in.

Of course there is a lot of useful information in this thread on how to accomplish that.

I decided to post again because my sister showed me a free app she downloaded for her iphone...I THINK it was called Loseit - anyways it lets you enter what you consume and it keeps track of the calories you have eaten through the day. It also allows you to put in the exercise you did that day and i minuses that from your intake. It will tell you how much exercise you need to end up burning more calories than you take in.

I am sure it isnt perfect but it seemed to work pretty well AND it is so handy because your phone is with you everywhere.

Update: I have lost 6 lbs over 2 months with reductil. This is more or less within expectations. I am going to take a further 2 months course and will then end there.

Reductil has definitely cut down my appetite for breakfast and lunch.

I will make it simple for you, i cant even be bothered to read the post, ive read 10000s of them all the same, car forums, marketing forums, bodybuilding forums diet advice threads they are all full of experts.

the reality is that everyone has their own different reasons, hypo thyroid, diabetes, compulsive overeating, other eating disorders and so on, so THERE IS NO ONE ANSWER.

I do identify with yoyo dieting and have helped many people for many years and there are many answers to what works, all of them above probably valid points, unless anyone wrote - its simple, calroies in greater than calories out = gain weight, if they did, ignore them

best advice i can give is, take advice of one person you trust, stick to that method for minimum of 3 months before you decide it doesnt work, it may sound like nothing, but its a big part of why stuff doesnt work

Eat less, Exercise more!

tandren544

You need three things.

1. Slightly (SLIGHTLY!!!) Calorie Restricted Diet

2. Cardio multiple times per week.

3. Weight training multiple times per week.

The reason yo-yo dieting doesn't work is because while you are on your diet (a.k.a. prison camp rations) your body breaks down your lean body mass (LBM). So, the weight you lose is not just fat, it's LBM too. The key is to lose fat, not just weight.

If you exercise (especially weight training) and eat a proper diet, you will maintain LBM while losing fat. That way, if you slip up and fall off your diet for a few days, you won't balloon up from having a slow metabolism. Your metabolism will still be revved up because you have more muscle.

A proper diet consists of whole foods. Take it slow. Eliminate one food per week. Try to avoid foods very high in animal fats while supplementing your diet with fish oils, nuts and legumes. Eliminate sugar and white bread from your diet completely.

Think about it this way: try to eat something in the most natural state possible. If something looks the same way now as it did when it came off the tree or out of the ground, it probably has a high nutritional value. If something looks very altered, it has a lower nutritional value.

i.e. raw apple > cooked apple > applesauce.

Try to consume a lot of:

1. Fiber
2. Vegetables
3. Essential Fatty Acids
4. Water!

If you follow these you'll see significant change in your body composition, and you won't feel starved like you are on a fad diet.

I am a pharmacist and I have been helping hundreds of my patients lose weight over the last year or so without drugs, only natural methods.

The golden rule is weight loss is dependent on the speed of your metabolism and digestion. If both of these are slow, it does not matter how many diet plans you follow or how many supplements you take, you will never lose weight.

The aim is to speed both up in a natural safe way that lasts for a lifetime.

As a result you will also consume less calories than you burn = weight loss

Diet pills is my Best solution .

vossman

I highly recommend purchasing a book called "Eat Right For Your Type" by Dr. Peter J D'Adamo. The book provides dietary and exercise guidelines based on what your blood type is. Basically what Dr. D'Adamo and his father found after many years of research was that certain foods/diets were causing disorders in people based on their blood type.

The book puts forth good arguments like:
- Every dietary and nutritional guide that has ever come out has never worked for everyone.
- Our blood types were developed thousands of years ago by our ancestors in the areas they lived in based on what they ate. Food was regionally based before the time of McDonald's
- Our bodies still have the same blood types as way back then and being part of our genetic heritage defines what food's are best for us, what foods are ok, and what foods we should outright avoid.

The book goes into detail about the history of the work, how they determined that blood type is actually a major factor is dietary guidelines and also some example cases that were encountered. I am a total believe in the book. At the beginning of this year I made a choice to become vegetarian. Mostly because I thought it was a "healthy" choice. 6 months later I had gained 10-15 lbs, my energy levels were never full, and I felt pretty crappy overall. When I found this book, it told me that for my blood type ( Type O ) I should be eating a large amount of meat in my diet. As soon as I started eating meat again, I started feeling better.

I am now on week 6 of my own diet creation. It is a combination of the blood type diet and the atkins diet. The Type O diet is very similar to atkins, but not nearly as strict with carb counting. I decided since I would be eating meat, and most carbs were listed as not being good for me, I would give it a shot. So far I have lost somewhere around 20 lbs in just over 5 weeks and I have been feeling great.

I am a regular exerciser too, going to the gym 4-5 days a week, but even when I was a vegetarian this did not help my weight problem at all. Now all my pants are getting loose and I am slimming down more each week.

An important thing to take from this is that not every diet, exercise program, nutritional guide is going to work for everyone. Wether or not you want to check out the blood type diet, you cannot escape the fact that everyone's body is different, and the same dietary guidelines just will not work for every single person. You need to constantly be changing things up, recording your results, and noting what works for you.

Best of luck to all on their journey to health!

There are some finer points to weight loss for sure however, I think at a macro level, you can make great progress just by adhering to two simple tactics:

1. Eat less fatty foods
2. Exercise a little more

That about sums it up ... and there are some good gains to be had for cheap (money and time-wise) by just sticking to those two and ignoring everything else; until your wallet and schedule are ready.

P.S. And I agree with RusselPrisco above. Canceling the cable TV is a great idea. Takes some getting used to, but it's a great thing.

After months of deliberating and making friends with the various exercise props in my house exercise bike, dumbells, treadmill etc. I decided to start fresh. Yes the only secret is the Gym.

I had my first kick aerobics class yesterday and could not stop laughing it was soo funny watching myself and the fellow members barely able to kick higher than 50cms.I learned a great lesson though arrogance can be the hidden snake that paralyzes you, ie my arrogance was I don't want or need to go to the gym. Then I realised well why make an easy task like getting into shape harder on myself.

Why is the gym a secret:

1. You get over all the inhibitions of feeling like being overweight is a crime especially when you see many bigger people working their butt off in buckets of sweat.
2. You go their with a clear intention and focus to work out - no putting off I will do it later shenanigans.
3. You feel motivated to push yourself further and the vareity of machines classes workouts stop you from becoming bored
4. you start losing cravings for junk food as your body releases good chemicals
5.It can become a great place to socialize while working out

Other tips would be to:

1. Drink more water - sometimes when you are hungry you may actually be thirsty
2. Try apple cider vinegar in a glass of cold water as a refreshing drink. Its also great at burning fat I believe. I use it in my salads.
3. Try to become friends with salads. Eat as much raw exciting salads as you want but keep the salad dressings to a minimum. Also salads keep you feeling fuller for longer.
4. Keep a fruit bowl in your room so when you get hungry have a banana instead of reaching for a junk snack

losing weight is like Internet Marketing . If you follow the system its a no brainer!!

thezone

While muscle has a somewhat slight metabolic advantage over adipose tissue, the organs of the body account for a majority of the body's energy expenditure. Following is the formula for Resting Energy Expenditure

REE= 200 x liver (kg) + 240 x brain (kg) + 440 x heart (kg) + 440 x kidney (kg) + 4.5 x adipose tissue (kg) + 12 x Miscellaneous tissues (kg)

While miscellaneous tissue requires almost 3 times more energy then fat, the overall amount of energy expenditure doesn't matter. Fat free mass (FFM) doesn't decrease as fat mass increases, and the overweight individual ONLY has more adipose tissue (not LESS FFM then a normal weight individual..sometimes slightly more to account for the extra weight being carried), so an overweight person will burn more based on the fact that they have an increased amount of adipose tissue (fat). As fat is lost (and weight starts to "normalize"), energy requirements will decrease.

That being said. What happened in the world of "weight loss" is that "weight loss gurus" started creating new metrics (big surprise), and use what body builders eat on average /pound of FFM when training (~ 50 calories/lb FFM), and somehow that began to translate as "a pound of muscle burns 50 calories". Muscle itself doesn't burn more calories, what happens is that while in an anabolic state, muscle tissue requires somewhat more energy (then adipose tissue), for constant cellular "regeneration". The body is constantly changing between anabolic/catabolic states, and when the body is in a catabolic state (ie. "ENERGY" deficit), muscle tissue (depending on overall deficit) is broken down and also used as fuel. The body can NEVER maintain an energy deficit, and be in an anabolic state....NEVER (the laws of physics changes for no man).

Furthermore, while muscle is more dense then fat, it is only "slightly" more dense (both are made up of three components in varying percentages water, fat, amino acids..amino acids having the highest density at slightly above water (1g/cm^3@4C)). Adipose tissue has a density of ~0.94 g/ml, while muscle tissue has a density of ~1.02-1.06g/ml ( making fat ~12.5% denser). To put that in VOLUME perspective take 8 pounds of butter, and "allow" that to represent 8 pounds (by volume) of muscle tissue, add another pound of butter (12.5% more), and those 9 pounds of butter, represent the volume of *8* pounds of fat (not a lot of difference). It's the distribution of fat versus muscle that makes the difference (ie. nobody gains significant amount of muscle tissue around their midsection, boobs or hips, but accumulate the most amoun to subcutaneous fat there), which is why measurements (especially in those three areas) are important (the number one excuse (for a lack of weight loss or a gain) is...."I am building muscle".

Lastly, while you are correct that someone can maintain weight and still "lose" fat, it is NOT because of a simultaneous anabolic/catabolic state (the body can NOT be in both states simultaneously). When the body is in a catabolic state (well either state for that matter), extreme intra/extra-cellular hydration changes occur (in order to maintain electrolyte balance), which results in great swings in weight (either up, down, or steady), highly dependent on the macronutrient composition of the diet).

Now, what was my point, and why are we discussing weight loss in a marketing forum (btw did I mention I make 13 digits a month)? Oh right Sylver! The guy who uses an 8.1 Million dollar "charter" jet (2008 Cessna 525B (CJ3)), and claims it is his.....regardless....let me get this straight.....he is your #1 mentor.... he is FAT (well maybe not by today's NEW standards), and he sells a subconscious programming weight loss program?....Do you not find the least bit of irony in that? (did I mention I make 13 digits a month).

thezone

Environment....the colder the climate the greater the required energy. Shivering is a precursor to hypothermia, the expended energy required to make the muscles shake to create warmth to protect vital organs require great amounts of energy. The only issue, is that one may compensate for the extra energy required.

I personally know 3 people that have lost a great deal of weight (30+ pounds each)

they all went to a doctor that put them on a special diet that is low carb, high veggie.

they lose 1+ pounds a day and have to get tested every week, magnesium and potassium are the difficult nutrients to maintain.

It has been 3+ years for the first person to do it and his weight is still off.

It costs something like $300 + $150 a week, the program is about 8 weeks.

The only other people I've ever know to lose weight did it through surgery.

In the end it all boils down to one thing; Consume less energy then you expend (and I ain't even going to charge $150/week to "share" that knowledge). Low carb was the "you don't need to count calories" diet fad of the 90's (and I believe it first came out in the 70's). Individuals who take in more energy then they expend (low carb or not), will gain weight (more accurately...accumulate fat) regardless of the macro nutrient composition of the diet.

Unlike low-carb; I am not a proponent of cutting out (or severely limiting) whole groups of foods. A sustainable eating regime should consist of grains (preferably whole), fruits, vegetables, lean meats, fish, and low-fat dairy (keeping the percentage of overall fat between 20-25%..8-12% if you are on a VLC regime).

If I be a vegetarian now, will it be helpful? I'm still affraid to take any diet pills. maybe there's still any safer way to do.
