Default Re: Do you have a secret way to loose weight?

Losing weight is a very difficult thing to do. Started in this business years ago found me sitting in front of this computer all day. As a result, gain about 30 pounds. I experience some discomfort from sitting too much. You just have to train yourself to break away. Trust me this stuff is not going any place. So, I will give you my schedule.

1.I get up at 6:00 AM
2.Have one cup of coffee
3.Work until noon
4.Take a five mile walk every day if possible(don’t walk in the rain)
5.Drink mineral water all day
6.Eat a salad every day
7.Take a nice nap after my walk
8.Change positions after my walk to a comfort chair with my laptop
9.From 4PM to about 7PM work on my laptop
10.Have dinner at 7:30 and the rest of day is for me.
11.I have lost the 30 pounds

I hope this helps a little. Just try to keep things as simple as possible.


Jimmy.

Pills can always have side effects. It is alweays good to limit ourselves to natural diet, so that we may be safe. Vitamin c helps in controlling fat as well as developing natural immunity. Try lemon water without mixing it with anything. drink lots of water to balance the acid effect of lemon.

Well, I haven't read all the answers here - but here are some tips:

- Don't take advice from overweight neighbors. Emulate success. Which people have the best bodies? Probably natural bodybuilders. Do what they do (but not to those extremes necessarily).

- Don't think about losing weight - think about losing fat and gaining muscle

- Drink a lot of water a day. Drink a glass every few hours

- Eat 5-6 balanced meals a day.

- Emphasize protein: Chicken, milk, eggs, fish, nuts.

- Do resistance training. Emphasize basic, compound movements that work many muscle groups at a time. For example, not triceps kickbacks but push ups. No concentration curls but chin ups.

Hope this helps :-)

Tip Re: Do you have a secret way to loose weight?

Write a plan and take things slowly. If we try to change too many things at once we start to panic, think we are depriving ourselves and then we just go off our "diet" plans.

Writing a plan will not only make you take your goals more seriously but it is important. You have particular habits that are pretty automatic right now. All your life you have probably been eating a certain way. The only way to stop that is with mental effort at first.

I think its important to go slowly and change one thing at a time because as I said above you will panic. I had a massive binge the night before I was suppose to be starting a new healthy lifestyle...because I panicked.

I would observe your eating habits for a few days - write down what you eat, how you feel and whether emotion triggers you to eat. You can then use something like nutridiary.com to see how many calories you are getting at the moment and how much over. Include drinks in your observations as well. This will give you an overall look at why and what you are eating. You might be surprised.

One of the easiest things you can do to cut calories is to only drink water.

Another tip that has helped many is to eat 4-5 pieces of fruit before meals. This will satiate you much better and you will be less inclined to eat afterwards. It is having dessert at the beginning of your meal.

Overcome emotional eating. Most people do not know the difference between true hunger and emotional hunger. True hunger is felt in the throat and is patient. Emotional hunger makes you crave a specific food and is all about the tummy. If you can overcome emotional eating you should find that losing weight comes easy.

Exercise is also important too - just pick something you enjoy and do it everyday.

Also try to not eat after 6pm. When you eat late you really effect your sleep. If you are tired and groggy you are more likely to eat for emotional reasons.

Getting support either in real life or online can be great too. Making yourself accountable will keep you focused.

Take a before picture and keep a journal. If you have pictures to see your progress it will motivate you to keep going. A journal can be a great way to offload your emotions instead of numbing them with food.

I was able to lose weight by eating less carb food (such as pasta, bread, potato), going for at least 30 minutes walk daily and not eating anything after 7pm.

Read the fine print on exercise - you can lose an average of 2-5 pounds - and that's all!

Default Re: Do you have a secret way to loose weight?

I have always just counted calories. Most every expert I've ever heard who has nothing to sell says the same thing ... if you burn more calories than you consume you lose weight. A male of normal activity burns 17 calories per pound per day. So if you weigh say 200 pounds, you probably burn somewhere near 3400 calories per day. Ladies of typical activity burn approximately 15 calories per pound (due to the average lady having less muscle mass than the average guy / muscle burns slightly more calories).

If you only consume 2000 calories per day you burned 1400 calories of fat that day. There are 3500 calories in a pound of fat so you burned a bit over 1/3 of a pound.

That always worked fine for me. I must have lost at least 300 pounds that way over the years, 30 pounds at a time. Obviously, where I didn't do so well was keeping the weight off! As soon as I stopped counting the calories, the pounds came right back on. My record was one time when I kept it off for seven years. I think that was possible because I went swimming almost every day in spring, fall, and summer and played tennis in winter.

Good luck to you dieters! I'm too damned old to care anymore! And I do love those pork chops!

Hi Topgunb

Be disciplined with what you buy when you go into the supermarket. Don’t look at all the nice food which you would have no problem in eating right there and then. Go shopping when you have had a good breakfast and you are full. The sight of all the food in the supermarket should put you off.

Depending on how bad you want to lose the weight and look good is really down to you. How bad do you want it?

Eat plenty of lean chicken, vegetables and fruit in the week and cut down on the bread, butter and cheese. You know all the nice stuff. Have a cheat day in the week.

Take some form of exercise that causes you to work up a sweat. Maybe you could consider trying a martial art? Brazilian Jiu - jitsu is awesome for weight loss and is probably one of the best full body workouts you can get

Try a protein shake with CLA in. The CLA optimizes fat metabolism.

Read about the “Gracie diet”.

Hope that helps

Rich

I do the Hour of Power in the mornings (Tony Robbins) where you walk while you have a time of gratitude/prayer for what you already have/are, what you want to become and then affirmation of what you want to become.

Hypnosis for weight release (self hypnosis, meditation and brain entrainment), with visualization.

I also have started eating about 75% raw (uncooked fruits, veggies, nuts and sprouted grains).

That's my regimen--hope this helps!

just go running for 400m in 2 minutes, the 1st week
and then go for 800 m in 4 minutes, the 2nd week

well... i think by the end of the first month, you'll be surprise when you work your way till you can do 800m in 3 minutes

your gut would have flattened amazingly.

and one more thing, i'm not asking you suffer a deprived diet, but just cut back on the sauces and the soft drinks, of course. go ahead with the meat though. but just keep running!

You guys need to stop taking pills. I have also been a good weight but my cousin lost 100lbs.

Here is how he did it:


He was 360lbs and started to replace some of his meals with weight watchers believe it or not. HE lost like 40lbs ina few months doing this.


Then he started working out 4 times a week doing 45 minutes of cardio and 45 minutes of weight training.



Now he is around 250lbs at 6'4 and hardly looks fat.


Also, P90x is a workout program I would recommend for anyone. YOU WILL LOSE WEIGHT AND GAIN MUSCLE WITH IT. IT WORKS.

I think there is no secret way to reduce weight. The only way is to keep yourself away from junk food and maintaining a diet pattern that allows you to take systematic food which is required by you rather than consuming in excess and a workout regime. Thanks

First, let me say that I have been struggling with being overweight for 30 years and have tried every pill and potion imaginable.
I have yoyoed back and forth and finally gave up.
Someone suggested that I eat 5-6 small meals a day and it works!!!!
Much to my shock....eating tiny meals often jump started my metabolism and I am slowly but surly losing 1-2 pounds a week and I am not suffering...never did suffer well...HA!
I eat off saucers and I eat 5 times a day and I feel great!
Hope this helps!

Honestly, I believe its all portions ! I think back to when I was a little Girl and gathering at my GrandMothers house every Sunday. Being that she was Italian she had a feast for all to be had, I am talking about soup to nuts galore and NO ONE was overweight. We ate whatever we wanted but in normal portion size... NOTHING was SUPERSIZED like we have today.

So my advise is to try that theory and see what happens.

All the Best to you

Here is the diet which worked for me and took me from 220 to 194 so far... Eat what ever the hell you like but go to the gym 5 days a week. When I was in the gym I worked hard, it was an hour of my day which I said to my self work your fricking butt off. So here is basically my gym plan.

30 minuets cardio
30 minuets lifting weights, varies from chest, back, legs, abs, biceps and triceps.

A good work out, well a good weight work out shouldn't take longer then 45 minuets. In the middle of that week, I just did 30 minuets cardio to give my body a rest from weights. Resting is important.

I should probably add I am 19 :P.

There are no secrets: eat less and work out more often. When you are at a restaurant, split your meal in half - eat one half and take home the other.

Ok, here's another view on the subject and this really helped me curve my eating habits and in getting healthy.(I have never been overweight due to genetics and a decently active lifestyle)

When I decided to cut out all unhealthy things in my life it was tough but I was determined. But for the longest time I COULDN'T BREAK THROUGH AND I COULDN'T FIGURE WHY.

Then it finally clicked!

Throughout this endeavor I WAS DETERMINED TO CUT OUT THE SUGARS AND ALL THAT TERRIBLE PROCESSED FOOD AND FAST FOOD. When doing this, it became my entire focus. "Don't do take that soda," I'd tell myself, "Don't do it!". 20 minutes later, guess what was in my hand.

Our problem is that we've developed an unhealthy habit and the negative side effects are what drives us to change. Therefore, we naturally focus cut out the problem. THE PROBLEM IS THAT YOU CAN'T CHANGE IF YOU HAVE THE SAME FOCUS.

Here's my advice. Workout and eat with aims to get healthy and be persistent. Change doesn't happen overnight but if you have the determination you WILL succeed. Get all of the bad foods out of your house and REPLACE them with good foods. In other words, instead of taking bad foods out of your house focus on bringing in good foods. When you workout, focus on looking and feeling better. Imagine all the benefits that come from this.

If there's enough interest about this I'll make an ebook and sell it once I get my credibility up and running. I can also make completely customized plans for a very cheap price if anyone's interested. We can get to know each other over PM or Skype and we can identify your obstacles and learn how to eliminate them as well as replace them.

Curious to what others think

**Food**

i) Eat a diet where about 50% (40-60%) comes from raw fruit and vegetables.



ii) Cut the refined sugars down to virtually zero.



iii) Find your target calorie intake for your current body weight, eat 80% of that each day.


**Exercise**

Exercise at least 30-45 minutes, 4 times a week.



**Time/consistency**


This for me is the crucial one.

Just like in your internet efforts, consistency wins. Keep this up for at least 10 months of the year, each and every year. It's not hard once you're in the habit.

Don't take fat burners. They are stimulants in a pill --pretty much legal amphetamines. A little unknown fact about stimulants is that yes they do work in the beginning and slightly speed up your metabolism by stimulating your adrenals, but after prolonged(1 week-2weeks) use they wind up depleting your adrenals causing adrenal fatigue or adrenal disease. Adrenal disease is when your body can't produce enough adrenaline(adrenal burn out) to support daily life which results in increased stress, skyrocketed fat storage, and decreased metabolism. Not too mention it can help onset insulin resistance.

Stay away from fat burners unless you want to gain more fat and shorten your life span and life quality.

CLA is good. You can get CLA from Grassfed beef. Cornfed/grainfed beef, IE most beef being sold has dramatically less CLA and Omega 3s.

One tip though, is get your fish oil with a good DHA and EPA ratio. Will help mood functioning, and possibly may aid in weightloss. By may, I mean maybe help burn an extra pound of fat per month. Not much, but on top of a solid foundation of eating right and exercising, its a little added bonus for just taking the pill. Like water, you can flush out 5-8lbs of fat a year just by drinking 2L of water a day. On it's own, its not really the best method to lose weight, but combined its like a do nothing bonus.

There are a million things you can do to lose weight. But I find there are four things that make the most difference for me:

1. Cut or eliminate flour and sugar. This is not a low-carb approach necessarily but it definitely targets the main causes of insulin resistance and ultimately diabetes.

2. Treat your weight issue as a health issue. You aren't unhealthy because you are overweight - you are overweight because you are unhealthy. Look to adrenals, thyroid, liver, ovaries for issues and correct through more healthy eating.

3. When you choose a diet, make it conform to your personality, not vice versa. If you are not a detail freak, you will never be the kind of person to write down everything you eat, plan your daily food intake weeks in advance, etc. In general, if your personality type is focused on closure, you will gravitate towards more details and planning. If your personality type is focused on openness, you will crave spontaneity. In that case, you won't plan your diet but you will need to make sure your environment is filled with the right kinds of food so you won't find yourself in a pinch.

4. A nugget from creative style theory - coping behavior needs to be rewarded! Find a way to reward yourself for sticking to a diet without affecting the diet itself. Sugar free chocolate does the trick for me .

I was lucky enough to lose 100 pounds in a 2 year period several years ago. And yes I have kept it off.

As far as a secret the best I can give you is to switch 80% of your beverage consumption to plain water. I still consume a gallon of water a day or more and it all started when I lost my weight.

I started forcing myself back then towards a goal of a gallon a day. A huge amount of appetite comes from dehydration. Americans are notoriously dehydrated as sweet drinks cause dehydration.

I walked 2.5 miles on relatively flat terrain twice a day in 25 minutes per walk.

Those were my biggest lifestyle changes - when I started drinking all that water I started eating a lot less without effort.

It can be done. I lost my 100 pounds at age 49 - so don't let anyone tell you "you are too old to lose it".

Drink a BIG glass of water 15 minutes before every meal.

Eat only half a serving where you would normally eat a whole.

Same goes for drinking (alcoholic beverages & soda).

If you feel hungry in between meals drink water and/or a big cup of green tea.

Why does anyone want to loose weight? To feel better? Feel more accepted, more in control and enjoy life better? Look beyond weight to the other side. See it just as a hurdle to be jumped over. Keep in you mind on the lifestyle that you want, not what you don't want. Diets won't work unless you get slim on your head first.

If you're looking for creative (and delicious!) ways to enhance your weight loss efforts, here's a fresh collection of six slimming foods you should add to your repertoire. I'm a firm believer that dieting and losing weight doesn't mean you have to subsist on bland, boring cardboard. With that in mind, I've put together a list of strategic skinny eats, each of which has its own unique way of satisfying your taste buds while blunting your appetite. I encourage you to peruse my list and use these tasty bites to your advantage!
1. Pumpkin Pudding: Decadent, creamy pudding for less than 150 calories--and it helps you lose weight! Just combine a 6-ounce container of nonfat vanilla yogurt with ½ cup canned 100% pure pumpkin puree and a dash of cinnamon. The pumpkin bulks up the yogurt--already a protein-rich, nutrient-packed food--and adds a hefty dose of fiber. This winning combo of protein and fiber expands in your stomach, keeping you full long after you finish, so you're not looking for more munchies an hour later.
2. Vegetable Soup: Studies have shown that just by starting a meal with a fiber-rich bowl of broth-based veggie soup, you can reduce your total calorie intake by 20 percent. That's because this "veggie first course" helps to fill you up, so you wind up eating less at the main meal.
3. Cucumber Tomato Salad: Thanks to their high percentage of water (95%!), cucumbers are low-calorie, high volume, and top-notch for weight loss! Slice up one whole cucumber plus a medium tomato, then toss with light vinaigrette or unlimited vinegar (balsamic or red wine is delish) plus 1 teaspoon olive oil. The entire salad has only 125 calories!
4. Ginger Green Tea: Nursing a warm mug of tea is a calorie-free way to de-stress after a long day without falling prey to emotional eating. As an added bonus, research suggests that regularly drinking green tea may give you a slight calorie-burning advantage. Steep your tea with a thin slice of ginger root for an extra punch of flavor.
5. Fiery Chicken Salad: Adding a few dashes of fiery hot sauce to your food slows down your eating big time so you're less likely to eat past the point of fullness. For a simple lunch, whip up a chicken salad with diced chicken breast, 1 tablespoon reduced-fat mayo, hot sauce to taste, and any diced veggies on hand. Serve over a bed of lettuce (and have a glass of water handy!).
6. Shrimp Cocktail: At around 8 calories a piece, shrimp are a fabulous source of lean protein, which helps rev your metabolism and keeps you feeling full for hours. Next time you dine out, start your meal with a shrimp cocktail appetizer. When you're eating at home, dunk your shrimp in this could-not-be-easier cocktail sauce recipe: simply combine 1 tablespoon ketchup with 1 teaspoon bottled horseradish.

Don’t take any pills and make sure you eat throw out the day as normal. Went vegan, gave up meat and went all green within a month I dropped from a size 10 to a size 8. See if that help you.

Wow! So many methods... Hope mine wasn't mentioned.
A friend of mine is a amateur boxer and he uses really effective method to loose weight - dehydration. You know that 80% of our body consists of water, so when you lose it your weight decreases. He does it when he wants to box in an light weight catagory.

The secret is this: diet and exercise. just do this and i promise by easter you will have lost a lot of weight:

Morning:Green Tea without sugar or milk. Thirty minutes later do this 1)Four sets of jump squats. 2)Four sets of sit ups. 3) Four sets of press ups. 4) Four sets of pull ups from a door in your home. Thats it for the workout. should take you half an hour. do it every other day for the rest of your life(no excuses!)

As for food: eat anything you want but it must be 70 percent protein and 30 percent carbs. The carbs must be mostly vegetables, brown bread , pasta, and fruits. make sure you eat four times a day and they should be smakk to meduim sized portions.

Drink at least ten pint sized glasses of water every day. That's it. this is the secret way to lose weight.

Hey there!

I wish there was a quick secret tip! But as far as I know there's not... and i've looked!

In my experience the best way to lose weight is consistently eating healthy and exercising....it doesn't take much either. Just mix healthy food in with your normal diet and then 2-3 times a week workout,as little as 20 minutes of cardio will change everything! Its definitely a pain in the butt but at least your doing it the healthy way?!

Please you all, no need to be shy, tell me your secret method of loosing weight.

Tell me the secret you gran taught you.

I will try anything.

Please....
Notice how everyone replies based upon their own personal beliefs and life experiences.... Lots of answers based upon pills, supplements, exercise, books, programs, lifestyles, gurus, etc.

Is any one of them the perfect answer? It must be for them... but is it for you?

I think it really depends on you, your metabolism, your lifestyle, and your character. Just because something worked for the vegan writer doesn't mean it will work for you unless you have the belief in the science and are willing and able to make the shift and are committed to follow through.

I, like you, was struggling with this problem and not finding a solution that fit me and my lifestyle and belief system. I finally figured it out... I have something that I put together myself, based on my experiences and what fits into my lifestyle.... it seems to be working well.

I'm writing an ebook on that subject and when it's done I'll be happy to provide a free copy for you. Maybe my experience will help you.

PM me with your contact info and I'll send it to you when it's completed.

Best of luck!

Instead of trying to lose weight concentrate on adding something to your life instead. I hate to lose anything. Loss is a negative word and most people in this forum seem very positive. Concentrate on adding things to your life that will shift your focus off your weight loss. Why not try something like: for every bad thing that you eat, eat two things that are good for you as well. That way you can eat as much bad stuff as you want because if your eating twice as much good food straight after, you will actually be eating the same amount that you always eat but 2/3's healthier. Less Is More & More health is Less Unhealth!

I'll throw mine into the mix. I lost 10lbs (I have about 120 to go) since Jan 4th using the methods of Dr. Joel Fuhrman in his book, "Eat to Live." Lots green veggies, very few simple carbs, and no meat(for me, little meat and more tofu). I also use Sunrider foods because they keep the cravings at bay.

I am also diabetic, so this method helps control my blood sugars. The veggies are high in nutrition and low in calories, which is why this works so well for me. It's helping me form new eating habits, too, since I had been on 2 diabetic drugs for years(and other drugs before those) that actually stimulated my appetite. Funny how doctors never tell you the side effects of the drugs they prescribe! So check with your doc and see if any meds you may be taking actually stimulate appetite. No wonder I was hungry 20 minutes after eating a big meal. 24/7 hunger is no fun, and I lost 20 lbs last spring just by going off those two meds.

There are lots of good ideas on this thread. Just pick one and go for it.

Take a short survey. No sales pitch.

I don't really have any secret but this method has been good for me in the last 6 months.

What I am doing is:

*Excercise (I prefer running down the street).
*Eat with atleast 1 meat or no meat, 1 bread and 1 fruit.
*Veggies are always allowed.
*Drink atleast 9 glasses of water (Yes its 9 or more not 8)
*Focus yourself in the word "I'll loose pounds today!"

And you are ready to go

It's amazing how few people put EXERCISE in their "secrets".

What's gonna have more effect on your health and weight....a glass of water 4 times a day or exercise 4 times a week?!

Be Healthy -- while loosing weight ! That's just not important -- it's the only permanent way!

If your weight loss style is painful -- it will revert ( so select a happy way to do it -- be yourself-your style)
What works for someone need not for you.

However some things remain constant.

TRY THIS !

Drink water first before your breakfast, lunch or dinner ( also ensure you stop eating before you know that another mole of food is going to make you FEEL a little heavy

-- and don't drink water after eating anything ( drink before)

Have a earlier dinner -- when you go to bed -- ensure that you really feel light.


..................... succeed the above step ... then reward yourself with some entertainment

.................................................. ..............

Then you can GO for some physical exercises ( even here ensure you adapt your own style --love sport -- take one up, love to dance -- Just Dance your way out )

Just feel good , feel happy ---- you'll lose weight, gain confidence and will stay healthy and smiling

You can eat alot more frequent if you eat smaller portions and your metabolism burns more.

Cut the fat and that is that.

I am glad you asked..

USANA health sciences has what you need.

A RESET 5-day fiber cleanse is definitely a way to start you off in the right direction. I know many people, including my GF that has lost a lot of weight using the RESET and the phases in the future months. After the 5 days, you're cravings will be pretty much gone. It's pretty amazing, Even my stubborn girlfriend believes in it..

5-10 lbs lost guaranteed within 5 days. It provides great tasting shakes (I don't like vanilla very much though) and nutritional bars as well as 5 days worth of multivitamins(#1 in Quality. Check out the Comparative guide to Nutritional Supplements by Lyell Macwilliams at Barnes and Nobles) . The 5 day RESET removes the waste that has built up inside of you through out your life.

I could talk for days about what it's done for people I personally know. But I highly recommend you check them out.

Welcome to USANA.com!

Check out the products, and I can get you a discount on any of the products. My family, My friends, and I use most of the products.

I cannot send PM's so Email me at BorjaPerez.J@Gmail.com

Thank you all and I hope I helped a little. And I hope all of us get to where we want to go with Internet Marketing and also health wise.

Take Care,

Please....
Eat what I want in moderation and get to the gym. I like sweets as much as anyone, BUT they tend to put fat on me, so I eat less. I also eat healthy. One other note, I hate aerobic type exercise (treadmill etc), but I play a lot..a lot of raquetball and that burns the calories and let's me be competitive.
