Weight loss tips

Stand By, our resident expert will be along shortly to answer your question.

Me at the moment l walk through shopping centres, and dodge Cops.

Not an expert here Here's what I do, though...

Long term help has included exercise / fitness activities 5 times week on average. Mainly using the YMCA now, due to covid-19 restrictions elsewhere, I enjoy swimming laps, boxing class & TRX / Zumba / Jazzercise alternating to change things up a bit and have fun, meet new peeps, etc.

At home, I enjoy walks with hubby and biking around the neighborhood.

Goal is to try and get in 1-2 activities a day, and keep portions & snacks / junk food under control, drink plenty of water (skip all the sodas and sugary drinks as much as possible).

Some plans have sure helped short term: Weight Watchers (WW) and Nurtisystem (get their starter kits and supplement food / beverage items at WalMart.) Not into counting points / calories and logging day in and day out, though, longterm.

DEFINITELY not an expert and would never pretend to be an armchair fitness guru, but the best advice FOR ME - above exercise or good sleep or anything else that's no doubt important - is restricting the eating window to 6 or 8 hours a day (ie, if you finish eating dinner at 7:30 pm, you'd eat NO calories -- coffee ok -- until 1:30 pm the following day). Found it surprisingly sustainable and equally surprisingly effective! (a slow fat burn, not an overnight solution)

I walk one mile a day. There is a food mall one mile from the house that I walk to once or twice a week.

About a quarter the way is the YADA Deli where I pop in and have a piece of cheese cake and a cup of coffee.

Another quarter of mile is a Dairy Queen where I pop in and have a vanilla milk shake.

Another quarter of a mile is a Planet Fitness where I pop in and give everyone the finger.

By the time I get to the food mall I am exhausted, so I have an 240 calorie energy drink with two M&Ms because I am on a diet.

Then I call Uber for a ride home.

Well I generally only once a day at dinner but do have a very lite lunch sometimes as well 2-3 days a week. A night or two per week, I may have snacks of some type. So I more or less do intermittent fasting already. However sometimes I have too large of dinner portions plus beer so you still can gain weight for those reasons.

When I've had my weight drift back up, there are a couple of successful ways I dropped weight.

One - I do 72 hour fasts. I start every morning anyway with a mug of water with a tablespoon of raw apple cider vinegar (with the "mother"). I also drink my usual coffee. I'll drink green tea hot or iced with some apple cider vinegar & lots of water. Sometimes I may have a chicken or beef bullion cube added to a cup of hot water to make sure I have salt in my system on the 2nd or third day. Generally I drop 5 lbs or more during a 72 hour fast. I think doing a 72 hour fast once every 2-3 months is a very good idea for a variety of health reasons besides weight loss. It resets your system & boosts your immunity.

Another route that works for me is using high-absorption weight loss spray with Garcinia Cambogia 3x times a day. Spray under your tongue & hold it in your mouth for a minute before swallowing as it absorbs into your bloodstream faster. Use 15-30 minutes before eating/drinking anything. (I use other nutritional sprays as well... yeah I sell them)

Hiking and landscaping also worked well... plus it was enjoyable. I even used to bounce on a jogging tramp daily which worked but admit I'm not much of an exercise fan though I know I should be.

I went to the gym once. My trainer gave me some great advice:
"Eat clean. Train Mean. Get Lean. Sweat is just your fat crying."

seat less, exercise more, or is that too practical?

Hey, I want to gain weight I spend most of the time in front of the computer and I don't even feel hungry bc I am totally focused on my work sometimes I don't even take breakfast what should eat instead?

Actually I would suggest you guys to properly take care of your body, eat healthy, exercise for at least 30 minutes a day. It is not that hard! Take baby steps, you will get there.

Ha!


Anywan eats anythin' I cook ... they ain't nevah eatin' again.

Set a goal weight (e.g. current weight, minus 50lbs.)
Calculate back to what you can healthily lose in a week/month (usually 2lbs a week, or 8-10lbs per month. So, for the above example, lose 50lbs in 25 weeks.)
Hit that.
Set new weekly/monthly goal.
Hit that.
Repeat last 2 steps until initial goal weight is met.
Set new goal weight. If goal weight is what you desire, make your goal to be to maintain that weight.

The big weight loss is the goal, but snowballing the smaller weight losses is simpler to achieve, and allows you to feel that satisfaction much more regularly.

A dear friend went on a calorie-resricted diet of herbal tea and nuts. He was doing quite well - losing one pound every day for over a year. But he disappeared.

[quoteAt least 30 minutes,....l spend all day swirling my mouse about, and plotting the overthrow of the Wooster Krispy Kreme.][/quote]

Groan l won't mention the first one, since l have no comebacks, and the second one goes without saying.

And flattery will get you everywhere!

I hate to say it but there is a restaurant almost opposite Claude's business, which sells Kebabs, if l remember my Google street search while in a drunken stupor and watching Arthur bender search.

He risks his life daily for a takeout order, or commands one of his minions.

The Krispy Kreme is location a fair distance from his store, and is located in a fast food hub, and onlookers have reported that they have seen a overweight balding guy sitting in his car slapping his hands against his head in torment.

I used to run off the pounds in my twenties, which doesn't work that well in your thirties.

Weight Watchers and simply drinking mores water have done wonders for me. Since last Christmas, I've dropped 20 lbs.

I personally never succeeded to stay on a diet properly. So I just count calories and try to gain more proteins and eat less sugar.

Indeed! Get a gout flare a few times and you'll be surprised how quickly you suddenly become an expert in managing sugar, salt, blood flow and poor genetics. Self-proclaimed expert here: Best weight loss tips I can give:

1) Walk fast at least a mile, twice per day, "7" days a week.
2) Find a school or someplace in that route where you can walk the stairs and get some resistance in your walking.
3) Pump iron for 3 sets of each body part, in non-consecutive days.
4) Drink more water than you think you need to.
5) Ignore your children when they ask you if you want ice cream...especially if they volunteer to scoop it.

Finally, none of that matters if you're going to continue drinking alcohol and soft drinks. They both have to go in order for you to lose any real amount of weight...and keep it off over time. Two of the hardest things to do with cousin Covid hanging around, but must be done if weight loss is really desired.

Something must become more important than what you have to give up to lose the weight.

Whattos are surrogates for no-one.

An effective way of losing weight that I know is portion control. You just have to control your intake of proteins, carbs, fats and such. Then you can eat whatever you want but of course in a limited quantity. But for someone who is a big foodie like me, I eat whatever I want but then focus on doing a lot of exercise. Also, eating at the right time is very important, eating at odd timings is one of the reasons you become bloated

Best way to start loosing weight is walking, You can start walking at any time. It does need any special time, special gear , special place or special talent. It is always free, You can run or walk in your neighbourhood or parks. it is easy and efficient.
