Girls, Weight loss recommendations?

[Anonymous]

I've been trying to lose weight for over a year now. I've seen doctors as well as started several workout programs. All of done is gain weight and fuck up my confidence. Any reccomendations? (sorry for the profanity. I'm upset :( )

Drink a lot of water, this helps speed up your metabolism, 8 glasses a day (not the tiny glasses) is what models drink and they swear by it for their complexion and figure. Cut down on bread and rice if you can, they are hard for your body to break down properly. Quinoa is a very healthy rice substitute. Make sure you eat small, regular meals, don't starve yourself because this can actually slow the metabolism. Try to be active. But also, don't be too hard on yourself. You don't need to be stupidly thin, just healthy and unrestricted by your weight. Calculate your BMI (you can do this online) to find out where you are in the scheme of things (healthy, overweight, obese, underweight, etc.).

Eat very little carbs, drink plenty of water and green tea, eat lots of salad, avoid smoothies and high sugar, fat foods, do half an hour of cardio a day as well as exercises like crutches, squats, lunges etc.

Exactly

Do more sports. Cycling is a good way to loose weight.

I would say try to eat a lot of protein throughout the day and drink a lot of water.

have you tried clean eating? or paleo diets?

[Asker]

My doctor told me that I personally should do paleo and my eating is pretty clean

[Lyndsielee666]

do Paleo then.. xD there's lots of recipes for it on pinterest.
drinking water helps also.
and from what i learned you usually gain before you lose.
don't give up (:

[Asker]

Oh sorry I mean't should not, because I'm technically still growing she thinks I might lose nutrients

[Lyndsielee666]

ahhh. there's still ways you can get nutrients from it.
peanut butter has a lot of the stuff you need.
taking vitamins as well.
and drink lots of water. you'll gain water weight but it does go away

[Asker]

Oh okay! I'll look into it. Thanks!
