My goal is to workout everyday for 2 hours a day, eating like this

*Sigh* Please, no, stop, don't. A lot of things are possible and a lot of people do crazy things, but that doesn't mean you should. This is not a good idea for several reasons. 1) That much constant strenuous exercise takes a toll on the body. Your body needs rest and to heal itself, and going hardcore everyday for long periods is putting your body through excessive stress that will most likely lead to injury. 2) For 2 hours a day of exercise you actually would need to eat much more than listed otherwise your body will begin hold on to your fat stores b/c it thinks you're starving. 3) So, let's say you actually make it to the end and you've lost all this weight... there is a GLARING problem with this plan and that is that you would have done 2 months of 2 hours a day, eating scraps, to lose the weight. The minute you stop doing this level of hard core work and starvation which you can't sustain, you will begin to gain all the weight back because your body will have gotten used to having to do all this to drop weight, but once you don't do it anymore or can't, or stop, the weight will come back on.

Please lose weight the healthy way at 1-2lbs a week. Why do all this work and all this crazy stuff for a temporary weight loss. I would much rather be healthy for the rest of my life having lost weight safely and over the long term, then only fit into a dress for like a few weeks.

That's A LOT to lose for a 14 year old, and just because other people have done it that doesn't mean it is safe. For example, someone who is 200 pounds will lose a lot more weight than someone who is 120 pounds. Also, it depends on your height and your muscle mass. Someone who is tall and has a lot of muscle will weigh more than someone who is short and has no muscle, even though the tall/muscle person is actually healthier. So don't worry about weight so much, just try to be healthy. You can be healthy by working out and eating right. And it sounds like you have a good plan for that! Wraps and salads are definitely good, but you might not want to eat tuna every day lol. Try some turkey or chicken - high in protein but not a lot of fat.

It's good you picked a form of cardio you may enjoy. Let yourself have a cheat day from time to time. The most motivated people I've seen do it for themselves. They want to be healthy. The least motivated are those who want to lose as fast as possible for purposes of body image. Fat loss is a long and tough journey. If you are in a rush it means you don't yet understand the hardship you are going to have to push through.

As everyone else is saying, you are trying to lose too much weight too fast. 5 pounds a week? That's roughly a 2500 calorie deficit everyday.

Honestly you should be happy just losing 1-2. 3 if you can run your ass off.

Motivation won't be the problem. You're going to be too tired to workout.

Dang girl you weigh more than me!!! Loll. Bad metabolism? I'm 205 lbs at 6 feet. Keep in mind most of my weight is muscle.

But enough of that, diet is key. Try eating a lot of veggies. I lost 30 lbs in a month due to diet, burning enough stored calories, smoking tons of dabs and weed (most heay pot smokers seem to be not fat and I never get munchies). I was 235 before changing my diet mostly and my fat went away quite fast. I also stopped drinking booze and sugary drinks. It was for blood pressure reasons I changed my lifestyle a bit.

Just don't give up. Try using your mind more too. You burn calories trying to think. And tons of cardio but im a guy who can do physical labour jobs at a full 8 hour shift.

The best thing is to be realistic. Losing 40lbs in 2 months is just way too fast. The best way to go about it is to lose 1-2lbs a week.

You will be starving your body and make yourself sick. You won't lose weight like you are planning on and then when you are done your routine you will gain it all back. It's far better to want to take care of your health, eat healthy and let the weight take care of itself.

[ConsultantIsBack]

Go for it!!! Don't be disappointed if you don't exactly hit your goal as it's very aggressive, but with that diet and workout plan you can do it soon enough!!

But, still be patient, fitness takes time, just like no one becomes fat overnight either. Good luck!

[apple24]

haha! I became fat overnight lol!

[ConsultantIsBack]

@apple24 Hahaha whatever!

This is not healthy. Sustainable weight loss is 2lbs a week, you're attempting more than double that.

You are risking injuring yourself, you aren't giving yourself any rest days, you aren't doing any weight training, you aren't getting enough nutrition to fuel your body and repair it.

Weight loss and fitness are lifestyle changes, not something you blast through in two months.

That's not healthy. You're starving yourself and going to lose energy PLUS gain it all back. Be realistic. Maybe you should have started your diet earlier, not wait for summer to be almost here and then try and lose weight fast ( which 1. doesn't work 2. isn't healthy 3. make's you yo-yo diet for a long time. )

[funny_strange_man]

Do not workout everyday because your body needs rest days. You should eat fruits and vegetables. Vegetables should be ftom each color of the rainbow. You could take a multivitamin but there are nutrients that your body needs that a multivitamin does not provide. You can cause yourself to be tired with the little amount you think you should ear regardless of the amount of sleep you get. The cause of it will be the lack of nutrients or amount of the nutrients that you do get.

Don't rush things. If you really want to lose weight on a long term basis, you won't exhaust yourself every day and stop every single eating habit. I think, from a personal experience, that you should progressively start lowering your food intake and increase your exercice routines. And by "lowering the food intake" I mean still eating what you usually eat but in a normal quantity and mostly stopping sugars and carbohydrates.

When do you work out?

3 x a week i'd suggest cutting cardio to an hour and adding an hour of resistance work. Resistance work is more strongly associated with weight loss.

Depending on when you're doing your exercise, i might flip the breakfast to something else.

I wouldn't eat tuna 14 times a week by the way. That mercury. Mix up fish, lean chicken, etc.

I wouldn't count on 40 lbs, but i think you'll lose at least 20, which is damn good.

Add a cheat meal per week.

[Riggers]

Why do people try and rush weight loss so damn fast? You're trying too loose almost 90lb here... That shit takes months to a year. If you try and do that in 2 months, You're going to be utterly fucked by the end of it.

[9mfeo]

That's a great plan if you're trying to kill yourself.

There is no healthy way to lose that amount of weight in that short amount of time. You'll sure look pretty in your coffin though.

[9mfeo]

Not to mention the heavy metal poisoning you're going to get from eating that much tuna. So maybe you *won't* look so pretty in your coffin.

I can be done.
1. Find a Herbalife distributor and get on the programme. I have lost 14kg of fat and gained 4kg of muscle on it.
2. Go to a gymnasium and have one of the personal trainers create a programme for you.

[jamesdegod]

yea your gonna have a fuck ton of health problems if you do that, you should be losing around 8lbs per month otherwise your gonna lose a lot of muscle and say goodbye to your hormone balance. Also your diet has like no carbs, another unhealthy way to lose weight and training 2 hours a day is stupid and with the low calorie intake your body is going to go catabolic.

You have no idea what you are doing

[WeaponZero]

This is extremely unhealthy and that is extreme under eating for that type of activity level. You are causing your body harm.

[Anonymous]

You can make it more interesting by getting the calorie count of all that food and eating an equivalent amount of calories and different foods. It seems like that diet is quite limited with little nutrition...

[Dtegesd123]

not happening, you could do it on your current routine if you were 310lbs though

[Polocrew]

Things we learned from video , prolly gayest things I've watched in while and I've watched two chicks making out last week

1) She lost mostly her muscles and not fat
2) she's still fat
3) her dancing sux
4) don't do it

[Prince_teddy4u]

Awesome. If you lose weight, add me in your chart too for fast lose. As I'll finish up all your food and you'll be thin soon.

[MoonlitSonata]

You prooably could but it wouldn't be healthy
