Weight loss... Help?

[Anonymous]

If I am currently 71kg and I have began to eat one meal a day with no snacks and fit in at least a 20/10 minute exercise each day ( started this yesterday) with my goal being to get down to at least 67kg. How long would it take me to achieve this goal?

thats bad, eating one meal a day is terrible for ur metabolism. you should eat about 6 times a day. 3 meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) and 2 snacks. keep track of ur macros and calories to get better results and workout, make sure u find something u enjoy doing, so that is not a torture, that way you'll stay motivated. results will come, but u have to be patient coz they won't come in a week, take progress pics every month, i wouldn't suggest to look at the scale that much.
there is no way to do this fast and efficiently, sure there are diets that would make u lose weight really fast, but they are not good for u and the results are not permanent.
just eat clean. look for recipes to make yummy food.

You should be consuming at least 1200-1500 calories a day in order to lose weight safely. Limit your sodium intake to between 1000-1200 mg a day. As for snacks eat clean such as veggies or Greek yogurt. Exercise at least 30 minutes a day, 3-5x a week with cardio or calisthenics. Try to burn off as much of the calories you consume as you can. Elliptical are a great way to achieve this. If you don't consume enough calories your body not only suffers, but you could begin to lose hair due to the lack of proper nutrition. I wish you the best of luck :)

A very long time... you might notice a pound or two a week for a 2-3 weeks, maybe even a month, but then your body will adapt and will begin storing as much as it can in order to keep you going throughout the day.

There is a complete science behind what kinds of food to eat, when to eat them throughout the day, and how much to eat of each food type to eat in order to obtain specific goals such as weight loss.

Tip... eating six times a day will make you loose weight much more effectively and prevent your body from storing and turning what you eat into fat... provided you eat the right types of foods, at the right time, and in the appropriate quantities.

Get on google and start researching.

STOP. that is not good for you. when you do not at least eat 1500 calories (for a woman) your body goes in survival modus and starts stacking up all energy as fat for long term survival. eventually your body will start to self cannibalize (breakdown muscle tissue to burn as energy together with fat mass. eat three meals a day of clean food filled with nutrition. no snacking, no junk food, no soda. your work out session of 20 minutes a day is a good start.

if you keep continuing you will look like a hungry skeleton.

You can't stop eating if you want to lose weight efficiently. Eat at least three meals a day and continue exercising. Because yeah you might see a little difference with what you're doing rn but it won't last long. Your body will start stocking fat faster because it'll think it's what it is supposed to do. Eat.

You need to eat to lose. Make wise choices and eat four small meals per day, about 3 hours apart. Include fruits, veggies, no fat dairy and low fat protein. Watch the carbs, sugar & saturated fat. Drink 6 cups of water daily and you're pretty much guaranteed to lose around 1 kilo per week & keep it off

No no no,
That will slow down your metabolism!
Speed it up with 4 small meals a day.
Plant based is best.

Only one meal? Lol I think that's worst way to do it

It depends on you

What do you mean?

I mean. Losing weight changes body to body. I can't exactly tell how long it takes

Okay thank you I was just wondering if anyone had a idea I knew it wasn't going to be exact
