How can I loose weight quickly?

[Anonymous]

Okay so I recently lost 40 pounds and I feel amazing Im 5'6 and I used to weigh 200lbs but now I weigh 160 and I really wanna get down to 100 before I have to deal with school or go out in public but school is gonna start soon and I don't wanna be fat for the first day ya know? I mean I know that I'll probably still look fat at my current goal weight but I'd like to look less fat ya know? So any tips? Or meal plans?(I'm vegan btw)

Losing 60 pounds safely will take a year. When it comes the weight loss it's easy to shed the weight that made you obese but it gets harder the closer you get to skinny. You're first going to have to reduce your calorie count to under 2000. There will be hunger pains but eventually your stomach will shrink. Once you get use to an under 2k diet you will have to commit to 4 hours of cardio per day. Overtime you will ad hours to that until you can jog 5 miles in 45 mins as a warm up. By then you should be 10-15 pound away from your goal. Now you drop your calorie count to under 1000 and ad weight lifting to your workout. In a month or two you should hit your goal. After that it's just the easy part of maintaining weight which means 2-3 hours of working out with a controlled 2-3K diet.

U should be care full ur goal weight seems to thin for a girl with it height. A hundred thin for a girl that like 5'2. u don't sound bad at were u are and u should be happy and proud of ur progress. Running and swimming can help u lose weight but for u I woudnt recommend going under 130. Also since ur vegan u should talk to a doctor or nutritionist to make sure ur staying healthy

Cpngrats on the weight loss! thats great. id take your time. i know its frustrating yo want it gone now. but think about it., would you rather be uncomfortable for a while longer but have long lasting results.. patience is a vibe:) anyhow you can healthily lose 1-2 pounds a week. in three months thats 30 pounds. you'd be at a very good weight for your height. though in my opinion you should aim for 1 pound not 2 a week bc you want your skin to get a chance to adjust , also, you want t eat an amount closer to what ill be eating to maintain. crash diets are not great. so id figure out how much you need calorie wise, to be 160 then subtract 500 calories day. see how it goes:)

[AriadneSky]

dont run if its not your thing. you can get hurt. especially of your weight is a bit heavy. try swimming. its easy on the joints and gets all your muscles moving :)

But I don't Know how to swim

140 is a healthy weight for your height. Don't go lower. There exist no miracle diet. All crash diets are yoyo diets. You quickly gain weight again. You need to burn fat by doing low intensity cardio and cut carbs to your daily minimum. You also need enough proteins (there are vegetable equivalents) so you don't loose muscle mass.

[HonestWhiteGuy]

That is a lot of weight to lose so you want to talk to a doctor and make sure you are doing it the right way.

I would say aim for 130 and see how you feel there, I think 100 might be a little low actually for a girl your height.

Being vegan should help and do some cardio exercises (jogging/biking/swimming) as well as squats and stuff

i knew a girl who was huge but took up running everyday. now she is tiny

[Asker]

Running? Oh no sir me no like.

[wankiam]

so stay big then lol

[Asker]

Okay you defiantly have a point I guess I'll just suck it up and do some sinful running

[wankiam]

or cycling. thats what i do to keep in shape. oh and dont load up on carbs

You cannot lose 60 lbs before school. So stop even entertaining the notion.

Keep doing what you did to lose the 40 and do it slowly and do it right.

if you go to 100lbs you will be underweight

[Asker]

that's better than being fat

[Zendrya]

no it isn't. You should go see a doctor about a potential eating disorder developing or tell your mom or something. You should weigh around 130lbs

[AriadneSky]

I think its a matter of lifestyle more so than weight. I am 5 ft7 & 95 pounds. I am a runner and considered very heathy. Although id agree dropping 100 pounds at once is probably not the healthiest way to go.

:)

[Zendrya]

@AriadneSky you are considered healthy according to an actual doctor because that sounds sickly to me

[AriadneSky]

yes thats what i meant by considered healthy. also as i say im a runner i run marathons. obviously nt sickly. and i get my period. my lats are perfect and i dont have any indication of wasting. it isn't the weight that is important but the nutrition and life style. bmi is a very rough guide. what is good for one person is not necessarily right for another. it also does not take account for the fact a lot of thin people are thin bc they are sick. cancer aids wasting disease etc. so what measures as generally healthy and unhealthy does not have to be bc the weight itself but the 'causes' of the wight. just like heavier people may be heavy bc they are inactive or eat poorly but being heavy can also mean muscular and athletic.

In my experience, you can easily be healthy at a relatively low weight as long as your nutrition is good. you are getting enough for your weight and getting proper amounts of protein vitamins etc. my weight is not so exceptional when you go to warmer climates.

[AriadneSky]

bodies adjust. averages also go up and down :)

[AriadneSky]

to be clear im NOT saying she should aim for 100. i think she should take it slow and see where her body gravitates. but point is 100 pounds at 5 ft 6, doesn't necessarily mean anything without context. i now people much thinner just living their lives. granted it doesn't look great though.

[Zendrya]

@AriadneSky Fair enough and maybe it would also be fair to say that if she plans on losing so much weight especially at her age it would be beneficial to seek medical advice to make sure she is still being healthy.

[AriadneSky]

yes i agree. always good to seek medical advice. though subtracting a bit from your daily allowance isn't going to out anyone in danger. but losing weight its good to keep tabs on your blood work. i definitely dont think rapid weight loss is good. its not necessary either.

Ask your doctor for a diet and exercise plan

[Asker]

All they ever do is tell me to go see a nutritionist and my mom won't take me so I can't really do anything but Google stuff lol
