My diet consists mainly of;

1. eggs and egg whites

2. fruits and vegies

3. chicken and tuna

4. sprouted grain bread

5. raw nuts

6. dark choc(sugar-free) for my sweet tooth

7.water and green tea.

Dont know what I'm doing wrong. Sometimes I cave, but I make up for it by eating less the rest of the day or the next day. Try hit the gym around 4 times a week, would go more if I could just either working or studying.

Starving yourself is basically the opposite way to lose weight. Your body will hold onto the fat thinking that you're in some sort of trouble. A speedy metabolism is what helps your body shed pounds and cutting out food will slow down your metabolism. Your body isn't stupid.

What I suggest, and what worked for me after trying many diets unsuccessfully was to cut out sugars in my diet. Sugars are the main cause of weight gain, especially in younger people.

I cut out sugars in my diet and lost 15 lbs in 3 months. I know you have a shorter time span to work with, but you will see results in a short amount of time if you simple cut that out of your diet.

Yeh see I have a huge sweet tooth, but I am 100% dedicated and I want to do it long-term, so how on earth did you cut out sugar? Even fruits? because I love apples. What did you eat on a daily basis?

My family has diabetes issues. My dad was diagnosed last year so I followed the same diet that he followed. You need to eat 3 meals a day, with 3 snacks. So your eating schedule should look something like this if you were to get up at say, 9 A.M.

9 AM - Breakfast

11 AM - Small snack

1 PM - Lunch

3 PM - Snack

5 PM - Dinner

7 PM - Snack

There are a lot of websites that could explain what you are allowed to eat better than I can. Start looking up "diabetic diets." I hope that helps. :)

if you starve yourself and workout excessively your body has no choice but to shed weight, I did the whole lose weight quick thing that way and your body actually craves sugar I lost 40 lbs in 3 months 75 lbs overall and my diet consisted of non diet soda and gatorade, I think people just don't get a real workout

[Asker]

Well there is no way in hell I can starve myself because I love food too much, so sugar free it is! thanks so much! oh and so admirable of you to go on a diabetic diet to help out your dad, would have been much easier for him to have his daughter help:)

[Anonymous]

thanks for asking this! I wanted to know too :)

if you hit the gym with a rigorous weight training regimen you'll definitely lose inches, but not necessarily pounds. resistance training exercises have been proven to be the most effective way of burning fat, however, because you're also building muscle at the same time, the scale doesn't necessarily reflect your progress like it would be with something more aerobic. and no it won't leave you adding unsightly manly muscle bulk if you do it right. as far as diet goes, it depends on what type of workout program you wanted to undergo. for more info feel free to contact me.

Definately down for weight training, I prefer that over cardio and I know that I would see better results with weight training (I am not one of those girls that believes that doing heavy weights will turn me into schwarzenegger)

[Anonymous]

workout twice a day and eat one meal a day, workout before breakfast eat a brunch (or not) then burn it off again later in the day, a lot of the female answers sound like basic weight lost tips not quick ones, going through hell is how you lose weight really fast, then you go back to all the diet plans

[Anonymous]

cut out all drinks except for water (dont drink diet soda, diet tea, etc).

work out 5 days a week combining weights and cardio.

increase protein intake, fruits, etc

avoid sweets, etc.

dont' starve yourself

youll gain it back (and gain more than you lost)

[Anonymous]

Basically what everyone has said haha! But by going on a raw diet (fruits veggies etc.) without all the processed foods you will be a-ok! I would also suggest taking a vitamin as well, nothing wrong with a little extra vitamins. Your workouts are key! My friends and I worked out like crazzzzyy before going on vacation. We did HIT High.Intensity.training. So we would do a slower run for a minute then would sprint for 30 seconds. And we would alternate back and forth. Then we would walk as a cool down. We did kick boxing classes at the gym, workout videos and like zumba! We also did weight lifting. Youtube is AMAZING for workouts! We found so many strength training workouts on there. A great page to check out is link they have a tonn of videos and their videos keep you entertained while working out. I love them! :) Good luck!

So you wanna lose more than one kilogram per week? You do know that's not healthy at all, don't you? But yes, if you lower your calorie intake drastically you might be able to get there. I just hope you're prepared for all the health problems that can cause.

[WeaponZero]

thank you. too many people don't pay attention tot his fact.

[stark101]

how come its not healthy to lose more than one kilogram per week?

[Asker]

It actually is a healthy amount to lose for my height and weight (doctors and dieticians have said so) as long as I didn't lose that amount every week for the next 2 months or so. I only have about 10kg to go till I'm at my goal weight. Was almost there but then I went to Europe and put 5kg back on:P

[violets2014]

A healthier way to lose weight is cutting about 500 calories from your diet (assuming you are at a 1500 calorie diet) and then burning 500 calories in some form of exercise. This should bring you down about 2 lbs a week which is a healthy amount. If you wanted to lose weight for your birthday you should have started a couple of months in advance.

[Asker]

I lost 12kg this year but then I went to Europe and put 5 back on, and I only just got back. So this is all the time I have left:S

use this as a guide. Make sure you click which kind of activity person you are as this will affect how many calories you should take in.

[Anonymous]

cut all of the bread you take in. instead of a sandwich for breakfast, take three pears or other fruits.

cut all of the snacks you take in. if you really must, buy almonds, and limit them too.

drink water.

make your salad be the core of your meal.

spend at least an hour a day walking, jogging, biking or swimming.

[aloofalpha]

Minimum of 1200 cals a day. Exercise + Lots of water. Simple. Try to keep meals 40% Protein, 40% Carbs, 20% fats.

You can regulate this by making portions of Carbs and Protein both fist sized.

You should probably not listen to anyone that gives you a caloric goal without knowing your weight or body fat percent and activity level.

[aloofalpha]

If she wants to loose another 4kg, I'm guessing she has at least 10-12% body fat. didn't know about 4 times a week gym, your correc there. However, 1200 cals is the pure minimum anyone should eat otherwise your body goes into starvation mode. look it up.

[CorneliaisPretty]

lets assume you already know about cutting carbs and junk food out of your diet. either only eat small portions of fruits and vegetables(steamed is best) or go on a healthy juice fast, which works great, if you do it right.

[aloofalpha]

Another thing, have 5 small meals a day instead of 3 big meals.

I honestly think you are already loosing weight as fast and as healthy as you can. Good job. Just keep it up.

[aloofalpha]

Determining a safe minimum amount of daily calories can be difficult as well for the same reasons listed above. However, extreme restriction of consumed calories can significantly slow the metabolic rate, and hinder your weight loss goals. The American College of Sports Medicine states that you shouldn't send signals to your body to conserve calories by detoxing or fasting. They recommend that women should eat at least 1,200 calories per day, and men should eat at least 1,800.

[brunettebelle]

Do HIIT training and some strength training together. Eat a crap load of veggies, fruits, proteins, also I recommend to buy unsweetened oatmeal and unsweetened almond milk (Silk's is the best!)

[Pixie-Flames]

Hit the gym,go running or do aerobics.I always found that exercise is the best way.It doesn't take that long to see results either

[aloofalpha]

P.s. 4kg in 3 weeks will never be healthy. They say 1-2 lbs a week.

[CatherineTheSoSo]

Spinning Class. As much spinning class as your body can manage.

[AbnGrl]

You can google the master cleanse and see if that's an option for u

[bee1994]

5 meals per day, with fruits and vegetables in between and working out :)

[drawacircle]

Cut out on the food with more sugar (sodas, sweets, fast food) and work out!

[nickijordan2009]

runing and drinking a lot of water
