What is your swear by weight loss method?

[Anonymous]

Some swear by ridiculous things like the only eat jellybeans diet (made that up) and others' will choose things like adding safflower oil to their diet or drinking lemon water. What do you swear by when it comes to weight loss, other than the obvious methods?

I think dieting is more effective than exercise. Honestly no matter what you do, if you can cut down your calories to around 1500kcal/day you will lose no matter what. It's just basic accounting - you can eat McDonald's and lose weight if you wanted to.

Hmm I find Pret A Manger foods really easy to manage - they low in calories and low in GI. Keeps you going for quite a while before hunger strikes.

well, there is a difference between weight loss and staying in shape... no one is in shape if they eat a ton of fast food XD I do see what you are saying though

What is your swear by weight loss method?

1500 calorie diet with 60 minutes of High Intensity Interval Training cardio and 30 minutes of strength training daily

[latebloomer87]

Wow if you can sustain that for even 2 weeks - That would be like, at least 2 pounds per week, maybe more. I'd say you'd shave off 700kcal from cardio, and 2-300kcal from the resistance training. That's -1000 kcal from just exercising.

Eat healthy, regular exercise, lose it slow and keep it off.

Nothing the involves something extreme like those... Just eating the proper foods and doing proper exercise. I've had a few friends use link and link with a lof of success.

eat breakfast, never skip breakfast- you may skip dinner, but never breakfast.

And don't eat everything on the plate- excuse me, impoverished African people.

Lift and bike. Also three hours in the sun playing baseball doesn't hurt either.
