Daily Weight Loss Charts

Weight loss help?

I’m 5’4″ and 155 lbs. I’m about thirty pounds overweight acording to the doctor charts, and I’m sick of it!

Please help! I want a safe dieting program that I can combine withat least thirty minutes of daily excerise that will help me lose the weight I want to lose in a reasonable amount of time that won’t hurt me.

I’m hoping to lose at least fifteen pounds by the end of March, if that helps.

Please help
I’m not diabetic o_O

15 pounds in one month is too fast to lose weight. I lost 10 pounds last month but had to majorly restrict my calorie intake in order to even lose that much.

Just try to restrict to 1200 calories a day and cut out fried foods, fast food, packaged food, etc. All the bad stuff.

Drink at least 100 oz. of water. That’s a lot of water, but your kidneys need lots of water in order to speed up your metabolism. Also, the reason people bloat is because they don’t drink enough water. Sounds weird, but it’s true. The more water you drink, the less you’ll bloat. Also, drinking lots of water cleans your body of toxins. When you urinate, it should be totally clear. If it’s yellow it means you haven’t drank enough water. I try to drink 130 oz. of water a day (1 gallon). It keeps you full so you won’t binge on unhealthy foods.

Try to eat more raw food like apples and salads. It’ll make you feel a lot cleaner, and fruit has a lot of fiber in it which keeps you full and also helps you…defecate.

It’s actually recommended that adults exercise AT LEAST one hour per day. So do cardio one day, a little weight lifting the next along with some walking. You’ll definitely notice a difference. And this isn’t even for someone trying to lose weight. That’s just for the average person. So try to get in as much exercising as possible (walking the dog, taking the stairs instead of the elevator).

I use www.fitday.com to calculate how many calories I’ve consumed and burned each day. It’s great and keeps you on track.

Try not to eat foods with a lot of sodium. They recommend 2400 mg of sodium a day, but that’s totally unnecessary. Your body actually only needs about 700 mg to function. Packaged foods have TONS of sodium in them. So does soda. So eliminate both of them from your diet. Sodium causes water retention which is when your body holds onto water and makes you bloat. Bloating is no good. Even Campbell’s Soup At Hand which has between 60 and 130 calories in each serving has 980 mg. You really need to read labels, even though it’s a hassle.

I honestly can’t believe I’ve written so much. But this is what I do. Being conscious of these things is really important and keeps you healthy.

Just do these things. Try to eat as raw and healthily as possible. Avoid red meat. Avoid fried foods, packaged foods, processed food, fast food, food high in saturated fat (that’s the fat that makes you fat), and food high in sodium. You will lose weight. I promise.

PS: I saw that girl said she’s 5’5 and 152. Well, that actually is overweight according to the BMI charts. Sure, one person can be 5’5 and 152 and completely muscle, but it’s still considered overweight. Everyone’s built differently, so things like BMI charts aren’t the best thing to go by, but it is a good way to make sure you’re at least healthy. Try to get a BMI around 20-21 and you’ll look wonderful. Do love yourself, but I really do think it’s important to try to lose weight and get in shape. I’m 32 pounds less than that and an inch taller, and even I have extra fat on my body. I need to work out. A lot. Sounds crazy, but it’s true. Someone 5’6 and 120 pounds who is entirely muscle looks a lot different to someone 5’6 and 120 pounds who has no muscle.
