I am fat and i want to slim down and loose 25 pounds for 2 montsh, is that possible? how??
Answers: I'm losing weight using www.sparkpeople.com. Its a very realistic goal if you want to lose 1-2 pounds per week AND ITS FREE! For me that was the most important.
Alternatively you can figure out your basal metabolic rate (what your body requires you to function each day ie: breathing, blood circulation, cell function etc) and reduce your calories with diet and burn calories through exercises.
An example:
If your basal metabolic rate (you can estimate it by multiplying your weight x 10) is weight 160pounds x 10 = 1600 calories per day required to keep you alive and functioning. now this amount is if you do absolutely nothing all day.
If you were moderatly active you'd need 13440 calories a week or 1920 calories a day.
with 7000 calorie reduction = two pounds of of fat loss
So reduce the calories by 1000 a day you come up with:
500 calories a day you can reduce foodwise = meaning eat 1420 calories a day
and 500 calories a day through exercise = cardio vascular (biking, hiking,walking etc). you can find out how much a particular activity burns here: www.caloriesperhour.com (you can also get your basal metabolic rate)
Advice: add strength training at least 2 days a week. NO matter how healthy your diet is you will still lose muscle, water and fat with weightloss. Muscle burns fat. The less muscle you have, the less fat your body burns!
Measure weightloss in inches as well as actual weight, since 1lb of fat and 1lb of muscle will look VERY different even if they weigh the same (muscle is more compact and fat is fluffier).
I wish you the best of luck and hope this was helpful.
all u need is will power.... try any trick but remain on it
Losing more than five pounds a month is dangerous. The best way to lose weight is to diet and exercise. Exercise boosts your metabolism, so that even just adding a little more physical activity and cutting down on food consumption will help you lose weight.
Losing 25 pounds in 2 months is only setting yourself up for health problems, including the development of gallstones.
thats not true. You can safely lose up to 3 pounds a week, so 24 pounds over 2 months isnt outrageous. Lots of exercise, and a very strictly healthy diet will be required though. And for exercise, I recommend running, which burns a ton of calories. But you have to do it at a decent pace, I see too many people at the gym that forget the work part of work out
