I Want to Lose Weight but Most of All Flatten My Stomach. Any Diet or Exercise Tips That Will Help Me Out?

Filed under: diet tips — Tags: , , , , — Ruby @ 7:03 am

Well here’s a question I just had to answering straight away:

Question: i want to lose some weight, not loads but a few pounds.
mostly i want to flatten my stomach, and lose some weight off my hips.
and i want to find out what type of exercises and foods are best to get rid of my belly and hips.
Answer: jogging is an excellent exercise because it let you lose weight
evenly throughout your whole body. If you want to lose weight in
specific areas, you should target them with exercises. If they are
your problem areas, they will be very difficult to tone. You will have
to work double on them. The best approach is this:
1. Lower/control your daily calorie intake (control for normal
weight, lower for overweight).
2. Run/jog to lower your overall body fat percentage.
3. Target your problem areas with exercises.
an excellent exercise, you can do it in front of your TV: sit on a
stool, and put your toes under something (piece of heavy furniture,
for example). In your hands hold a little dumbbell. Please, make sure
that it is not very heavy, start with one kilo, for example, or you
will damage your back and spine! Slowly move the upper part of your
body back, until it’s parallel with the ground. Stop for a second and
move it back to the sitting position. Repeat ten times. Every week add
to the number of repetitions. You will see the results in a week,
guaranteed! You will see or feel under the fat - if you have any - six
pack and muscles. Dumbbells do wonders. Much better than these
crunches - I came up to three hundreds and there was no results AT
ALL. With the dumbbells you will see it in a week.

Am I Overweight. If So, Diet and Exercise Tips Please?

Well here’s a question I just had to answering straight away:

Question: im 14 years old, in 8th grade, and i seem a bit bigger than me peers. im 5 feet tall and 147 pounds. my stomach is bigger than id like it to be, and i have excess fat on my arms and legs as well. i used to be obese when i was 11 because i went through puberty early, but i lost all that weight the next year and was then 92 pounds which was a healthy weight. i started gaining weight rapidly this year though. at the start of 8th grade i was 105 pounds which was healthy, but in danger of being overweight i think, so im guessing i am a little too fat right now. i really feel bigger than i should be, and i get out of breath more easily than my friends in p.e., and walking around the school is harder for me than skinnier girls. id like to once again be slim. no supplements though please! i want to lose weight the right way :)

**NOTE: look, i dont want to lose weight if i am healthy. so first of all… am i overweight? second (if i am) DIET & EXERCISE tips please! none of this supplement nonsense my mom said "no way" to them. sorry if this sounds rude i dont mean to be

Answer: Well, if you feel that you’re overweight, here are some tips. For breakfast, have a smoothie. For lunch, have like a salad or something. And for dinner, something like grilled chicken or fish would do. Also, for exercise. You may want to join a sports team, like swimming. In swimming, you burn a lot of calories. And, you could join dance, where you can burn 300 calories an hour.

What Are Some Dieting and Exercising Tips for Losing Weight? 14 Y/o?

I just love answering these diet tips questions. Here’s another:

Question: Alrighty, so I started working out a while ago, and it lost me like 5 pounds. I used the "8 minute…" workout vidoes on youtube for arms, legs, and abs. Then I got sick for 2 weeks, so I lost even more weight, but I couldn’t exercise.
Now that I’m healthy again, I can’t get back to that same exercise pace as before. I gained ALL the weight back, including the 5 pounds I lost from before I got sick… I feel absolutely terrible and I wanna cry):
I need help.
What I really wanna target is my lower stomach and outer thighs. So yeah…
If it helps..
height. 5 feet, I inch
weight before: 115lb
after exercise:110lb
after getting sick: 106
Answer: Diet- cut out bad carbs and starches eat more protein. walk 3 times a week and do 20-40 sit ups per day. eat small meals but eat often, this will keep your metabolism active.

Weight Loss Tips? Motivation? Diet and Exercise Tips?

A tough diet tips question this week. Let’s dive straight in

Question: Well,
I’m 5′7″ and 160lbs
I know I’m overweight..I just lost 20lbs since last January, so almost a year ago! I’ve really been slacking off and I’m afraid I’m going to gain it back.
My legs are really skinny/muscular for my weight so I have a huge muffin top.
Here’s a picture, I cropped off my head, haha.

It’s horrible.
Umm, oh and I have really small boobs, like they’re barely big enough for an A cup bra, so does that have anything to do with it?

Help Pleaseeee!
