Don Said:

When watching what you eat lose weight, are calories or carbs more important to cut down on?

We Answered:

ALWAYS calories. Low-carb diets can work, but only because you're actually eating fewer calories!

3500 calories= 1 lb of body fat. Create a calorie deficit through the week this big, and you will lose a pound!

Tracy Said:

What is the best amount of calorie/fat to eat to lose weight combined with 1 hr gym 3 x per week?

We Answered:

Hi Laura

Do not go with the no carbs diet. You will only be tired, especially if you going to the gym 3 times a week.

You can lose the fat you want to get rid of by just eating differently and correctly. This is a theory called the shifting calories theory. I lost 20 pounds with it in just a month.

Try the diet out. All you have to do is to be disciplined and follow the diet for a month, you will be stunned with the fat you lose in just a month (but follow the diet well). Try it out...I have given you the link below.

Heidi Said:

Would halfing what you eat lose weight?

We Answered:

Yes. Muriel Spark, the author who died recently, was a chubby young woman. But in her twenties, she slimmed down, and journalists were always asking her how she did that.

"I just ate half of everything I used to eat" she always replied "At parties I had one glass of wine, not two, I ate half a sandwich where I used to eat the whole thing, half a piece of cake, etc. I just got used to eating 50% of what I had eaten before and I've never been fat since"

Shirley Said:

why do I need to eat healthy to lose weight?

We Answered:

the problem with fried food is that it is bad for your overall health. it offers no good nutrients, way too many calories, bad carbs, too much salt, and it will ultimately slow you down. your body will naturally boost its metabolism by eating properly and sticking to a balanced diet of vegetables, grains, dairy, and protein. ultimately, eating healthy offers less fat than fried food.
check the food guide for more details.
Good luck and stay healthy!!

Lorraine Said:

What should I eat to lose weight or to stay slim?

We Answered:

The types of food you eat will not decrease your body fat percentage. You do that by burning more calories than you consume and by building muscle. Eat all fruits and vegetables in the amounts recommended by the food pyramid. Eat lean meats and fish.

Weight loss is an overall process and there are no magic answers. Pay no attention to weight loss supplements and pills and all the latest fads. You need to think about many factors but most of them are related to issues we've known about for a very long time. There are many sensible things you can do that will make a tremendous difference over the long term if you need to lose weight. It can be done in a healthy way. This is what has worked for me.

Keeping a food journal really does help. It will give you a much better sense of how much you are eating, and when, and why.

Make a few additional small changes - walk everywhere, always use stairs instead of elevators, walk on escalators, get up and move around at least once an hour if your work or your life in general is sedentary, walk every day, use a pedometer. Walking 10,000 steps a day is a really good idea. Build up to a long brisk walk everyday, or most days. Be more active and watch less TV and spend less time on the computer. Buy one piece of exercise equipment to have at home and be strict with yourself about using it. Sometimes you can find mini-steppers or exercise bikes at second hand stores and thrift stores for just a few dollars.

Start a weight lifting routine. Join a gym. Possibly you can find one that has someone who specializes in weight lifting programs for beginners. Weight lifting will increase your metabolism as well as improve posture and appearance overall. Even if you can't get to the gym you can work out at home using things around the house. Invest in a good weight training book. The Dummies series actually has a good one.

In terms of diet, cut out or reduce things like junk food, pop, fat, fast food. Eat more fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean meat, fish. Particularly if you choose a vegetarian lifestyle include natural peanut butter, hummus, dried fruit and nuts. Pay close attention to getting the nutrients your body needs to be healthy.

Make your portion sizes smaller. Use a smaller plate - in our society we have become accustomed to thinking that we need a large plate of food at every meal, and we don't. About quarter of your plate of food should be protein and at least half of it should be veggies.

Learn to count calories. At your current weight and activity level, you may possibly need about 2000 calories or more to maintain your current weight. So you will lose weight at a reasonable and healthy rate if you cut back to about 1600 or 1700 calories a day.

Eat small amounts frequently, rather than three large meals. Never skip breakfast. Include some protein in your breakfast. It will help get you through the day.

Drink plenty of water, at least 8 big glasses of water a day, and more if it is very hot, if you sweat a lot, or if you are exercising intensely, and eliminate fruit juices. Fruit juices have too many calories, so get your vitamins from fresh fruit, not the juice. You will begin to see changes in your body.

Vary your routines. Don't eat the same number of calories every day (vary your calories from 1400 a day to 1900 or 2000 some days), eat a variety of foods, and do different kinds and amounts of exercise. You will lose weight much more efficiently if you mix things up from time to time so that your body doesn't adjust to any one routine.

An area that many people overlook is getting enough sleep. You are much more likely to overeat or to binge eat if you are tired and not well rested, so get enough sleep.

Check out websites about nutrition, exercise, weight training, etc. Here are a few helpful links.
