Building muscle mass can lead to weight gain. Once you have reached a plateau level weight loss seems to be difficult. Take care of your diet. Eating too often or eating portions that are too large will also cause weight gain. Drink plenty of water and continue with your exercises. Avoid the intake of alcohol and smoking. Balanced eating is the only sustainable way to achieve long-term healthy weight loss. I hope you find this useful. Do write to us again with more queries.
My nicotine cravings are now under control, (I quit cold turkey so there is no nicotine substitute), so I have gone on a low fat, low calorie diet and I am participating in an exercise program of low impact aerobics. My problem is I am not losing weight. I have read that nicotine withdrawal slows your metabolism. Is this true and will I ever be able to lose this weight? Will my metabolism return to normal?
Thanks,

Hello. This may be a silly question, but i've noticed that during the past year i've gained some weight (about 10 lbs) without doing anything or actually seeing any physical changes. I don't think it's retained water because the weight doesn't fluctuate and i don't feel any different.
Hello,
After a radical nephrectomy it is best to avoid any alcohol consumption and smoking for a few days as it interferes with the body’s natural healing process. Eat more vegetable fats and sugars to avoid losing weight, and follow nutritional guidelines to make sure your body receives proper nutrition.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
- Smoking and drinking should really be stopped or avoided usually two weeks before the surgery. Though some surgeon may advice you a different period of time. Smoking and alcohol intake will only increase the risk of complications and may slow your recovery as well.
- As for other medical or health preparations, I suggest you directly ask your surgeon as he is the one who will be doing the surgery. He knows what's good for you.
I'm trying to join the air force but I'm 10lbs over the limit. To lose weight I started doing 2 hours of cardio one in the morning one at night. At first I started losing but after 2 week I'm gaining what cardio should I do to lose weight without muscles?
I'm not a health professional but have read a lot of reports from my own stress tests, and it sounds like you have a strong heart. An ejection fractions of 70% is something those of us with heart problems would embrace. However, you were given a big warning. Your family history suggests heart problems will visit you, especially because you smoke and are considered obese. I'ts not easy to quit, I know, but certainly it's possible. Losing weight is tough, also.
