Losing 10 pounds by Sept 23 is not a reasonable goal, as that's too much weight to lose in such a short time.
Most likely the reason you can't stick with a "diet" is because you're cutting your calorie intake too severely. Nobody can stick to a diet in which they don't provide enough food. If you provide adequate calories of healthy foods, chances are you won't have any trouble losing the weight and keeping it off.
I'm due April 24th and I've lost 20lbs since I found out at 6 weeks and am continuing to lose weight. My OB said that as long as I'm losing the weight in a healthy manner then all is good.
It is possible, but very hard to lose it in a healthy manner. I'd say work out 6 times a week and have one day to relax and eat healthy. Good luck!
Hi and Welcome to MedHelp!
Based on being male, 6'1" tall, 261 lbs, 28 years old and selecting a somewhat active lifestyle (moderate exercise 2-3 times a week), it takes 2,700 calories a day to MAINTAIN your weight.
For each pound you wish to lose, and it is suggested 1-2 pounds per week, you will need to create a calorie deficit of 3,500 calories. You can also accomplish this by exercising and burning the additional calories.
I would advise you to first consult your doctor and live a healthier life. Secondly, losing weight in a fast manner will do more damage than good to your body. Yes, you may lose “weight”, but you will also lose your beauty, natural elasticity, hunger, and digestion, etc.
However, there is no harm in consuming regular herbal tea, as it will help you live a healthier life. I recommend you try Unived’s herbal tea, which is easily available online.
All the best!
s easier on our bodies if we maintain a weight than yo-yo back and forth, and this is one area where we see the effects as girls. If you feel you would be healthier at a lesser weight, lose the weight in a healthy manner (healthy diet including portion control and exercise) and then maintain the weight.
I don't know that anything would help make your breasts perky unless you went the extreme of surgery.
Cutting down on calories to less than adequate is not considered healthy. Also when aiming at losing weight the protein intake may be slightly increased and the carbohydrate intake slightly lowered. The calorie requirement should also be adjusted for ones physical activities as well. Lower than adequate calorie intake can also cause weight gain, due to the stress hormones kicking in also causing erratic sugar levels in diabetics.
s keeping you from losing weight. By eating regular meals, you can better incorporate a mix of vegetables, protein, whole grains and healthy fats into your diet. Snacking, typically, ends up being fruit, candy bars, crackers, sandwiches, chips and all the things that aren't so good for you and tend to make you, either, gain or hold onto weight.
I'm not losing weight on hcg. Why? I am going straight by the 500 cal protocol, and I'm NOT cheating. 2 weeks - 4 pounds. I'm weighing and documenting everything I put in my mouth. I'm on 500 calories - NOT hungry and NOT losing weight.

My average healthy weight is 60kg and I'm 161cm tall, now I'm 75kg which is overweight. I just finished the 3rd month yesterday. Is there a way to lose weight without hurting the baby? Cuz it's not healthy for me to stay in this weight while I'll gain 12kg more while pregnancy. Nothing hard or hurtful, walking is hard here since I'm in saudi Arabia and the heat reach 40c. I'm looking for healthy diet that won't hurt the baby if I do it.
Its good you've set a goal and are looking to find out how to achieve it! However losing 15 pounds in a month is unrealistic and unhealthy. Did you know it takes about a year for your body to adjust to losing 10 pounds? It's important to remember weight loss is a marathon and not a sprint. In order to lose weight and keep it off, you shouldn't look at it as weight loss but a way to become healthier!
Im 126 pounds and im a kid and im trying to loose this b3cause my dodctor said im overweight so im trying to be 80 pounds
Baby is pulling in all the nutrients it needs and that is partly why you feel so miserable and lose weight sometimes. My daughter was born 7 pounds and healthy. I ended up gaining what I lost plus 20 by the end of my pregnancy. You and baby should be just fine! Hope you feel better though, morning sickness is so miserable.
I eat a lot now, do yoga once or twice a week but that is all. I am concerned because i dont know the cause of my weight loss. I eat healthy, feel healthy although occasional feel tired and fatigued and sometimes feel depressed. i dont know if all this is normal or if i shud worry. My body metabolism seems to dissolve all the food without gaining an inch? is that normal?
