I'm 52 and any female . I want to lose weight and I've been trying but it is so so hard so it's true after you turn 50 it's hard to lose weight anybody have any suggestions !
About 8 years ago I lost 4 stone in 3 months but I have put on the weight again plus more and not been successful in losing weight for more than a month. Recenty I have purchased a set of scales that tells you the level of fat, water, mucile and bone density. The device can only read up to 50% body fat. It cannot tell me my readings as I'm over 50% fat :-( I've checked the device and it is working correctly. So I am now panicing about the effects of my poor living.
I would like to drop my weight down to 50 or 55. Is that an unhealthy weight? And this weight tracker thing says I have to eat around 1200 calories in every day, isn't that a little bit too little? Or is that right? And a side note, I have an injury that doesn't allow me to do any high impact sport, including running, any helpful tips?
I'm about 13 weeks and keep losing weight. Not sure why. I eat, but i know I'm not getting the calories I need. I eat a lot of fruits and vegetables mostly because that's what's sounds good. I'm also eating a lot of protein too. Anyone else experienced weight loss?
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.
First, if you're at all muscular, you're not all that overweight. If you're not muscular, you don't need to lose a ton of weight. Calories aren't key to losing weight -- how quickly and efficiently you metabolize your food into sugar and how well you digest your nutrients is far more important.
I can tell you from experience that if you plan on losing more weight...wait to have your tummy tuck. I lost 50 lbs and now I need to have the surgery all over again. I have also lost alot of weight (185 lbs) to begin with which may have a bearing on my results as well cause my skin is really bad...best thing is to talk to your Dr and let him know your concerns. Good luck.
MY DAUGHTER IS 9 YEARS OLD SHE HAD THE FLU REALLY BAD NOW THAT IT IS OVER SHE WILL NOT EAT SHE SAID THERE IS A BUBBLE IN HER THROAT AND CANT EAT IM NOT WORRIED ABOUT HER WEIGHT SHE IS OVER WEIGHT SHE WAS 130 AND LOST 15 POUNDS SO FAR IM JUST WORRIED ABOUT HER NOT EATING PLEASE HELP SHE HAD ALL KINDS OF BLOOD WORK,STREP TEST,STOMACH X-RAY,ALL CAME BACK NEGATIVE THANKS
Diet control and exercise are two essential keys for losing weight in a healthy way. Losing 15 kgs in one month is being over ambitious. It is not correct and healthy to lose so much of weight at one time. I would advise you to start with what is feasible for you. Eat foods which are high in fiber so that it gives you a feeling of fullness. Eat more fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C as vitamin C is a fat burner. Avoid sugary foods and foods high in fat and claories.
We need for you to post your thyroid test results and their reference ranges shown on the lab report.
chart can possibly tell me i am under weight or over weight. My sister had a 3 month looking belly at 9 months and baby weighed 7 lbs. If u listen to everything these american doc say then u will go nuts. ( just my opinion btw) they told me i was over weight according to my height etc..mind u, i had a flat stomach, nice "***" big breast etc ( i am from d island) but according to their bmi chart i was over weight.
I I am 20 weeks today and I have lost 23 lbs so far. I am actually at the dr now so we will see if I have gained any back maintained or lost weight again. Dr isn't worried all the ultrasounds have shown baby is big.
