First - tell me all exactly what you've tried in the past to lose weight?

Adrian Bryant | 08.28.09 - 5:15 pm

I am a 30 yr old mother of four , my youngest will be 1 in October . I have gone from 150 before having kids to 218 now after my fourth and all over the spectrum in between the 12 yrs in between. I am having a heck of a time getting this weight off . Plus I dont sleep well at night and sometimes wake up hungry in the middle of the night and eat ( more often than I would really like to admit ) I have tried many times not to do this and can sometimes succeed , but I am having a hard time losing weight even with a different kind of diet and increased exercise . Any advice for me ? Can you help I need to lose this weight !!

I would avoid all those - i think the people who make those put too many processed and unatrual ingredients in them to make you want to eat more than you have to

Adrian Bryant | 08.20.09 - 11:59 pm

I was woundering is honey nut cherios, regular cherios, and corn flakes, cereals that I should avoid eating and if so why?

Denise | 08.20.09 - 4:49 pm

I can't really answer that - I never heard of "What about tazo wild sweet orange" but...

Try green tea diet pills if you can't drink green tea

Adrian Bryant | 08.17.09 - 9:56 pm

You said drink green tea. I have drank it so much it makes me nauseous. What about tazo wild sweet orange? i use grade a maple syrup, raw sugar and honey as sweetners. Are theses ok?

GEt rid of the coffe & soda and get used to "weight loss" water!

Adrian Bryant | 08.16.09 - 8:03 am

Hello Adrian:

I want to loose weight.
I drink decaffeinated coffee and club soda, I´m not used to drink tea and regular water makes me go to the bathroom like crazy, also I don´t like it.

Should I stop drinking any of them?
Is decaffeinated coffee as bad as regular? is soda water bad to loose weight?

Thanks for your advice

Jorge | 08.16.09 - 4:57 am

Yes you can get it at local supermarket

Adrian Bryant | 08.01.09 - 11:31 am

You stated that green tea is a natural fat burner. Can I just buy it at the local supermarket or do I have to order the one on the link above?

lady601 | 07.31.09 - 10:40 am

Just curious

you should really avodi sherbet and ice cream if trying to lose weight

Adrian Bryant | 07.30.09 - 8:28 am

Is sherbert any better than eating ice cream?

Just curious | 07.29.09 - 11:01 pm

Samantha

If the juice is natural without any extra added sugar or ingredients then its okay

Adrian Bryant | 07.28.09 - 8:49 pm

In the list of foods you should avoid it says fruit juice. Does this refer to fruit juice you dilute from concentrate only or does it also include Fresh fruit juice/smoothies?

fruit cups are okay but of course the fresh or unprocessed fruit is better

Adrian Bryant | 07.24.09 - 1:11 am

So, if i eat fruit cups with no sugar added is that ok? I've been getting the cups of applesauce and peaches with no sugar added. Or, should I just avoid the fruit cups altogether and just stick to fresh fruits like apples and oranges?

Terri | 07.23.09 - 4:06 pm

All green teas are the smae and help you burn fat/lose weight

Adrian Bryant | 07.16.09 - 7:01 pm

Are all green tea's the same, I drink regular green tea, but you link to "weight loss" green tea, is this differant or simply marketed differently?

I. Buchanan | 07.15.09 - 2:59 pm

You can't target any fat but if you go to NowLoss.com/15...

You'll lose more belly & overall fat and

go to nowLoss.com/abs to tone abs and as you're losing weight...

Go here to maintain the look of firmer/bigger breast and..

after you lose weight - go here for tone butt

Adrian Bryant | 06.26.09 - 8:36 pm

Hi, I am 21 yr old female and I weigh about 130 and I am 5'2 in height. I was around 125 in high shcool then I gained up to 165 after two pregnancies and lost it. My overall appearance seems fine, but my stomach, there is where most of my fat is located. I heard that if you lose weight it will come off all over and firstly your breast and that is what happened to me after I had my two kids. So basically I don't want to lose anymore breast, but target the fat on my stomach and build muscle there and tone my buttocks area and breast and everything else is fine. Help Please!!!!

what did you do to lose 15 pounds and what are you doing no in an attempt to lose weight?

Adrian Bryant | 06.26.09 - 8:34 p

Hi, I was on a diet and I lost almost 15 pounds...then Christmas came and I started gaining but the more I tried to lose the more I gained. Now I'm almost back to the weight I started in.
I really need help to get back on track, it went well before Christmas.

popcorn without any extra oils, butter or excessive salt is fine

Adrian Bryant | 06.19.09 - 8:21 pm

Hi Adrian,

I have been on a very healthy diet (proteins, vegetabels, complex carbs and lots of water) but recently I felt bloated and sort of constipated. Then I noticed that on days that I ate 2-3 cups of air popped popcorn (45 calories)later in the evening made a huge difference next day. Would my diet get ruined if I add air popped popcorn as a source of fiber? I saw somewhere here on your site to avoid popcorn if you want to lose weight, I don't use oil thought.
Thanks!

popcorn is fine as long as it is natural with no extra butter or too much salt added

Adrian Bryant | 06.12.09 - 12:11 pm

Hey,
I'm a little confused about the popcorn. On this list it says not to eat it but on the list of foods to eat, it says plain popcorn is ok... so I just wanted to clarify if popcorn is okay as long as you don't butter it??

You're on the right track - I would just eat a range of 1400-to-1900 calories daily

Adrian Bryant | 06.11.09 - 7:07 pm

Hi Adrian,
I am 29 yrs,male,5 feet 6inch, 190 pounds. My calorie intake for a day is around 1400 spread across 4-5 meals. To loose weight with target at 165 pounds, I started doing exercise 2 weeks back and am burning around 600 calories a day 4 days a week through cardio. Is this fine? When I check in Calorie calculators it says to reduce weight I can still eat upto 1900 calories a day..Does taking less calories a day resist weight loss??

No need to be depressed.

Did you lower your calories as you lost weight for the NowLoss.com/50 plan?

Do the EZ diet & workout at NowLoss.com/8 to lose flab

GO to NowLoss.com/abs for abs

Go here for chest

Adrian Bryant | 06.03.09 - 5:41 pm

Hi, little help? Thanks
I'm male, 51 weigh 152 - 5' 8" I have the beginnings of the side love handles, small manboobs and a small gut of flab around the belly button area. Don't drink or smoke at all. My 'flab' is all probably due to age. I want to lose this flab from these areas and also develop nice pecs and abs. What excersizes do you recc. and what foods are good and bad for me? Thanks very much for caring about people. Steve

Steve Minkman | 06.03.09 - 3:36 pm

Shay

Yes - just don't make your carbs no greater than 40-to-50% of your diet and...

Weight loss is more about the quality of the foods you eat (See NowLoss.com/199), the amount of calories, and the amount of activity

Adrian Bryant | 06.04.09 - 2:32 pm

I see. So this must be some kind of low carb, higher protein diet and my body just isn't used to that. Can I increase my carb count and still lose weight though?

Shay

Shay | 06.04.09 - 7:33 am

Shay

Your calories are fine and you are sluggish simply because you are not eating enough carbs which should be 40-to-50% of your diet

Adrian Bryant | 06.03.09 - 7:15 pm

I am 5'3, and because he has me on five small meals daily, I really don't think I am getting enough calories. I still feel sluggish and tired sometimes. I would say I get in between 1200-1400 calories per day. I absolutely love the elliptical, but I think my body is getting used to it. I also do the low bike and treadmill. I'm asthmatic so I can only do so much at a time, but I've been pushing to do a bit more each time...

Shay | 06.03.09 - 6:23 pm

Shay

How tall are you and how many total calories are you eating per day?

Have you looked here at ways to speed up your weight loss

Adrian Bryant | 06.03.09 - 5:39 pm

Hi Adrian:

I am 35 and have lost 9 pds on a carb cycling diet my trainer has me on. I begin with egg whites/oatmeal daily, along with two snacks of yogurt on days 1-2, and protein for meals/snacks for the next 3-6. An occasional green salad or veggie rounds out the diet. The problem is I seem to be stuck at 182. I mean getting beyond the 191 has me excited, but it's been two months and I know I should be able to lose more weight. I do cardio and weight training 5-6 days per week. Any suggestions?

#1 - you are not overweight and the body fat calculator here at NowLoss.com is not the most accurate and...

Hi Adrian. First of all i want to tell you how much i appreciate your work and this website. Okay, I am 5'2" and weigh 117 pounds. and according to your body fat calculator i have 28% body fat.

I was wondering what all workouts will be the most effective towards my goal, in what order should i do them, and how often in the week should i perform them. i am so sorry this is long but i really would appreciate your help. thanks again.

Yoki,

8-to-10 pounds a month is a good goal to shoot for but once you get 10 pounds away from your goal it will take longer so when you get 10 pounds away from your goal... It may take a month and a half to lose last 10 pounds

robert,

TRUE - it will cease cravings but like I said in a previous comment...

"Even sugar free gum has ingredients that cause bloating making you put on "false fat""

Maybe at first but as you get closer to your weight loss goal - you'll need to limit processed foods (even healthy processed foods) to really hit your weight loss goal

Adrian Bryant | 04.12.09 - 9:32 am

i heard chewing extra no sugar gum will stop cravings. is it okay to chew this gum *rday323@aol.com

i was wondering if eating HEALTHY CHOICE MEAL be okay to eat while dieting

Probably.

Not bad at all since it is okay to cheat once in a while

Are Bortolli frozen pasta meals bad? If I only eat 300 calories will that be okay? I wouldnt want to eat it every day but when I have my family for dinner I have to make something Italian..lol..or should I say re-heat. So is this okay to do once a week? Will I still drop the 20 pounds?

Thank you!

I'm am 5'0 foot tall 20 years of age. I had a baby 4 months ago and was a good weight after the birth but sitting at home with my son I'd eat everytime I'd wake up which is alot because I'd sleep when he slept so I quickly gained 20 pounds I was 169 after which is good for me because I'm african american and had the perfect shap now I am 189 what is the best way for me to drop these pounds quickly and keep them off thank you your help is appreciated.

Abhi,

NOT ALL Ham is bad.

You just got a good choice of ham that's okay to eat

Adrian Bryant | 03.08.09 - 11:03 am

Hi Adrian!
I read in the foods you must avoid while trying to lose weight article and noticed ham is also listed as bad food.
I have been eating a lot of ham(leg ham, extra lean ham etc), but when I look at the labels on the package at grocery shop, it shows very high protein, low calories and pretty low fat.
So I thought it is a very healthy option, also it's great value for money, really easy to cook and tastes yummy...so i've been eating heaps of it.

I will happily stop eating it if I found out how it is bad for you.
Could you pls explain this to me?

I weigh 176 pounds, I have started doing HIIT - whole body resitance training, some cardio and eating good food and less calories 2-3 months ago.
I have had some success-especially my arms,chest and legs looking bit more musular but it hasn't shown any noticable difference on my tummy fat.

-Thanks so much!
-Abhi.

Abhi | 03.07.09 - 9:02 pm

Tara,

If you're to keep your calories down to where you'll be eating enough to lose weight then...

It may be possible but ramen noodles tend to train your body to store fat rather than burn it.

WHat about any of the foods at NowLoss.com/199?

Adrian Bryant | 02.25.09 - 7:14 pm

I'm a college freshman and I was wondering is it still possible to lose 50 pounds in 5-8 months without a fridge and stove? I pretty much live off of ramen and microwavable stuff.

How much weight you lose mainly depends on how overweight you are.

Do this emergency weight loss plan to help assure you'll lose 20 in 6 weeks

Adrian Bryant | 02.20.09 - 5:14 pm

hi - i am 26 and don't weight myself bc it makes me ill since i went up in 2 jean sizes (4 is tight where I used to be able wear 2 no problem) my question is that i am getting married and want to lose 20 lbs in 6 weeks. I think that i can do it bc usually I run a few miles a day at high intesity etcc (past few months i have been slacking off on exercise and i adore white wine and have alot of it). Do you think that i can still lose 20lbs in 6 wks if I don't eliminate white wine? I plan to keep my calories @ 1200 and run 4 miles a day/5 times a week and do 3 toning classes a week. I would probably have 2 glasses a day and a little more on a sat night...

Carol,

If you haven't already - here's the foods you need to eat but...

At first the weight watchers shouldn't be a problem as long as you stay in your calorie range but as you get closer to your weight loss goal or if you're having trouble losing weight...

You want to avoid frozen foods because of the salt content and...

Sushi is fine and I can't recommend any rolls sine I myself don't eat much sushi

Adrian Bryant | 02.01.09 - 4:24 pm

#116

I love your site! I'm very excited about starting my weight loss plans. I have a few questions before I start. I am a college student and (because of time) rely on frozen foods. Mostly weight watchers. Is this a problem? Is there a certain type I should get or a certain type I should avoid? I also love sushi. Which rolls should I get//stay away from?

Thanks so much for your time!

Carol | 02.01.09 - 3:47 pm

DOES IT MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE HOW YOU DRINK THE GREEN TEA TO HAVE THE SAME FAT BURNING EFFECT? DOES IT HAVE TO BE HOT? I LIKE TO PUT IT IN HOT WATER TO STEEP AND THEN ADD IT TO A BIG GLASS OF ICE WATER.

ADRIAN I ALSO HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION. I HAVE LOST A TOTAL OF 60 LBS IN THE LAST YEAR AND A HALF, AND I FEEL STUCK AGAIN. THE WAY I LOST WEIGHT WAS BY EXERCISING, DRINKING LOTS OF WATER, AND EATING VERY DIFFERENT. BUT NOW MY PROBLEM IS THAT I DONT KNOW HOW TO COUNT MY CALORIES BECAUSE THE FOODS I EAT ARE VERY DIFFERENT FROM DAY TO DAY. I COOK FOR MY FAMILY AND EAT WHAT THEY EAT JUST LESS. AND IM ALSO CONSURNED THAT I DROPPED TOO MANY CALORIES AT ONCE AND NOW MY BODY IS IN FAT STORING MODE. PLEASE HELP ME CONTINUE LOOSING FAT NOT STORING, WHAT SHOULD I DO?

Logan,

I only mean this if you try to lose weight quick by starving yourself - Look at "I’ll just starve myself to lose weight!" to see why

Adrian Bryant | 01.04.09 - 3:37 pm

#94

Why do you say the quicker i lose it, the more likely i am to gain it back?

Logan | 01.03.09 - 10:32 pm

#93

Logan,

You'd be better off doing this weight loss plan here and there's no need to rush to lose weight because - believe me...

The quicker you lose = the quicker you'll gain it all back so let me make it simple for you...

Would you rather take 5-to-10 months to get down to 80 pounds or would you rather lose 80 pounds in 3 months and then gain it all back plus more and end up weighing 300 pounds?

Adrian Bryant | 01.03.09 - 6:10 pm

#92

I am just starting to try losing weight. I am 17 years old, 6'2", and 280 lbs.

Since I didn't see it on the list, I was wondering what your thoughts were on eating like for breakfast, a nutri-grain bar, and then for lunch just like a tomato & lettuce sandwich.

also, what do yu recommend I do to lose this excess weight ASAP? I am trying to get back down to 200 lbs, and i would prefer to do it as quick as I can.

Logan | 01.03.09 - 1:08 am

adriana,

Rice isn't as bad as regular junk foods and it is okay to have brown or natural rice - it's the white rice you should minimize and here's a basic weight loss plan to follow

Im 17 5'7 and 149 lbs. Im not too big on the numbers, its how I look. I want the sexy figure 8, the non-jiggly thighs, the tight butt.... all for my PROM this year!! the hard thing is getting started and sticking to it. So I guess my question is where do I start?

Kellie | 12.26.08 - 5:24 pm

#87

Alex,

Yes you can but I don't think you really need to be concerned about weight loss if you're 5-8 weighing 130 pounds

Adrian Bryant | 12.22.08 - 11:32 am

#86

Hello Adrian, I was wondering if i could do this at the age of 14. I have no problem with eating healthy foods i particularly hate foods like cake,ice cream,doughnuts,cookies etc. i am at 130 pounds at the moment and my height is 5'8.

Alex | 12.21.08 - 4:26 am

#85

Julia,

You're doing just fine at your height & weight to be losing 1 pound a week because at your height & weight...

You're only about 8 pounds overweight and the less overweight you are = the longer it's going to take to lose those last few pounds so actually...

1 pound a week is GOOD for you! but...

You don't want to really cut calories and in my opinion...

It's best to increase exercise intensity to burn off those last few pounds and for your diet...

the only change I can suggest is that you try to make 40-to-50% of your total calories protein to speed things up a little but overall...

you're doing just fine.

contact me if you need more help!

Adrian Bryant | 12.17.08 - 7:13 pm

#84

Hi Adrian,

You've given me some advice before. I'm 5'3, 26 yrs old and have been dieting for 7 weeks and have lost 9 lbs. I started at 145 and I'm now 136.

I'm frustrated at how long it's taking. The first couple of weeks I was losing 1.5 lbs a week but now it's slowed to about 1 per week.

I'm eating about 1300 calories per day and work out 6 days a week (6 days of cardio for an hour for 500 calories burned and then 3 days I also add weight lifting). I'm wondering if I'm not eating enough? I read Tom Venuto's Burn the Fat Feed the Muscle and I've been eating small "meals" through the day (although sometimes the meals are as little as a piece of fruit and some nuts for about 200 calories) and he's warns that eating too little will slow weight loss. Should I be adding to my calories? Is it ok that some of my "meals" are actually just kind of snacks (it's not like I'm sitting down to some salmon and broccoli at like 3pm, I have some fruit, nuts, etc.)

Thanks as always for your help.

Julia | 12.17.08 - 4:35 pm

#83

SexyWithFlab,

#1 - go here and pick a weight loss plann

#2 - you can eat 5 meals a day and...

#3 - oatmeal is great for weight loss!

Adrian Bryant | 12.16.08 - 7:23 pm

#82

I dont get it!! I dont eat cakes and sweets or icecream. I only sometimes have Chips with a Sandwich... how can you not!!

In I seem to store fat in my arms, I look like a football player. Lower back top butt and inner thigh.

I have been stressed out and I eat unlike some people so maybe that was it. Not like crazy fast food or junk just like extra steak or chicken.

I went from 145 to 165. If you cant eat 6 times a day what are you to do??

Im about to add oatmeal to my plate even though I hate the taste.

Lory,

I don't know how tall you are but you're probably at a normal weight and you shouldn't be worrying about drinking fruit juices too much and at least 3-to-5 cups of green tea is what you need to burn fat but in your case...

You should look into this advanced weight loss plan to lose weight

Brendan,

If you're trying to lose weight - you need to forget about drinking beer or sodas and focus on drinking mainly water.

Avoid alcohol because it lowers testosterone and causes you to have man boobs! - Look at #13 here and...

Hello,
I am a young and athletic guy. I am just about 6 feet and weigh 190 lbs. I don't look huge, but I have no definition. I am going to start your workout program and have been reading about it. Do you have any advice. I would like to lose about 15 lbs. or so and get more defined in the stomach and chest. Also, I read to stay away from alcohol, but I am a young guy that lives with a couple of buddies, so that part is hard. What is the best if I can't avoid it. Light beer, liquor mixed with diet soda, or something else?
Thanks for the advice.

Brendan | 12.02.08 - 10:47 am

#72

cam,

It's a good idea to avoid most juices when trying to lose weight but I would limit the amount of fruit juices you drink

Adrian Bryant | 11.24.08 - 8:53 pm

#71

what knids of fruit juice can I not drink? is it orange juice and grape juice?????

cam | 11.24.08 - 7:56 pm

Briana,

If you're currently on a weight loss plan right now then it's okay to have a few cheat days just on the holidays but...

Do you usually gain 15 pounds during the holidays?

If you want to pig out during the holidays - I suggest you pig out on weight loss foods and strongly cut back on these bad foods but as for as losing 15 pounds in 2 weeks...

It depends on how overweight you are if you can lose weight that fast but truthfully...

I suggest you enjoy your holiday and then get started on an EZ weight loss plan

Adrian Bryant | 11.22.08 - 5:22 pm

#69

is there a way that i can enjoy the holiday foods and still lose weight? i need a little hep with that.

How do i lose 15 pounds in 2 weeks?

Sue m.,

Yes - stress could be a big problem because stress makes you overeat and put on weight so YES...

Do what you can to lower your stress but you also need to look at other reasons why you can't lose weight before you blame it all on stress

Adrian Bryant | 11.20.08 - 1:04 pm

#67

I stress a lot and I eat healthy and don't eat junk food, soda or juice and go on walks three time a week and I seem to to go up and down on on my weight... Is it possible that my stressis the cause of my weight gain?

Sue m. | 11.19.08 - 1:35 pm

Ann,

You want to avoid white rice or anything that's processed - it's better to eat brown or natural rice.

Green tea is a good fat burner and it's okay to put a "little" honey in your tea

Adrian Bryant | 11.18.08 - 2:32 pm

#65

Is white rice going to make me gain wait?
can I eat white rice pasta?
Is green tea ok?
Is honey ok to put in my tea?

Becky,

Yes - enriched flour means the food is processed or a bad carb for weight loss and...

Canned Pickles have sugar in them

Adrian Bryant | 11.09.08 - 6:23 pm

#59

I was snacking on some brown in color Whole Wheat Crackers (the package called them "whole wheat") and then I saw this site. I checked the ingredient list and Enriched flour is the first ingredient, and whole wheat flour is number two. Does this count as something I should not eat. A bad food - white food in disguise?

Also, Pickles have zero calories, I often snack on these when dieting, but they are listed as a bad food on this site. Why are they bad?

Becky | 11.08.08 - 5:25 pm

#58

Dee,

YES - natural plain popcorn is ok and I haven't seen where gum can be bad for weight loss but chewing gum may increase your cravings

Adrian Bryant | 11.09.08 - 6:21 pm

#57

I thought i saw somewhere on this site that popcorn with no butter is ok but it was on the list of 37 foods not to eat...so can i or cant i eat it.

Also, is gum really that bad. I love chewing gum. I guess i could quit but i didnt know it was bad.

Chas,

I don't have any sample meal plans but what you should do is for your meals is...

Make sure you're eating the right amount of calories in each meal to lose weight and then...

Try to eat at least 1 fruit and/or veggie, another complex starchy carb like oatmeal & protein in each meal

Adrian Bryant | 10.19.08 - 10:49 am

I'm getting really frustrated!! up until about a year ago, I wouldn't exercise at all. About a year ago I joined a gym and started exercising about 3 times/week. I saw some results pretty fast. Then in January of 2008 I started meeting with a personal trainer. I started exercising 5 times/week, and eventually moved to where I am now, working out 7 times/week. When I started training I weighed 134lbs and had a body fat percentage of 26.6%. I recently had my last session, and I now weigh 142lbs!!! My body fat decreased to 23.3%, but I feel and look worse. I have been working out really hard every day, to the point where I am dripping with sweat. I am in college so I do drink about 1 night/week, but other than that my eating is pretty good. I always get wheat bread, low fat cheese, milk, etc etc. Occasionally I will eat things that aren't great for you, but VERY occasionally. I am disgusted whenever I look in the mirror and just want to see results comparable to the effort I've been putting in. I don't know what to do! help!

Marc,

Although splenda and all that other low calorie sweenters may seem like a good idea to use while losing weight - it really isn't because those sub. sweetners still make you crave for more bad foods that contain sugar so...

Hold off on the tea until you reach your weight loss goal or treat yourself and only drink a glass of tea every 10 days or better yet...

Only reward yourself with a glass of tea every time you lose 5 pounds

Adrian Bryant | 09.12.08 - 9:11 am

#39

Thanks Adrian!

What about unsweet tea sweetened with slenda, sweet n low or equal?

Marc | 09.11.08 - 10:18 pm

I am from the south so Sweet Iced Tea is basically all I drink. I assume the sugar is not good for me? I drink about 2-3 10 -15oz glasses a day. Some of it is caffinated, some isn't.

I am 5'10" / 215lb right now and was 263 about a year or so ago. Your websit is great!

sim,

It depends on what kind of hotdog you eat?

If the hotdog is on whole wheat bun and if it's low fat then it's OK but...

You shouldn't try to make hotdogs a staple of your weight loss diet anyway

Adrian Bryant | 08.17.08 - 11:37 am

it didnt say anything avout hot dogs. whats up with that? can I eat 2?

Good day sire
I am Hashim, 22 years old
I am facing some problems regarding to my body & my shape in general. Before 6 weeks I started a diet program which focuses on eating only proteins, fat, water and vegetables. And staying away from eating any thing related to carbohydrates such as fruits, bread, corn, milk, soda and sugar.

I am 179 cm tall and my weight before starting the diet was 142 KGs , now I weight 129 KGs.

What I need to know is, can I start weight training write now , and how can I start ?
My chest (breasts) are big – and that is embarrassing - and I need to stretch them?
And If I can't start weight training , could I just look for a solution to the embarrassing part ?

Regards

T am 5ft 7 and weigh 150lb.I only want to lose about 10lbs but as i have been drinking about 5 cans of diet coke a day(and full fat ones on the weekend!!) i seem to be struggling on my normal diet to lose anything! Have worked out my calorie intake which is 1222 to 1598 a day.What set amount should i stick to? Another question,why does it say that diet sodas are so bad for you?

GinaB,

Complex carbs like oatmeal about 30min-to-1 hour before a workout is best and after a workout...

If you're trying to lose weight and I assume you are... It's best to have some protein preferably a protein shake and complex carbs esp. those high in fiber to kill your appetite and increase your post workout fat burning

Adrian Bryant | 07.24.08 - 9:49 pm

#23

Adrian, I forgot to add to my last statements I just sent you, why am I so hungry after I exercise? And is protein the best thing to eat right after a workout? What about right before? I've heard to combine both carbs & protein right before a workout, is this true?

Man,

If weight loss is your goal - you can still Do this fast weight loss plan here and instead of whey or soy protein shakes for #2 - you can eat another 100 calorie protien source like raw nuts or cans of tuna and instead of weight loss pills - you can drink green tea for fat burner

Nelly,

Are you still looking better or about the same as you gain weight? - if so , you have nothing to worry about but...

Can you tell me how many meals you eat a day (I think you said 4) and can you tell me how many total calories you're eating everyday and...

Tell me what your workout routine is and exactly what exercises you're doing.

And also Read #3, & #6-TO-9 again

Don't worry - We can both put our heads together and figure this out but like I said...

If you look good and people around you notice the difference - yu shouldn't worry

Adrian Bryant | 07.21.08 - 8:09 pm

nelly,

Yes - be pateint but... You may already be closer to your goal of a better looking body than you think...

DO YOU LOOK 150 pounds? if no... then I wouldn't worry too much about what the scale says and just continue working out to maintain your lovely figure

Adrian bryant | 07.12.08 - 8:00 pm

My weight was 150 before and Im about 5 ft 7 inch tall and I gained 4 pds since working out to hit 154 now. I want to be at 135-140. And according to the BMI I'm not overweight. So thats why it is taking longer for me to shed the weight? So basically I should continue doing what I am and be patient? Should I also do some weight training aswell? And that link you sent for eating protein, was helpful thank you.

nelly | 07.11.08 - 3:46 pm

Nelly,

You said... "I feel I am losing some weight or looking better but it don’t show on the scale"

That's a sure sign you're firming up and gaining muscle - Read #9 of "10 ways to quickly break out of a weight loss plateau" to see why you shouldn't worry and...

10-to-15 pounds is GOOD! no matter how long it took and...

You can replace meat with other protein sources like raw nuts -See other protein sources and weight loss foods and...

You don't have to take protein shakes but may be a good option ONLY IF you hard time getting enough protein in your weight loss diet and since i forgot to ask you how much you weigh...

Your slow weight loss could be because you're not overweight so doing this plan to lose your last 10 pounds may be better for you and also...

reading the "10 ways to quickly break out of a weight loss plateau" link I gave you may help you get on track losing weight again

Adrian Bryant | 07.11.08 - 1:18 pm

Hello, first of all thanks for replying back. Well I began the interval training program about a month ago since I heard that was the fast way to lose fat and burn calories fast. And I barely use to eat, or say enough. Now I have to force myself to eat at least 3-4 times a day. It’s hard for me to eat that many times, since I’m a vegetarian I run out of ideas what the heck to eat since eating salads, fruits, and vegetables gets lame. And I am a very picky on the stuff I eat; I hate tofu and stuff like that. My diet has become a little better now, since I make sure I eat on time and I stay away from junk food. However, I was bummed out seeing no results on the scale. I feel I am losing some weight or looking better but it don’t show on the scale. I do the workouts 3 days a week for about 45min or 1 hr is that enough? This really sucks, I never really had to lose weight before and my weight loss is only 10-15 pds. What can I eat to fulfill the loss of the meat that I don’t consume? And should I be taking some type of protein shake? Since I am vegetarian should I be watching carbs?

nelly | 07.11.08 - 12:19 am

nelly,

Yes - it could be muscle but more importantly - how much are you eating and how much where you eating before you started the interval workouts

Adrian bryant | 07.10.08 - 10:17 am

I been trying the interval training program. And im a veggie. im trying to loose 15 pds and instead i have been gaining. it that muscle or just fat? help what am i doing wrong..
