2 reasons Why it takes longer to lose your last 10 pounds...

1. You don't burn as many calories doing weight loss activities

As you lose weight you'll burn less calories doing the same activity because since you weigh less - your body has to burn less calories or use less energy to move a lighter weight so for example...

You used to burn 238 calories walking 4 mph for 30 minutes when you weighed 200 pounds but once you weigh 130 pounds you'll only burn 155 calories walking at 4 mph - See how to burn more calories

2. You don't have too much weight to lose

If you were 300 pounds & overweight - You could probably lose 2-to-5 pounds a week but if you only had 10 pounds to lose...

You may lose 2 pounds some weeks but you should expect to lose only 1-to-2 pounds a week and some weeks you'll lose less than a 1 lb. because as you lose weight...

Your overall fat burning metabolism decreases which doesn't make you stop burning fat but it makes you burn fat at a slower rate so...

It's not exactly harder to lose your last 10 pounds...

It just takes longer to lose your last ten pounds because of reasons #1 & #2 above and that's why you really don't want to cheat on your weight loss plan when trying to lose your last 10 pounds and because of the slower weight loss rate...

NO

Weight gain comes from Eating too much and not moving (simple)

It does not come from when and where you eat

Adrian Bryant | 09.11.09 - 7:16 am

Are you suree though? I get so worried I wait atleast 30 mins before falling alseep on a full stomach. Im worried I'll gain the weight

PIRLANTAA | 09.10.09 - 8:11 pm

that's something you totally DO NOT have to worry about.

WOrry about the quality of the foods you eat and how much you eat

Adrian Bryant | 09.03.09 - 11:30 am

Sorry!
I meant to ask, how long should I wait after I eat to go to sleep?

You have plenty of time - i think you'll definitely lose your 20 pounds before may of next year

Adrian Bryant | 08.20.09 - 11:58 pm

Oh, no. It's not just 2 days. It's a full month of fasting. I can eat before Sunrise and break my fast after sunset. After I break my fast, I plan on drinking greentea..andd walking for half-one hour. Will this fast still prevent me from loosing? I want to loose it before May of 2010. Possiblee?

It's not HARDER to lose last few pounds - it just takes longer and 2 days of fasting should not make it any longer (it may speed it up if nothing else) but of course Im not recommending people fast

Adrian | 08.19.09 - 4:07 pm

I want to loose my last 15-20 LBS. Howeverr, I will be fasting in 2 days. I don't plan on pigging out at night, and eating something light with green tea after.

Will it be hard for me to loose my last LBS during fasting?

PIRLANTAA | 08.19.09 - 2:26 pm

i weighed 141 in december. now after 4 months of vigorously working out sometimes to the tune of 800 cals per day, and eating about 1700 cals i weigh 147. My question is where does all this excess energy and should be weight loss go, is it just not happening bc my metabolism is nothing-just shot? what do i do to break this metabolic famine i've created?

SherriFrank07,

This is the best plan for your weight & height

Adrian Bryant | 01.27.09 - 6:06 pm

My name is Sherri and I am 22 years old. About 2 years ago I was happy with my weight, I was probably between 130-135 and I was dancing every single weekend going out and lost weight without even trying, and I wasn't on any special diet either, I ate whatever I wanted. I got down to 120 pounds and I looked my best ever. Now that my boyfriend and I have started dating for two years I am now at 140, but I started gaining it back before I met him. I can tell in pictures in my face I have gained weight and I hate it. I know I am not fat but I would like to get back to 120 and stay that way. Could you give me any advice on workouts and diets for my weight and height. I am 140 and 5'4. I have a membership at the gym but I am not ever sure what to do when I go in there. Thank you!

val,

Read that part again because eating under 1200 calories was just an example of "WHY" not to eat low calories so... Read why VLCD do not work

Adrian Bryant | 08.10.08 - 7:00 am

you said when you get to 120, you have to eat 500-800 to keep losing, so one should start exercising to continue losing, but wouldn't me eating 700 calories without exercising be the same as me eating 1100 calories and running to burn off 400 calories every day??? Thank you!!

r.slik86,

In the short term - lifting weights will make you gain muscle weight (which is good) and you may look bigger but in the long run...

The muscle you gain will help increase your metabolism and it'll help you maintain your weight easier and...

hi my name is rob and let me tell you i have succesfully lost 45 pounds over the course of 4 months. my weight was literally 245 pounds and currently , i weigh in around 198-200pds. my goal is to weigh in at 185 but im not lookin pass the process of hitting 190pds(this is where i need to drop the 10) and when i reach that goal, i can look foward to dropping the other 5 with confidence. During the whole process all i did was cardio inside the gym. for some reason, my results had slown down because i think i reached what you call a plateau phase. i decided to change my work out into doing cardio outdoors and then i saw tremendous results. all i wanna do now is drop 15 more but i need to lose the first 10. I thought of changing my work out by lifting weights because i barely lifted throughout the process. will this new excercise of lifting weights help me lose the 10.lbs i wanna lift weights but im scarred of getting big or even appearing a bit larger , what should i do ?
