The Promise: "I will help you build ripped muscle mass that will make ANY woman wet their panties because of how big, sexy, & perfectly shaped your muscles are" (by Al Alfaro) Get it now!
The first article you provided has some good advice in regards to weight loss. The important thing to remember about losing weight is that you need to do it on your terms and in a way that works for you. Don't let anyone tell you how to exercise or what to eat since it may not be for you or even work for you.
First, ask yourself these questions: Why do you want to lose weight? Are you overweight? If so, why?
Do you have any medical conditions that prevent you from losing weight? Do you have poor eating and exercise habits? How much do you want to lose and by when?(Please keep in mind that it is healthy and realistic to lose 1 to 2 lbs per week.) Second, visit websites (or a family doctor) to guide you on what BMI, weight, and calories are ideal for you.
Websites such as weightlosscalculators.org or freedieting.com/tools/weight_loss_tools.htm provide calculators that will give you an idea of where you need to be. When losing weight, start slow if it is something your body/mind is not used to! When it comes to food, portion control is a great way to start.
Follow serving sizes on the labels. You know that cereal you might have in the morning? Did you know that you may actually be eating 3 times the recommended serving size, therefore tripling your caloric intake of that meal?
(If serving sizes are not available, try eating on smaller plates or bowls). Following serving sizes and sticking with portion control will make it easier when trying to keep track and limit calories.It will be difficult, and at least try and follow serving sizes on a few foods at first. Your body will eventually adjust to the smaller portions.
Drinking water is a plus when trying to lose weight. Did you know that your body can sometimes confuse hunger and thirst? If you think you may be hungry, try drinking water instead.
If you hate the idea of drinking water all the time, at least try a bottle a day. If you love fast food and find it convenient (or tasty) to eat every now and then, try and stick with healthier options. Many fast food restaurants provide nutritional information on their websites.
Try and find meals/sandwiches under 500 calories.Do not forget to splurge on the foods you love! (Rewarding myself with dessert has helped me cut my dinner in half with the thinking of "If I eat half of this, I could eat a bowl of ice cream later, instead of a bigger portion of dinner AND dessert. ") Do not skip meals.
Eat either three large meals during the day or six small meals - whatever works for you! When it comes to exercising, try and do something you will enjoy doing. If you treat exercising like a chore, you won't do it.
Start simple. Do 10-15 minute exercises. Do a few sit-ups, push-ups, jumping jacks, try a jump rope, run in place, take a walk, run up and down a set of stairs, URL5 may take you awhile to find an activity that you will enjoy and thus making exercising fun and effortless.
Finally, keep track of what works for you. If you try a new food or exercise regimen, write down what you thought about it. Can you stick with it?
How would you modify it? There are many websites where you could keep track of your weight loss journey and talk with others in the same boat as you, such as SparkPeople.com. Good luck!
Track your calorie intake for the day. There are MANY websites that can help with this, but I would recommend the following: freedieting.com/tools/calorie_calculator... As for whether or not you're "Fat", you should check your BMI to find a healthy range: mayoclinic.com/health/bmi-calculator/NU0... When done with that, look at the foods you eat on a daily basis. If you're eating large portions, stop.
Graze throughout the day on healthy, filling snacks such as apples, rice cakes, etc. Eat smaller meals (i.e. Exactly what you can fit on a small dinner plate, NOT PILED). Cut out fatty foods and sugary foods.
Stay within your daily caloric intake, and in fact, fly a little below it. Enroll in a fitness program at a local YMCA, etc.Something where you'll be around people that can encourage you. You need more than just determination to make it happen; you need a good support system.
Good luck!
My girlfriend wanted to lose weight, but she still wanted to eat fast foods and ice cream and stuff. I used to be on the basketball team and the workout we do has helped me maintain my body (as you can see 4 your self myspace. Com/yungnballin4life) all I do is do the work out everyday.My girlfriend is now using my method an has lost 15 pounds in one month.
Here is the method 3 sets of each -3 min break after each start off at 15 for week one the go to 20 week 2 then 25 week 3 the 30 week 4 (keep it at 30 because these are advance workout) 15 diamond push ups benefit of diamond Place your body in a straight, horizontal position. Slide your feet apart to approximately shoulder-width. Place your hands together, directly under your sternum, with the tips of your index fingers and thumbs touching.
Your fingers and thumb should form sort of a diamond or triangle shape. This type of push ups puts a heavy emphasis on the triceps, and lightens the load on the pectoral muscles. Here's a picture on how to do it all your doin is putting your 2 index fingers together along with you tum connected to form a diamond (see picture)
MAKE IT YOUR GOAL TO DO IT IF YOU WANNA LOOSE IT.
Make an appointment with your Doctor, get a referral to a dietician. What works for someone else may damage your health. You need a program that is tailored to you.
What works for me is eating half as much food but twice as often. What works for my wife is eating a specific number of calories (fat/carbs) per meal and a specific number of calories (carbs only) for snacks. Same principal, half as much, twice as often but her intake is different than mine.
Starvation diets make you store fat. Imbalanced diets hurt your body (like all protein, no carb types). Eating process foods (like diet drinks, yogurt, supplements only) makes you gain 30% more weight than eating food that you have to actually chew and digest normally.
Every time you eat you burn calories. I eat all the food I normally do, I just cut it in half and eat the rest 2 hours later. Bam, I lose fat.
But I need to be active or I lose all the benefits later. Any diet regime should be accompanied by proper exercise (where your heart rate actually increases for the whole routine) and should only be done under the advisement of a physician.
I think the first one is better that getting the DVD. You could break down your three meals into six tiny meals each day, provided you avoid the sweets and carbs and substitute them with fruit veggies that's full or fiber and white meat that's full of protein. But dieting is not enough to lower down your weight.
You should exercise, too. Ask your family doctor if you could do weight training. It would complement your six mini-diets.
Weight can be kind of intimidating, but work a set of weights that you can lift, but enough to give effort. Diet is boring when you don't give some incentives. Make your weekend pig-out days.
You could have anything, but in moderation. Hope this helps. Peace!
Try the "South Beach Diet" it is a very healthy way to eat and you can have real food. The first 2 weeks are the hardest,because alot of things are eliminated from your menu. But it gets easier.
I lost 40 pounds in 2 months while on this plan. I also walked every day (mon-fri) . Usually walked 4 miles.
But you could start out with 1 mile and increase everyday. Good luck!
In my opinion you have to find what works for you! What works for one person might not work for you. Find out what your weakness is, sweets or maybe fried foods?
Then find a way to substitute for it or cut down on it that works for you. If you feel deprived all the time you are not going to stick to it and will back slide.
I'm going to break my own rules and answer this without sourcing, based on personal experience. I happen to weigh over 260 lbs and am less than 6 feet tall. I have been trying to lose weight for several months, but have led a sedentary lifestyle for many years, and I find it difficult to do even basic exercises.
I looked at both your sources, and I think the first one gives you better advice. The second one is trying to sell you a DVD that is probably too challenging for you. I wish you well, I'm right there with you.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
