Reply from nikki, Age 17 - 08/20/05 - IP#: 24.141.43.xxx yeah listen to those posts there right. the only thing i noticed is that the lower the calories the more food u actually can eat. which is useful when ur limiting your food intake so ur not starving yourself. goodluck :)
Reply from Moe, Age 14 - 08/20/05 - IP#: 69.107.67.xxx I guess your right what I mean is that people do cunches the wrong way and they think that they will eaither lose weight or gain a ton of muscle. When that doesnt happen people get discouraged. Its ok to do crunches and workout but thats only a small part of losing weight. I go by this moto - "WEIGHT LOSS DOES NOT HAPPEN IN THE GYM BUT IN THE KITCHEN" meaning i believe its mostly about cardio and diet.
Reply from Julie, Age 16 - 08/20/05 - IP#: 4.242.171.xxx I disagree with part of what moe said. You should do crunches, and strength training at the gym. This alone won't help you lose weight, but it will build muscle, and the more muscle you have, the more fat you will burn daily, just by living. You should do lots of cardio as well though.
Reply from Moe, Age 14 - 08/20/05 - IP#: 69.107.67.xxx Hi, This is what you should do: 1) Eat 1200 calories a day (a little junk food is ok, but try healthy eating) 2) Drink 8 glassess of water a day - it really helps to burn fat and increase your metabolism 3)Exercise for 30-45 minutes 3-5 times a week. 4) Dont do crunches or situps or work out in the gym - its totally useles for losing weight do cardio (moderate heart rate elavating exercise)5) Dont eat after 5:30 pm. Almost everything you eat after 5:30 will be stored as fat. Using this program you can safely lose 2-3 pounds per week. A goal of 120 for your age and height is ok, but once you reach it it would not heart to drop to 100 -110. Good Luck.
