I don't get it..do u?

ok i eat healthy and all and i come to my dads and eat junk all july of this year and now i loose weight? what in the world? like i still work out just now i eat junk and fish and seafood and stuff
??how??iluv it but how?lol
Answer:
its because when u eat a lot, your metabolism gets a huge boost and causes u to burn a lot more calories. u lose weight because of this.
however, this will not last. if u continue eating like this, your body gets adjusted and your metabolism goes back to normal, and u will begin to put on weight quickly.
I didn't just understand that.. Use english next time. Um, if I kinda get what you're saying you probably just have a fast metabolism.
You could be losing muscle and gaining fat instead, that would make you lighter. Eating all the junk food is going to put fat on you, irregardless its not healthy for you, it's going to eventually take its toll even though it may not be immediate.

I do sit-ups to loose my stomach, do I need cardio also?

I've started to do sit-ups everyday (3 types of them since July 1.) and I do about 160 of them along with some push-ups, but do I need to run also or am I doing well with my normal routine?I dont eat candy, no fast-food (well, maybe once a month) I just eat the stuff my mom makes at home and I try eating veggies, salads, etc. The only thing is that I don't drink as much water as I should, I usually drink about 2 bottle a day.
Answer:
Try This
My AB Workout consists of 3 basic exercises. These exercises work on the 3 abdominal groups, worked out in the correct order to get maximum results.1. Leg raises (Rectus Abdominis)
2. Side Crunches ( External/Internal Obliques)
3. Straight Crunches (Transverse Abdominis)Here is how it works. You want to get up to where you are doing 3 sets of 25 reps for each exercise. But start with one set of 15, then 20, then 25. Then start with 2 sets of each, then finally 3 sets. Only allowing a 30 to 45 second break between sets.1. Lie flat on a mat, with your hands placed at your lower back, close to your butt. Now with your legs bent slightly, and toes pointed away from your body, with legs together, lift your legs up 6 inches off the ground. Each rep consists of lifting your legs from 6 inches to 12 inches. You cannot put your legs on the ground till the set is done. Go between 6 inches, to 12 inches, and back. Each time you reach the 6 inch mark, count one rep. Each movement should be one second. One second up, one second down. 2. Lie with your back flat on the mat, your legs should be bent so that your feet are flat on the mat, about shoulder width apart. Your hands should not be behind your head, but place them under your opposite armpits, or chest. Now you curl up, not lifting your lower back off the mat, (these are crunches, not situps) Your rep consists of curling your right elbow towards your left knee, and then the other side. You do not touch your knee. One second up, one second, down. One second other side, one second down. A rep consists of both sides being done. So your rep is done when you have moved up, and down, on each side. (This one you will notice right away)3. Lie the same way as in number 2 above, with the hands in the same position. Now this one you just curl straight up, hold for a second, then back down. Do not jerk yourself up, Curl yourself up. Each rep consists of one up, and one down. Each time you are on the mat with your back, counts as one rep.NOTE: You can do abs every day. But I find if I rest one day a week, I reward myself for sticking with it. GOOD LUCK, and enjoy your SIX PACK.
You need to drink more water, everything in your diet seems to be okay. When you're doing situps you have to take into account to build your back muscles too or you could end up turning into a hunchback, if you build a lot of muscle in your ab area without working on your back too, your stomach can actually pull-in and make your back seem crooked. And as for the cardio, it doesn't hurt to do some cardiovascular exercise every now and then. Happy Exercising to you!
Sit ups are more for toning, Cardio is what burns calories and is what causes you to maintain or lose weight.
cardio is your best bet to lose fat around your midsection. ab workouts will help you strengthen your core and build muscle there, but not until you lose the fat will you be able to see them. Even what we eat at home can be unhealthy, we need to learn how to eat in moderation and make three meals into 6 smaller meals spaced throughout the day. and water is also very important. if you love soft drinks or sugar drinks, that means still alot of calories are being consumed. a lot of people say they don't enjoy food with water, but after drinking water for a while, you will see that nothing else is better for enjoying food. anyways, good luck.

I do exercise a lot but I'm not any slimmer.Why?What shall I do?

Answer:
Hi DiianaThe one thing you have to try and be here, is patient. Give it time!! There is a great guy who may be able to help.He runs a great site with lots of free info and I totally recommend him and you can check him out here honey.http://kirksmiths.com/promotions/weight_...
Eat more healthier
Less fat %26 sugar in your diet should do the trick
You sound very athletic and most guys prefer that in a woman.You see some women who are too slim and that cant be healthy..
stop eatting pie
You have to add in a healthy diet with your active lifestyle. They go hand in hand.
Look at exercise at accounts payable and diet as accounts receivable. You can get a pretty accurate balance sheet of caloric loss and gain by looking at the values of what you eat and estimates of what you burn by exercising (I know you can find that kind of information on the Internet). Beyond that, it may simply be genetics. You may just have to make peace with your body.
Excercise does not make you slim, unless if you are overweight. Excercise builds up muscle, and makes you fit. Slimming is an entirely different thing... Here's a good article on how to slim legs:http://www.jurgita.com/articles-id176.ht...Hope it all goes well for you!
Eat less junk food, thats the ticket.
You have to exercise a LOT to lose weight, if that's what you mean. Try eating fewer carbs, unless they are whole grain (first ingredient in any product must say "whole"). I just checked with my doctor and asked him which was worse - fat or carbs. He said carbs for sure. That doesn't mean you can just eat a lot of fat, but eat monounsaturated fats - olive oil, for instance. Stay away from high glycemic foods - potatoes, fruit, etc. that have a lot of sugar or convert quickly to sugar (carbs).Most of all, accept your body as it is. It is part of what makes you, you! Good luck!
Losing weight isn't all about exercise. If your not changing your diet, then that could be why you aren't losing weight. Cut out the soft drinks and candies, except dark chocolate. Eat one bar a day. Drink water instead. Eat fish 2x's a week or more. Eat lots of fruits and veggies, but not more than the daily recommended values. Take vitamins to insure your getting your daily values. Eat a good breakfast like the Special K breakfast, or yogurt, toast(lowfat, if any butter),and orange juice. Make sure all your meals are well portioned. Don't eat till your full, only till your not hungry anymore.
Do more butt exercise than other exercises.
Like just stand straight thn do ups and downs
You are doing the right thing.Now, you probably have to adjust some of your eating to get slim.Avoid or reduce the following:
White flour products, white rice, pastry, sugar and sugary drinks, and fats. (Alcohol too)Eat a lot of veggies, beans, lean meat, fish and poultry, fruit, whole flour products, etc.A change in your eating habits will change the quality of calories you intake and will lessen the amount of sugar (which if not burn immediately becomes fat), and fat you store in you body. Give it a try for a month or so and see what happens. You do not have to be totally strict, a snack every once in a while is alright too.
An "athletic" fit woman is attractive, as you know.
If you exercise too much/ overdue it at one time you can put your body in a state of stress which will cause it to release cortisol and thus store fat. Look at the foods you eat and how often you are eating. Small healthy meals every few hours raises you metabolism. You also want to make sure you are not eating foods that will cause insulin spikes like simple sugars, most carbs . Carbs that come from whole grains, veggies and most fruits are good carbs and crucial for optimum health. Berries are the best source for fruit . You want to eat foods with a low glycemic index so that you don't get those insulin spikes. Protein foods help keep you feeling fuller longer but don't go crazy on the protein. Since you exercise a lot I would stay within the 60 grams a day range but too much protein can tax the liver. Make sure you are drinking plenty of water. Water also helps rid the body of fat and helps the body not to store water which makes you appear heavier. Do not eat before bed. Your metabolism slows during sleep.
How long have you been doing this exercise routine? It sounds fine, and given time will produce results. These things don't happen quickly though, sorry! Keep at it and don't lose too much motivation.
Diiana, I don't see why you wanna have a slimmer legs instead be proud of yourself if they are strong, I love to see those legs , whooo that's what all men like to see, go ahead show us those strong legs baby, why don't you send me some pictures ?

Answer:
Forget about counting. I didn't, just eat healthily and lost 31lbs.Try these
1) Eat 5 to 6 times a day.
2) Eat lots of veggies, lean meat and complex carbs
(low carb, low fat, high fibre, high protein.)
3) Reduce sugar intake and simple carbs. They make
you hungry fast.Cut junk food .
4) Take 2 to 3 cups of low fat milk, cheese, yoghurt.
5) Choose an exercise that you like and will do for life.I am on low carb, low fat, high fibre, high protein and an hour brisk walk every weekday morning.
And I am still at 108 lbs since I lost 31 lbs one year ago.More details in my blog. Xiaozhen

I desperately want to loose weight but quiet fast,i don't really ind what kind of diet it is.?


Answer:
Cut down on breads and starches (rice, potatoes, pastas), refined sugars. Gradually ease off.Get most of your calories from meats, vegetables, fruits, nuts. If you get used to eating whole, nutrient dense foods, you'll find you won't be so hungry between meals.Exercise. Walk, jog, lift weights (start slow, avoid injuries).Drink water. Cut down on soft drinks, artificial sweetners, you'll find your taste for sugar diminishes.

To successfully lose weight, you must carry out

Ideally, dieting should be done by eating a nutritionally
balanced, low-calorie diet and increasing physical activity.
I found useful informations at

I decided to get myself a personal trainer and have a fitness assesment scheduled for wed.what should i expect

i know i will have to deal with calipers don't know where she will pinch or what other tests i'll undergo. is there anything i can do to prepare?
Answer:
Just buy some Advil to eat after the fact, cause your body is going to hurt really bad after the work out your trainer will make you under go. You will be sore for a day or two.Don't get scared. The trainer needs to know in what physical condition you are in. So, he/she will take your weight, height, age, measure your waist line, calculate BMI. Show you the equipment in a gym. Explain you how to use and what schedule to follow based on your day/eve/weekend schedule.
They would also talk about nutrition, some do's and don't before and after your workout. Some of them will even do a workout with you. One very important thing, find out whether the trainer is certified and how much experience he/she has. Take referals and make phone calls to his/her customers and find out.
You want someone with whom you will be comfortable with.All in all have fun.
It will be a very light run through of different exercises to assess your strength and form. Be prepared to explain to her exactly what your goals are so she can tailor a regimine that fits it. Just wear something your going to be comfortable in.Have a light meal 1-2 hours before you go just to give you enough energy. A small apple and a piece of lean protein, perhaps chicken breast or white fish.It should be an enjoyable experience, her job is to make you feel as comfortable as possible. Also, if you have any questions about diet or "myths" about diet and exercise (like eating after a certain time) this would be a good time to ask away! Ask about foods, sleep, meal timing etc.
Most trainers don't use calipers anymore. They have a machine that you stand on (similar to a scale) that will measure your percentage of body fat. You have to take off your shoes before stepping onto the device. They will also be taking your measurements. Then, you will probably go through a 10 minute cardio warm-up and a basic resistance training workout. They end it with a sales pitch to try and get you to buy their personal training services. I recommend getting some bodybuilding magazines and designing your own wokout routine and fitness goals. If you're a self-motivated person, you will be saving yourself a great deal of cash.

I decided not to eat at IHOP but how many calories would be in this meal?

You get four pancakes with syrup.
a little whip cream is on top
with strawberries
and I would have orderd a side of potato hash brown
And a glass of chocolate milk
and of course a little extra strawberry syrup on top.How much calories would I have eaten if I ate that?
Answer:
Each pancake has 110 calorie and 3 grams of fat x 4=440 calories 12 grams of fat + syrup 50 calories per tablespoon + 197 calorie 12 grams of fat + 158 calories choclate milk + 30 calories strawberries=approx. 900 calories and 25 grams of fat. That is with one portion of potatos and milk. I am not sure how big their portions are.
My best guess is over 1300 calories.
Too many. However, it's also pure junk. The pancakes are white flour loaded with sugar. The whipped cream is fat and sugar. I've not had the strawberry topping there, but it looks as though it's fake strawberry flavored high fructose corn syrup with some real strawberries thrown in for taste and looks. The potatoes are pure grease. The chocolate milk (basically) is also just sugar and flavorings. The syrups, the strawberry and maple flavored, are both very likely just fake flavored high fructose corn syrup. When I do go to IHOP now, I just order a bowl of bean chili (it's very rare to find a vegetarian chili at a non-vegetarian restaurant) and a baked potato. They also have the token veggie burger, but it comes with white bread, which I do not like.When I do go out for pancakes, I go to Cracker Barrell. Yes, it's still white flour, but they tatse better and are less dry. They also at least use real maple syrup. However, I only do pancakes out when I'm out with others and that's the only vegan thing on the menu.My husband and I make pancakes at home, using Hodgston Mills whole grain mix (it's even cheaper than Bisquick) with bananas, apple sauce and/or canned pumpkin for the eggs and oil. (For what it's worth to you, bananas, canned pumpkin and apple sauce work for egg substitutes in most recipes. Apple sauce works for oil substitute in most baking recipes.) For topping, we use real maple syrup and Smart Balance Light and natural fruit spread. I hope this helps.
i say it would be somewhere from 120-140 calories
