Beffy asked:


I currently started working out 4-5 times a week. I wouldn’t say that I am a “fat” person. I just have the fat that covers the muscle that I want to get rid of. I want to get on a better diet plan but I am always so lost on what I should be eating to help in burning fat. I am not a fan of all carb, or all this or that diets etc. I just want something simple, but not something where I have to completely cut something out of my diet. Anyone have any suggestions?

i **** phil collins asked:


Weight Watchers vs. Jenny Craig (whatever you want to eat vs. prepackaged high sodium foods)

or

Atkins vs. Vegan (mostly eggs and meat vs. no meat or animal by-products)

1. Which would be easier to write about (more information on the web)
2. Which one would you be more interested in reading??
3. Have you been on any of these diets– if so, can you give me key pointers for what to talk about??

THANKS!
but see, the fact that they are both lifestyle choices AND diets is a good reason to write about them

Newlywed! asked:


Do any of you know any good diet plans? I want to lose at least 20 pounds in a month and a half because I have to get in a dress. Any suggestions? I do cardio 3 times a week and work out 2 days a week, and I have decided that I need to do more cardio during the week…so it’s not like I don’t exercise, I just have really bad eating habits and don’t know of any good diets. And also, I **** drinking only water, and I’m addicted to pop. Any good drinks you can think of with low calories? No diet coke/pepsi though…thanks in advance =)

Troy Francis asked:


ans spend billions upon billions of dollars every year trying to get in shape. We try weight loss diet after weight loss diet, only to fail miserably, or lose a little and then gain it back once we stop the diet. We’ve all heard the advice that “diets don’t work,” but what DOES work? Is there really a healthy weight loss diet we can start today and stay on– reasonably–forever?

There is no simple answer to this question. There is so much confusing research and so many conflicting studies that people don’t know where to turn. Every book that comes out claims to contain the latest and greatest weight loss diet. Every guru you see on TV says they have the secret. But it seems that every time you try something new, you end up disappointed.

So, when you need a weight loss diet, what should you look for? There are a few basic principles that everyone should keep in mind when searching for a weight loss diet. Let’s mention them briefly.

First, many experts would probably agree that the solution to America’s weight problem can be summed up in one phrase: calories in, calories out. Speaking strictly about weight loss (not necessarily about health), in order to lose weight you must burn off more calories than you consume. Every pound equates to 3500 calories. So even if you consume 2000 calories every day, if you don’t burn off 2000 or more, you’ll gain weight. If you consume 1500 calories and burn off 2000, you’ll lose weight. It sounds simple, but as anyone who’s ever tried (and failed) to lose weight can tell you, it isn’t that easy! People have varying opinions on how your weight loss diet should go about achieving the proper calories in / calories out ratio, but calories certainly do matter when you’re on a weight loss diet.

Second, look for something that makes good nutritional sense to you. A weight loss diet that promises a 10-pound loss in a weekend might sound great, but if you achieve that loss by consuming only some special juice or lemon water for three days, you’re probably smart to give that program the heave-ho. A good weight loss diet will allow you to consume fewer calories without losing vital nutrients or risking your health. And any weight loss diet that works that quickly and requires such drastic measures will likely result in weight GAIN over the long haul.

Third, any weight loss diet or program you go on should encourage exercise. If they tell you that exercise is not required, they’re not looking out for your health. Even when you’re not on a weight loss diet or trying to get into shape, exercise is good for you and beneficial in too many ways to count. Some exercise, even a little, is better than none at all. Any weight loss diet that encourages or promises substantial, “healthy” weight loss without exercise is better left alone.

Basically, look for a program that isn’t too extreme. You need a weight loss diet that you can stick with–at least most of the time. Beware those lofty promises of miraculous losses, all while eating ice cream and sitting on the couch. A weight loss diet that’s worth trying will require some work. It will ask you to make some modifications to your current lifestyle, but without sacrificing your health. http://www.exercise-diet.com/

Proud Mommy of Zoey asked:


I want to lose the baby weight while I’m breastfeeding. I’m hoping that my body will use my stored fat to make milk. From experience, which diets work best for this? I want my milk to be good for the baby, so I can’t go on any diets that cut out food groups completely.

Any books or websites with the diet plans on them would be helpful I’m trying to read up before I give birth!

smart person asked:


I am somewhat on the chubby side. Really, the only problem area I have is my belly. What can I do to get rid of this unwanted fat? Any good diets and excercise routines?

MJ asked:


I am 17 and looking for diet to try like jenny craig and nutrisystem, but those are way expensive so does anyone know of any cheaper diets that help you lose alot of weight.
I’d rather be put on the diet than actually trying to make the food myself. I’ll cheat horribly.
