if you want to lose weight, go on a diet like weight watchers, or something like that.  try to avoid stuff like slim-fast, cuz then when you eat something real, all the weight that you lost will just come back-like no other.  if you want to look better, i suggest excercise and a diet.  since muscle weighs more than fat, you will want to stay in shape while you try to lose weight, but dont over-do it.

The best way to lose weight is not by pills.  Believe me, I have tried it and what it actually does is slow down your digestion of food..after a couple of weeks use, your digestion will become impaired and your stomach compensates this by producing lots and lots of acid..goes all the way up your throat.  It's a nasty feeling.\n\nThe best way is to eat the right food.  Most overweight people only get contented when they feel full or after eating a lot of food.  You can still eat a lot of food but it has to be vegetables, they don't make you fat no matter how much you eat them.  Fish is good too.  Try to minimize on pork and beef.  A can of softdrink is loaded with a cup of sugar too, if you really want to drink it go for the Diet ones.  Fruit is healthy for you but again you have to minimize on this because it has a lot of sugar in it as well.\n\nGo for at least 30-minute walk/briskwalk every evening.  I noticed that when i do this, my stomach becomes flat when i wake up in the morning.  Plus it gives shape to your legs.  No need for all those exercise positions.  Walking is the best for your blood circulation and wellness of your mind.\n\nWhen you start to lose weight, your body is gonna signal you that it needs replenishing by making you crave ice cream, french fries and other fattening food.  When you resist this food cravings this is really gonna fast track you to losing weight.  You can still satisfy your cravings once in a while but eat something else instead of the fatty foods.\n\nI hope this contributes. :)

Watch what you eat (cut out junk food, sodas, stuff like that) and exercise regularly. The key to losing weight is to burn more calories than you consume, but to do it in a healthy manner.

You probably know that virtually hundreds of different fad diets, weight-loss programs and outright scams promise quick and easy weight loss. But the foundation of every successful weight-loss program still remains a healthy diet combined with exercise. You must make permanent changes in your lifestyle and health habits to lose significant weight and keep it off.\n\nHow do you make those permanent changes? Follow these six strategies.\n\n\n1. Make a commitment\n\nPermanent weight loss takes time and effort. It requires concentration and a lifelong commitment. Make sure that you're ready to make the necessary permanent changes and that you do so for the right reasons.\n\nNo one else can make you lose weight. In fact, external pressure — often from people closest to you — may make matters worse. You must undertake diet and exercise changes to please yourself.\n\nAs you're planning new weight-related lifestyle changes, try to resolve any other problems in your life. It takes considerable mental and physical energy to change your habits. So make sure you aren't distracted by other major life issues, such as marital or financial problems. Timing is key to success. Ask yourself if you're ready to take on the challenges of serious weight loss.\n\nKeep in mind that no matter how prepared you may be, you'll occasionally overeat or eat foods that you should avoid. Rather than let a setback derail your efforts, accept that it happened and get back on track. Don't expect perfection — and never give up.\n\nMotivate yourself by focusing on all of the benefits of losing weight, such as having more energy and improving your health. Then look at the negatives, such as finding the time to exercise, and come up with creative solutions.\n\n\nMore On This Topic\nWeight loss: Are you ready? \n2. Get emotional support\n\nUltimately, only you can help yourself lose weight by taking responsibility for your own behavior. But that doesn't mean that you have to do everything alone. Seek support from your partner, family and friends.\n\nPick people who you know want only the best for you and who will encourage you. They should be available to listen to your thoughts and feelings and encourage you, perhaps spend time exercising with you, and share the priority you've placed on developing a healthier lifestyle. An ideal support person might be someone who also is participating in a weight-loss program.\n\nSome people fare better with professional support, such as a dietitian or personal trainer. Others benefit from the group support they receive from organizations such as Weight Watchers or Overeaters Anonymous.\n\nIf you do join a group, keep in mind that what you get out of it will be in proportion to what you put into it. If you sit in a corner and just listen, you may hear some good suggestions. But if you actively participate, you're more likely to reap the potential rewards of the group, such as support, encouragement, feeling that you're not alone and helpful suggestions specific to your concerns.\n\n\n3. Set a realistic goal\n\nWhen you're considering what to expect from your new eating and exercise plan, be realistic. Healthy weight loss occurs slowly and steadily. Aim to lose 1 to 2 pounds a week. To do this, you need to burn 500 to 1,000 calories a day through a low-calorie diet and regular exercise. Losing weight more rapidly means losing water weight or muscle tissue, rather than fat.\n\nSet weekly or monthly goals, and then track your progress. Remember that you're in this for the long haul. Anything you undertake too intensely or too vigorously may quickly become too onerous, so you're more likely to give up.\n\nIn addition, make your goals "process goals," such as eating judiciously and exercising regularly, rather than "outcome goals," such as losing 50 pounds. Changing your process — your habits — is the key to weight loss. Make sure that your process goals a

Cardio is the best thing to lose fat . . . try cutting out calories from your diet too, basic stuff is the best. If you want some guidance, go to www.sparkpeople.com, it's like ediets.com except free. I lost some weight by becoming a vegetarian (like 15 lbs.)\n\nGood luck!!!

What you have to do is make your weight loss part of just having a healthier lifestyle.\n\nDiet and fitness work together toward a healthy lifestyle. Changing your diet and your level of fitness is what can change the way you look and feel. The best way to lose weight is about living a healthier life than what you may be living now. You will need a complete lifestyle change and you will need to be committed.\n\nThe body loses about 2 pounds a week optimally and that’s 2 pounds that stay off. When you drop at a faster rate your body could potentially rebound and either plateau your weight loss or put extra weight on. If you are committed then you should reach your goal.\n\nThere will be 5 basic elements you need to adjust to have a healthy lifestyle.\nThey are:\n\n1. Your Eating\n2. Your Water Intake\n3. Maintaining a balance of cardio and resistance exercise\n4. Smart supplementation\n5. Sleeping the best amount of time

1. A safe level and effective level of weight loss that is about 1-2 pounds per week.. More than that could be unhealthy is is usually not lasting. Look to make lasting changes in your diet and lifestyle, then you will keep the weight off.  \n2. The only way to lose weight is to take in fewer calories that you burn. There is no secret to it. You can do this by dieting to lower your calorie intake, exercise to increase it, or a combination of both. Depending on your current activity level, even adding some walking into the schedule can help.\n3.  Muscle weighs more than fat but is more compact.  Adding muscle may make you look slimmer, and the muscle burns more calories at rest than fat so it can keep you slimmer.\n4. There are many effective diet programs that you can follow on your own or join. These programs do a few things: they can help educate you on proper nutrition; they help you control portions and calorie intake; and, they usually require you to keep a record of your eating behavior. Find one that is comfortable for you if you think it will help, or do it on your own.\n5. Writing down everything you eat over a few days can be very helpful in terms of identifying your problem areas.\n6 There are some helpul resources available from the US Government, including suggested diet and a calorie tracker that allows you to evaluate your food intake for calories and nutrients, and compare it to the calories that you burn through daily activities. I have some articles on my website as well. Links are shown below. \nGood luck!

The healthy way of losing weight is at only 2.5 - 4 kgs/month. Anything beyond this is unhealthy. If your goal is to look good and feel great and do this for even the next "parties or get together", then I woudl suggest you do it the healthy way. To do this, you need to drink plenty of water. The prescribed is 8 to 10 glasses of water but if you can drink 10 - 15 glasses a day that is good as it hastens your metabolism and flushes out toxins from your body. Another is to do exercise or do a lot of house work requiring exertion of effort to get you sweating. Try to spead your usual three meals to six small meals. Cut down or eliminate burgers, fries, and softdrinks!\n\nWhen that family event comes, suggest you dress in dark colors or stripes to accentuate lenght and not width (or girth).\n\nHope this helps you.

The best and only way in my opinion to lose weight is to work out and eat fewer calories based on your bodies needs (fitwatch.com has a calculator to figure that out).  I have lost 38 pounds since January by reducing my caloric intake and working out at least 6 days a week.  It seems like it would be overwhelming but it's all about making a lifestyle change. The best tool i have found is calorie king.  It has the nutrition breakdown for any and every food including restraunts - very useful. Self is also very useful, the magazine is very motivating and has great tips.  Online you can join the body makeover challenge and it has great tools too.

You are probably looking for a better answer, but the simplest and best way to lose weight is to keep track every single thing that crosses your lips each and every day.\nI've been tracking calories since mid-June, and have lost 25 #.  I'm not one to "diet", and I love to eat, but I got to the end of my rope and was miserable with myself.  Some useful tools are the calorie diary/tracker, and the Calorie King books that give nutritional information on nearly every restaurant, and all food types.  We eat out more than most, and I've done it through out this entire weight loss.\nPut your mind to it, as my Grandma used to say, and good luck to you!

The fastest way to lose weight is to elevate your heart rate as many times and and as high as you can safely elevate it. Eat small portions of meals many times a day instead of really big portions only a few times a day. Jump rope rules. Anything running or sprinting will burn a super amount of calories, incomparable to weight lost just dieting.\n\nhttp://www.jimmyr.com/lose_weight.php
