Do a tun of crunches. If you have like 30% plus body fat 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

By eating well and doing lots of exercise. Simple. Mostly a good variety of fruit, veg,  occasional fish and meat.\n\nTo lose weight, your calorie intake must be lower than your calorie expenditure. If you eat less than you consume you won't lose weight indefinitely because every pound of body weight adds to your calorie expenditure: as your weight decreases, so will the energy demand on your system. Eventually, you will find an equilibrium that fits your dietary intake.\n\nIf you are doing low indurance exercise (e.g. jogging), you will lose fat and muscle until your weight matches your intake, BUT!!! if you finish a low indurance session with some higher indurance exercise (weights around 50 reps) you will encourage your muscles to hang onto their fibres and the fat will disappear quicker. This is how you get "in shape" and get a nice cut physique.\n\nIf you are new to exercise, be aware of "the training curve"... If you are not exercising regularly, your muscles will accummulate fuel (glycogen). When you start to exercise regularly, after initial aches and pains called the IDOMS, you will find a spurt in your fitness. You'll feel pretty good! But...\n\nAs you continue to run down your fuel reserves, your body is not accustomed to putting these back as quick as you are burning them. After your initial spurt there may come a point when you feel drained and you can't face your exercise sessions because your just too pooped...\n\nThis is the time to train to improve your fitness: train your body to replenish the muscle fuel you are burning! This is a key hurdle to getting fit. It's really hard and it can take time but once you are through it you'll feel great!\n\nMental preperation is key because getting in shape requires a lifestyle change and people are generally comfortable in their lifestyle, even if they're not happy with it. Be under no illusions: lifestyle changes are difficult! \n\nMake a list of all the stuff you don't like about your lifestyle now and stick it on the door of your fridge. To remind you of why you are doing what you are doing. \n\nPrepare yourself for the times when you will feel like avoiding your sessions (due to training curve and all other kinds of excuses): write a note to [your future self] to be read when [your future self] is thinking of avoiding a session that explains to [your future self] why you would please like [your future self] to stop being a big wuss and get [your future self's] backside out of the door and onto the freaking bike!

exercise & fewer calories. that's the only way to lose weight and it's not going to come off in one day. you will only lose 2-3 pounds per week, sometimes even just one pound, but dont give up, it will be worth it in the end.\nstart out with a warm up:\ni usually touch my toes while sitting down, legs straight for atleast 30 seconds, to help loosen up, then 3 sets of lifting one leg and both arms up at the same time, 8 times for each leg, switching legs after i do 8. Then, i do 20 sit ups, 40 jumping jacks, and 10 crunches on each side. Then i run up and down my stairs as many times as i can, which is usually 7 unless i take a break lol. then i get on the tredmill and just go for 25 minutes. i try to run for atleast 4 minutes everytime but u might have to work up your running time. then i do a jogging speed for the other 21 minutes. i'm going to try this thing where you run for 30 secs, walk for 30, run 30, etc. for 8 minutes. this will help you increase ur running ability. after that, go back and do atleast 20 more sit ups and touch your toes for 30 seconds again, and you'll be done. considering that you weigh 166, try to consume atleast 1,200-1,300 calories per day. make sure they are HEALTHY calories though, meaning no junk. you can splurge maybe once a week. have lots of fruits and veggies on hand. good luck!

increase your self esteem... or\ndehydrate yourself and go to the bathroom a lot.\n\nyou said easiest.\n\nThe best way to lose weight is simply to elevate your heart rate at least 30 minutes a day. You dont even have to exercise for a long time. You dont have to job, jump, or do stairs. Just do anything that raises your heart rate pretty high for a few minutes, and your heart will continue to pump fast and burn calories. Instead of eating a few big meals a day, eat many small meals.\nMake realistic goals like 5 pounds a month and stick to a routine. Have confidence in yourself and dont obsess by looking in the mirror everyday. It will happen, just have patience :)\nI made a site to check BMI and calories burned per day. It's not all that great but I spent a lot of time adding quality links to the further links section.\nhttp://www.jimmyr.com/lose_weight.php

Go to the gym! Do five minutes of cardio to get your heart rate going, then do some weights, and finally do about a half hour of cardio. You will shed pounds quickly this way (I did).\n\nAlso, be thoughtful about what you eat. Try to take on more fresh fruits and veggies and fewer heavier items. (Dunkin Donuts will NOT help you lose weight!)\n\nI don't think you need to lose weight though. I think you're gorgeous.

The easiest most healthiest way to lose weight fast is to go on a fruit and vegetable, salad, and soup diet. Most of these foods are considered negative calories, calories that get burned up in your digestive system. \n\nAlong with this, excercise!

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.

Relax. \n\nWeight loss (like weight gain) is a slow and gradual process. One of the worst mistakes a dieter can do is to stop eating, or throw it all back up. When this happens, your body goes into a crisis mode and starts to store fat and burn muscle, leaving you still flabby with no muscles. \n\nThe best way to lose weight is through healthy eating and exercise. Weight loss is simple math, consume less calories than you burn and you will lose weight. \n\nBe patient and continue to push yourself physically. If your current regiment of exercising is becoming too easy, increase the distance when you jog, or increase the number of endurance exercises you do.

Be your own trainer and nutritionist, the basic rules to losing weight are no soda, no fast food, lots of chicken, fish, fresh (not canned that’s bad) fruits and vegies, whole wheat stuff, yogurt. Not so many cakes and donuts and cookies. Basic common sense for eating, you just need to enforce it. Get all the bad stuff out of the house right away, just toss it or give it away while your still motivated. No alcohol and no smoking  if that applies. Lots of water, 3-4 liters a day, not all at once, but spread it out. Its really easy to down a liter or two while your watching tv or on the computer. Also drink some after you eat the bigger meals of the day, it helps your body pick out the nutrients in food when your food is more spread apart.  Don’t think that sports drinks can replace water, the only time you need to drink them right after a workout, besides that just stick with water. These rules may be hard to adapt to at first so start with cutting out the things you know you can live without.  Then work from there.  Remember these are  perfect eating habits, it can take you a while to work into it.  If you know you can’t live without your one treat a day, don’t fight it by trying to eat something else, just eat it and make sure that’s the only one you cheat on a day.  Otherwise you’ll get depressed and quit.  Another important point is getting the right amount of sleep every night.  You need 8-9 hours of sleep each night for your body to function correctly.  This is an important factor of losing weight.  Set up a routine for yourself and go to bed at about the same time each night.  \nAs for exercise, lots of cardio. Find something you like. If you have never exercised much before, start with walking 30 minutes a day at a brisk pace. Move on to different terrains that include hills and increase the time spent. After a week or two, try jogging the route. No matter what find an activity you enjoy. Walking to jogging is just an example, try hiking, rollerblading, biking. Once you get into a regular routine, if your not happy with the level of difficulty, try signing up with a gym. Spinning, pilates or kickboxing classes are great. It will also introduce you to working with weights. Talk to a trainer for instruction before using any weights. A cheap investment is a balance ball, it works you stomach while your just sitting on it, like at your computer and its great for posture. There are hundreds of exercises you can use it for for your entire body. I can give you some ideas if you want, just email me.
