If you are loosing inches but not pounds, it is because you are putting on muscle as you loose fat.  Muscle is denser than fat, so you can be smaller but still the same weight.  \n\nYou will get to a point where you have built up your muscles to the maximum for the amount of exercise you are doing.  When that happens, you will begin loosing inches _and_ weight.\n\nStick with it!  So long as you are loosing weight OR inches, you are headed in the right direction.\n\nHere are my usual diet spiel and links.  Be sure to check out exrx.net and Jack LaLanne.\n\nTo loose weight: eat a balanced diet, eat less, and exercise more.\nTo keep the weight off, you should loose about 1 pound per week.\n\nHow much should you weigh?: http://www.dietitian.com/ibw/ibw.html\nhttp://www.consumer.gov/weightloss/setgoals.htm\nhttp://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/weightcontrol.html\nhttp://win.niddk.nih.gov/publications/index.htm\nhttp://www.mypyramid.gov/\nhttp://www.exrx.net/\nhttp://www.jacklalanne.com/biograph.html

Its a bit of a tall order.  You might lose 6lb but not more...and you would need to exercise to lose that much.  Eat small portion, no fatty or sugary foods, fill up with fruit and raw veggies.  Keep meat to very small portions.

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.

As for losing weight you should combine diet and exercise.  Your exact diet and exercise regimen depends on how much weight you want to lose.  If you are trying to lose a few pounds and tone up, this is what I did.  I tried to get between 1200 and 1400 calories a day. \nBreakfast: Cereal or oatmeal or half a whole wheat bagel with reduced fat cream cheese.\nLunch: I ate lots of soup or sandwichs on whole wheat, no cheese, or lean cuisine\nSnack: I ate different things but always tried to keep the snack 100 calories or less.  Try fruit or veggies or  various snack packs that are around 100 calories.\nDinner: I ate anything I wanted.  I didn't eat 2nd or 3rd helpings but I ate pizza, spaghetti, burgers. \nNo fast food.  Maybe once a month as a treat if you have to have it.  If you have to eat dessert, like a piece of cake, share it, but don't eat the whole thing.  Unless it is a treat for yourself for all your hard work.  Remember you can't treat yourself everyday!  \nAs for exercise I run, do kick boxing, and ab workouts every other day during the week and hardly ever on the weekend.  I lost 10lbs and shaped up my abs and buns.

Hey, we are on the same page. I'm 5'3'' and I weigh 125. I used to weigh 107...so I need to lose 18 pounds. I know this sounds crazy.....but I lose weight by eating one meal a day. I'll snack on fruits and veggies only. Limit your calorie intake. Your body burns about 10 times your weight. So right now, your burn about 1,140 calories in a day. There are 3000 calories in a pound. Slowly cut back your intake. I lost 20 pounds in 2 1/2 months doing this. Try eating about 500 calories a day. then youll burn about 600 calories a day + whatever excercise you do. But always snack on healthy foods throughout the day or else your metabolism with slow. NO SODAS.FRIES.CANDY! limit your bread and pasta/rice intake as well.

the most important thing is exercising and eating right. dont bother trying to count calories, its a waste of time. just go for the more healthy foods, eat lots of veggies and fruits. but make sure you are exercising reguarly, it doesnt have to be every day, but it should be 3-5 times a week, maybe hit the gym or run or lift and do some sit ups a couple times of week. keep on playing basketball, maybe do it more often or for longer periods of time. just keep doing what your doing and you'll be down to 175 in no time!

id suggest walking more than a mile, because that wont do too much... if youre really serious about losing weight, then walk a little bit more than a mile, but also watch what you eat.

it depends on your body mass index. and how tall are you? 127 pounds is not alot. cut down on your carbs, sugars, and try to get them from natural resources such as uncanned fruit and vegetables. also increase the intake of your dairy products and fiber and if you are healthy try to work out at least 20 minutes a day. Make this a habit!

You can't lose it quickly. You must gradually change your eating habits and excercise habbits. give your body some time to adjust to the changes and you will lose the weight much faster than you normally would lose it. Actually your body burns 12 calories per pound of body weight for each day. So to figure out how many calories you need for each day you must multiply your weight by 12. Choose wisely the foods you eat and how much you do eat. If you do want to loose weight just simply eat less that the amount of calories you need in a day. Many people think you must excercise to lose weight but you cannot lose weight by just simply excercising. You must have a well balanced diet and eat less than the amount of calories you need in a day to lose weight. While you cannot lose weight by excercising alone it does speed up the process while adding more muscle mass because the muscles burn more calories.

I've lost fifty pounds.\n\nYour body weight is lean-muscle-mass, fat, and water.  When you first start on a diet, you often lose a lot of water weight quickly, especially if you were not eating healthily before.  Exercise may cause you to replace fat with lean-muscle mass, which will make you thinner and healthier (and increase your metabolism), but may increase your weight.  Women also have up-and-down bloating from their menstrual cycle, so you can be losing fat from dieting and exercise without losing weight.  Concentrate less on the day-to-day number on the scale, and more on ensuring that you're eating healthy and exercising, and the number on the scale will eventually catch up with what you're doing.\n\nA pound of fat equals 3500 calories. Weight gain or loss is equal to calories consumed minus calories expended. Simply put, short of amputation or death, diet and exercise is the only way to lose weight. Keep track of what it is you're eating. Look up your Basal Metabolic Rate on an online calculator; if you limit yourself to your BMR - 500 calories/day, you'll lose a pound a week that way -- but make sure you're getting your minimum amount of protein, because protein insufficiency can be very dangerous to your health and make it harder to lose weight. It's easier to cut back on calories if you're eating filling foods that are high in volume (e.g., vegetables and fruits and water-based soups), substituting high-fiber complex carbs for sugar and simple carbs, and drinking lots of non-caloric beverages.\n\nwww.fitday.com might be a useful site for you; it's free and allows you to track your diet and exercise.

Eat a BALANCED diet (don't starve yourself, and know that it's alright to occasionally indulge) and excercise regularily (make it fun, go for a walk, take the stairs instead of escalators) are the best ways to lose weight.

The best answer to weight loss is something that you (and almost all of America) do not want to hear; The best way to lose wieght is to simply excercise, I'm not try to be rude and you may excercise already. However a key part is knowing whether or not you are healthy. If you are healthy and merely trying to lose weight for apperance then you are hurting your body. Your body know what it wants, trust it from time to time and you may just realize that it knows best when it comes to food. If you are hungry eat, that is the way it is meant to be. Now there are exceptions to the rule like there is with anything, people that overeat and still don't fill satisifed have a genuine problem that they need to consult their doctor about. Unless you are one of these people then I would suggest eating regularly and excercising, it's the best thing you can do to be healthy.

Hey Dale Im in the same predicament I am 260 and Im only 5'8 so I need to loose about 120 pounds.  Now tomorrow I am going to begin with my diet which includes counting calories under 1200 a day but you just need to make sure you eat three healthy meals a day and dont waste them with stupid stuff like sweets or eating fast food. I dont know how much exercise you get a week but try to get some walking, jogging and if possible about 15 minutes of aerobics every other day.  Its good that you quit the soda now make sure drinking lots of water....Good luck maybe we can motivate each other Richtorres_2000 IM

start slowly try walking at a fast pace every morning and night for ATLEAST 10 mins  on your treadmill  eat small meals throughout the day so you wont feel as hungry throw aawy all junk and sweet foods ban soda and sugary juices  drink water and milk once you get into a good rythm with ure walking go faster maybe add some strenght training just make sure everything u do is gradual not bam all at once if your really over weight your body wont take a lot of exercise at once and u wont want to exercise ever again after that also do u have a dog? u could walk ure dog. dont take elevators take the stairs. drink lots and lots of water take low calorie snacks such as a sandwich bag with some carrots in it with you when you go places so that if you feel hungry you can snack on carrots rather then buy some chips. and a big thing thats very important when eating is portion control ure meat should only be the size of a deck of cards read all the labels on all your food see where your calories are coming from hmmm what else can i tell u ummmm avoid being in the kitchen if your in the kitchen and bored you`ll snack go outside get fresh air i dont think i mentioned this before but weight training going to the gym and lifting some weights is really important but if u cant do that or its to expensive just go to walmart and buy some weights u can use at home just those hand ones i think there called free weights im not sure but dont start weight lifting til you have a good routine set in your excercise and dont skip workouts force yourself to do them picture the body ure working towards in your mind  and be realistic weight loss takes time 100 pounds will take like a year GOOD LUCK HOPE THIS HELPS
