I am asking for my daughter she is currently only seventeen , and has struggled with weight her whole life. She has tryed everything, now just wondering which diet pill is best to aid her in her quest of a healthy weight. Please do not answer with diet and exercise as the only way to go , i know that people say there are risks and i understand that.

Answer by smart girl
Please do not let your daughter take diet pills. That will be the worst decision. I have tried at least 10 different ones and none of them worked. They just made me very sick and miserable.

If you can afford it then enroll her to a weight watchers class.

Does exercising on a low carb diet like Kimkins affect weight loss results?

by ninahale

Question by Jessica: Does exercising on a low carb diet like Kimkins affect weight loss results?
I haven’t really been following the diet to a tee but only the breakfast part, I’m doing the boot camp part of the diet and I’ve been eating my Activia yogurts and a banana for breakfast because eggs make me sick as well as meat in the morning and I just substitute with those. Well, I do 30 min of cardio on the elliptical, I don’t overwork myself or anything. My weight didn’t come down when I was exervicing but I haven’t exercised for 4 days and I’ve dropped 5 lbs. Is the exercise affecting weight loss or am I in ketosis and it’s starting to do its magic? I’d like to continue exercise if it won’t interfere.

Best answer:

Answer by rubyshatters
Exercise will not slow weight loss, on any diet. It boosts your metabolism and keeps it from slowing down when your diet changes- so it’s very good to do. The 5 lb. weight loss is likely from ketosis, but I must warn you. I tried lowe carb dieting- and after about a month of feeling awful all the time, I discovered it wasn’t worth it. What will work in the long term is doing like you are doing- but do not be afraid to have whole grains, because fiber is important. A diet full of salads, whole grains, fruits, veggies, and lean meat will pave the way to long term weight loss- and your body will feel better for it.

Best diet and exercise routine for stomach fat?

Question by Jayla2131: Best diet and exercise routine for stomach fat?
I have been working out for almost a year now. I do dance, zumba, and a type of “boot camp” class, which consists of mostly lunges, squats, sit-ups, push-ups, etc. I do not follow an extremely strict diet, but I do not have an unhealthy diet either. I do not drink soda, eat red meat, a lot of bread or sweets. I did have 3 children before I started going to the gym, and I am in pretty good shape at the moment. However, even though I am working out I just cannot get rid of the little tummy! Please any advice including exercises or diets are welcome. Thank you.

Answer by Jesse
A diet to get a flat stomach can be highly effective. There are many ways to lose weight specifically in the mid section of the body.
•Eat healthier and cut down junk food, such as replacing sweets and chips with fruits.
•Eat smaller meals a day. To get a flat stomach you should eat many small meals throughout the day. Eat just enough until you feel full; don’t overeat and know which flat-belly foods actually work
•Eating raw foods are to avoid the loss of enzymes that result from cooking food, which also decreases its nutritional value.
•Cardio exercises are best as they will heat up your core temperature and improve circulation, both of which will aid you in acquiring a flat stomach. You should aim for interval cardio training, such as alternating between sprinting and power walking. You can try sprinting for as long as you can. When you become too tired, you should walk. When you feel that you’ve caught your breath, sprint again. Do these alterations for a total of 20 minutes at a time.
•Some strength training exercises are Squats Lunges leg lifts and crunches.

Question by Zainy: Any girls who have taken any diet pill that worked?
Im taking slimfast, have seen minor results like 2-3 pounds which is probably water weight. I have read about alot of people who have had sucess with diet pills. Please reply if you have a SUCESS STORY or know someone who does. I know diet pills are bad..dont reply me and tell me that. You will be wasting your time.

Best answer:

Answer by Faith
You could try the Jenny Crank diet. I know a girl who did and she looked like a skeleton with skin. Very attractive. That was until she lost her kids to Cps, got busted for possession of a controlled substance, spent a year in jail and now her butt looks like the north end of a sounth bound mule since she finally quit using it.
Or you can go to a weight loss specialist MD\clinic and learn the healthy way to loose weight and keep it off and feel better doing it. Its not that pills and fad diets are bad. In the long term they just don’t work.
Yes I know this is not the advice you want but others read the answers so you can just ignore what advice you do not like.

Can I increase food and exercise on hcg diet?

Question by Stefani Hail: Can I increase food and exercise on hcg diet?
I want to workout and tony my body while on hcg. can I just eat 1000 calories instead while working out?

Best answer:

Answer by EddySays
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the Federal Trade Commission issued seven warning letters on Tuesday December 6, 2011 to companies that sell the over-the-counter products, noting they have not been approved by the FDA for weight loss. The drops do not contain hcg hormone but similar synthetic peptide amino acids. This is the first step in terminating the sale of the ineffective drops.

Finally the Food and Drug Administration has taken steps to stop these possibly harmful products.
Anyone that lost weight on the diet protocol only did because they were eating 500 calories a day and in starvation mode. The drops legally cannot contain any real hcg anyway. Most conscientious pharmacies have already pulled them from the shelves and others are selling down.
The side effects of the hcg diet protocol are the side effects of malnutrition. These include headache, hair loss, interruption of menstrual cycles, fatigue, feeling lightheaded, disorientation, stomach pain, nausea, and diarrhea.
Something to think about. One of the side effects of properly using the hcg injections to increase fertility is weight gain. So how can the hormone cause weight loss other than malnutrition?
I know you hate to hear it but a healthy diet and exercise work every time.

How 2 lose weight, nothing works & you are already on strict diet?

Question by ICU2: How 2 lose weight, nothing works & you are already on strict diet?
I need to lose weight- about 50kgs worth-if you work in pounds just know its a hell of a lot.Thing is I dont eat junk food, drink alcohol or over-eat…I have a very restricted diet due to coeliac disease,so am already very restricted on food choices anyway. Dr says just reduce the calories, its calories in versus the calories out, I personally dont believe its always as simple as that. I’ve tried WW,carbohydrate diets (that was a disaster), been to a dietician-nothing seems to shift the weight. Increased my exercise- still didn’t budge.Short of eating lettuce leaves & tomatoes 3 meals a day I’m getting very frustrated. Anyone else had this problem or have an answer? I’d be very grateful. And now I’m reaching that wonderful menopause age for women so I have that to contend with as well!
breakfast- low fat yoghurt & 10 almonds Green tea
11am- chai latte & sometimes a boiled egg
130pm GF bread- advocado,tomato,cheese, sometimes bowl soup, piece fruit green tea
dinner usually stir fry vegies or veggies & fish or once week lamb (I dont eat chicken or beef)
Only drink green tea,no coffee,or drink water. I’m 53.I am physically active at work- but obviously not enough.

How much weight can I expect to lose on the HCG Diet?

Question by Emma-Leigh: How much weight can I expect to lose on the HCG Diet?
I am 5’7 weighing 180 pounds. How much weight can I expect to lose on a 30 day HCG Diet? What about a 45 day one?

Best answer:

Answer by EddySays
The Food and Drug Administration and the Federal Trade Commission issued warning letters in December, 2011 to many companies that sell the over-the-counter products, noting they have not been approved by the FDA for weight loss and false advertising claims. The drops do not contain the actual hcg hormone but similar synthetic amino acids. These peptides are destroyed in the digestive system and are completely worthless.The FDA and FTC have finally taken steps to stop these potentially harmful and scam products.
Anyone that lost weight on the diet protocol only did because they were eating 500 calories a day and in starvation mode. The side effects of the hcg diet protocol are the side effects of malnutrition. These include headache, hair loss, interruption of menstrual cycles, fatigue, feeling lightheaded, disorientation, stomach pain, nausea, and diarrhea.
Common sense tells you this diet is nothing more than starvation. One of the side effects of properly using the hcg injections to increase fertility is weight gain. So how can the hormone cause weight loss?
The doctors exploiting this benign hormone can’t even agree on how it works. Some say it releases stored fat calories into the system. Others say it acts as an appetite suppressant. Neither explanation justifies the weight loss in the individuals taking the oral drops containing no hcg in them that still lost weight.
The mental apparatus occurring here is called “cognitive relativism” where hcg users assert their beliefs to the point where they deny facts, lack of evidence, and true expert opinion.
While there are loads of profiteers, clinics, and doctors with no moral compass promoting this 60 year old ridiculous protocol it is not endorsed or recommended by any medical, dietary, or regulatory organization.
