How do you lose weight and how long do you diet before you see the wight loss?

Keep it up and I'm sure the pounds will come off. Muscle mass (what you gain from working out) weighs more than fat, but also burns more calories than fat (meaning that initially you may gain muscle weight, but it will start burning off your extra weight soon). So keep your head held up high and keep doing a good job! Otherwise what you could also do is step up your workout a little bit - do an hour or 1 1/2 hours instead of 45 minutes, and make sure you switch up which machines you use from time to time! This keeps you from plateau-ing.

At any rate, you should know that losing weight is NOT a race and you should work at your own pace. Enough persistance and effort, and you WILL lose weight - it's just a matter of time. So be patient and keep up the good work!

Try taking white sugar completely out of your diet. And then when you eat meals do not mix your carbs, fats, and fruits together.

For example: If you want to have a sandwhich you can't have meat on it. So keep those three things seperated in your meals.

Look up Suzanne Somers she has alot of wonderful recipes, even great deserts that you can make that don't have sugar and can go with your meals.

I've been on this diet and within the first week I lost 5 1bs. So it does work. Sugar is actually the biggest contributer to fat lining around the stomach area and unless you cut it out of your diet completely, working out won't do anything to get it away.

Good luck, I hope this helped.

i think there is nothing more important that your health. it is a good thing to have a good appetite, why force yourself to do so frustrating thing in order to lost several pounds. if you want to make yourself have a good shape,you can take part in some PE sports in your spare time. Taking healthy methods to keep good shape will make no hart to your health.

There are many options for helping you attain your weightloss goal. I will list a few that I have either heard of or tried personally.

1.) Salads with nothing but a vinegarette dressing...no extras like cheese or things like that.

2.) Egg diets work.

3.) The Master Cleanse Diet

Another thing to remember is that when you are dieting and exercising that you are losing weight but in turn you are gaining muscle and toning, so your weight may not change a whole lot.

Hi Zzyw.. just relax and don't worry about the pounds. Don't worry about 'dieting' and just eat healthy... watch your portions, and get enough calories.. you can go online and check how many calories you should have to lose weight by your BMI.. if you eat too few calories you won't lose weight, because your body will think it is in starvation mode, and the body will hang on to every pound. Eat right.. eat smart.. and keep moving and you will lose weight.. I'd not watch the scale so much.. if your clothes are fitting looser, you are losing,even if the scale stays the same..

Plus, if you are at the gym a lot, you could be building muscle. If you are replacing muscle faster than your are losing fat, you will gain or stay the same, yet you will lose inches because fat is bulkier than muscle of the same weight.

Depending on your size and whatnot you don't need to worry about not eating carbs or not eating protein you need to focus on calories www.buddyslim.com is a great free site that you can go on and see how many calories based on your weight, height, daily activity you burn everyday. To lost 1lb a week reduce that by roughly 500 unless your going to be working out then you can track that and make changes accordingly. It takes time to see the progress because weight weight adds to all this based on period and salt intake. This site also has a FANTASTIC support team. I've lost about 34lbs since I began in January. Slow but continuous. You can do it girl! Do NOT believe fad diets they might work as a quick fix but don't always keep it off

It's not just a matter of not eating rice. Cut out all carbs...I know it's a long process but cut out bread, pasta, potatoes ect. Go on a high (and I mean high) protien diet. When I started I weighed 95kgs, for that weight I had to have 80grams of protien a day & less than 2000kj a day. Within the 1st week of this diet I lost 5kgs. Not a lot but enough that people could tell the difference. I don't exercise much, not at all at a gym (I find I can do the same stuff at home) and the weight keeps coming off....for 2 months now I have been having protien shakes, protien bars (all with very low carbs) and pretty much nothing else. I take vitiman tablets to compensate for the lack of vitamins I am getting & every now & then I will make a soup that has nothing but celery(with the leaves), string beans, carrots & a bit of pepper for taste. I can no longer fit into my old clothes, & I have just had to buy more smaller ones.
