Are you concerned about your weight?

yes i've got your point, you still eat your favorite food but you reduce the quantity, i think it's the best way, maybe you should arrange food menu for your consumption

Hi girl... "I am not going to not eat favorite food".. So, you see what i mean?.. Don't avoid it.. Just eat but don't eat too much.. The first point you must do is sport.. Ok.. hehehehe..

Hahaha.. Yes, that's my point.. Don't forget to sport.. Few days ago, I saw Oprah show.. The show talk about health.. What a show.. I like it.. So, if you wanna know what Dr. Oz and Oprah talk about, visit oprah website.. hehehe..

It is a great thing if you can easily reduce the body weight. Many people can't do that. I have heard that it is difficult to reduce body weight than increasing it. I have a flexible body too. Now, I have decided to walk for 40 minutes a day and reduce 1/4 th of the food I eat. I am waiting for the results. Thanks for the response.

well i didn't finish reading ur question because it was kinda long, but i understand ur need of help. first of all, the fact that your Puerto Rican doesn't mean u have to be over weigthed, im Puerto Rican too and im skinny, its not on the blood either, and the fact that ur family is overweighted too doesn't mean that makes u one just bcuz of that, unless ur family teached u since little to eat the same things, then we have a fact. theres a fact, its a little overweight, altough sorry to put it this way, but this isnt the right place to come, every one has somewhere else to go other than yahoo answers, you can speak with a nutricionist. as u said, it is kinda unhealthy, i suggest u go to a nutricionist and get a proper diet wich will involve eating a certain food and making a certain daily excersise. if u wana loose weight to a healthy number, u gota work it, and it will involve u wont eat the same things u have always eat. i suggest u go to a nutricionist and get a diet, if they tell u to excersise u do it, dont give up cuz i know its hard, u keep trying and ull get succes, dont give up.

Sure. Remember to keep it up. Hope you reach your goal in the future :D

I also have an issue with eating. I live in a hostel and here we have a wonderful cook. I just keep eating because I like the taste of the food and it is provided unlimited. I can't control myself from doing that. I also eat a lot when I am tensed or worried about something. Thanks for the response both of you.

Yes I often worried about my weight. I easily gain weight for the past 3 years I gained so much weight. I observed everytime I lose weight I usually gain weight after and usually it is much that what I lost. It is my frustration for years now how to get back to my weight 3 years ago. I tried to exercise 4 times a week but my problem is everytime I'm tired I'm tend to overeat.

I am happy to hear that you are jogging daily. Keep doing it because 20 kilograms is a big deal and it is high time to work on your weight. I was overweight by 2.5 kilograms when I started this discussion, but by walking and exercising (not regularly, because I am lazy) I was able to get down it by 1 kilogram. Last weekend I checked my weight and I am so happy to find that it got reduced by 1.5 Kg. Thanks for the response.

Well, 5 kgs is not big deal and trust me, reduce intake of sugar, it will help u a lot drink 2 glasses of warm water with some honey in it and sure dont forget to add one spoon of lemon juice in it. and instead of tea, try to drink 3 cups of green tea without sugar. And the best exercise for stomach is to lay back , stetch and pull ur legs, it will help u a lot Take care

My weight was always between 55-60 kilograms for the last one year. I was at sixty for the last five months and I was proud that I could maintain it. Two months ago I moved to a hostel and the food is very good here.So, I forgot my limits and started eating a lot which resulted in putting on weight. Now, I am 62.5 Kgs. I am supposed to have only 57.5 kilograms according to my hieght. I really need to work seriously to cut down my weight. Thanks for the response. Do you know any exercises to flatten tummy?

I wish I knew what to do! lol I can exercise 3-4x per week, eat healthy and still not lose a lousy pound... getting very frustrating. I hear about all these "diet pills" and such, but most of them always seem to end up with long-term health issues too so I really am at a loss. I can't afford to hire a nutritionist or personal trainer so I'm just doing the best I can.

What do you do to get hte metabolism back? Please share your tips and tricks with me. I am in late twenties and now a days I am walking a lot and doing exercise to reduce my tummy. I think it works out pretty fine and I can reliaze the difference. The problem is I am lazy to do exercise continuously. I will quit once in a while and restart it. Thanks for the response.

It is not heatly to skip a meal. I used to skip breakfast and later came to know that it is dangerous and stopped doing it. The best thing is to reduce the amount of the meal. That is what I am doing now. I am lazy to do sports. Now, I decided to walk forty minutes per day. Let me try this for one month and see the difference. Thanks for the response.

You are lucky to have a body like that. It is good to be in normal weight. My body is a different type. I will put on weight if I eat a lot for a week, but at the same time if I control my food for a week, it will come down. My best friend Sheena has a problem with her weight. She is very thin and skinny. She wants to put on weight. She is eating a lot to put on weight, but there is no result. Her father also has the same thin body. I think it is heriditary factor also. Thanks for the response.

I am concern about my weight. But if you think you want to loose your weight you can.Just try once.

I think it is better to be under weight than be over weight. My friend Asha is under weight and wants put on weight. She had dates and honey for some time and it worked out well. You an also try having food with lots of nutrients than eating too much of daily routine food. Thanks for the response.

22 kgs in 6 months? I can't believe this my friend. Tomorrow onwards I decided to get up early and do exercise. I will tell my room mate wake me up at 7 am to do exercise. As a part of my procedure to exercise today onwards I started walking for around 40 minutes a day. I am waiting to see the change. Thanks for the response.

Usually it is the other way happens in most of the cases. People will put on weight once they give birth to baby. I have seen many women like that. They also get big tummies after delivery. Your case is different. Anyway, it is good that you have a good body now and a good husband who doesn't care much about it. Most of the husband's care a lot about this issue. Thanks for the response.

What do you mean by Apple's approach? Eat an apple everyday. You response made me to think about having an apple everyday for breakfast and skip heavy brakfast. Will it work? I also have to do soem exercises to reduce my tummy. It is nice to hear that you have a good body. Thanks for the response.

I am also average weight. I am only four kilograms more than the weight which I am supposed to have accoring to my weight, but I am concerned about that. I need to exercise more at this point of time, otherwise it will keep on increasing and reach a point, where I wont' be able to work on it and reduce it easily. Thanks for the response.

I am sorry Divkris. It is my dream to have an appealing body like girls in movies. I want to exercise and walk daily, but I am lazy to walk since I have free trasportation arranged by my hostel. I am also lazy to get up early and exercise. I think it is high time for me to start working on it because my husband is coming to meet me on December. I don't want to give him a shock. Thanks for the response.

I agree that the shape of the body is important that the weight. It is a fact that you won't be able to control teh shape once you put on a lot of weight. It is a hurdle for me to reduce my tummy. I often dream about having a flat tummy when I see girls in movies. Thanksf or the response.
