still eating right, can I still lose wait if I dont lose/exercise off more calories than I actually eat/take in? Or do I need to work off more calories than I eat to lose weight?

 

Don't eat so much...

 

Where else would the calories go?

It's easy to burn calories just by doing weight lifting! The advantage of weights is that they increase your metabolism and don't leave you as hungry as just doing cardio.

 

eat smaller meals more frequently, and you'll be more likely to lose weight. But yeah, what do you think happens if you don't burn off your intake?!?

 

the average joe eating LESS THAN 2000 will lose weight. no exercise required.

evaluate your average day and see if its significantly LESS THAN 2000 calories.

 

what you need to do is just burn more then what you take in. But you still need to eat. 3 Normal size meals a day or 5-6 small meal a day.

 

simple answer, no. To lose weight (fat that is) you need to burn off more calories then you take in, and I believe the "magic" number is somewhere around 3500 calories burn off a pound of fat. Well no wait actually thats a trick question, because if you become really lazy, but take in the same amount of calories you burn a day doing noting, you will lose weight, but it'll all be muscle.

Losing weight is easy: eat less food but more often during the day, eat a healthy balanced diet, and exercise doing both cardio and weight training.

 

what are ur opinions on hydroxycut? my buddy used it and it sure helped him alot.

 

How long ago did he use it? Hydroxycut previously contained ephedra. The FDA banned the sale of dietary supplements containing ephedrine alkaloids on April 12, 2004. The new formula is probably garbage for weight loss.. but won't give you a heart attack.

 

Yeah, without the ephedra it is worthless. Xenical will be going over the counter soon. It will be called Alli, previously called Orlistat. It is a "fat blocker" and will also absorb vitamins A, D, E, and K (take a multivitamin); however, it is the only safe and effective over the counter solution for weight loss. Herbals like heartleaf and bitter orange should be avoided because they will give you the same complications as ephedra. If the weight problem is serious enough, see your physician to get on prescription adipex or meridia.
