1. My main problems is the intake of carbs and reduction or cancellation of sweets in my diet. I'm still a teenager so this is very difficult to follow especially if you have other siblings and your whole family could care less about your goal of being healthier in fact they'd try to stop you! well of course i mean me. Not only that but its really hard to limit carbs when your food supply is made of say 60% unhealthy carbs! and i can't continuously ask my parents to go shopping every week to get me fresh veggies or whole grains when i need them. On top of that we don't have much money right now so to save money when food shopping my mom always buys the cheap and easy white bread and simple spaghetti huge bags of rice microwavable waffles the generic frozen pizzas and sugar induced cereals. She tends to also buy food right after work so we never get a say so in what we want. once again on top of THAT im half Hispanic and even though we don't live in my moms country anymore she still cooks like we do. by that i mean rice in almost every meal or something fried, not that i eat anything fried blah! but the rice is hard to resist when she prances with it around on a platter, rarely does she involve any fruit or fresh veggies into the party as her favorite dish is rice beans and chicken. not to mention its hard to go all ancestral i your diet when we live in modern America and one is surrounded by fried greasy fatty sugary carb filled eats and if one does manage to revert to the natural way of fuel it surely tastes bland and boring. How do i overcome this for my own health????
By the way Sunday is my chance to change this cause we're going grocery shopping. Can anyone please give me a list of healthy foods fruits and veggies to buy to get me on the right track???
2. What fruits and veggies do you advise i eat? im not really asking what will help me lose weight, im asking what will get me healthy cause i plan to stick with this diet of fruits veggies water and so on. not on the quick path to one time success but on the journey to prosperous longevity! Sounds cheesy...
3. How much protein should i eat if intend to lose weight while simultaneously toning up? Specifically what kind of protein such as fish or whatever else has protein.
4. When they say burn more than you eat if i plan to it 1217 tomorrow do i have to really burn more than 1217 calories?! if that's the case then whats with all that crap about 30 minutes of exercise a day will help you stay healthy! not that i do 30 minutes or intend to do that minimal amount and expect results from it. I really don't want anyone saying join weight watchers cause im a teenager and don't have a job let alone support from anyone so that would be out of the question.
my intention is to lose 14 or 16 or 20 pounds, whatever weight i look best at but i need a plan that i can follow for the rest of my life.I am at a rut right now in my weight loss!!!! Any help please?!?
You have the perfect attitude to adopt a healthy eating lifestyle and be lean and healthy for life (most people lack this and will always be overweight and unhealthy). It's not going to be easy in your household though, because when you eat bad foods (sugar, white flour products and processed foods) you get cravings for more bad foods (due to the huge insulin spikes they cause which gives you low blood sugar). When you eat 5 healthy balanced (complex carbs, protein and good fats)meals a day, those meals will trickle glucose (blood sugar) into your system and you won't get low blood sugar, therefore you won't get cravings for crappy foods (quick sugar fix). Healthy food doesn't have to taste bland. Oatmeal tastes great if you add fruit, no sugar added syrup, cinnamon, diet yogurt and skim milk. Oatmeal is one of the best fat burning foods out there (as long as you don't shovel the sugar on it). Instead of sour cream on baked potatoes, I whip up 1% cottage cheese with green onion, garlic and spices and it tastes better than sour cream and now you are eating very low fat protein instead of a ton of saturated (bad) fat. You seem to be good at finding the right information, so just eat like bodybuilders eat (they have it down to a science on what foods are healthy, fat burning and muscle building). When you eat right and exercise you will be amazed how fast your body will burn off any extra fat (I lost 45 lbs in 4 months and added muscle, so I probably lost 60 lbs of fat and now I'm ripped) and you will feel GREAT all the time. I did this while having one cheat day a week where I eat what ever and don't worry it won't hurt your progress, it will actually help because when you are on a calorie deficit diet your metabolism will want to slow down and by overeating a bit one day a week it will kick it back into high gear.
You don't have to burn all the calories you eat with exercise, because all your body functions (heat, digestion, pumping blood...) burn most of your calories. A 200 lbs person needs 2000 (10 x body weight in lbs) calories just to be alive (no exercise).
I could right a book here, but all the info you will ever need can be found for free at "Scoobys home bodybuilding". That guy really knows his stuff and he has a wealth of knowledge on his site from nutrition to working out.
Just do the best you can while at home and get serious when you move out in a few years.I am at a rut right now in my weight loss!!!! Any help please?!?
Yes, fat keeps us warm, protected and alive. But too much of a good thing can be, well, bad. If you鈥檙e trying to pare down your pot belly, nibble on these.
Breakfast cereal
By boosting fibre and providing fewer kilojoules from fat than other popular breakfasts (bacon and eggs, anyone?), ready-to-eat cereal can help you fill up 鈥?and slim down. A study from the Journal of the American Dietetic Association found that women who ate cereal were 30 percent less likely to be overweight than those who ate other breakfast foods. To get the most bang for your breakfast buck, choose fibre-rich (aim for five grams per serving), low-fat cereals.
