Weight Loss & Exersize ?

Filed under: weight loss — Tags: , , , , , — Tracy @ 7:02 am

Keep the weight loss questions coming! I liked this one:

Question: so im 5′2 and weigh 147 lbs & i want to lose weight & maybe replce it with muscle i suppose, i have way to much flab on my belly, thighs and the top of my arms how do i sort it? how much exersize do i need? not something silly like half an hour because i dont think that would help.
im a female btw and football isnt a thing id be into but thanks i will keep it in mind :)
Answer: Hey Lisa,

It isn’t as easy as it sounds, I know. The best thing you can do is exercise. Now, you may think "Okay, I’ll throw on some sneakers and go for a jog." That won’t do it. And in fact, you probably aren’t willing to start your fitness journey by displaying it in front of the world, right? If you’re like me, you want to get fit where no one can see you struggle. That’s why I do in-home fitness DVDs. Not like the creepy Richard Simmons kind of videos, though… In fact, if you really want to get fit by January- the BEST advice I can tell you is to order P90X. It’s a 90 day total body transformation that is used by celebrities like Bruno Mars, Bret Favre, Ashton Kutcher, Demi Moore, Pink, and Michelle Obama. Some people lose over 100lbs in just 90 days. And even better, it specially focuses on turning fat into muscle! I would recommend nothing but this. In fact, here, this link will take you straight to information about this: https://extranet.securefreedom.com/MillionDollarBody/csShopping/ShoppingCart_Detail.asp?PriceID=93429&Cat=Fitness%20Program|P90X

Heck, if you are really into this home fitness things, there are a lot of programs you can look into. Go here: www.beachbodycoach.com/bransonp

Also! Look up my fitness page on facebook. It’s called "Time to Transform with Coach Paalyn." I update it with fitness tips, motivation, and advice as often as I can. And I ALWAYS respond to questions and inquiries. I hope this helps you out. Please feel free to message me on facebook or whatnot if you have any questions I can answer!

Could Someone Give Me a Weight Loss Plan for Just a Day That I Can Keep Repeating?

Keep the weight loss questions coming! I liked this one:

Question: I’m female. Twenty-one years old. 5′3". 160 lbs. I want to lose 30 of those pounds. Ok folks..I want to lose weight and love variety. However; I tend to cheat with variety. I’m a routine kind of person. Could someone give me a basic eating and exercise plan that I could live with basically every single day? Sure I’ll tweak it if something becomes way too repetitive or boring. I’ve always been overweight and am someone that needs direction and basically..someone telling me how. Then I’ll take it from there. Thanks!
Answer: Run 1 mile (walk as needed but resume running)
try to build up to do 30 push ups
build up to 50 sit ups
100 squats
20 leg levers
5-10 burpees
2 pull ups
100 jumping jacks
8 count bodybuilders(20)

Will a 10-15 Pound Weight Loss Be Noticeable?

Filed under: weight loss — Tags: , — Tracy @ 7:02 am

A tough weight loss question this week. Let’s dive straight in

Question: I am 140 pounds and 5 ft, and I’m going to try to lose some weight, like 10-15 pounds. I’m not saying it will make me a super model… just curious if it will make a difference at all.
Answer: No, not really. I’m 4′11 and 97 pounds. I used to be 108 pounds but I lost 11 pounds, I still look the same though. Probably a 15 pound weight loss would be a little noticeable. But not 10 or 11.
Good luck :)

Does a Colon Cleanse Cause Weight Loss?

Filed under: weight loss — Tags: , , , — Tracy @ 7:02 am

Well here’s a question I just had to answering straight away:

Question: I know they are used for cleaning out a colon before a colonscopy, but these days people say you can loose weight, or jump start a diet or something like that. Is this true? what have you guys heard?
Answer: Doing a colon cleanse for a medical procedure is necessary and the fluid used is prescribed to keep you from losing necessary components, such as potassium and sodium. Doing it try and lose weight is just plain pointless and possible dangerous.
You may lose a few pounds, mostly water weight, but that is it and it does nothing to "jump start" a diet of any kind.
Put quite simply, its not a good idea unless monitored by a licensed physician. Any fool can do them with the right equipment and I sure wouldn’t trust those people.

Does Drinking Green Tea Help Weight Loss?

Filed under: weight loss — Tags: , , — Tracy @ 7:02 am

This week’s question is as follows:

Question: how many times a day do you drink it
Average how much do you lose with a balanced diet
Answer: Green tea’s weight loss effects have been causing more and more people to start sipping the ancient Japanese brew. But, just how does green tea help you lose weight? And does it really work or is it all just hype? This article gives you the real facts about drinking green tea to lose weight.

Experts vary, but the general consensus seems to be that 3 – 5 cups of green tea per day is optimal. Doing this can help you burn an extra 70 calories per day which amounts to 7 pounds per year. Pretty good for not exercising or cutting calories, right?

Advantages of Drinking Green Tea for Weight Loss:

1) Green tea revs up your metabolism

A study reported on in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, found that green tea extract resulted in a significant increase in energy expenditure (a metabolism ‘boost’).

The researchers also concluded that that over a 24-hour period, green tea extract increases the metabolic rate by 4%. These effects are probably due to the high concentrations of catechin polyphenols found in green tea. These work to help intensify levels of fat oxidation and thermogenesis (the rate at which your body burns calories).

2) Green tea inhibits fat absorption and helps glucose regulation

Experts tell us that the catechins in green tea help to inhibit the movement of glucose into fat cells. Green tea may also act as al glucose regulator. It helps to slow the rise in blood sugar after a meal. This prevents high insulin spikes (lots of insulin promotes fat storage) and the subsequent fat storage.

3) Green tea may help reduce appetite

Scientists at the University of Chicago found that green tea caused rats to lose up to 21 percent of their body weight. Rats injected with a green tea extract lost their appetites and consumed up to 60 percent less food after seven days of daily injections. This may have something to do with the blood sugar regulating effects of green tea.

4) Green tea can help you save calories on your morning brew.

We are a nation hooked on our java. Be it the regular double-cream, double-sugar standard or that mocha, dappa, frappucinno, the calories we ingest just to get our morning caffeine is wreaking havoc on our waistlines.

If you want to save mega-calories in the morning but still get your caffeine fix, try substituting green tea for coffee. Or have a green tea in the afternoon instead of that 700 calorie mocha-chillate dream. You’ll definitely notice the difference in your waistline after a few weeks.

So there are 4 ways that green tea can help you with weight loss… But, how much do you actually have to drink to get these amazing metabolism boosting effects?

However, 3 – 5 cups can be a lot for some people, so you might also want to consider green tea extract, green tea pills or a green tea patch.

Disadvantages of Drinking Green Tea For Weight Loss:

1. Green tea is not a magic bullet

While some people will tell you that green tea is the be-all-end-all for weight loss success, I think the keyword here is balance. You’re not going to eat 5000 calories a day, drink a cup of green tea and make it all go away – it just isn’t going to happen. A healthy diet and increased exercise will go a long way in helping you lose weight and keep it off.

2. Be cautious of the caffeine if you have health problems

For some people that have heart troubles, high blood pressure or stimulant sensitivities, the caffeine in green tea may not be the best idea. If you’re worried about the caffeine from green tea, try taking green tea extract. Most green tea extract is made from decaffeinated green tea so you can still get the weight loss benefits without the caffeine.

If you think the caffeine may be a problem, make sure to consult your doctor before starting green tea for weight loss. Also make sure to consult your doctor before starting green tea if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Bottom Line: Green tea helps you with weight loss by boosting your metabolic rate, regulating your blood sugar, suppressing your appetite and giving you something else besides that high calorie, high sugar coffee beverage to drink in the morning.

While it’s not the magic bullet, it can definitely give you a boost in weight loss and in your overall health!

If I Take HCG Drops for Weight Loss, Will I Test Positive on Pregnancy Tests?

Filed under: weight loss — Tags: , , , , — Tracy @ 7:03 am

Another weight loss question has come in this week. Let’s tackle it straight away:

Question: Also, will it make me skip my periods, and does it have adverse side effects with birth control?
Answer: It will have no effect on your birth controll pill or make you test positive on pregnancy tests. You have less than a 1 in 10MILLION chance of having just one molecule of HCG in your 2oz bottle.

Save your money. Plain and simple, the HCG diet program is a SCAM. It’s a 30X homeopathic product. That 30X means there is one part of HCG in 1 x 10^30 parts of water. Yes, that’s a 1 with 30 zeros after it. Some products are as dilute as 60X, a 1 with 60 zeros after it.

You lose weight because of an anorexic diet, you’re limited to 500 calories a day. THAT’S how you lose the weight, not by taking drops of water mixed into a glass of water or under your tongue.

Just so you know 10^30 drops of water equate to over 16 TRILLION cubic miles of water. In all those cubic miles of water, there would be just 1 drop of HCG.

What's a Good Weight Loss Goal for Me?

Filed under: weight loss — Tags: , — Tracy @ 7:02 am

A weight loss question that should definitely interest you all this week

Question: I am 24, I weigh 134, and I am 5′4"

Is 1 lb a week weight loss goal too much or too little? how about 1 and a half?

Answer: It takes 3500 calories burned to lose a pound.
3500 calories divided by 7 days= 500 extra calories you have to burn a day to lose a pound in a week.
So ideally you should only lose a pound to two pounds a week. That way you won’t be hurting your body by drastically reducing your calories. Or, you could just slowly decrease your calories, little by little.
