Alright..i’m 13. I weigh about 13 maybe even 140. I don’t have a scale yet.
I don’t look that fat but man do I feel it.
I want to lose atleast 15 pounds in 2 weeks.
It’s gonna ba hard but I can work at it..
How many exercises should I do for each thing each day?
I belly dance, like a hour a day, does that help? and how the hell do i get rid of these lovehandles.

Hy, I’m Sophie, belly dancer.

I’m glad that you do belly dance. You must be familiar with the routine rythm 8, with that you can get rid of those lovehandles. It worked for me.
If you’re interested, what other belly dance routines can shape your body, visit my website.

ps. Recently I’ve posted a new article about belly dance costume trends for 2012.

I’m one of the five REALLY smart students in my grade but only two of the five are fit and smart. I’m not on of those two. I want to be able to also be fit but I am chubby and I weigh about 105pounds sorry for not knowing. I’ve been exercising since last Sunday for about 1 hour and 30-40 mins. I eat as healthy as I can. I still have 2 months and a week until school starts. I have belly fat and….man boobs ( not big but visible). Can I lose fat and maybe get fit within the next two months for 7th grade?

2. Things
Willpower & Wont power
Wont eat Junk food
Wont drink soda’s
Will Exercise everyday

Actually that should read ‘older men"

I’m 41 and extremely out of shape. Doctor says I fall into morbidly obese; What a horrible description!

If I’m morbidly obese what do they call the people I see who are 2 and 3 times my size???

Anyway … back to the question at hand. I need to target belly fat specifically. Everything I read online either states that doing conventional crunches and sit-ups may actually increase my waist size due to the fat over the muscle or they want me to PAY them for some sort of "secret" exercise/diet that can target the fat and trim my waist. That and sit-ups really kill my bad back and makes it worse than it is normally.

Co-worker suggested that plain old walking would suffice. I tried walking but saw no results after a few months. The weather turned cold and I stopped. If anyone thinks it will still help I guess I’ll start it up again.

Can anyone who has had experience reducing their belly fat please chime in and share the "secret"

Thanks.

And ,yes, my New Years resolution is to lose weight.

Happy New Year every one!!

No exercise can target stored fat loss in a specific area. Fat reduction occurs throughout the body. Most of the initial reduction occurs in the abdominal cavity and isn’t even visible. We can only target increasing size of particular muscle or muscle groups.
80% of weight loss is diet.
You can eat a healthy diet and lose weight.
You can eat a healthy diet and exercise and lose more weight.
You can exercise and eat a poor diet and not lose and even gain weight.
A good healthy diet high in fiber, lean meats, eggs, complex carbohydrates, whole grains, antioxidant foods, healthy beverages and low in added sugar and salt help people lose weight, lower cholesterol, increase energy, improve brain function, lower blood pressure, reduce cancer risk and have a more positive lifestyle!
You need to eat a lot more food and a lot more fiber!
Diets that exclude foods from any food group are fad diets and do not lead to permanent weight loss or solve any other health issues.
First, try to kick your fiber intake to 40 grams of both soluble and insoluble fiber.
Whatever you do, get your fiber from your food, not from a jar.
Fruits and vegetables have good fiber in them. A high fiber diet increases the metabolism.
Try a breakfast cereal with at least 20% of recommended daily allowance of fiber in it. They are usually low in sugar so there is a double benefit. Blueberries or raspberries on top add more fiber and antioxidants. But fresh or frozen, not the kind in syrup.
Raw nuts are a great source of fiber, healthy fats, and antioxidants. Avocados are the best.
Lots of beans, peas, and grains are high fiber. Whole grain breads. Fiber kicks up the metabolism so you actually burn more calories. These foods will give you more gas in the beginning but if eaten daily, the bacteria in the digestive tract will elevate lowering the gas output.
This will get you on the path for a healthy daily bowel movement. This helps clean the system and aids healthy digestion.
I know it goes against everything you’ve heard but eating lots of the right foods will actually help you lose weight!
Next, take an age appropriate basic daily multivitamin. Don’t look at your multivitamin as nutrition but more as an insurance policy. Think of it as filling in the gaps in your daily diet as opposed to a primary source of nutrients.
Last, you have to drink lots of water to be healthy. But you can disguise it. Fill your glass all the way full with ice before pouring low sugar beverages. Try iced green tea with a splash of orange juice in it for sweet. More antioxidants. Add lemon juice to water for flavor. Slice up a cucumber and float it in pitcher of water. Gives it salty fresh taste. But you must drink up to 100 oz of water daily to help your body get rid of waste and the natural toxins.
You must combine a healthy diet with exercise to multiply the benefit. Whether an hour a day in the weight room or just a 30 minute brisk walk every day, the added benefit of a regular exercise program really do increase and accelerate healthy weight loss.

I lost 30 pounds in 5 months by spending my money at the grocery and gym and have kept it off for two years now. 3% of people that attempt weight loss succeed and keep it off for two years. It is not easy. It is a lifestyle change.
Good luck and good health.
