I really want to lose 15 pounds before winter break which is in a month. I DO NOT WANT DIET PILLS AT ALL. Please hellp??
All you need to lose weight is a good healthy diet - lots of fruit and veg, and exercise. Try jogging, running, sit ups, take up a sport.
It takes time and motivation, there is no quick fix. Good luck 
Yeah so I really want to lose 15-20 pounds by March30. Any Ideas? Thanks for any help you guys are to me.
Well, you are probably going to want to alter your diet to just veggies (not literally, but the closer you are, the fewer calories you are actually consuming while still eating healthy), and try to burn 600 or so calories a day more than you normally would. It’s generally considered that 1 mile of walking or running is 100 calories, swimming and skiing are probably more for the same amount of time as running. I played a lot of DDR, which is also very effective.
Figure 2000 calories a day to maintain weight, and you are looking to lose 52500 calories in 70 days. That’s 750 calories a day, so I overshot. So any combination of less calories eaten plus exercise that equals 750 calories a day will work out just dandily.
I am a female and im 12 going on 13. I am 5′ 7 and I weigh 140. I want to lose 15 pounds in a month before school starts. I’m moving back to a school I used to go to and I want to look completely different. I can’t go to the gym and it rains alot.
if you don’t mind running in the rain, jogging is a great idea.
One thing that works for me is: before I eat, I drink a large glass of water, then if I’m still hungry, I won’t eat as much as I would have.
also, fyi:
1 pound = 3500 calories.
If you burn more calories than you eat, you will lose weight.
ie, if you eat 2000 calories per day and burn 2500, you will lose 1 pound every week.
the average person burns 1500-2000 calories per day, just being alive.
powerwalking can burn 200-500 calories per hour.
exercise bike can burn 200-600 calories per hour.
swimming can burn 100-800 calories per hour.
jogging/running can burn 300-1200 calories per hour.
*********VERY IMPORTANT************
when trying to lose weight, very important to drink lots and lots of water ! ! !
You should drink at least 10 glasses per day, like 1 glass every hour !
This helps your body get rid of the fat when you are burning calories.
I need and want to lose 15 pounds in 2 month but the healthy way.
what would be some great tips and tricks, and maybe some websites.
I would really appreciate the help.
Hey, i’m also trying to lose 15 lbs in two months 
things that i have been doing aree: i got an account (free) on medhelp.com and you can make a weight loss tracker. You put in your goal weight and start date and end date then it gives you a graph where it shows you what weight you need to be on which days to reach ur goal…sorry if thats confusing It really helps alot.. i always say to myself to stay under the red line
You can also join communities like spark people where theres alot of motivation from others.
For my workouts: I’ve been doing HIP HOP ABS and its amazing ! i lost 4 lbs this week (: the vids are on youtube (crappy i know, but at least they’re free [:) I’ve also done the "slim in 6" vids but i find them quite boring. And somedays, if i’ve worked out alot that week, i just put in my ipod and dance… i know i sound like a loser but you really do get a good cardio workout.
For my diet: Really the only changes i’ve made are i stopped eating junk food and replaced my snack cravings with fruit or something of that nature. Its actually very easy. Just think to yourself "is what i’m putting in my mouth right now going to get me closer or further away from my goal?" And also before you eat junk think to your self "is it worth it?" if its not, then put it back. Also, i cut out all beverages except water.
All this is working for me and i hope i helped you out too

My dog is 15 pounds overweight, and we never walk her because we have an absolutely full schedule. So I’m starting to wake up early to walk her, and walk her at night as well. How long should these walks be, each, and any other tips for helping her lose weight? Serious answers, please, and thanks!
I tell people that over weight dogs need less food and more exercise just like over weight people. Walking her and playing with her will help but you also need to decrease the amount of food that you’re feeding her. Do not free feed but feed her a measured amount of food twice daily. Do not use the recommended amount on the back of the dog food bag as the dog food companies usually recommend over feeding and people have a tendency to feed the amount to what the dog weighs right now instead of what they should weigh. Feed one cup of a good quality food per 20 pounds of weight of what the dog should weigh. Sometimes you have to decrease the amount further depending on the dog. The amount includes all food items including treats and table food. Anything that goes into the dog’s mouth must be measured and included in the total amount fed. If you find that she still is not losing weight after several months take her to your vet and have her thyroid tested. A hypothyroid dog will not lose weight no matter what you do. You need to weigh your dog every two weeks so that you can adjust the feeding and exercise accordingly. You want the weight loss to be slow. Since you did not give me the size of dog I cannot give you a recommendation as to weekly weight loss. 15 pounds off of a 30 pound dog would be different than 15 pounds off of an 85 pound dog.
I am 5 ft 3 in and I weigh 124 pounds. This is healthy weight but I want to tone down a little. If not 15 pounds then at least 10 pounds.
My question is how do I do that?
I have very little time to exercise but i guess i could manage. Most of my weight is fat so i seriously have to lose some of it. And yes, i do NOT have an eating disorder.
Thanks a lot! if you have any tips that would be awesome.
I found this on this website. There are more tips and info.
1. If what you are eating has less than 1 carb, count it as 1 carb just to be sure.
2. Totally avoid caffine at least for the first two weeks on the program.
3. Drink a MINIMUM of 8 glasses of plain water or seltzer daily.
4. Don’t weigh yourself more than once a week
5. Take starting measurements as well as weight - sometimes you’ll lose inches before pounds
6. Avoid any type of "low carb" sweetener for the first two weeks
7. Don’t compare your loss to someone else’s - this is a YMMV thing (your milage may vary)
8. Stalls are common around the third week so don’t panic
9. If you follow your plan to the T and don’t lose, consider Candida as a possibility and avoid vinegar, cheese, mushrooms and any other fermented food
10. Have bloodwork done before starting so you have a comparison
11. Cholesterol can be elevated in the first few weeks til your body adjusts - make sure your doctor knows that you’re doing low carb and when you started
12. Don’t blame the diet if you don’t read your plan book — blame the diet if you don’t read the labels — Don’t blame the diet if you don’t follow the diet
Ok so where I live, it’s almost always raining. When it’s not raining, I go out for a 20 minutes walk everyday. But now since it’s almost winter, it’s going to start snowing everyday. So I won’t be able to go for a walk. So how can I lose 15 pounds over the winter?
Thanks!

I work out every day for about 20-25 minutes on the treadmill running and walking and do squats,push ups,sit ups and all tht. I also do about 2 miles of running for p.e two times a week. If i keep this routine going when do u think i’ll lose 15 pounds? Pls and thx!
well i dont no but this is what i would do
–always eat breakfast, it is proven people who eat breakfast actually weigh less.
–eat small but frequent meals.
–eat every 2 hours 4-5 times a day.
–drink 10-12 cups of water a day.
–eat 5-8 servings of fruit or vegetables a day.
–increase your protein intake eat/drink stuff that has a lot of protein bcuz it builds muscles and muscles burn fat i would say at least drink three cups of milk a day.
most of these things will increase your metabolism and the workouts make u lose even more!!
I wouldn’t stop eating, I’d be eating 1200 calories a day. And I’d be running 2-3 miles a day and pilates a few times a week. Is it possible to lose 15 pounds in 5 weeks?
Yeah it’s very possible. Just make sure youre getting the right nutrition. You could probably go with 1400-1500 calories and still see results because of your workout routine. If youre super restricting your diet but pushing yourself hard, you body will go into survival mode and start eating away at itself(muscles,fat etcc..) and youll run the risk of putting weight back of fast too. If youre already fairly thin, weight loss will be slower. The heavier you are the more calories you burn
