I want to lose 20 pounds what is the best way with out Surgery .?!
Question: I'm heading down that road too. So far I've lost over 10lbs. I exercise for 4 days a week. Most of this is just crunches, reverse crunches, squats, pilates (I'm not sure if I spelled that correctly. But the little ballerina move ya know), stretches, and I do various exercises with my hand weights (2lb, for toning my arms). And I try to dance to my favorite up beats songs at least once a week for 30 minutes and I take 30 minute walks outside now that it's getting warmer. Or if I'm not able to walk ate. And I watch my calories. I try to stick to at least 1200 (the lowest amount you can have without heading into starvation mode) although it's perfectly fine if I go over just as long as I'm eating healthy foods. I try to mix it up some. Like I make sure I get at least 1,500 cal. twice a week and to try a new exercise or add more reps of the ones I'm already doing. Try not to let your body get into a rut or you won't lose weight and remember when you're exercising to maintain a good breathing rhythm.
Good Luck.
***EDIT** I forgot to add earlier that you should drink a lot of water. Water is supposed to be the key to losing weight and I've heard, although I don't know if it's true, that it speeds up the metabolism.

To lose weight (fat), include more fiberous slow digesting carbs, as opp to the
fast ones, no white breads, fast foods, ketchups, sugar, only skim milk, not 2%,
skim and whole grain non sweet cerial, whole wheat bread, buy some protein,
include lean meats like ham, and other sources of protein, no red
meats,multivitamin, calcium and vitamin d every 2 days, v8. Don't starve, eat a
small healthy meal, a lot of small meals opposed to a few bigger ones-- make sure is has at least 8-10 or more g, not too much protein,
the body can only digest a certain amount at a time, avoid too many fruits, carbs
and sugars, fiberous veggies, greens (no starches or potatoes) and no bbq sauce
(unless used sparringly) and not too much salad dressing, before bed (2 hrs), eat something with protein, dont eat many carbs before bed. Eat some of that good cereal in the morning, you need carbs, just not too much, and the slow ones.
Do crunches until you can not do anymore, jog, warm up and sprint, short bursts
of intense activity is very effective compared to long weak activity, just don't
over do it, and do some lunges until it burns, do this every day or 2 days, keep
going and don't give up, same with eating, you need fat, so one fish oil daily,
eat fish (not fried, be careful, very careful for bones, peanut butter on whole
wheat (no jelly),which has protein, and dont worry about the fat in that,
avocodos, has fat, good fat, eat it when your hunger cravings get you. when you
do crunches, also twist on some to work your sides, keep tension on your abs.
