Answers:
I lost weight with the only exercise being walking, so I definitley know its possible and a wonderful way to get moving!. But of course if you are overeating you'll either stay at the same weight or depending on how much your eating- gain weight!.

Losing weight first starts with being happy with yourself and loving *YOU* on the inside!. Try everyday to smile and laugh, LAUGHING is super helpful!. It seems weird but it really does help! =) Try to follow a 1600 calorie diet!.
It's best to have 5 meals a day that way you don't get to hungry because that leads to over eating!.
Here is a couple ideas to help you get started:

Breakfast:
Oatmeal and a piece of wheat toast w/ 2tsp!. trans free margarine!. -OR- Strawberry Banana Smoothie (In a blender process until smooth, 1 small banana, 1/2 cup strawberries, 1/2 cup fat free milk, 1/2 cup low fat plain yogurt, 2 tsp!. honey, and 1 or 2 ice3 cubes!. You can have your smoothie with 1 or 2 pieces of whole wheat toast!. -OR- An egg on a piece of wheat toast with salsa (make 2 servings) ---If you are still huingry at breakfast have a small piece of fruit!.

Lunch:
1 cup soup (water based not cream base) and a Cheese and Tomato Sandwich: 2 slices whole wheat bread, 2 slices reduced fat cheese, mustard and sliced tomato!. -OR_ instead of the tomato sandwich 2 pieces whole wheat with 2 slices of Turkey and Mustard!. -OR- A Lean Cuisine Frozen Meal (These are actually very tasty!. The meat is delicious!.

Dinner: 1 piece Chicken Breast with 2 side dishes: 1 cup steamed veggies, 1 sweet potato, 3/4 cup corn, 3/4 cup butternut squash, etc!.

Dessert:
Light Ice Cream or Frozen Yogurt:
3/4 cup with no more than 110 calories per 1/2 cup topped with tablespoon chocalate syrup!.

Snacks:
Steamed Veggies, fruit, any nuts (these are great protein),
my personal favorite snack is Light and Fit 60 calorie yogurt cup with a 100 calorie Granola Bar!. (I cruch up the Granola Bar and put it inside of my yogurt!.)
Also there are alot of great ideas if you go to fast food for example!.!.!.!.

You can have any of the under 6 grams of fat sandwiches! They're delicious just No MAyo!. My favorite is Sweet Onion Chicken Teriyaki!. I like to get a foot long and have a 6' for lunch and a 6' for dinner!.

Also make sure you do 30 minutes of excercise 5 days a week!. I like to walk to the store and back instead of drive =)

This was just some ideas to help you on your way!.

Also its great to drink one glass of water before eating!. Water is very important! It takes your body 30 minutes to tell your brain you're full so sometimes after you eat a small meal wait 30 minutes to see if you are still hungry or not!.


GOOD LUCK!!! I know you can do it!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hi there,

I think you might be getting a little mixed up with what you want exactly!. You say that you want to lose "weight" but that means you might want to get rid of some muscle too!. You then say that you'd like to "shape" (I'd call it tone) your body a little which implies you want to build some muscle!. I'm not trying to pick at your question - I just want to clarify the point for you!.

To answer it in the best way, I am going to look at it as if you want to get rid of fat AND build muscle at the same time!. If you're looking to "trim" and "tone" your body, and espectially because you suggest you are not that overweight, I would suggest you start performing more intensive aerobic exercises such as jogging!. I wouldn't think you need to change the whole way you eat or go on a diet because if you're wanting to build muscles - it's better to do it all with exercise!.

Exercises like jogging won't exactly "build" your muscles on your stomach but they will help reduce the extra fat around there!. Depending on how fit you are, you should go on daily or bi-daily jogs of around a mile!. To build muscles, you should concentrate on anaerobic exercises such as sit-ups to help build muscles!.

These muscle-building exercises will give your muscles the toning and training they need to grow and become more prominent!. To start to see a real difference with sit-ups, you should be looking to do no more than 100 every day (more than that will often hurt your muscles)!.

If you stick to doing those two forms of exercise - jogging and sit-ups, you should see real improvements in a week or two!. Remember, you should do them as often as you can (I!.E every single day)!.
