How do I lose 20 pounds? 10 points!?!

try a raw food or vegan diet. cut out sugar, dairy, and meats. eat as few carbs as possible.

I DO NOT MEAN STOP EATING A HEALTHY AMOUNT.

Just eat TONS of fruits and vegetables.

Do not eat 3 regular sized meals a day, split up for meals into 5 or 6 but make them much smaller. If you eat a lot of small portions throughout the day it keeps your metabolism moving and helps you burn more fat and calories during the day. If you generally eat big meals only three times a day, your body stores the fat because it knows it has to wait for extended periods of time before it will get another meal. retraining your body is key if you want to lose weight.

Also, try to do one hour of cardio at least 5 times a week.

and one more thing, eat your first meal right when you wake up, to give your metabolism a good start, and do not eat your last meal to close to the time you go to bed. try not to eat after 7 pm.

i hope this helps:)


i wouldn't be to worried about your weight, you sound healthy but i totally understand wanting to be in better shape.

i am 17, 5 '5 and weight 114, but i am a serious athlete and am always getting exercising and eating right.

it is best to only loose weight until you FEEL healthy, not until you feel others will see you best. if you start to feel exsauhsted or worn out, reconsider your eating and exercise habits.

hope this helps:)

When you are losing weight, you should exercise and diet together.
If you exercise without dieting, you will get bigger appetite, which
will lead to increase of weight, or muscle grow
underneath the fat layer, and make you bulkier. If you diet without
exercising, you will become flabby and will have excess skin. For
diet, go wheat free. No pasta, pizza, bread and so on. And no food
after 7 p.m. People achieve marvellous results with it. Depending on
your initial weight, you can drop upwards from 20 pounds a month. If
you don't eat wheat then you don't eat all those sticky, fatty goey
cakes, you don't eat junk food, and you don't eat biscuits. But your
diet is still balanced. It costs nothing, and you do not have to
calculate points or to buy special meals or plans. For exercising,
start with walking, and then switch to running/jogging. Running is the
most efficient and calorie-burn exercise ever. If you are overweight a
lot, walk first or you may have health complications (heart attack,
disjointed bones and so on). Weight lifting is a good means to target
your problem areas for men and women. It's not necessarily to become a
bodybuilder or even join a gym - a couple of dumbbells will help you
to target your problem areas (stomach, butt, legs, arms, chest).
