What is a reasonable goal for a friendly body-fat loss competition between me and my boyfriend?

admin — Sun, 01 Aug 2010 18:14:50 +0000

I am 28yrs., 5 ft. 8 in., 150 lbs, with 22%-24% body fat depending on the calculator used. My boyfriend is 27yrs., 5 ft. 11 in., 170 lbs with 24-30% body fat depending on calculator. We’d like to start exercising (we were both very athletic in high school and I also in college) but we have been pretty inactive for 3 years now.

I’d love for an expert to tell me what would be a reasonable goal to set for body fat loss if we commit to exercising 3-4x per week 30-45 min. each time for 4 to 6 weeks (no diet modifications yet, just exercise). I know guys burn it off faster than girls, so I would like to know what would be a fair, comparable loss for each of us. That way we can see who really "won" and have some fun with it.

Thanks so much for your help!

Well, the first thing you can do is have a professional body fat test as those online calculators are very inaccurate.

And to lower body fat, it is a case of strength training as well as cardio and a high protein diet.

A good place to aim if you want to look really lean without looking ripped would be 18%-22% for a female and 10%-14% for a male. If you want that six pack, then 16%-18% for a female and 8%-10% for a male.

How to lose weight with herbal weight loss?

admin — Sun, 01 Aug 2010 18:14:28 +0000

I need to lose at least 40 pounds so I can have a slim and lean sexy body. I also lack the energy level I used to have when I was lighter. I tried some diets and exercise, but without lasting effects. So, how can I lose that weight naturally and with herbs without compromising my nutritional health in the process? Please give an advice of some good solution/method on the internet on herbal weight loss that will work.

Hi. I’ve had the same problem like you for some time and I know what it’s all about. Then I came across a website, http://www.herbalweightlossbeauty.com This website provides a great solution to your problem. Not only did I lose all the weight I needed to lose, but I also optimized my nutritional health, increased my energy level and my cognitive focus. By replacing two meals a day with these highly nutritious complete meal shakes and supplements enhanced with botanicals (herbs), I was able to lose all that weight and without going hungry. I also feel much younger and healthier. When you’re trying to lose weight, it’s important to get that balanced nutrition like you said. That program delivered results and the balanced nutrition. Big thanks to that website.

What is a cheap, safe, natural fat-loss supplement?

I’m looking for just a little boost of fat-loss. I’m within ten pounds of my goal (lost 15 already), but took the summer off for the most part due to circumstances beyond my control. I’ve probably gained back a little of it. So, what’s a natural weight-loss supplement that could help give me the little boost I need to make it to where I want to go?

How does birth control affect weight loss?

admin — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 16:20:22 +0000

I have been on a strict weight loss program. I eat generally healthy and go to the gym 5 to 6 times a week and about three times with a personal trainer.
However, soon I am planning on getting into birth control pills. I have been told that your hormones go crazy with the pills… Would this affect my weight loss? I know it reacts differently with each woman… but what are the possibilities?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Athena,

I can relate. I went on Depo Provera and I experienced weight loss which was cool because I didn’t want to have unnecessary weight gain while on my health regimen. I am sure it affects every woman differently though. Hope this helps )

What is the difference between weight loss and fat loss? Which of the two is recommended more than the other?

admin — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 14:44:42 +0000

I was under the impression that fat loss leads to weight loss or vice versa but it seems both are different. Can anyone explain the difference??
and I want to get any advise/tips for fat/weight loss… thank you

Weight loss could be fat loss + muscle loss + water loss. This sets you up for rebound weight gain. the water loss will come back. The loss muscle will be replaced with fat when the weight comes back. Weight loss alone that is not ALL fat loss is not sustainable. Weight loss can be achieved via dieting but fat loss can only be achieved via a sensible diet and exercise. Fat loss is sustainable on the long term as you will most likely build on your muscle reserves while you lose fat. Fat loss is correct weight loss.

Low Fat Foods don’t work
You cannot lose weight using Low Fat Diets. Low fat foods have been popular for more than 15 years, but yet our society is getting more overweight as each year passes. This fact alone should tell you that eating a purely low fat menu is not the answer to losing weight.

Low Calorie Diets don’t work
You won’t lose weight using a Low Calorie Dieting Plan either. In fact, eating low calories is the worst thing that you can do to your body, since that will only slow down your body’s fat burning engine and ruin all chances of losing weight (low calorie diets may allow a few pounds of weight loss for the first few days, but then after that all weight loss comes to a halt — known as a dieting plateau). You can never get slim by starving yourself.

Low Carb Plans don’t work
You’ll probably find it extremely difficult to get slim using a Low Carb Dieting Plan. Low carb diets have recently become popular over the last couple years, but the problem with low carb menus is that they are too strict and TOO HARD TO FOLLOW for average people. Low carb menus tend to rob your body of too much energy (carbohydrates) and make it nearly impossible to remain on the program for very long. This is why so many dieters find it difficult to follow a strict low carbohydrate menu.
