one grapefruit after exercising.

exercise:
2 hours at the gym (weight lifting ab exercise)
1 (minimum) hour walking
15-30 minutes rope jumping
10-15 minutes up and down the stairs

3 litres of water

What do you think of this? Could I lose 3-4 kgs really fast? Like 7-10 days? I am not a big girl, I have 51 kgs and want to get down to 47-48. I have been on a weight loss protein diet for the past 5 weeks and one with a bit of carbs for the 6th one, but these last 3 kgs just won't come off :)

How long should it take to notice weight loss after a change in my diet?

Over the last few days I've been eating fewer simple carbs (but more fruits and veggies, just not bread or junk) and more protein. I've also been walking.

How long before I should start losing weight?

What is a good weight loss diet for vegetarians?

My husband and I are both vegetarians (well I eat seafood, but he does not). We both need to lose at least 40 pounds. What is a good diet program that would work with what we eat. I know a lot of people that lost weight with Atkins & South Beach, but those diets don't really fit in to a vegetarian lifestyle. I am not looking for a quick fix, but something that we will be able to stick with for awhile. I know that part of our problem is that we eat a lot of carbs. We practically live on pasta. Its hard because we work different schedules so neither one of us really cooks a meal, but rather grabs something to eat. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Is it ok to have unsweetened almond milk on a weight loss diet?

I normally have fat free milk which is about 90 calories a cup, 13g carbs and 0g fat. I recently tried un sweetened vanilla flavored almond milk, 40 calories a cup, 2g carbs, 3g fat. It tastes really good too! I was wondering if I can have a cup of it per day on my diet...is taking 3g of fat from this a bad idea? How many grams of fat per day are you supposed to eat on a weight loss diet?

high in fiber diet/weight loss at 40?

I'm on a high in fiber diet for health and weight loss reasons. My mother passed away from cancer and she was a diabetic, high blood pressure, 6 heart attacks...so this kicked my butt into action. I'm almost 40 and weigh about 190 lbs. I should workout more than I do, but on the food side 90% of the time I'm on target with good habits. I need to know numbers with advice on fibers, fats, cal.s, carbs. ETC... then on e other hand with the exercise. Plus I'd like to do the same for my 11 yr. olds son, please help me out...thanks!

What is a good all around diet plan for weight loss?

I have been doing a ton of research and am coming up with things like "cut out carbs and sugars" and "stay away from starches". What I would really like is a list or a site that has a list of do eat and don't eat foods so that I can put it together. Any suggestions?

Will taking Hoodia pills help or hurt my weight loss when I am on the ATKINS Diet?

I have done the Atkins diet before successfully and realize that every little bit of hidden sugar and carbs (like in diet sodas) will slow down your weight loss dramatically. What I was wondering is if I am doing the Atkins diet, would taking Hoodia pills help me in my weight loss or slow it down ?

How is my weight loss plan?

I'm 14 years old, 5'3 and 141 lbs.

Diet: I usually eat four meals a day (breakfast, lunch, snack, and dinner) that add up to around 1300-1500 calories. (I'm a vegetarian so I eat a lot of soup, stir fried vegetables, and tofu. I try not to eat a lot of carbs, but pasta is my weakness.) Also, I drink about 8-10 cups of water a day (I don't know if this makes a difference, but I used to drink way less water).

Exercise: At least five days a week, I do 40 minutes cardio on my elliptical machine, 100 jumping jacks, 100 crunches, 25 reverse crunches, 50 bicycles, 25 lunges, 25 squats, and I do some light weight lifting. I stretch a lot throughout the day too.

I've been doing this for two weeks but I've only lost 1 lb. I want to lose 6 more pounds which will put me in the healthy weight range.

Any comments/suggestions?
