my mom did a diet. with no dariy products or bread stuff like that like a hamburger but no cheese or bread and she lost a lot of weight doing . exercise helps and makes the procese go by faster. ]
Yes, but excercising is definitely a better idea. I'm an experienced runner and I know for a fact that running and taking in less calories is the best combination for losing weight. If you're excersising A LOT make sure your calorie intake is a little higher than normal. And less calories isn't a one-way ticket to weight loss. Less calories AND jogging or working out is. And eating just fat calories is not better than excercing by any means either. ]
Yes. If short-term weight loss is your only concern, then exercise is not so important. Considering calorie loss alone, choosing not to eat a hamburger is roughly equivalent to exercising for 2-3 hours. Dieting is much more effective than exercise.
However, an exercise routine will eventually cause you to burn more calories while at rest. For a long-term weight loss plan, diet *and* exercise is the best choice. ]
If you don't like to exercise a easy way is to ride a exercising bike which is easy to do while watching
TV. You should be eating 5-6 oz of grains each day, 3 cups of dairy each day ,4-6 oz of protein each day,healthy fats sources for healthy fats include fish, flax, seeds, nuts, vegetable oils like olive oil, peanut oil, and safflower oil.5-9 servings of fruits & vegetables each day, Very little sugar & sweets.Lots of fiber. Not too much salt, & drink PLENTY of water. Being a vegetarian helps too to lose weight quicker & you eat healthier.
Hope I helped !xo ]
