What can i do to lose some weight?
all my life i’ve had a hard time losing weight. my doctor told me it’s not my fault and it’s just a medical condition i have. but he told me if i don’t lose some weight, i’m gonna have problems in the future. my aunt is helping me with that and she’s getting me prepared for band camp. i’ve been trying to run 2 miles almost everyday (and it’s really working). i hardly ever eat and she’s gotten me to eat more healthier. we set a goal for me to at least drop down more than 2 sizes in my clothes. what else can i do to get me to a more healthier weight?
Losing weight is a simple equation: if you burn more calories than you eat, the weight will come off. Start off by estimating how many calories you burn each day using the daily calorie needs calculator http://calorieneedscalculator.com This will give you an idea of how many calories to eat. Healthy weight loss is 1-2 pounds per week. To lose 1 pound per week you need to create a calorie deficit (burn more than you eat) of 500 calories per day. To lose 2 pounds a week, you have to double the deficit to 1000 calories per day. You can achieve this by eating less, exercising more or a combination of both.

Exercise is the best thing you can do and you cannot do it without it. Do some weights if you want more muscle which will burn those calories faster. Walk instead of ride. Drink water instead of anything else. Eat more fruits and vegies.
