Question by sara: Tips for weight loss?
School is almost over for a month so I know this is the best time for me to get into a routine of diet and exercise...
I'm not one of those people that can run in the elements/cold. I have a treadmill, 3 and 5lb weights, and a 30-minute beginners yoga dvd with the mat, brick, strap. And I plan on getting into the habit of doing crunches. I don't have the money to buy exercise equipment except maybe some time of dvd.
I'm a college student so I'm pretty much broke...and the holidays make it even worse haha so its hard for me to go out and buy lots of health food. I love veggies and fruit and salad. Any good/CHEAP ideas for what I can eat thats healthy? Maybe something that will make things equal out with the fact that my boyfriend is Italian and the food is reallly good? haha...
I'm 5'6, 155lbs, medium build and would like to start off small with losing 10lbs.
Please, any ideas/suggestions would be helpful!
I've also been drinking the Special K protein water and having the meal bars...not sure if that helps with anything I'm trying to do though...
Any good cereals (that taste good would be nice!) that are ideal for weight loss?
I very rarely drink sodas, or sweets (the holidays kills me though), I rarely get fast food, I drink a good amount of water...I would also like to focus a lot of my attention on my lower body (i know you can't lose in just one area)
Best answer:
Hey! I just started this program called "Isagenix"... 2 of my friends have been on it for a week and have lost 5 lbs already... i have another friend who has been doing it for 3 months and shes lost 23 lbs and 60 inches all around. It's awesome cause it's not a diet it's a cleanse, so what it does is detox your body from all the toxins we have and therefor releasing fat. It makes you healthy and provides you with all the nutrients you need...
it's pretty cheap too. they give you shakes that your suppose to replace 2 meals with so it comes out to be like 8 dollars a day for 2 meals ... plus they give you everything else you need to help you in your cleanse.
heres the website if you want to check it out!

Introduce A Weight Loss Video To Your Weight Loss Plan
Article by Lucinda Pires-Ribeiro
Some people feel self conscious when they work out at a gym--or simply do not enjoy running, walking or bicycling in their neighborhoods. If you would prefer to exercise in the comfort of your own home and not have an audience, then a weight loss video is for you.
In choosing a weight loss video that is appropriate for you, consider how much weight you need to lose, how many pounds you want to lose per week, and how much time you have to devote to exercise. Be realistic and honest with yourself!
You then need to choose the weight loss video or DVD that is right for you. Be aware that there are plenty of videos that say that they are suitable for beginners when in fact they are too complicated. If you are not a beginner, then the search for the right video is simple, but if you aren't, then it can be more difficult.
Of course, you will need to do your research. One option is to check fitness websites to find out what their recommendations are for novices. Another option is to read reviews in a variety of fitness magazines.
Fitness magazines are a wealth of information. Read the reviews from fitness pros. These individuals know what they are talking about. They review workouts on a regular basis and assess them based on their level of safety and also based on skill levels.
The Internet also has lots of reviews on weight loss videos for you to peruse. Search around to read as many reviews as possible. Did the people who used the videos love it or not? Did they lose weight or not? How much weight did they lose? How long did it take for them to lose the weight?
The longer customer reviews are, the more beneficial they will be to you. Be aware however that not every review may be 100% accurate. The more you read the better all around idea you will get about the videos or DVDs in question.
It is extremely important that you are honest about your present fitness and skill level. If you have been living a sedentary life for quite some time, then you run the risk of hurting yourself if you jump right into working out to an advanced video.
On the other hand, do not assume that because you are skilled at one form of exercise that this automatically means that you will be skilled at another. For example, just because you have been running for many years does not mean that you will be as equally proficient at aerobics or yoga.
It is always best to start with an introductory video that matches where you are in your fitness level today. It is also wise to heed the warnings that all weight loss videos mention on the book and at the start of the video. The guideline states "Check with your doctor before beginning this or any other exercise program." Being safe is always better than being sorry.
Even if you are a healthy person this is important advice! Those who have a history of health problems or conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetics; should never start to work out to a weight loss video before checking with their doctor first.
