Need advice

Anishanbie Posts: 2 Joined: 2011/10/27	2011/10/27, 04:42 PM I am 25 years old 6'2'' in the 350+ weight, I am looking to lose this weight and most of my weight is located to the top half of my body. I have cut out soda, been slipping up with that lately been eating salad every night but lacking in that. I just don't feel a difference or see one in 2 weeks, I know most people say you can't but walking 30 minutes a day eating less eating healthier just didn't feel a difference in two weeks. So I am losing interest and just losing hope in losing weight. I got no real support on this so I guess thats why I signed up here to get some help and some motivation.

Weight is a funny thing. Most often your body wont give up the first pound or two willingly. But it's a numbers game and you can win it. There are 3500 calories in a pound. You need to count calories both eaten and burned. Educate yourself on how to eat and add some exercising. You will beat the numbers. Do you walk outside or use a treadmill? Nobody can motivate you but you. Fitness is a change of lifestyle both in eating and exercise. Good luck. -------------- I would have a million dollars now if only I had only followed CNBCs advice...and I had started with a hundred million dollars. Charlie

Every single one says that proper diet and exercise are required for them to work. With proper diet and exercise you don't need the supplement. Pete is selling supplements and is a rotten no good spammer. One post and a link to a sales web sight says it all.

Obviously you should do one day weight lifting and one day cardio with a rest day every week. Cardio Days: The most important thing is to be 50-60% of your maximum heart rate (so you are gonna burn fat), it doesn't really matter if you run or go on a bike. I suggest bike to avoid more problems on the knee. Weight lifting days: You should this 3 workouts (elliptical bike is up to you but it is a good way to warm up before weight lifting):  1. Chest & Back - Bike Chest press with dumbbells Chest press inclinate with bar Crossover chest One Arm Dumbbell Rows Lat Machine "V" Deadlift link: https://createworkouts.com/w/VyMrZigIG 2. Arms  Bike Butterfly with dumbbell Curl Biceps with bar Curl Biceps with bench Triceps with dumbbell Triceps pulley link: https://createworkouts.com/w/Ey6x-ig8z 3. Leg day  Bike Leg press incline Alternative legs, leg extension Leg curl with machine Calf with multipower link: https://createworkouts.com/w/V1HExoe8M And never forget to stretch at the end of each workout! Stretching the mussels that you work out!
