Fast way to lose fat is a dream for almost every fat people. They dream of quickly losing fat so that they can get back to do whatever they used to do. The sad news is that is not going to happen. If you are going to do what you used to do you will end up what you are now. Still, if you want to lose fat as quickly as you can and will think about how to maintain it later. Read on, you will find that losing ten pounds is not that difficult.

As a matter of fact, there is no fast way to lose fat. Unless you undergo the surgery, the fat loss process will take place gradually. This is the reason why.

Because your body controls your calories burning from your calories intake, it will not allow you to cut back your foods so drastically. Two things will happen if you do so.

1 Body will take away your muscle mass. Muscle is where most of the energy burning happens. Having less muscle means less metabolism or fat burning. You will be fat easier if you do this.

2 Body will turn you into starvation mode. This means you will have very low metabolism and the body will store calorie intake in form of fat as much as it can.

If you want to lose fat fast without having these two affects, you should consume less calories than your daily calories used. It is estimated that to lose one or two pounds a week, you will have to eat less calories than what you use by 15-20 %.

There are ways to calculate the calories you take. You can look at the package of the food or look at the recipe of each menu and estimate the calories. In order to calculate the calories used per day, we can use Harris Benedict Equation including:

BMR: Basal Metabolic Rate: The calories we use for our normal activities for example for being awake, breathing, sleeping, heart beat etc.

For Men: BMR = 66+(13.7 x weight in Kg)+(5 x height in cm)-(6.8 x age in year)

For Women: BMR = 655+(9.6 x weight in Kg)+(1.8 x height in cm)-(4.7 x age in year)

To come up with the calories you use per day, you will have to multiply BMR by the factor depending on what type of activities you have:

Sedentary job: BMR x 1.2

Light activities: BMR x1.375

Medium activities: BMR x 1.55

Very active: BMR x 1.725

Extremely active: BMR x 1.9

Once you have got the calories you use per day, make sure that you consume calories 15-20 % less than that number. You will lose one to two pounds a week without disturbing your body protection metabolism. If you want to lose ten pounds, you will get the weight you want within the next 5-10 weeks. This is my fast way to lose fat.

jimso — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 02:03:40 +0000

Weight gain and pregnancy comes together in normal circumstance. One thing that a woman has to know is that she must gain weight when she gets pregnant. If she loses weight during her pregnancy, she might need to see the doctor soonest. So, everyone knows that woman will gain more weight when they get pregnant. The problem is how much weight gain is the optimal one. That depends on the three factors. The amount of food she has, the body structure she has and how many babies she has. Read on and find out.
1 The amount and type of food:
Pregnant ladies do not have to eat a lot more foods than they used to do. Some think that they will have to double their food intake so that the body can spare for their baby. That is a wrong impression. Actually, you only need 100-300 calories more when you are pregnant. That is equivalent to a 250ml box of soy bean milk. Eating more than what you need will put more unnecessary weight on you. Make sure that you have the right type of foods to give your baby the best nutrients.
2 The body structure:
If you are an average size lady, you should put on 25-35 pounds. For an underweight body, the lady should put on 28-40 pounds. And if you are overweight, you should not put on more than 25 pounds. 15-25 pounds is the optimal weight gain during your pregnancy with this type of structure.
3 The number of babies:
It will be a lot different if you are carrying a single baby or twins. If you are having twins, you will put on the weight of around 37-54 pounds. You can do the math if you are having more than two babies at the same time.
Weight gain and pregnancy can happen to you. You should not be much worried about either of them. Just think about what you can do afterwards when you have a little one comes out to see the world.
