carebear,
thatgirl has given you great information... but suppliments are not the way to go (Metabolife). Things like that are not life threatening, but they give you false effects. They suppress your appetite and "burn fat". Well to tell you the truth the only reason the you loose weight is because you are starving yourself. There's no quick way to loose weight and keep it off. Your body is like a car, it needs fuel (food) to work. It's not so much of how much you eat, it's HOW you eat. For example, instead of fried chicken, bake it. Take in alot of fruits and veggies and drink ALOT of water. You should cut back on starchy foods (carbs). I know that you need to cut back, almost everybody eats more carbohydrates than they should and don't even think about it. Example: the food guide pyramid says to eat 6-11 servings of carbs a day. Did you know that a serving of carbs is 1 SLICE of bread or a cup of COOKED rice?
Cardio exerise is the key to a successful weight loss. Without this, it will be harder to keep the weight off. If you can do at least a 1/2 hour of constant exercise a day (three days a week at least) starting off, you are on your way to a successful weight loss. This is just a little bit of stuff I know. I majored in Sports Medicine in college and I am a trainer now. If you need any more information email me or reply. Please excuse any misspelled words or anything else that is wrong...I'm ready to go to bed but I had to check and see what you ladies were talking about tonight!!
