Hey ppl... I was just wondering if any one had any ideas on how to lose the flab that hangs around the hips area. Thx a lot:)

okay if you want to lose the weight around your hips you cant just do sit ups and crunches because those are only working one part of your body. like..what im trying to say is that you can do 1000 situps a day and it really wouldnt make a difference because you are building muscle but you cant see the muscle because there is a layer of fat covering it..soo if you want to lose weight around the stomach area then you have to do different kinds of excersises..swimming...running...sports..but you can also do sit ups and crunches..do you get what im saying?

Ok, ummm...you know when you're too fat too run? How do I work my slow pace walk to a steady paced run? I'm a girl, very overweight, and large-chested so it's hard for me to run right now. How much should I walk everyday?
Reply From James - 06/23/03 - IP#: 64.151.22.xxx show message replied to go to original board
Renee- FoWalk about 15 minutes a day until you no longer feel that is challenging you physically. Then up it to 20 minutes until *that* doesn't challenge you. Continue to walk longer & faster, and when you feel like you can, add a little jogging into it (even if it's just a few steps). You'll be a world-class runner in no time. ;) -James

You need to exercise. Healthy eating and exercise is the ONLY way to successfully and healthily lose weight. It's not that hard: swimming is even an exercise. Do something you like, like swimming or walking, every day for at least 15 minutes. Take your dog for a walk, or your little brother and sister...Exercising isn't as hard as it sounds. You'll do fine. -J

hey, yeah, ok, this is what i do, i walk everyother day. if i don't want to i say you can't wear those jeans. try when u drink water, add a spoonful of sugar or a little lemon juice. i swear it works, try to do one thing one day, then somthing different, make a pattern of exercise, if you can still walk, then you can exercise, it is the only way you can do it with out putting ur health a t risk.

I'm not fat but after school every day I take my bike and ride for 30 min (Hilly areas are best cause it takes more effort). Then I do some stretching after swimming is also an excellent way to loose. Please e-mail me back at bluelilly27@hotmail.com if you wanna know more or IM me at Summerblossom27.

Ht. 5'3", Today: 112 lb (BMI %tile: 60) - I am not fat, i am 112 at 5'3", but I thought I'd make a suggestion. I started taking a really cool fitness class. In the beginning, we do stretches for about 25 mins. to warm up and stretch our bods. Next, for about 50 mins, we do a heavy arobics work-out, with weights and stuff. The last part is stretching, relaxing yoga. Well, after 2 weeks, my stomach is perfectly flat, i am getting nicely toned, and I am happy with my body. I have a curvy, hourglass figure, and I will never be "bone-thin". But anyone can TONE the body that they are born with, and make it more shapely. Plus, laydeez, don't try to fit that stick-thin image. Guys HATE stick thin. They think it's disgusting. I think it goes back to instinct; the brain knows that a too-skinny body is not capable of carrying a child. A healthy, curvy body, though, can carry a healthy baby. Just exercise and eat right!!!! If you want me to give you some exercises and really good eating ideas, email me at Sarahcor123@aol.com. I never thought it was possible, but determination CAN help you lose weight quickly!

Hey Gurl! To lose weight eat three HEALTHY meals a day. Try not to eat between meals but if you are really hungry eat a fruit or veggie, they are very good for you. Also drink 8 glasses of water a day. Eliminate foods with lots of fat and calories from your diet. Only go out to eat once a month. Also it's extremely important to get 60 minutes of aerobic exercise every day. Jump Rope while watching your favorite TV show, Hula hoop to your favorite song, Rollerblade, Ride your bike, or anything else that helps you get your heart pumping. I hope this helps Brittany. Good luck! :)

It's important to get 1 hour of aerobic excercize each day. Here are a few fun ways to get some exercise:*Hop on one food to get the mail*Jump rope to your favorite song*Do one push up, one jumping jack, one toe touch, and one sit up. They try two of each. Then three. See how high you can go!*Time how long it takes you to run around the block. Rest 2 minutes and try again to improve your time.*ALWAYS REMEMBER BEFORE AND AFTER YOU EXCERCISE MAKE SURE TO GENTLEY STRETCH YOUR ARMS, LEGS, WAIST, AND NECK TO PREFENT INJURY!I hope this helps! Good luck to all of you! :)
