DethNcarnate	Eat half of your breakfast about an hour before cycling, and the rest of your breakfast afterwards. This helps boost metabolism, which will help burn calories throughout the day. And for the rest of the day... drink a lot of water throughout, but drink a lot of water before meals. This helps decrease the amount you feel like eating. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

rampage	I’m 5ft 9 and only weigh 126pounds this is what works for me; Eat regularly, if possible every three hours, when your body realises that it's getting a regular supply of food it increases it's metabolism, burning calories quicker and is much less likely to store calories as fat. When eating try to eat a lot of high protein foods and don't go too hard on the carbs. Try go easy on trans and saturated fats although you are allowed the odd treat. Drink lots of water! At least one gallon per day. Tea, coffee and fizzy drinks are O.K but they don' count towards your overall water intake. Vegetables are also very important they contain vital vitamins and antioxidants so include plenty of these in your diet. As for exercise I do some light weight training four days a week and cardiovascular (I use a rowing machine) two days a week with one days rest. There is a common belief that doing cardiovascular exercise on an empty stomach helps burn calories. This is absolute rubbish do not do it. Weight training is a good idea as muscle tissue burns a lot of energy, even while you sleep. You don't have to become Mr/Mrs universe but any fat tissue which you can convert to muscle tissue will not only make you look better but increase your metabolism. Getting plenty of sleep is also important when trying to build muscle. Good Luck Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

daisy	Eat healthily. No sweets, cakes, chips, burgers or take aways. Eat lots of fruit and veg. Cycle further. Half a mile is nothing. Any form of exercise should be a minimum of 10 minutes 3 times a day. Check your pulse before you exercise and your exercise should double your pulse. Its good you recognise your need to do this. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

susannah2b	it's easy to say but so difficult to live: 1. eat less 2. exercise more - and every day. Even half an hour walking. but since you already exercise (although half a mile a day on a cycle is pretty small), you'll have to work on the food element. You CAN eat loads, but that 'loads' has to be vegetables (always keep raw carrots or Celery on hand to chew) as a first choice, then fruit, then unprocessed foods containing lots of roughage. Always eat the least processed form of whatever you fancy; for example in flour based foods, go for bread instead of cakes - and wholemeal bread, at that. If you fancy & must have chips, do your own and bake them in the oven. Learn to enjoy fish. Cook your own. Any sort, and as often as you can. If you must have meat, buy from a butcher & cook it yourself. * MAIN SINGLE RULE * buy and eat no fast food whatever. Always check what is in the food you put into your body, you're never going to get another one. Good luck. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Sal	when your bored you must eat, like me. Just eat vegitables instead. and if you dont got that just drink some tea. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Tin T	if your eating out of boredom you need to control yourself and i understand its harder than said. Think of another activity when your bored or just lay down and go to sleep! I think what may help you is a carbs free diet - where you eat small meals throughout the day- these meals must be protein based and no pasta, bread, rice or any forms of sugar is allowed( such as cakes, biscuits, crisps and junk foods) Small meals are things such as salads - you can do some research on such meals and because you'll need to prepare quite a few meals throughout the day - it'll prevent you from being bored! henece, you'll be eating regularly throughout the day and won't be bored. Also, do swimming (the best cardio work out) and running. Add some weight traning in as well! wish you the best of luck!! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Canute	A good system is a large breakfast, smaller lunch & an evening meal mainly salad. That way, calories are used in a logical fashion, so that they are burnt during the day & do not change to fat at night when you don't need them. Drink a lot, which will keep you from feeling empty. Find out what your weight should be in accordance with your height, and weigh yourself not more than once a week. Once you have reached your required weight, do not lose any more, just concentrate on not putting it on. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

monkey	Eat less, move more Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Dania C	Keep exercising, eat small meals throughout the day and keep a food diary (if possible). Remember, the weigh won't fall off in a day - it takes time. And by the way, YOU are the only person who can control what you eat! Good Luck! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

poscoma	Need to eat more often! But eat less each time. Give your body time to digest. When I was losing wait, I ate about 6 times a day, but I only have very small meals, enough to keep me going for another hour or 2. Increase your cycling, 1/2 mile is nothing! I ride 4.5km a day and I think that is small. Why don't you ride to school? At least that becomes mandatory exercise! Alternatively, get the school bus to 1/2 way, and ride your bike from there if it is too far. Just think of yourself in the mirror each time you want to "give up". Or think about someone you like and do it for them! Anyhow, these are my methods, not too sure if they will work for you. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

beverley r	some one once told me to imagine a slimy slug slithering all over your food ,if you can do this it will dull you appetite for what you are about to eat .if you are in your teens and overweight do something now life is too short and you can miss out on so much and it just gets harder the older you get its a vicious circle if it goes on too long. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

*New Mummy*	only thing you can do is eat less and exercise more. Eat healthy food and cut down portion sizes - have a treat once in a while and make sure you exercise min 3 times per week Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Precious	Easiest way to lose weight fast and safely is to cut your calorie intake by eating more on fiber, fruits and vegetables. You'll feel full with fewer calories on them. Fruits, vegetables and fibers are packed with nutrients but less on calories. I lost 10 pounds in just 2 months using these tips. Here are Tips to help speed up your metabolism plus help you lose weight without being miserable. they worked for me =) 1. Fill up on Fiber and Lose Weight Fast Fill up on Fiber - Foods rich in fiber will make you feel satisfied and help curb your appetite, helping you to lose weight fast and safely - so make sure to pack your diet with fruits, vegetables and whole grains. 2. Boost fat-burning metabolic rate by 50% by sipping coffee Sipping coffee before a meal can supress appetite by 35%, plus boost fat-burning metabolic rate by 50%, according to extensive research at Vanderbilt University in Nashville. The study-proven dose : 250 mg of caffeine daily, taken either in supplement form or by sipping to cups of coffee or 4 cups of tea. 3. Lose Weight just by eating Yogurt Yogurt is a Calcium-rich food. Research links Calcium with lower cortisol production, and it has been proven that women who increase they're intake lose up to 40% more weight than Calcium avoiders. Plus Yogurt has live microorganisms which helps proper digetion and absorption of nutrients we take. Make sure to get yogurts that says "with live microorganisms in labels/packages". 4. Try this Hunger-Taming Trick Cut fat and you'll cut cravings. Consuming a high-fat diet may supress your body's natural satiety signals, according to a new study from Pennsylvania State University. Animals who'd been consuming a diet rich in fat ended up eating 40% more of a high-calorie snack than those on average diets. Keep your fat intake to less than 30% of total calories. 5. Feel full on less food. Apples are rich in pectin, a soluble Fiber that slows the digestive process, so you'll feel full on less food.The result: You'll eat just enough food to make you happy, reducing calorie intake. 6. Studies suggest people pursuing a healthy weight could lose more weight and burn more fat by including 24 ounces a day of low fat or fat-free milk in their reduced-calorie diet, instead of 8 ounces or less. 7. Speed fat burn with Cranberries. The Ascorbic Acid in cranberries helps thin liver bile, making it easier for the organ to emulsify fat so so it can be quickly flushed out of the system rather than stored in cells. 8. Boost your protein intake and lose almost a pound a week without hunger. You can try protein smoothies. Packed with nutrients and low in calories, smoothies are a fast, easy and great tasting way to achieve good health. You can find a wide collection of healthy fruit smoothies at : http://fruitsmoothierecipe.bravehost.com By boosting your protein intake from the typical 15% of total calories to 30%, you may be able to cut your daily calorie intake by 440-enough to lose almost a pound a week without hunger, according to a recent University of Washigton study. "A high-protein diet appears to fool the brain into thinking you've eaten more than you have," says the study's lead author, Scott Weigle, M.D., a professor of endocrinology at the University of Washington School of Medicine. Stick with lean protein rather than high-fat, artery clogging meat and dairy products. For breakfast, use low-fat milk instead of water in your oatmeal and sprinkle nuts on top. Eat plenty of beans, fish and skinless chicken breast. 9. To counteract a binge, keep your body's fat-burning furnace running on full blast by drinking Green Tea. Green Tea contains caffeine and the antioxidant epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) , which is proven to boost metabolic rate. In fact, in a recent 3 month study, participants who took Green Tea extract lost 4.6% of their body weight without changing their diet. To get the benefit, drink at least 3 cups a day. Whenever I ate too much, I just drink Green Tea and I don't have to worry gaining weight. 10. Speed weight loss and double energy levels by eating Coconuts. This tropical treats contain medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs), a unique fat that is shuttled straight to the liver and immediately burned for fuel. Research shows this little detour revs metabolic rate by up to 50%, speeding weight loss and doubling energy levels Plus my favorite tip : Before you eat, drink a glass of water. This will help you feel fuller without additional calories (water has no calories).
