cut out the carbs and fat from your diet, and go into a sauna while riding a stationary bike. You can lose 20 lbs in 24hrs if you try hard enough. You'll burn the fat while cutting down your water weight. Just dont overdo it or else you'll die, not that big of a deal though :ermm:
LMAO @ losing 20 pounds in 24 hours but dont over do it............

what about targeting certain areas? Im tryin to burn some fat off my lower abs. I hit crunches and eat right and go running, but is there some other way I dont realize in which I can target just my lower abs?

You can't spot reduce fat. You have to lower your overall body fat percentage. But what you can do is work out the muscles in that area, as the bigger your muscles are, the more fat they burn throughout the day when you're doing nothing.


A good lower ab workout is leg lifts...lie on your back...put your hands under your ass ( No Homo ) and just lift your legs until they're vertical. Repeat.

DOESNT IT MATTER WUT TIME U GO TO SLEEP?
yep...just don't eat anything calorie-heavy a few (2-3) hours before you crash and you should be good...those unspent calories would likely just get stored as fat...pure protein (i.e. whey isolate) would be an acceptable snack tho...

Casein protein ( dairy ) is good before bed because its slow burning, and it'll help your body from going into a catabolic state, while your KO'ed.

true that...although the people interested in weight loss presumably have ample fat reserves, so i doubt muscle catabolism would be much of an issue for them...i definitely need to pick some up though--good lookin for the reminder

so yea im tryna drop like 15 pounds or so, anyone have good tips as far as deiting i aint tyryna turn vegan or nuthin lol but throw suggestions out there i already know exrecise is key but what about food intake wise?
It's real simple. I'm going to write this real quick, so if you have any complex questions, PM me.

As far as food, keep it simple.

Keep an eye on your carbohydrate intake, and the quality.

Stay away from fast food. Stay away from packaed frozen foods (Unless it's frozen vegetables, or frozen chicken breast, and so forth), stay away from packaged deli meats, sugared cereal for kids, all that crap.

As far as meat protein source; stick to chicken breast, fish (canned tuna, etc), and lean beef. Another great protein source are EGGS. Also 100% natural peanut butter.

As far as vegetables as a carb source, eat a lot of them. Try to stay away from carrots. Stick to cauliflower, brockoly, brussel sprouts, onions, yams, potatos, are all fine. Other carbohydrate sources are brown rice (Make a stir fry), oatmeal, and so forth.

Eat small balanced meals every 2-3 hours. You can stretch it to every 3-4 hours.

You may need to use the internet to find some healthy recipes that taste good, the bottom line is if you don't eat correctly you won't lose weight correctly, and no matter what you try, you may not lose any weight at all so what when and how much you eat is important.

Fruits, eat them in the morning. Avacados are good, oranges, apples, bananas, whatever.

Drink lots of water.

Stay away from pop or any drinks heavy in sugar. Stick to water.

Exercise, right when you wake up, go do cardio. Wake up, wash your face, warm up, grab some water, and go do cardio. Ask any fitness expert and they will tell you this, you will be more likely to burn more fat, stored fat essentially which is what you want, you may be more at risk to muscle catabolism by doing cardio first thing, rather than say, after lunch, but there are ways to prevent this. Such as SHORT sessions, and maybe a protein shake mixed with water while you are training.

Start off your first week with 30-45 min light-moderate sessions, do laps in your backyard if you have to, or up and down your stairs, if you got an old treadmill or stepper in the house, pull that out and put it in your room, every second morning do this, follow this into the second week, but start incorporating sprint sessions during the end of the second week. Sprint hardcore as fast as you can until you can't, and then rest for 5-6 minutes, and do it again. Sprinting will help raise your metabolism throughout the rest of the day, meaning you will continue to stay in a fat-burning state, and you cang et away with maybe a small cheat meal.

Remember to do cardio before you eat, right when you wake up, splash water on your face, do a quick 5-10 minute warm up, get your blood flowing, then start a good 45 minute cardio session. If you REALLY need to eat, have a banana or something. After your session, try to get a protein shake in, have a solid breakfast (Not cereal and milk), try, eggs and oatmeal, shower, brush ya teeth, go to work, yada yada, go on with your day.

Don't eat late at night. Set a certain time where you stop eating, say if you go to bed at 12, have your last meal at 8-9 and keep the carbohydrates low. Ex. Peanut butter sandwich and a glass of water maybe a piece of fruit.

You don't want to go to bed hungry, but you don't want to go to bed full either, you risk the chance of your body storing it as fat.

Summary:

Clean foods!
Eat small, balanced meals every 2-4 hours.
Lots of water intake.
Cardio in the morning. (Jog, do sprints, etc)
Light weight/resistance training in the afternoon-evening or on days you rest from cardio. (Optional)
Keep an eye on the carbohydrates.
Listen to your body.
Rest.

Peace

typically as the day winds down, your metabolism slows down... so thats why they say not to eat when hell late, cuz pretty much u stuff your face with monster tacos or whatever the fuck at 2 am, your body isn't going to burn that crap as fast.... feel me?

For people who dont wanna do the weight loss CURE, there's a simple solution. Simply quit eating the poison ass foods in the supermarket, shop at a health food store like Whole Foods or Trader Joe's. Cus first thing's first...the food produced by major companies are full of steroids, antibiotics, nitrites and chemicals that get u fat and physically addicted to the food like dope. With that said...here are my tips, and I dropped 100 lbs.
- Drink a glass of pure water immediately after waking up because this gets the body's cleansing started. Drink a half to a whole gallon throughout the day. This helps flush toxins out your body and keep your cells from dehydrating.
- Eat a Big Breakfast, anything u want as long as it's organic
- Eat organic apples and grapefruits all throughout the day. U would do this in between meals as a snack ideally. Organic Grapefruits have an enzyme in them that burns fat as a fast rate.
- Eat a big salad with lunch and dinner with all organic ingredients. U can eat whatever u want for lunch and dinner, u can have fried chicken and a bucket of ice cream. But if u eat a salad, youre good. What the salad does is provide extra fiber to your meal so that it digests right.
- Take a tablespoon of raw, organic apple cider vinegar before every meal.
- If u fry foods, fry them in raw, organic extra virgin coconut oil. This oil helps to maintain weight and lose it. It also helps clean your digestive system.
- Cleanse your body. Your colon, your liver and also do a candida cleanse. U might not know it but u can have like 30 lbs. stuck in your colon. If you dont do a candida yeast cleanse, then you'll keep havin food cravings. Candida yeast is an overgrowth in the intestine that feeds off of dairy products such as cake, sugar, cheese, bread, pasta, etc. and it cause u to crave these things. That has to be eliminated. Plus doing these cleanses will increase your metabolism.
- Walk an hour a day. This lowers your body's weight set point. As simple as it may sound, this is why naturally thin people stay so thin, cus they walk a lot.
- ABSOLUTELY NO FAST FOOD! This is 100% guaranteed to make you FAT! The food is designed to get u fat and addicted to it. The food literally is poison. It also causes diseases like diabetics, high blood pressure, etc. Even McDonald's has a nickname for people who eat there 3 or more times a week, they call them "heavy users."
- No artificial sweeteners. Aspartame, Sucrolos, Splenda, all those things are no good. Theyre poisons. They cause a great deal of damage to the body and are addicting. Theyre man-made sweeteners. If u have to use a sweetener, use Raw Organic Cane Juice or Stevia.
- Drink Wu-Long Tea. Also known as Oolong Tea. This tea is a fat burner and an anti-aging tea. Works real good. Organic Green Tea is a good tea too.
- Add Hot Peppers or Salsa to your food. This is another way to increase your metabolism. When food is extra spicy, it burns fat in your body and gets ya metabolism pumping. So adding spices will help a lot, they gotta be organic. Ginger and Cinnamon are also spices.
- Take Digestive Enzymes. The body most likely doesnt have enough digestive enzymes of it's own because most of the food we eat are stripped of enzymes.

....it's more tips than this that could help, but for right now, thats all Ima share because those are the most important.
