I remember in 8th grade I was 300 lbs. (VERY unhealthy) and signed up for football. The first week I lost 21 pounds! (No one ever believes me, but the scale at a health clinic says otherwise). Wouldn't such a dramatic loss of weight be super unhealthy? My mom tells me now that a proper goal for weight loss per week is about 4 lbs. As of right now, I am very unhealthy once again and I want to lose my weight (and keep it off this time for good) what is a healthy goal for weight loss per week? I would like to lose at least 5 lbs per week. I weigh a bit over 300 lbs, am 17, a bit over 6 foot, and male. Thanks!
How to Eat Chocolate to Lose Weight
Recommended Answer:
Five pounds per week is fine. Twenty one pounds (the first week of a lifestyle change) is not surprising coming off of 300 lbs - so I believe you.Know this though - health and weight is 80% what you put into yourself and 20% activity. DO NOT think that you can fix in the gym what you ruin in the restaurant.Do exercise. Don't try to go from couch potato to olympic athlete in a month. That will not only endanger you, you'll also burn out and quit.Drink lots of water - stay away from sodas, alcohol, juices and energy drinks. Diet sodas are worse for you than the real ones by the way. Stay away from fast foods and processed foods - "Eat the stuff that will spoil if you don't eat it soon after buying it." - apples, not chips.Besides - 17 years old, over 6' tall - you just need to get down to about 225 or 240 and with lifting a little weights, THAT would be pretty great! Besides - muscle burns fat faster than flab does. as you lift weights a little (mixed in with your cardio exercises) you will notice that weight just falls off.Good luck to you!Other Answers:
- When you have a lot to lose you can lose it faster than when you have little to lose. Thus, the old saying about the last 5 to 10 pounds being the hardest to lose. Let's say instead of sweet drinks you drink only water. For a 300 pound'r that could amount to a pound a day. For the 110 pound woman giving up about 180 to 250 calories per day in sweet drinks & with a daily maintenance level of about 1800 calories she just can't lose that much. At 300 pounds you would need closer to 4000 to maintain your weight, & by giving up the 3 or 4 sodas & the numerous other snacks per day amounts to a much bigger calorie deficit.
