Well this is what I do: 100 sit ups and 50 push ups a day and then walking. Your better off starting slow though, try like 20 sit ups and 10 push ups and then when you can do them easily add another 10 more onto it. When your walking walk for a mile and then add another half mile. Oh and try taking the stairs aswell! =P
A good tip is to try listening to your favourite music, by the time you listen to a whole album you will have walked for about an hour.

This should help a little bit: http://exercise.about.com/od/exerciseforbeginners/Exercise_for_Beginners.htm
The main points are pretty much this.
-You need to eat a healthy, balanced diet. Everyday.
-You need to exercise regularly. This involves basic cardio workouts and some light muscle strengthening exercises. Usually 3-5 days a week for about 30-45 minutes.
-Don't overwork yourself. Allow your muscles to rest.
-Good sleep patterns help as well (though I'm being a bit of a hypocrite by telling you this one).
Good luck.

She beat me to it. All the people who have just said do sit ups are talking complete bollocks :) (pardon my french). Loosing weight is simple, all you have to do is make sure that your callory out take exeeds your intake. You can do this by trying to cut out the unhealthy foods in your diet, try and eat less junk, less food that you know contains a lot of fat. Try and eat more fruit and vegtables instead of chocolate bars. And lastly, but not least try and gradually increase the amount of exercise you do.

i agree.
cardio is the way to go, and then strength training.
jogging is great (but i'm biased)
eating nutritiously works wonders. so does cutting out snacking.

I'd recommend the cross-trainer because it burns a lot of calories but isn't that challenging. I usually do 20 minutes on the treadmill, 30 minutes on the cross trainer and 45 minutes on the exercise bike. Then 30 wall push ups, 60 sit ups, 30 push ups and 20 squats. Because squats are a bitch.

I sit there and think about how thin I'd liek to be, and hope that when I wake up the next day it will have happened. It hasn't yet. But I'm still hoping.
Seriously tho, jus as others have said, do regular exercise liek walking places ratehr than using transport when it isn't necessary and don't stuff your face with fast/fatty food. Ya'll be right.
Or just be happy how you are, that's always an option.

Eating nothing actually makes you gain weight.
Because your body feeds of the fat you have.
Anorexic people don't eat nothing. they just exercise loads and don't eat enough.
It's a stupid rumor that not eating makes you thinner.

eating nothing does make you lose weight but only short term. gemsk's right that it feeds off the fat in your body but that's just to keep you alive. anorexic people have to eat to stay alive, if they didn't they'd die after 3 or 4 days. most usually go for bites of vegetables like celery, or lettuce, maybe 2 or 3 bites a day. They also usually drink stuff liek diet coke to keep them alert, and smoke more to keep them from eating.
This goes wrong when the person starts to eat again as the body goes into panic mode, and stores all the food as fat in case you decide to starve yourself again so it will have more fat to live off. so basically you've made yourself a whole lot uglier for absolutely no reason and now you're just spotty and depressed with a load of excess fat. No thanks :)

Believe me it is not worth it, when I was quite bad I had hairy arms and my hair was really thin, I looked disgusting, and I used to wake up in the morning and I was blind for like 10 minutes. And then as soon as I'd cave in and binge, I'd literally gain about 10 pounds just by eating a bowl of pasta.

I'd have to disagree, for six months I only did sit-ups/crunches and pushups every day, and went from 140 pounds to ~128 pounds, no noticable change in diet or anything else. Although not much of a weight change for six months, I went from being completely unfit (no noticable abdominal muscles or anything else really) to fairly noticable and more toned.

I'd agree that yeah, a more involved workout helps, but doing sit-ups and push-ups are not useless as I've learned first hand.

I think you have proven they are useless, it took you 6 months to lose 12lbs.

Hopefully you can read.
Although not much of a weight change for six months, I went from being completely unfit (no noticable abdominal muscles or anything else really) to fairly noticable and more toned.
I'm just saying, I lost a few pounds but more importantly toned my body, and losing weight doesn't do much for how your body looks unless you tone it right - it was a two in one, I toned and lost some weight.
I wouldn't say, if you wanted to lose weight, only do sit-ups and push-ups, but I'm saying they make a difference nonetheless - which is what I was arguing in the first place.
Besides, losing 12 pounds from a 10 minute - if that - workout a day is definitely something, it means I'm not gaining weight either.

June 18th '07, 07:14 AM
12 pounds is hardly anything to brag about, or try and refute with, especially if it took 6 months to do it :\, I must say she is still right. All you did was backup her theory because you did only situps and pushups for 6 months and only lost 12lbs and didn't really gain anything but basic tone. Not really worth it, and well to be quite frank like her, its worthless.
And about the reading part, pretty funny for a guy who took 6 months to build up baby muscle.
fallenondefeat
June 18th '07, 07:21 AM
aha again, it was in '04 meaning I was 14 years old
('04)
would still help if you read ;)
obviously at such a young age, losing weight is harder (especially when since weighed 140 pounds at 5'7"), and I didn't have much to work off. Again, I would have been fine if such a small workout kept me from gaining weight, but I ended up losing a few.
Also, 6 months is an estimate; I started after a lesson in health mid school (I remember, it was the beginning of our second semester), so a closer estimate would be 4.5 months or so. Still, 12 pounds in 4.5 months is hardly anything to brag about, likewise please don't put words in my mouth as I never bragged that I had lost it, I was simply saying that it isn't completely inefficient. And I don't know if you understand, but I wasn't aiming to lose weight alone, I wanted to tone my body more which it did fine.. especially at 14 years of age.

June 18th '07, 07:53 AM
Again it would help if you weren't stupid.
You are wrong, and actually, well, just to put it nicely, wrong, younger people have a (higher / faster) metabolism, which intern would mean YOU LOSE WEIGHT FASTER. :\, shit, you tell me to learn to read but obviously you don't listen in Physical Education.
6 months is an estimate
"Give or take 2 to 2 and a half months because I'm bad at math and have a really bad memory, obviously at such a young age remembering things is a lot harder" :>
Truth be told, you could have lost that weight and built that tone in a month.
4.5 months
Thats an awful long overshot on time frames :\ especially for something that just happened 3 years ago, if you forget things that easily, time to start building up tone in your brain.
I never bragged that I had lost it
Posting that pic, turned into a brag session pretty much, you could have proved it without a pic, why? Because the pic doesn't do much to prove your case, we have no way to prove that pictures legitamacy since it has no XMP data, so dates could be wrong, and it resides on Tinypic.
I was simply saying that it isn't completely inefficient
No, you proved it was completely inefficiant and while you were at it, you backed up her case because it took you between "4.5 to 6 months". The op wanted to lose weight not build tone, "you should learn to read", :>, as dully paraphrased, and the second op who replied "its worthless" was right and you backed her up in proving that she was right :>, why? Because 1.) The op wanted to lose weight and 2.) You said it took you between "4.5 and 6" months to lose 12 lbs.
On another noteIll keep track of my sisters cardio, so far in a week, just running a treadmill for 10 minutes a day she has lost 5lbs. Next week she starts a 15 minute session which will involve situps, well to be technically correct, crunches. Shes only 15 though so it might take her 6 months to loose the other 7 pounds and catch up because its harder for young people to loose weight.

I apologize for how I worded it, I meant to put more emphasis on the fact that I didn't have much to lose in the first place; it would be easier for an overweight person to lose more weight than it was for me.
I fail to see how I'm stupid in comparison as you said this
wrong, and actually, well, just to put it nicely, wrong
aha, sorry but lack of known synonyms for "wrong" makes that statement look silly.
Anywho, I meant that, at such a young age, it's harder to be more physically toned that it would be at an older age, I didn't mean that it was harder to lose weight.
But in response:
"Give or take 2 to 2 and a half months because I'm bad at math and have a really bad memory, obviously at such a young age remembering things is a lot harder" :>
Actually, 4.5 months is only 1.5 months off of 6 months, doesn't quite look like I'm the one bad at math here, sir.
Truth be told, you could have lost that weight and built that tone in a month.
Actually, you don't know what I looked like before so I don't know how you can make that judgement, what I quoted above hopefully isn't a universal rule that you apply to everyone, "It shall take one month for you to become toned" etc. ;)
especially for something that just happened 3 years ago, if you forget things that easily, time to start building up tone in your brain.
Uh, yeah, I'm sorry that remembering a small statistic that did happen three years ago automatically means I have a bad memory; obviously upon thinking about it further, I realized that it was off. Initially posting it, the estimation didn't really matter, I didn't put too much thought into a simple post on the internet, but when argued about, I put more stress onto it. I don't see how that doesn't make sense to you.

No, although it's quite flattering that you thought I was bragging ;) I was providing visual aid, no big deal. I didn't put arrows or flashing lights around my picture, I wasn't trying to impress anyone. I was just showing that yeah, it worked and I'm showing you that it had some results. Honestly you're taking things too seriously, I don't know who else would care about the XMP data or dating of the picture, it's a matter of trust and if you don't trust me that it was taken when I say it was, again, it's no big deal. It's an online forum, relax.

Again, I wasn't replying directly to the op, I was replying to the poster that stated that sit-ups and push-ups are useless without cardio. Never did I argue that cardio wouldn't help - as I know it would significantly; all I'm saying is that it does help to just do the sit-ups and push-ups in a workout routine. As small of a statistic you think 12 pounds is, it is still a statistic obviously meaning there are results. So no, I'm not wrong :)
Going along with your mockery towards me of 'toning ____', you should tone down your smart-ass remarks and put some backup into your posts ;)

Looks like we have the next Stewie Griffen here. erroneous, fallacious, false, inaccurate, incorrect, mistaken, off, unsound, untrue. Would you like some more I can certainly keep on going? While I am no grammar expert here I can certainly come up with some words :> I was trying to be nice.

Rather far comparison in being off, however that aside, you are still false, considering my sister yet again, who is working on cardio is consistantly bragging about her tone, she even loves to brag about her calves, not to mention the countless football and American Football (aka American Rugby) players that are between the ages of 14 and 17 that brag about theirs.
Actually, 4.5 months is only 1.5 months off of 6 months, doesn't quite look like I'm the one bad at math here, sir.
have to pull out your calculator for that? Still better then the math you seemd to calculate :\

If you lost 12lbs and became toned and you listed your weight as above, I can pretty much guess dumb ass, I refer you to read your original refute.

I don't see how that doesn't make sense to you.
It matters a lot, I can remember Maria (my babysitter) from when I was 3 and I can remember where she lived, what her house looked like, what she often cooked us for lunch, what she looked like, I can remember the mole on her face and I can remember a whole lot more, including the first client I ever had, every clients name since the day I first opened my business, every teacher through school, most of the friends I had that I didn't intentionally want to forget about, what year I moved to Kansas and how long it took me to move, as well as the the time it took me to find a house here.

"Its an online forum relax" the internet and forums are VERY real, I am proof of that since I make VERY much money from it :>, personally based on the fact that you would imply somebody trust you after stating that its an online forum relax clearly proves that you could be lying. Thats the same thing the last client who ran off with $1500 of mine, its about trust, trust me, Ill pay you when your done with the work, I can't afford the down payment right now :\. I obviously care about XMP data because they prove timelines and ownership, most cameras, they put in XMP data. A judge in court, or if this was a real debate, timelines and established proof is what they call, burden of proof. You, have none.

I would hope you know how to read, who would be the secondary op? Or the Second op? Who was replying to another OP who was replying to THEE op? I figured you would have caught that, all in all they were replying to the OP wanting to lose weight, therefore, in total essence, you are wrong. Why? Because the original post BY HER was intended to supliment a post about losing weight. Technically over a 6 month period 12 lbs would NOT be a statistic because this is weight you could lose by eating right (of which I would hope the world does) and by taking the steps instead of the elevator and walking more instead of driving.

Okay, I've been involved with fitness and physical strength for three years, and I know the gist of the basics of them. Losing weight and toning your body are completely different aspects in fitness, although both are very important. Losing weight isn't good in every case, at the moment I'm trying to gain to increase muscle mass and other reasons, but that's beside the original point in this thread. At the time, I was looking to tone my body, that was my original purpose. I don't know how many times I can say it to make some sort of impact on you, but I wasn't initially looking to lose weight, it was more of a plus, a bonus.
Back on track, you'd be suprised what a difference losing 12 pounds was, and I wish I had before pictures to show you, I don't know what else to say than trust me as I've experienced it first hand, but I see there's a problem with you doing that.
"Its an online forum relax" the internet and forums are VERY real,

No it wouldn't but you can assume it does all you want. If you didn't mean anything against me you wouldn't have shot off at the mouth, a lot of people try to pull that, it doesn't really work, for every action, there must be a reaction and reactions count as "something against you" so it was very well intended to be something against me. ;)

Calculation only involves adding and subtracting now? And I don't know about you, but to me, EVERYTHING is important, especially the small details.

I don't know how to break it to you, but I am trying to IMPLY that your response was not neccessary simply because it was off topic to begin with. While the original topic was about loosing weight and every person in here tried posting about loosing weight, you posted about gaining tone and that you "lost" weight during the cause.
Everybody knows they are different aspects, speaking as so, why did you bother to post about toning then when the topic was about LOSING WEIGHT not TONING MUSCLE?

I'm not really taking it extremely as you assume I am, while I know a lot of people assume I know what I'm talking about all the time and a lot of people think I take everything extremely, I don't, it seems to me a lot of people blow things off to much. "Fuck it like attitudes" don't make people rich. Funny thing is I have seen peoples careers destroyed by a single post in a "teenage forum like this", I have also seen kids decieved by lies on "teenage forums like this" and I have seen people proven to lie on "teenage forums like this".

I think you took me saying "fuck off" in a smartass way wrong :>, besides, I'm trying to tone my ass muscle, that is why I sit in a chair all day and program after all, that aside, how many ass crunchs do I need to do daily to get some bad "ass" tone :>, either way, I wish to tone my smartass remarks as well as you tone your body. Plus, I think my ass needs to lose weight, just my ass though, how can I go about achieving this while toning it?

Hopefully you can read.
I'm just saying, I lost a few pounds but more importantly toned my body, and losing weight doesn't do much for how your body looks unless you tone it right - it was a two in one, I toned and lost some weight.
I wouldn't say, if you wanted to lose weight, only do sit-ups and push-ups, but I'm saying they make a difference nonetheless - which is what I was arguing in the first place.
Besides, losing 12 pounds from a 10 minute - if that - workout a day is definitely something, it means I'm not gaining weight either.
If you did a 10 minute workout a day with the intention of toning up that is pretty fucking lazy, to be honest. You don't look that toned and it proven that a cardio workout is necessary if you want good results. There are many other reasons why you could have lost 12 lbs in such a long time period, seeing as you are young and your body is still changing.

lol is all I can really say; my entire life wasn't revolving around toning my body, I was really busy in that year and a small 10 minute workout was easier to fit in and be sure to complete that a longer one. I wanted to keep it simple and I wasn't trying anything drastic, I wasn't completely bothered with myself or anything, I just wanted to lose a little weight and gain some muscle. And honestly (although not completely related) if I would have lost more than 12 pounds, I would have been ranked as having a malnutrition-based diet (don't know if that works in that context, lol); it would have been very unhealthy.
Look, bottom line to what I'm saying is that yeah, it makes a difference; I don't care how small you think the fucking difference is, it is a difference nonetheless which is all I was trying to state initially.
Put into example (not the best, I'll admit), think about a war, if some country loses 10 soldiers out of 500 in battle, it's not a large portion or loss although still a statistic and those 10 soldiers are well, dead. It doesn't mean that the country came out scottfree, they still lost soldiers. In my case, I don't really mind if you think I look toned or not, I looked a hell of a lot better than I did before and I don't need you to convince me otherwise.
Honestly it doesn't make a difference to me if you would agree or not; and honestly it's common fucking logic; I never proved against myself, that push-ups and sit-ups do nothing without cardio, I only proved that yeah, it actually makes a difference. A small difference, whatever, it's still there. I feel repetitive while saying that and I'm sorry, it just seems as though you fucking dismiss it everytime :)

I dismiss it because no matter how many times you repeat/try to justify yourself, what you're saying is still bullshit, sorry.

I am the weight-loss queen. I have tried every single form of exercise and diet, you are a lucky fluke evidently, because to my knowledge a 10 minute workout without cardio is most likely to do fuck all.

I'm not dedicated enough to tone my tummy...it's not THAT bad but if a guy decides they don't like me anymore because I'm not toned, then they can stick my ab roller up there crevice :)

Ok, so everyone who said "stop eating" go kill yourself... because that's basically what you've told this girl to do. I just thought I would pay forward the little gyms of advice you're offering.
Ok, there are so many ways to be more active in your daily routines. Find little ways to increase the amount movement in your day. If you work at desk or sit in a classroom all day, it can be hard to do. If you're at an office, walk up and down the stairs during your breaks. Anything you can do to stay active, plus eliminate snacking! If you need an afternoon snack, make sure it's an apple, carrot, or some other kind of fruit. One last thing, DRINK MORE WATER. The human thrust mechanism is so weak that we often confuse thrust for hunger. So, drink more water and it should act as an appetite suppressant. i.e. no more in-between meal snacking.

I had the same problem. And now I just walk a few times a week, I cheer, and just any other little things can help. :)
