To a very high degree, you should weigh as much as you feel happy with weighing.
As long as you are at a weight where you are healthy, the most important part is that you are HAPPY with your weight… not that you "should be X pounds", but that no matter what you weigh, you are happy with that instead of striving to be a size 2 or something like that
That being said, if you want to lose weight, exercise is a really good (and safe) way to lose weight. In addition to that, I would recommend meeting with a nutritionist or dietitian to see if there is something else that may benefit you more
I’m not overweight, but i’m really trying to cut down on the fat and lose a couple (hopefully more) pounds or so.
Hi Ashley! Because you’re not overweight, you don’t have to enroll to any weight loss programs out there. And I am pretty sure you don’t want to sweat, like me! I don’t want strenuous exercise, i’m too busy and sometimes i’m too lazy.
Here’s what I do daily, very very simple, to keep me from stocking on fats (despite the fact that I have a big appetite! ahaha)
1. I drink water before I eat. This way I feel full so I eat less. Plus, I don’t drink water right after meal This makes me feel bloated. I wait for around 30 mins before I drink water.
2. I don’t sit down right away after meals. I feel like my belly is getting bigger every time I do that since it’s very full
3. I stay away from soda and iced teas. I’d rather drink fresh fruit juice (not the ones in can) and/or water
4. When I feel like reading a book while lying in bed, I lie 90 degrees from the wall with my feet and legs landing on the wall. They say it helps lessen belly fats
5. When I feel like dancing, I dance! It’s like an exercise but I’m enjoying it
6. I play basketball in arcades. Sometimes when I feel like it, I play basketball in arcades. It’s fun and exciting!
These are just simple tips. Hope it helps!
