I know I will lose weight faster if I work out and cut calories— but I just don’t want to. However, for the past week I have been eating smaller portions and not snacking, and taking a weight loss supplement pill I got from the vitamin store. When can I expect to see some weight loss?

Hi,I’m a 6ft (183cm) male and weigh around 80-85kg. I go to the gym Mon-Fri after work and do a different muscle group each day. But this is anaerobic exercise, not aerobic. . . so i don’t think it’s really a weight loss type thing haha. If anything it’s weight-gain with muscle. I have a really inactive lifestyle also. I’m a computer technician so i sit on my arse all day. I wake up, get ready for work, drive to work, sit on my arse, finish work, go to the gym for 1-3 hours depending on how fast i get through the days workout with friends, go home and sleep. If i want to lose weight but still gain muscle, how do i do this? Just eat mainly protein but restrict my total calorie intake? Should i do like 1500 calories a day and try and consume a lot of protein so i don’t lose muscle by dieting? I’m not very fat, just want to tone up and get those sexy abs and pecks =)I know i’ve got pecks, i can bench more than my own weight. And i can feel my abs too. . . just can’t see either of these things. It’s said its far easier to lose weight through dieting rather than just raw exercise. Obviously a combo of both is best, but I’m just looking to change my diet since i have a very busy lifestyle, even though most of it is sitting on my arse =PPlease don’t just spam links to sites so i’ll buy your book/self help program stuff, not interested. Legit answers please =)Thanks a lot. Regards.

Rules to Follow – teenage diet planThe teenage weight loss plan makes it clear what to do:Follow Height/Weight Charts to Help Set Goals and Monitor Weight LossEat a Balanced DietLose Weight Mostly by Burning Extra Calories. . . Which Means Exercise!Go to Bed at the same time and Sleep 6-8 Hours Every NightDrink More WaterRules Not to Break – teenage diet planThe teenage weight loss plan clearly outlines things that can ruin your dieting efforts:Never Lose More Than 2 Pounds per WeekNever Lose Weight by Eating Fewer Calories without ExercisingNever Limit or Completely Avoid Eating any Food GroupSay No to Fast Foods (at least most of the time say no)Don’t Fast or Skip Meals — The Best Way to Lose Weight is to Eat 5-6 Meals EverydayDon’t Let Emotions Drive You to EatThe Simple Steps – teenage diet planThere are only four steps to complete when on the teenage weight loss plan:ExerciseThis is in addition to any physical activity you do during school. You need to combine some form of aerobic exercises with resistance training. This is the best thing for growing bodies. Your muscles will become tone and “tight. ” The more tone your muscles are the more you can control your weight and prevent weight gain. Here are some examples:Walk with wrist and ankle weights 4-5 times per week for 45 minutes. Walk up hills as your conditioning improves. Aerobic class with wrist and ankle weights 3-4 times per week for 30-40 minutes. Swimming organized laps 4-5 times per week. Circuit Training with Resistance Bands. Supervised strength building routine using free weights and machines followed by 1-2 mile jogs, 3-4 times per week. Eat a Balanced Diet and Slowly Reduce CaloriesReduce your calories by 5% of your normal caloric intake for two weeks. Then reduce your calories by 10% for one week. End with a 15% reduction in your daily calories for one week. That’s a total of 4 weeks of a reduced calorie diet. Continue exercising and monitor your weight loss. Never lose more than 2 pounds per week. Add calories back to your diet as needed to stay below 2 pounds of weight loss per week. Never try a low Carb diet, low Fat diet, or any diet that severely limits one food group. Go on a Diet HolidayEvery 5th week of dieting, when you’re trying to lose weight, stop the calorie reduction and start eating the amount you normally would, but following a more balanced diet. Continue exercising during the Diet Holiday. Do this for one week and then restart the 4 week calorie reduction plan. Like before, start by reducing your calories by 5% of your normal intake for two weeks, followed by 10% for one week, and then ending with the maximum reduction of 15% for one week. Now repeat the Diet Holiday again. Follow the Diet CycleIn case you didn’t notice, it’s a diet cycle that you’re following. You gradually reduce your calories from 5% to 15% of your normal intake over 4 weeks and then start a one week Diet Holiday. Repeat the process until you reach your ideal weight. That’s it! And, yes, it’s that simple. Tone (and maybe build) your muscles, slowly reduce your calories over 4 weeks eating a balanced diet, and end the cycle with a one week Diet Holiday (but keep exercising). __________________________________________________________Ok How it says Diet Holiday. . .
