How to LOSE weight?
First, determine from the information below, what your weight should be. Then set yourself goals of a week, 2 weeks, a month, 3 months, 6 months and a year. As you see yourself meeting your goals it becomes easier. Remember, you didn’t gain your weight overnight so don’t expect to lose if overnight. Plus, weight lost slowly is more likely to stay off than weight lost in a hurry.
BMI (Body Mass Index) is a measurement of body fat based on height and weight that applies to both men and women between the ages of 18 and 65 years.
BMI Classification
18.5 or less Underweight
18.5 to 24.99 Normal Weight
25 to 29.99 Overweight
30 to 34.99 Obesity (Class 1)
35 to 39.99 Obesity (Class 2)
40 or greater Morbid Obesity
Check out your BMI at the bmi calculator site below to see where you stand.
bmi calculator:

If you need conversion info, 1 kg = 2.2 pounds and 2.54 cm = 1 inch (12 inches = 1 foot) (1 stone = 14 pounds)

“How can I Lose 1 pound of body weight per week?”
One pound of body fat is equal to about 3500 calories. So to lose 1 pound of weight per week, you need to eat 500 calories/day LESS than you burn.
But it’s not a good idea to lose weight simply by cutting calories. As well as decreasing calories you should increase your daily physical exercise. This helps to burn calories and build more lean tissue which in turn burns more calories.
“What should a minimum calorie intake be?”
As a guide to minimum calorie intake, the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) recommends that calorie levels never drop below 1200 calories per day for women or 1800 calories per day for men. Even these calorie levels are quite low.

Another thing that helps to lose weight is to always eat a good breakfast. That helps to jump start your metabolism which helps start burning calories. Also, try to drink 8 eight ounce glasses of water every day. One before every meal (except breakfast) and before all snacks. That helps curb your appetite which helps reduce caloric intake.

I agree with locka youve gained muscle which weighs more than fat, you probably do look thinner but Its just not showin up on the scales. Try measuring your hips and waist each week this will show you how many inches youve lost rather than pounds! Goodluck with it! xxx
Fruit isn’t very god for you if you eat a lot, try more veggies. but yea, life sucks coming to losing weight. I did excersize (walked 5 milea a day, and ate perfectly right, about 1200 calories,for ONE WHOLE MONTH) And lost one pound. I gave up, and gained like 10 back XD I have like no self confidence now -.- But good job for you!! kepp going!!
dont worry I think you gained muscel and that weights more than fat and sometimes is water weight tooo so that would make you feel heavier and hey by the way I want to know what type of exercises your personal trainer shows you because I go to a gym too to work out but I dont see a personal trainer, and I really want to lose weight but I dont know if they help you in diets and in some certain exercises?? FUn mail me or commeent me please, I want to know
