Fat help: help! - Help.com

your eating 1200 calories and doing 2 hours of exercise.. your lucky if your burning that off.. Walking gets rd of fat most effectively so do two hours walking.

You’re weight training, muscle weighs more than fat, I bet you are slimmer but your weight hasn’t changed as what you’re losing in fat is just being converted into muscle.

Heres a post i made advising people on how to lose weight. please read it.

Weights are good for muscle gain you numpty. Walking uses up fat deposits as an energy source. read my link http://help.com/post/259252-how-to-lo…

So…like an atkins diet and walking would be good for me? Could I still keep jump roping instead, because I read that was high intensity and good for burning calories, I don’t know about its ability to burn fat however…I don’t understand so much of this. But, how much carb should I eat a day then? Can I still eat my veggies and fruits? I’m a veggie, so replacing high carbs with meats won’t work for me. how long will it take to lose weight? i just need to have an idea…so I don’t get depressed and quit after let’s say a 5 week period :)
Thanks for all of everyone’s advice

Low intensity burns fat. fat and calories are not the same thing lol

Three form s of energy food. Stored(fat) and mineral(protein)

High intensity exercise uses food energy and low intensity uses stored(fat) as energy. protein is only used if no other energy source is available. So walking burns off fat much faster and more efficiently than anything else and means you don’t have to go on a diet so long as you walk say five miles a day. Walk to the next bus top if your early for your bus, get off a couple of stops early it all adds up.

1200 carbs sounds good stick to that, but instead of burning calories you want to directly target fat! so walking or low intensity exercise like yoga or step aerobics are best for you.

and my mate weighed about 24 stones, he lost two stones in 4 months just walking home from university and stopping drinking fizzy juice. the smaller you are the less weight you will lose, give it a couple of months till you see a difference. you will feel the difference first though.

Its no problem, I’m a football coach so I know how to keep fit ^^ it’s just becuase I know scientifically how your body works that I can tell you the best way to do it ^^ eat what your eating, if its mainly veg thats great ^^ and do a lot more walking. I eat like a farm animal and drink like a fish but i walk everywhere and so i don’t put on much if any fat. just walk more and more ok.
