drop workout routines for trying to lose weight please! for reference: 19f, 5’1, 135 lb

Eating is big thing for that

Anonymous 1d

A calorie deficit is the best way to lose weight. That factors in how many calories your body burns at rest, how many cals you lose with activity, and how many calories you consume. I am taller than you, but used to have a similar-ish BMI. I didn’t feel like I needed to lose too much weight but I lost about 15 lb slowly over time just with eating changes. Please don’t obsess over calories though! I’m not sure if you have this same experience, but I had the habit of over eating (eating until…

Your body type doesn’t matter, yes eat in a deficit but that only counts when you’re actually getting exercise. The best way to lose weight is to walk at a brisk pace for 10k steps every day

And what type of body do you have?

Being more active depending on what u normally do and trying to eat food that is filling. A lot of snacks are high calories but not filling at all

… I felt like if I ate more I would be uncomfortable, instead of simply eating what satisfied me and felt like a sustainable amount of food. I also would eat a lot just due to boredom. Don’t know what to do? Have some snacks. Watching YouTube? Have a snack with that. If you’re the same and it’s difficult to break, switch to having a low calorie 0-20cal drink that you enjoy to sip on instead!

Also just switching out snacks. If you like a certain fruit or vegetable, especially one that is easy to snack on, try to keep that in your house (or see if your parent could keep shopping for it) instead of having snacks. Generally it’ll be lower calorie and also just healthier. I’m a sweet tooth but I limited desert to once a day, not after every meal. If you want chips or a similar snack, that’s okay, but put some in a bowl instead of bringing the whole family size bag with you.

It can be hard to stop or you might not realize how much you’re eating. Don’t make yourself miserable over food. Find lower cal/healthier alternatives that you actually enjoy. Think about moderation. You don’t have to completely cut out ANYTHING. Also while you shouldn’t obsess over calories, be generally aware of them. Be cautious with fast food, because it can have lots of calories without even being that filling. If you like to get coffee, look how many calories can be in a sugary drink. Some

drinks can be like 500. But other drinks that are just as sweet could be about 200. Also, if you’re not into going to the gym that’s okay. Just try to be more active! Like #3 said brisk walks are good, especially if currently you just don’t get a lot of activity in. Choose the stairs instead of an elevator if it’s a reasonable number of floors you have to move up/down. I love bike rides, which is activity. Do things you like, not what makes you miserable. Play outside with your dog if you have

one. Play outside or run around inside with toddlers. If you want to do more cardio, listen to music, a podcast, watch something while you use equipment, etc. An intense diet and exercise regiment is only good while it lasts, and if you hate it, it’s not sustainable.
