Questions & Answers
Q. Question? Does green tea aid with weight loss when drank along with a healthy diet and exercise? If so, how?

Thanks in advance.

A. Best Answer: Yes-green tea helps lower your apetite and quicken your metabolism--I recommend you have a cup when you are feeling snackish. I have at least one cup a day before I have breakfast-It makes me feel wonderful!

Q. Question? If you gain weight on your torso, how severely does this effect the weight gain on your face and neck? and how efficient is weight loss on your face and neck?

A. Best Answer: Depends on your individual body.

Q. Question? Besides weight-loss.

A. Best Answer: there is scientific research/theory? that starchy carbs in grains and sugar keep spiking your insulin level until you become insulin resistant and then since your body can't control the insulin,the insulin causes the body to store more calories as fat. many diseases are thought to be caused by grains and sugars so if you avoid them you decrease your chances of getting those diseases.

Q. Question? i was trying to choose between green tea CLA tablets and alli, when i came across Celebrity slim. does anyone know if this works/is a good fast weight loss roate?

A. Best Answer: If you stick to it, yes. However, it will send you bonkers!

Also, it isn't a healthy way to attain a healthy body.

I have tried every quick fix diet under the sun: Atkins, meal replacement/shake diets, low fat, low calorie, points counting, fat blockers (xenical), osolean powder, , etc etc etc

Yeah, I lost weight on them, but I soon got sick of the diets, long term - it wasn't ideal... Plus, think about it: you want a healthy body? So you should follow a healthy path to achieve this, no?

I started off making small changes to my diet - nothing that shocked my body or deprived me (thus making me crave a "forbidden food").
Eat a few bites less, until you work down to a healthy portion. Eat more vegetables, less sugar and salt. Drink more water and cut back on soda and juice, and: exercise!

If you're a couch potato, just getting into the routine of exercising is a great start. I like to get my exercise done in the morning, that way it's over and done with, wakes me up, and gives me more energy for the day ahead. Even just start doing a 10 min walk 3 times a week... I don't know your fitness level, but just get into the routine of doing it. Every week, do a bit longer, till you're doing 30 - 60 mins. Then start working harder.

Don't push too hard, the idea is to just slowly make changes and you'll barely notice!

Sure, you won't lose weight so fast, but thevweight you lose will staynoff longer.

Please learn from my wasted time on diets etc, thstnlong term, they don't work, and are unhealthy.

Do it for life, not for some event. Don't put down a time frame on your weight loss.

Q. Question? I have been taking a food supplement called 'Fat Metaboliser' for a while now, and wanted to know if anyone out there knew if this is legit.
According to the box, these tablets (you take 2 a day) are supposed to 'speed up your metabolism' so you use up more energy. Some of the ingrediants include Green Tea, Cayenne Pepper, Cellulose, etc.
Anyone know how these things work/ if it's worth it, cos i wanna know if I should keep buying it or if it's my diet and excersise change which is helping me lose weight.
Thanks x

A. Best Answer: Both green tea and cayenne are known to have some metabolism boosting effects, but they are slight and not enough for you to notice a difference really...you're probably wasting your money unless by using the tablets it's also causing you to eat better and exercise more than you would if you weren't taking them, to help make yourself see faster weight loss...

Remember, anything over 3 lbs (loss) per week is considered too fast, and unlikely to stay off long term...

Q. Question? I've heard a lot of negative things about the contraceptive pill, implant and injection such as - weight gain, increased risk of cancer, depression and loss of libido.
I've been using condoms for the whole duration of my relationship with my fiance but we're both getting tired of having to stop and start to get a condom every time we have sex, plus we've had unprotected sex a few times before (luckily with no consequences & we haven't done it since and won't do it again) and there are so many reasons why it feels better.. I can't deny it.
It'd be nice to just enjoy the moment wherever, without worry or fumbling around looking for condoms

So my question is.. Is contraception THAT bad for you?
What is the best form of contraception?
What are you using and what is it like?

A. Best Answer: In my last long-term relationship my partner was allergic to latex and the pill. We stopped using condoms fairly early and stuck with contraceptive foam and then film (VCF), which was much less messy. Spermicide does have a numbing effect on the throat, so generally we would prefer oral activities beforehand or wash after. The film is good for quite a while and that tended to be very beneficial for friskiness. Some clinics recommend combining it with another method (like a diaphragm) for extra protection. Nothing is 100%, even surgery.

Also for myself I've tried and switched to newer polyisoprene condoms and recommend them wholeheartedly for safe sex.

Q. Question? which is better for weight loss and why?

A. Best Answer: Exercise,

Q. Question? so, i want to loose weight, i go to the gym 3-4 times a week, im eating under 1700 calories a day i'd say its healthy like 90% of the time (hey, we all have weaknesses)
in the gym i use the treadmill, bikes, rowing machine and cross trainers. will these just make me put on muscle rather than loose weight, and if so, what machines should i be going on instead?

A. Best Answer: The regiment you listed are good for weight loss and will strength your leg muscles. However, if you are looking to gain muscles in other areas, then you need to supplement with either weight training or some type of resistance training.

What types of exercises and the equipments you should use depends on which muscle groups you are targetting. If it is upper chest region, then bench presses (and all the varieties - incline, decline, flat). If it is the lats, then any type of workout that includes or simulates a pull-up (chin-up).

Since you are already going to the gym, just ask anyone - when they are on a break. You will find that gym rats are very generous with advices - we like to spread the word ;-)

Q. Question? If I burn calories does that mean I'm completely negating them? Like, today I ate 1073 calories today and I burned 903; does that mean it's the same as only eating 170 calories? I also need to lose AT LEAST thirty pounds before Halloween (I'd like to lose forty, but I'm not sure that's possible...) I'm 165 and 5'3. If I eat 1000 calories a day and burn 900 or more from now until Halloween, is it possible to lose that much weight? If not, how much should I burn/eat or what's the formula to calculate that? Thank-you. =)

A. Best Answer: It is possible to loose weight with homeopathic HCG drops and diet. There are thousands of products on the market that can help you lose weight. One product that has been around for 60 years, and made a recent comeback, is HCG drops. The HCG Protocol was created by Dr. Simeon's in the 1950s. The protocol consists of a low-calorie diet paired with the HCG drops, followed by a few weeks of maintenance.The homeopathic HCG drops help reprogram your hypothalamus, which regulates metabolism, as well as instructs your fat cells to release and eliminate stored abnormal fat. From the very first day of the diet, your body begins to release large amounts of abnormal fat very quickly and without hunger. Once the weight has been lost, and the maintenance period is successfully completed, your hypothalamus has reset your metabolism and created a new set point weight.You should go through
