How can you lose weight without getting a muscle-y look?

Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

I am 16 and am just starting to work out to lose weight. I run and play tennis–which I just started playing and therefore dont get an actual workout out of! Can you guys tell me what kind of excercises you need to do, what kind of food you need to eat, etc to lose weight but not build up a lot of muscle? Any tips will be welcome!!

Metformin for Insulin Resistance in achieving weight loss: How long does it take to work?

Friday, October 2nd, 2009

I have been diagnosed with insulin resistance and have been prescribed 2500 mg metformin daily.

Many ppl with PCOS, metabolic syndrome, or insulin resistance lose weight bc their insulin isnt working properly without the aid of metformin or the like. I have been on it for over a week and have not lost any weight.

I was wondering if anyone has experienced weight loss after a couple weeks, rather than immediately.

How do you get your cat to gain weight?

Thursday, October 1st, 2009

My cat is 14 years old. He has been losing weight. Took him to the vet and they put him on steroids and gall bladder medicines that he will be taking for the rest of his life. They also gave him perscription food that he refuses to eat. I left it out for him for 3 days and he refused to eat it. I got to the point that i didnt care what he ate just as long as he was eating. Does any one have any other suggestions?

How has the normal weight range shifted in recent years?

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009

Let’s say weight x through y was the recommended weight for a certain height ten, or twenty or thirty years ago. Recently it has changed, and keeps increasing, as obesity increases. It’s like because obesity is so widespread we have to normalize it. Does anyone know what the actual recommended numbers used to be, or where I can find this info?

How can I lose weight in a healthy way?

Thursday, September 17th, 2009

I want to lose the weight fast for the summer and I know the quickest way is to go on the low-carb, high-protein diet like the South Beach or Atkins Diet. The problem: All that protein makes my cholesterol level rise up (High cholesterol runs in the family). Another problem is that I sometimes want to eat sweet things but no fruits are allowed on the low-carb diets. How can I lose weight in a healthy way?
