You are five two 115 pounds and 15 years old you swim 3 and a half hours a day for your swim team practice how many calories should you consume to maintain your body weight?

If you've lost 95 pounds in 10 months how can you lose the unsightly belly fat if workouts or starving have not helped and you're 45?

Answer

Congratulations on losing 95 pounds!

At 45 yrs old you will not be able to get rid of the belly fat as quick as a 25 yr old. 10 months is not really all that long. Physically the belly and the bum are the last places we lose the fat from.

Make sure you are eating healthy - and not "starving" yourself. If you suddenly stop eating food, your body's natural response is that it thinks you are in a famine and automatically stores every single calorie it can find. It can do this by slowing your digestion to ensure all vitamins and calories are absorbed. Eating small amounts frequently ensures that this doesn't happen.

You also need to focus on your stomach muscles. General exercise ensures that you lose weight. Then you need to "tone" the problematic part of your body. Exercises such as sit-ups will focus on strengthening that particular part.

How many times a week should you go to the gym to tone up?

you should got o the gym one or two times aweek depending on how athletic you are, don't overdue your exercises.

Is eating 1200 calories per day the way to lose weight and do carbs really matter?

  • Carbs matter in that if you eat too many, especially too many high GI carbs, you will become hyperinsulinaemic and put on weight. 1200 calories per day is very low and unnecessary unless you want to starve yourself at the same time. As long as you keep the glycaemic load of your diet low enough, then you should begin to lose any excess weight. If not then try cutting back carbs even further, or reducing daily intake by approx 250 calories.
  • There are good carbs and there are bad carbs. Good carbohydrates are unprocessed and in their natural state such as in vegetables and fruit. Bad carbs are things made with enriched flour, white bread, most pastas and most snack foods. Sugars and corn syrup are bad carbs too. Your body cannot break these carbs down as easy and use them for energy. Watch sodium as well. It takes a little bit to get use to not seasoning everything with salt, but too much sodium will not allow you to lose weight.
  • At 1200 calories and lower per day your body starts to lose muscle and store any calories it can since your body believes it is starving. Focus on lean proteins (chicken, turkey, fish, lean red meat now and then), good carbs for energy, a little fruit for glucose, and a good amount of vegetables spread out throughout the day (1500-2000 calories). You will lose weight eating 2000 calories a day with the right food.

ADDITION BY REEMAMALIK: NO... Fruit does not contain a lot of glucose but fructose... and sucrose... glucose comes mainly from wheats like rice and grains... so you do need to eat rice and grains... the Chinese people are the slimmest yet they survive on rice...so no...rice is not bad at all... the sugar in tropical fruits is just as bad as refined sugar so limit intake of any fruits that you don't eat with the skin... such as melons, mangos, bananas, etc... apples and any other fruits you consume with the skin usually contain glucose which is definitely better than fructose containing tropical fruits... so cherries, grapes and apples are the best fruits to eat if you crave something sweet...

Do Christians meditate?

Of course we do. I was taught to pray at night and in the morning, be still, calm and listen. It's like when you pray, you're calling God. When one meditates, it's God calling us back. No, God doesn't literally speak out loud but He will put people, places & thoughts in our minds. Hope this helped and God Bless you.

Why isn't slash and burn agriculture effective in the long run?

Barely one step above the economics of the apes, slash and burn agriculture requires unlimited territory and generations of undisturbed time. It may be argued that the Manned Space Program, with its monkey dream taking Capitalism to the stars from an exhausted Earth, is a feature of slash and burn on a global scale.

It is, because if you cut down the trees, you are providing less oxygen, and if we keep doing this, our air will be really dirty. If we keep farming the same plot of land, eventually the ground looses it's nutrients and isn't able to bear crops again. Then it usually dries up and blows away, a process called desertification. In short, slash and burn agriculture causes loss of fertile farming land.
