That all depends. A person who is looking to not exercise a whole lot will have to eat very healthy, with very little fat, sugar, cholesterol, and salt to lose weight. A person who is looking forward to doing alot or a good amount of exercise can allow more fat, sugar, cholesterol, and salt into their diet to lose weight. But of course, the most effective way to lose weight is to eat very healthy, with small amounts of fat, sugar, cholesterol and salt, and to do a good amount of exercise. ( at least one hour per day, but more is better )
It is possible to lose weight just by eating healthy and not getting exercise, but it is very slow weight loss. If you were to just eat healthy and not get any physical activity whatsoever it will take a very long time to lose even a pound, maybe 2 weeks.
But you don't have to sacrifice alot just to lose weight, it can be fun. There are 7 simple things that you can do to lose weight.
1. Drink 8 glasses of water a day
2. get at least 1 hour of physical activity per day
3. substitute in healthier foods ( example: switch ice creamwith a nice low-fat yogurt)
4. Inconvience yourself. make chores or jobs longer ( example: walk tothe store instead of driving there )
5. Eat More fruits and vegetables
6. Eat more nutritious and healthy foods
7. Eat 5 - 6 small meals a day
healthy weight loss per week should be NO MORE than 2 pounds. if you lose more than 2 pounds you are either-
1. Exercising way too much2. Eating too healthy ( very little calories. Don't eat less than 1300 calories per day because your body will go into starvation mode in which you lose body tissue not fat, which means you're still technically fat )3. Not eating enough4. On a fad diet
Also, you probably heard about diets such as The Atkin's Diet, Southbeach diet, and cabbage soup diet. Don't trythese diets, they simply DON'T work. All the weight you will be losing will be in body tissue ( muscle tissue, organtissue ) and you can seriously hurt yourself. When people starve themselves, eat too little or try fad diets and see weight loss on a scale they assume that it is real weight loss, but this is strictly not so. Real weight lossis eating adequately along with proper exercise to lose no more than 2 pounds a week. now, that is real weight loss.( Also, watch out for weight loss gimmicks and ads, such as the " lose weight while watching t.v.!" crap or "lose weight without exercise!" scam. )
Just start off eating alittle more healthier and engage in physical activity at least 3 to 5 times a week an houra day. Start off slow because starting off with drastic measures can result in failure or disappointment. Good luck!

Can you burn calories while sleeping?
It entirely depends on the individual. - Some people eat more late at night, if they were sleeping they would not have eaten the extra snacks. - A lot of people watch television to relax and sometimes put off sleep to do so. Watching television is very inactive and "mindless" so it burns fewer calories and most people are hungrier because they're not occupied with something. - During sleep, your body is at work repairing cells and numerous others things (which I can't remember right now heh) and it's pretty safe to bet this work burns a fair amount of calories. - Some people are very active when awake and others are not. - Sleeping itself is a fast, hence why breakfast is called break-fast. You don't eat when you sleep and therefore do not increase your caloric intake. - Sleeping itself is good for you, it refreshes your mind and body. There are many benefits to having a good, long rest. Even though some people say they do not need a full 8 hours of sleep and such, they actually do. Some notice the affects of sleep deprivation a lot more than others, but just because you feel okay does not mean you are okay. *** So everyone is different and whether you burn more calories awake or sleeping is up to you to decide.

If you vomit after eating are any of the calories extracted from the food?
I read somewhere that some calories will be absorbed. You have to eliminate the food before it hits the intestinal tract. I'm looking for the same answers. How fast do you need to eliminate the food before any calories are absorbed. Usually within 30 minutes. It's not a good idea to do this. By being bulimic you can have malnutrition and dehydration which can lead to electrolyte imbalances and heart arrhythmias.
