I had way too many pounds in all the wrong places until I checked out acai berry, I understand they say that pills will not work, nevertheless they definitely worked for me, and they have been showcased on the Rachael Ray Show too. There’s a free trial going on at the moment at , try it, what’s the worst that could happen?

you never said how much you weigh right now. really portion control and doing a buttload of cardio at the gym will be a perfect solution for you! and will help you lose as much as you possibly can!!

wow 50 pounds thats a lot, but anywaiiz ima say what i said to ma last question i answered.

A healthy diet for weight loss programs is that which involves all the essential nutrients from all food groups but a diet which is low on fats and calories. This is quite obvious as no one can reduce weight while eating cakes and sweets. However, this does not imply crash diets which leave you weak and depressed but a healthy diet is one which involves slow and steady cut down on fats followed by a simultaneous increase of wholegrain bread, fruits and vegetables so that the body gets healthy nutrients required for a healthy development. Salads without fat toppings are a great way of nourishing your body. In addition, one should replace one’s fizzy drinks with more of water and even fresh juices and whole milk should be replaced with semi-skimmed and eventually fully skimmed milk. Alcohol intake needs to be drastically reduced and finally stopped to put a stop to your bulging belly. Increasing fiber intake in one’s body can provide health benefits along with making our body feel full thereby preventing overeating. Instead of going in for fried and fatty snacks, one should change one’s dietary habits and tastes and include low fat snacks in one’s diet. Having a fruit in between meals can help a person to remain healthy and fit. Thus by making simple yet effective changes in one’s diet, one can combat the problem of weight along with yielding long term health benefits. However, always remember that diet must always be followed by activity and exercise to attain maximum benefits.

So here we GO!

Drink Ice cold water. Okay I know you already know this and you probably already know ice cold water makes your body burn fat to heat the ice cold water back up to body temp, but I keep saying drink water because…
A lot of people still don’t drink enough water. If you want to lose weight fast… Stop wasting your money on ugly fat-weight gainers like coffee, soda, and juices and pick up a magical weight loss drink called water.

Kill your cravings. Eating lots of protein (nuts, jerky, fish, and chicken) raw veggies and water will kill your appetite. I promise you the sooner you get used to eating raw veggies you will stop craving for all the junk foods that made you fat in the first place.

Drink green tea. **** drinking water all the time? Then sip on some green tea to increase your metabolism to burn more fat

Limit carbs. This is really an emergency weight loss trick. If you stop eating carbs (or limit your carbs) you can lose 5 lbs or more real quick by burning up all the stored carbs in your body.
You have about 1 pound of carbs stored in your body and each pound stored in your body has 3-4 lbs of water attached to it. So if you burn up the stored carbs in your body… The 5 lbs of water will burn up with it

Do something in the morning – Wake up and break a sweat for 30min in the morning. I know you **** to exercise but if you do it first thing in the morning guess what…
Your body will ONLY BURN FAT because since you haven’t eaten anything yet… Your body has no choice but to feed off the stored FAT in your body for energy.

Walk for 10 minutes after you eat – Your body burns calories to digest the food you eat and if you walk for 10 minutes after you eat you will increase the amount of calories you burn during digestion and get his… If you eat three times a day you will easily get the 30 minutes of activity you need to lose weight (3 meals x 10 minute walks after each meal).

soz its so long but

Hope it helps =p

don’t look at the number on the scale. Just exercise and eat a well balanced sensible diet that doesn’t starve you. Remember that muscle will weigh more that fat but it’ll make you look leaner. Be smart and be active. p.s. 50 lbs in 5 months is a lot, try 5 lbs in one month, if you hit that, congrats…if you lose more awesome, but small victories will get you to your goals!!!

I recently started taking the acai supplement. I got it at Wal-Mart, but I haven’t been taking it long enough to see the results. I’m hoping for results though. BUT I read in a post that the free trials of the acai berry are a trick. You pay for shipping, but somehow once you sign up you get charged like 80 bucks to your card and it is impossible to get in contact with customer service people to help you stop getting charged. Just get it at Wal-Mart for 8 bucks or order online from Target if you get it. Good luck! OH and drink a lot of water!

well if i knew how much you weight i can help
but yes you can lose that much in five months
in a pound theres 3,500 calories
so you need to consume at least 1,200 calories a day
and burn at least 500 and more….
you can run, play any sports that you enjoy
and eat healthy…all the foods you consume must be healthy
no junk foods and no sodas or juice
just water and milk
and no fry foods, just bake grill or broil
and eat lots of vegetables and fruits with all your meals so you can be more full…
