    omitting the fact that you should be doing this for yourself and not your bf, along with the fact that your bf shouldnt be telling you to lose weight (at least not in the way you've stated), go through some of these links; http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/833026-important-posts-to-read?hl=important+posts&page=1

    based of your 4 posts asking for help in the past hour you dont have much base knowledge on nutrition and exercise, and we cant just tell you exactly what to do, you need to figure alot of it out on your own

    you need to do some serious reading and at least get a good base knowledge of how weight loss works. No one here is going to tell you what to do or how to do it, that's up to you.

    And read:

    Why don't we start simple, what is your height and weight. Do you have a workout routine?

    So you are a healthy weight, in fact, you are in the dead middle. But if you want to lower your body fat, I would suggest a moderate deficit (no more than 1 lb per week) and a workout routine that would focus on weight training with some cardio for overall health.

    So the question comes down to, how long per day do you want to workout, do you have any medical conditions. I suspect you will be around 1700-2100 calories per day but we need more information before we an suggest anything.


    BTW, I am going to delete your belly fat thread as this thread can address that topic as well.

    you dont need to lose weight.. you probably just need to reduce your bodyfat a bit... small deficit and some strength/resistance trainng.

    i dont know my body fat percentage but i think its high i can workout 1 hour

    If you exercise 5-6 days a week, you should be eating around 1800 calories per day with around 40% carbs, 30% protein and 30% fats. Custom profiles can be set up here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/account/my_goals . I also generally recommend getting 30-50g of fiber a day to good health and getting adequate nutrients and vitamins.

    The biggest thing you should do is get a good food scale (less than $20 on amazon - i personally like my Ozeri), log every day and be as accurate as possible.

    Based on your current knowledge, I would recommend picking up the new rules of lifting for women and follow that book. It helps lay out nutrition and will provide a fixed program to help you develop technique and knowledge of equipment.

    +10, so nice to see someone actually trying to be helpful instead of snarky.

    *peeks around*

    Well, this is awkward. Your ticker showed 55 pounds to lose an hour ago. Now it shows 40, but you are saying that you're 5'5" and 135 pounds? Can we ask what your actual goal weight is and how you came up with it or is that off topic too?

    AND THIS is why i don't believe the that this thread had actually gotten off topic. because

    1. if a person is at a healthy weight and their significant other is pressuring them to lose weight, the topic is actually the relationship, not the best way to become underweight.

    and

    2. asking questions about anomalies in the OP is the best way to figure out if you just stepped into a troll thread

    You do realize that is very dangerous and unhealthy right? And no one on this board will support an unhealthy lifestyle like that. If you have an eating disorder or body image disorder, i would highly suggest you see a doctor.

    For your height and weight you are in the middle of healthy weight and your BF is telling you to lose the weight?? :huh: Yeah dump the boyfriend!!!! :happy:

    Agreed and that would solve the "dead" weight problem.

    Seriously you want to lose 40 lbs and you weigh 135 at 5'5" - wow

    ^this

    It sounds like MFPers once again properly identified and began to address the *real* issues of a thread...

    ...only to have their efforts derailed with the ironic explanation of having gone off-topic.

    OMG, you should lose the boyfriend.

    Losing weight can be as easy or as complicated as you want to make it. After all the thousands of dollars spent on gadgets, all the hours spent counting calories, weighing food and doing math, it still comes down to two things.

    Eat less.

    Move more.

    That's it. You will be bombarded with other things. They're helpful to some. But the fact is that you don't need any of it to lose weight.

    You also don't need a jerk for a boyfriend, but it seems you have one of those. I'd lose him before I lost any weight!!!
