in Health and Weight Loss
can anyone tell me the easiest and fastest way to lose weight? I know it's nearly impossible, but I'm still open to anyone's suggestions and advice that helped them? I'm count calories and work out frequently.

    Eat at a caloric deficit and you'll lose. This is a process, it's not "fast".

    This. You didn't put it on quickly and you can't lose it quickly.

    I would say none of it is 'easy' but it can be simple. A quicker way to lose weight, without losing muscle, is to go low carb and even faster, to go so low carb you enter ketosis (eat less than 50g carbs per day) Not recommended if someone has diabetes or any other health problems. Search online for more info advice and warnings. I am 10 days in and 8 pounds down, which is longer than I have made it before. The keys for me are lots of nonstarchy veggies, protein for every meal and snack, keeping it simple, and always packing food and taking water.

    Keep plugging at it and make sure you aren't actually eating more calories than you think and that you aren't thinking you burn more calories exercising than you really are. Keep those two things in check and the weight will fall off. BUT not at exactly .75 lbs. a week! Maybe two weeks nothing, then bam! a couple or three pounds in two days. And don't give up.

    Low carb isn't necessary for weight loss, a calorie deficit is. The majority of the eight pounds you've lost is water weight due to the depletion of glycogen stores from eating low carb. And you'll lose muscle no matter what.

    Fastest way is

    1. fill in your stats here on the site.
    2. weigh all your food on a food scale and log it here everyday and stick around your daily calorie allowance.
    3. keep doing this and start now

    And that is the fastest way to lose.....

    Eat less calories than you burn and you will lose weight. That's it. There is not easy way or quick fix. :)

    Eat at a deficit. Get a food scale to be sure your actually at a deficit.

    Weigh everything you consume

    Log it Here accurately

    Stop worrying about fast results .

    Great advise! I started a little over a week ago and have gone from 173 to 162 and I feel great!

    No, low carb is not a magic diet that will make you lose weight fast. Carbs hold water, stop eating the carbs and you lose water weight. Eat carbs again and you gain the water weight back. That has nothing to do with actual fat loss.

    You will not lose weight on a low carb diet, or any diet, unless you eat at a calorie deficit.
