I want to lose 5 pounds? How long will it take (healthy) and tips?
I’m not unhappy with my body, but I’m not completely happy with it either. I feel like if I just 5 pounds of my little extra baby fat and tone up my tummy I will have the body I’ve always wanted.
How can I lose five pounds (meal plans/exercise, etc.) and how long will it take in a healthy way? Also, I currently play basketball so restricting calories is not a good idea for me, but I don’t know how I can lose weight without doing that.
The key to losing weight is to consume less calories than you burn off in exercize. You can eat small amounts of food throughout the day instead of a full meal all at once. If you do this correctly you might loose a few pounds a week. You should do this for 2 weeks to lose at least 5 pounds.
Just by losing 5 pounds won't give you the body you want or looking for. You just have to work out to gain more muscle and lose the fat. Eat healthier and don't eat any fast foods.

ps eating a big breakfast can help you lose weight! suprising, i know, but it helps you to stop over eating during lunch time/dinner
also keep dinner before 6:30

Weight loss is determined by simple calories in versus calories out. Your body needs a minimum number of calories per day to function, this is your BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate). What he should have said was the amount of calories consumed per day, minus your BMR (which for an average 160lbs male could be around 1700-1900) minus the amount of calories lost due to exercise = weight loss (or gain)
There are BMR calculators on the net, search in google.
in my honest opinion it shouldn't take more than a month if you are consistent in eating healthy foods and are exercising regularly.

you can still re arrange things, swap foods, its all about balancing calories intake with energy out they say you should aim to loose 1-2 pounds a week, you can loose 5 pounds in a week but not really easy or advisable, just dont stress,and dont use sports as an excuse to eat the wrong foods or over eat
