What are ways that I can lose weight in a month's time, without the aid of dietary supplements?

I need to know ways that I can lose weight in a month's time, without the aid of dietary supplements. Ways other than just exercise and cutting back on or stopping certain foods. I weigh 215 lbs right now, I want to try and get down to 195 before Christmas.

I do exercise, I have cut back on foods nothing has worked. I do not want to resort to dietary supplements or surgery. It could be the fact that I smoke, that's what I have been told. But who knows? All I know is that I have exhausted everything that I can think of.

I was reading this with my boyfriend thinking "no dietary supplements, no reduction in caloric intake, no exercise-- there are no ways left to lose weight" His suggestion- wiring your jaw. I would've suggested bariatic surgery but unless youre shorter than 5'5 with other health problems (like diabetes, high blood pressure) ironically you are not heavy enough for the procedure. Nothing is going to beat the simple math of utilizing more calories than you consume. Best of luck in learning the healthy way to reduce your weight!

Losing weight is a simple equation: if you burn more calories than you eat, the weight will come off. Start off by estimating how many calories you burn each day using the calorie calculator http://straighthealth.com/pages/tools/ca... This will give you an idea of how many calories to eat. Healthy weight loss is 1-2 pounds per week. To lose 1 pound per week you need to create a calorie deficit (burn more than you eat) of 500 calories per day. To lose 2 pounds a week, you have to double the deficit to 1000 calories per day. You can achieve this by eating less, exercising more or a combination of both.

Okay...I only started two Mondays ago and All I do is walk one hour every morning. I wear a calorie counter monitor to loose weight by the numbers. I have already lost one pant size and 10 pounds. I am a woman and have three kids and this is the method I use when I gain weight.. I am now at a size two and everyone is always amazed that I have had three kids. This is what I do below when I throw on a few extra pounds. It always works..No diet pills, no energy drinks..just me walking and getting the water I need. Of course I watch what I eat and the Lean Cuisine meals are great for that since the calories per box are 180 to 380 per box. Just make sure you eat healthy every three to four hours so your body will perform at its max.

Helpful Tips for weight loss:

1)A good way to loose weight is to use a calorie counter watch

Keep to a 1,200 food intake

Add 1,200 plus 3,500 (equals one pound of fat) ...and that is the total amount of calories you need to burn each day. Its actually really easy once you start watching the numbers and it doesn't seem like work or exercise. Its just a matter of changing the way you think about loosing weight.

I use this method when i gain some pounds. The first time I did this I went from 168 to 127

2) Most people do not get enough water in their system. Water is your body's principal chemical component, comprising, on average, 60 percent of your weight. Every system in your body depends on water. For example, water flushes toxins out of vital organs, carries nutrients to your cells and provides a moist environment for ear, nose and throat tissues.

Lack of water can lead to dehydration, a condition that occurs when you don't have enough water in your body to carry out normal functions. To determine if you are getting enough water use this simple formula.. Take your weight, for example 150 pounds and divide by 2. Take your answer which is 75 lbs and change it to ounces, in this case 75 ounces. That is how many ounces of water you need a day. Your body performs mostly on water. If you make sure you get enough water everyday your body will perform at top notch and your body will no longer have the cravings of junk food. You will have a better performing body system to help you work out and feel better thru out your day.

You don't want diet aids (Good), and you don't want to hear about exercise, or cutting back on garbage foods. The diet your looking for doesn't exist.
