Please don’t respond with the typical Just “diet and exercise” stuff.

First off and most important- the largest contributing factor to my weight getting out of control is my asthma. In my kid and teen years my metabolism was higher and with it slowing down coupled with my asthma keeping me from being as active as I would like- I’ve gained about 40lbs too many.

I am 5′ 7″ tall, I have a 35DD bust, broad shoulders,and wide hips. I’ve always been curvy even before I was fat.

I say “fat” because I am sick of sugar coating my bad health.

I’m not 100% sure what a healthy weight for me would be, but I’d be happy at 130. Satisfied at 140. Looking down at the scale this evening brought me to tears because I am at 178 right now. And three months ago, before I started dieting, I weighed 163.

I do not drink soda pop or even juice, coffee, or much tea. When I drink tea it’s a couple times a week, an 8oz serving of green tea. All I drink is water. Maybe a few times weekly, I add a packet of crystal light peach, strawberry, or cherry for flavor.

As for my current failing diet plan, I am strict about waking up and eating a bowl of cereal. Usually raisin bran, Cheerios, or special k.

I usually either have a salad with vinegar and pepper, no cheese or meat, or a ham and cheese sandwich at lunch on wheat bread and fat free mayo.

Dinner is up in the air. We hardly ever eat out fast food. My husband is a Marine and all about diet. Maybe once every couple months after a long day of 4 wheelering or a day long date to the zoo or sea world.

We eat at restaurants about 2 times monthly for dates, but I try to be cautious about what I eat then too. I usually stick to the “weight watchers” portion of the menu and drink unsweetened tea or water with lemon.

When I cook at home- I try to cook good balanced meals. Always some kind of veggie, lower portions of meat. And I don’t eat hamburgers, ever. Generally, I cook chicken or fish. I grill steaks maybe once monthly.

I don’t snack much. If I do- it’s kettle corn, or some raw veggies. I really would rather eat a tomato slice, some celery, or carrots than candy or chips. I haven’t touched a potato chip in months. I did eat a handful of tortilla chips with salsa the last time we went to On The Border though. But no more than probably 10 chips.

I try to make dinner very early, between 5-7. The exception is when my husband works very late. His job is unpredictable. But I don’t eat if it’s within a couple hours of my bedtime.

So I don’t know what I am doing wrong diet wise.

Exercise wise- I am doing virtually nothing. I can’t even walk a half mile in temperate weather without wheezing.

I’ve tried the advare discus, and a few different pills to control my symptoms but m doctor and I are still trying to find something that works well.

The only thing that works is avoiding situations that will set me off- perfume, pet dander, too much exertion, hot weather makes it worse.

I’ve tried walking and lifting weights and it just doesn’t help much. After a few weeks I might drop 3 lbs. But without some result to motivate me I just give up.

My husband is very supportive and never stops telling me how beautiful he thinks I am, but I don’t feel beautiful. I am sick of avoiding mirrors and crying when I do see myself in one.

I just don’t know what to do. And military doctors are so wretched, or at least all of the ones I’ve been sent to. They don’t give a damn about helping their patients. You just get herded through as quickly as possible. My doctor was more than willing to give me ample amounts of prozac for my supposed “depression” problem, but no advice or nutrition guide to help me fix the cause, my lousy weight.

I didn’t even fill the prescription. I **** putting lots of drugs into my body like that- especially ones I don’t think I really need.

I just need some help finding a diet and maybe even exercise routine to help me drop about 40-50 lbs. I’m willing to work for it. Just not put myself in eh hospital with an asthma attack.

Please, any advice or resources would be very greatly appreciated

Yeah, but the problem with the acai berry stuff is that is a scam.

You can buy that at any health food or vitamin store for >$20.00 as opposed to the $80.00< you'll start getting charged monthly.

PLUS- because of my husbands job-we're always exposed to those fads- and I've tried it. All it does is clean your colon out. And without enough of the right kind of exercise it's virtually useless.

How to Gain Muscle

Creating the ideal muscle building diet is arguably the most crucial element in gaining muscle mass. Diet is very important for muscle building as it provides the muscles with the nutrients they need to repair and grow. Further to this, diet is simply the key to a healthy lifestyle in general.

An effective muscle building diet will include a considerable amount of protein. Protein is crucial for building muscle, losing fat, and maintaining overall health of the tissues and organs. As a general guideline, you should be consuming 1 gram of protein for every pound of your body weight. If you are serious about building muscle mass, this should be increased to 1.5 grams. The most protein rich foods include meat, fish and eggs.

Carbohydrates are also a crucial element of the ideal muscle building diet. Carbohydrates supply the body with energy and stamina, allowing you to workout to your potential. Complex carbohydrates such as pasta, potatoes, whole grain breads and rices are excellent ingredients for your diet. This may sound boring at the onset; however there is a plethora of exciting recipes involving such basic food groups.

Fats are another important element in the ideal muscle building diet. Fats provide a secondary energy source to carbohydrates and are crucial for the healthy maintenance of the human body.

As recent awareness campaigns have promoted, there are both ‘good’ and ‘bad’ fats commonly used in foods. Examples of ‘good fats’ or unsaturated fats are olive and flaxseed oil. Examples of ‘bad fats’ of saturated fats are animal lard and butter. An easy way to remember which is which is that unsaturated fats are liquid at room temperature, whilst saturated fast are solid at room temperature.

Fiber is another useful addition in the ideal muscle building diet. Fiber assists your body in ridding itself of impurities- essentially ‘detoxing’. Naturally occurring examples of fiber include whole grains, nuts and seeds. There are also fiber supplements such as Metamucil which will provide and adequate source of fiber on a daily basis.

The final ingredients in the ideal muscle building diet are fruit and vegetables. Vegetables should be consumed in large amounts, whilst fruits should be consumed in moderate amounts. Fruits can significantly increase sugar levels and provide the boy with excess water- these aspects need to be regulated in the diet. Vegetables on the other hand provide the body with essential nutrients and minerals crucial encouraging significant muscle growth.

Conclusion

The most ideal muscle building diet is both balanced and nutritious. This diet can be altered to accommodate the goals you wish to achieve in your workouts. As a general guide it is advisable to avoid large meals and eat five or six small meals a day. Further to this it will be more effective to eat the majority of your protein and carbohydrates in the morning. Diet is the key to unlocking your muscle building success, and creating serious muscle mass faster.

I’m almost 16 and want to build muscle. Just wondering if i’m eating right. At the moment i’m 5′9 and 133 pounds. Usually for breakfast i’ll eat a big bowl of muesli a glass of orange juice a low fat yoghurt and a banana. For lunch i would have a boiled egg and a ham and cheese sandwich. Then for dinner i would usually have chicken or beef with some pasta or vegetables and maybe once a week i would have chips. I eat a lot of fruit throughout the day aswell and about 4-5 pints of water and couple of glasses of milk. I would drink the odd can of coke and have a bar of chocolate maybe twice a week.

The muscles of our body, they are comprised of protein as well as water so as to keep their regular uptake on protein, the body needs to eat protein rich foods. The bodybuilder should be those who really need high intakes of protein for themselves.

Thus, this muscles of the body are needing daily protein rich food daily, they need to get many amino acid thus helping everyone to grow.
