body shape

Question
Between 1200 and 1700 a day. Usually around 1450ish. I have a tendency to be a yoyo dieter (within around 9lbs) but Im trying to cut that out. I exercise sporadically due to classes and my schedule but its 2-5 times a week for 30 minutes to an hour each time. It usually consists of either cardio and/or weightlifting and the sauna and/or pilates. Thanks!

Hello! Over the summer I noticed that one side of my body is fatter than the other side. It did not used to be like this. Ive been trying to exercise both sides evenly but its like that even in my breasts, love handles etc.! Im 20 and weigh 133lbs at 5.5 ft. This really bothers me quite a bit. Thank you for you help!

Hi Jessica,

What is your caloric intake like? Are you exercising? If so how much?

Answer
Forget about
the way you look for a minute we will get back to that. Your body has 1
goal; SURVIVAL. It's jobs is to protect the brain to continue thought,
so it can function. It does not care how you look, honestly it would
rather be sedentary and obese. Why? because it requires less effort to
maintain.

Now let's take you for example, let's say you need about 1600-1990
calories per day( hypothetical) depending on your activity level. That
is just to
function optimally, wake up go to the bathroom ,go through the day and
on and
on till sleep time and the energy it requires to keep you breathing at
night( because you still burn calories while sleeping,maybe not as many
as you do during exercise, but blood circulation and breathing burns it
up). So what happens when you cut calories out? well initially you lose
weight, but then your body adapts to that and says" hey I'll learn to
live off this amount of food". So what does someone do? they cut
calories again, so you lose a little more and your body does it again
but
faster, and then on top of that it figures "if you keep cutting your
calories I will have to store some of it as FAT for later, in case I
run out
of energy because you decided that you were on "a diet". So now someone
is eating very little
and exercising a lot and not getting results, why cause your body does
not care what you want to look like if you don' t take care of it's
needs first. Plus if you get lean and have some muscle that requires
more
energy (food) to maintain , even at rest. You see the way your look on
the outside is just a print out of what you are doing on the inside.

So what should you eat very simple, I'll do you a favor, go to one of
my webpages www.Results4Sure.com, go to the contact us page fill in the
blanks and in the comments box type in free e-book, I will send you a
free copy of "the Body Fat Removal System" e-book, it will have all the
info you need.


hope that helps
