I genuinely need to lose 3kg in 2 weeks does anyone have any advice. Please help me. No gym btw. And I'm a student it's hard to maintain my studies with diet etc

Is there any pill or powdered drink that can help suppress my appetite? I really need it. I don’t mean that I only want to eat healthy foods. I’m asking for a real answer like actual pills or powder drinks that can help reduce my appetite.

My entire life I have watched my mom struggle to feel confident in herself because of her weight. It breaks my heart that my mom feels like she can’t love herself or be loved. It really really kills her self esteem. She suffers from many other issues that make normal weight loss options impossible. Fibromyalgia, inter-cranial hypertension, hypothyroidism, and probably more that I don’t even know. Because of these issues she can’t exercise. She can’t do the normal weight loss programs like nutrisystem or weight watchers because she’s gluten intolerant. I don’t know if GLP-1s are available for her because we are on Medicaid and I don’t think our state approves them for weight loss. I don’t wanna put her weight but her BMI is 43.9. She does have the isagenix meal replacement mixes but she can’t lose a lot of weight from those. If I’m correct she also can’t use things like RoBody because we have Medicaid. What can I do to help or suggest to her? I can’t stand to see her hate herself when she is my whole world. No she has never been at risk for diabetes so she can’t get GLP-1s for that reason. Is there anything, ANYTHING, that could help. I just want my mom to be able to love herself the way I love her.

So like I know there are athletes on Reddit that need to lose weight for competitions and stuff. Teach me your ways please. I beg.

But also people that did it just for looks,also teach me your ways.

Thank you

Are there any weight loss supplements that people have take and that have actually worked or helped a person lose weight?

I’ve been using an appetite-suppressing medication for a week. My basal metabolic rate is around 2,000–2,100 calories per day, and I’m consuming between 1,000 and 1,500 calories daily. When I weigh myself, what kind of change should I expect to see? Would walking throughout the day be enough exercise? If you have experiences about medications like that I'm happy to hear your results and tips.

Hey guys, so maybe this is probably an unrealistic goal I’m setting here, but I’m trying to lose my stomach fat in the next two weeks because I have a trip to Europe and I don’t wanna have extra lonjas while wearing swimwear. I’m 18 (f), 4’11 and weigh 128 so it’s been difficult to not only drop the weight, but also look more lean. I eat healthy and diet as much as possible. But my question is should I be doing 20k steps everyday or 10k steps with an upper body & ab workout? Any tips would be appreciated, I know this is not the greatest idea but I really need this !!

Hey, yall. 19 M here. Being real. I've been going to the gym for about 6 months now. Honestly, I have been struggling lately with dieting because I live with my parents, and buying my own food is out of the picture unless it's small things. I've been surviving off of 3 sandwiches for lunch and whatever my mother makes for dinner + Whatever other protein I need crammed into a protein shake just to reach my goals. I want to be 200 lbs and around 10-13% body fat so I can stay in that healthy range. I go to the gym 5 days a week. I do a UL/PPL split. I work every muscle group 2 times a week. You know. I do the whole work. I even take magnesium Glycinate, vitamin D, Fish Oil, Creatine. Like I do everything in my power to lose weight. Still at 225. I've lost fat. That's definitely visible. But I still feel like a chud cause that weight is just not budging. I eat a deficit of about 2300 calories a day, which is pretty good. I've been taking my thyroid medication every day. Shit I've even been actually doing leg day as an amputee. Still nothing. Is my goal attainable? I'm starting to believe it's not to be honest. I went from like 230 to 225. I lost 5 lbs in 6 months😭

I’ve been eating below my estimated maintenance, but I’m still up a few pounds on the scale recently.

I’m tracking my calories fairly closely, so I’m confused about how this is happening. Is this most likely just water weight/glycogen/food weight, or could my maintenance estimate be way off?

How long should I wait before assuming I’m actually gaining fat?

For context, eating about 1500-1600 calories as a 175 lb, 6'0 17 year old. Thanks.

I've been overweight for about 15 years and I think I've tried everything like Keto, fasting and even some sketchy pills from AliExpress. I know that was dumb…

Nothing worked…

Recently my doctor said I'd be a perfect candidate for semaglutide like GLP-1 and the weight loss drug everyone talks about.

But where I live, the waitlist to see a specialist is three months. And the pharmacy prices are insane. I can't afford that.

Yesterday I saw an ad for this site and they prescribe GLP-1 online. They also let you add vitamins to the same order so you don't have to run around to different stores.

It sounds so convenient. I’d even say way too convenient.

I'm desperate because at one point I really want to start. But at the same time I'm also terrified. What if I waste money I don't have?

I'm scared of needles too. But I'm more scared of staying like this…

Please share your experience if you've tried it. I need to know if this is real before I commit

I’m a 30 F and have been relatively healthy my whole life. I’m quite tall and anything under 175lbs makes me look way too skinny (in my opinion), in an unhealthy way (I have a wider rib cage and it’ll stick out a lot if I weigh around 170). A year ago I left a job that had me on my feet 24/7 for an office job that has me sitting the whole day. This is my first office job and I have gained so much weight it’s crazy. I’ve noticed this past year that my baseline weight has gone from 175-180lbs to 195+ lbs. my eating habits have been about the same more or less. I’ve been tracking my calories and the worst it’ll get to is 1800 calories per day. I’ll be honest, I do not drink a lot of water in a day. Maybe 2 cups. It’s always been that way. I average 6-7 hours of sleep. A lot of this weight has gone to my things so my inner thighs touch a lot more now. I’ve been in the gym 3x a week for 2 months. I typically do 15 min of cardio and do some light weight training. My workouts typically last 45 min and I burn about 300-400 calories. I can’t go too hard as I have a slipped disc. While the number on the scale has not budged I have noticed my pants fit a little bit better now. Sorry for rambling. Any idea why I can’t get my legs to shrink a little?

I’m 23 181cm and currently weighted 104kg, I have done running, walking, exercises and then too it isn’t loosing instead the weight it getting high

Currently I am in calorie deficit and walking 10k steps. Idk what shall I do to make the process as fast as possible because my weight is now a problem in my day to day life. I am vegetarian I rarely eat junk food I need proper diet and what activities shall I do loose it !

So i am 25/F, and i weigh 232 pounds. I have started this weightloss journey multiple times in my life and have always failed, this october i almost lost 23 pounds and then again i had an accident and i was unable to go to the gym and hence i gained the weight again!
Now the thing is i am not able to control my cravings, i struggle soo sooo sooo much, it’s unbelievable
I have tried everything, eating protein and all shit! I even have diet coke but the thought never leaves mind and i end up ordering it.

I get way too hungry and even though i have had my meal i still crave for some food and end up eating junk, what should i do?

I try to eat in deficit which is 1400-1500 but end up crossing it every single day

I have bought treadmill for my home and i have 5 and 10 kg dumbells at my place, so i can do the workouts at home now as i have such a hard time going to gym, i am from India and i do wfh. So i struggle when it comes to getting ready and leave. AND ESPECIALLY TO Gym

Why am i not motivated and bothered enough. Why do i fail miserably, i don’t want to opt for GLP- 1 injections and drugs. I want to loose weight naturally

I really need the ways to get rid of the cravings, the ways that actually help. Also give me the silliest possible ways to loose weight and which motivated you to loose weight and to do the steps and go to gym

I am ready for everything - ways, books, anything that you guys recommend
Are there any chewing gums or medicines that i can take to loose my appetite. Not the weightloss drug (glp), tbvh i am financially not ready to take it

Please guys i really need you help

So I'm 230 5'6, and my goal is 195-190 by August-September, and really, anything will help at this point. I'm so miserable in the body I'm in right now, so please, any advice works. and Yes I'm an a Teen

So, I have been trying to lose weight. I have started this since 5th July, and it is 12th August right now. And I have only lost like 3 kgs. And due to some medical conditions, I cannot work out that much. Like I can, I can work out, but only when my body allows it. So, I do it very less. And the place where I live ,i cannot hit 10k steps Apart from that, I think I'm eating healthy, like, according to, as I am a vegetarian, but I consume dairy products. So, yeah, I have been like eating enough things, like enough protein, I think, So, I don't know what mistake I'm making. I do not eat like any fried food. I have not completely cut out sugar. I have allowed myself like one teaspoon of sugar a day. So, if necessary only, otherwise I don't eat that. And I don't eat any processed food or anything from outside. I am only eating homemade healthy food. Okay. I am an Indian, so Indian I've had like till now 4-5 cheat days..

I’m asking for practical advice on what I can do with my diet, exercise, and routine to get the biggest result possible.

Is it feasible for me to aim to lose 2 pounds a week for 9 months so I can be 70 pounds lighter for my graduation pictures? I’m taking Wegovy, eating healthier and going to the gym.

I currently weigh 208 pounds as a woman who is 5’4”, which is literally the heaviest I’ve been in my life. I would love to be 140 again. I realize that is an ambitious goal given it’s 33% of my body weight.

Are weights more effective at burning fat than cardio? Cardio is just easier for me to do. I tried doing squats with weights and days later my quads still hurt when I have to bend my knees to sit or stand.
