How can I lose 20-30 pounds fast,easy, and keep it off?
I want to lose 20-30 pounds perferably by march. I also want to lose the weight fast. I'm about 5'3 or 5'4 and I weigh 145 pounds. I have access weight around my stomach,legs arms face, just about eveywhere. I'm a vegitarian. I also play sports. What are some workout I can do? How many calories should I eat a day? I really need help.
First of all, there is never a quick fix. The pills are scams, and still require life style changes. You should only lose a pound or two a week to safely lose weight. If you are really serious about losing this weight and keeping it off, you will have to change your lifestyle. If you are a vegetarian to lose weight, I suggest you stop because it won't make a difference. If you're a vegetarian because it's who you are, then coolness. Life choices rock.
Do not try to eat less because your body will store the food as fat because it feels like it is being starved and then you will have the opposite effect you want. Don't binge either. The best way to make sure you don't eat too much or too little is to have six small meals a day, and (this is very important) chew slowly. This will help to regulate your metabolism (how your body digests foods) and, not only will you taste your food more, you will not eat so much that you eat more than your stomach will hold. It takes about twenty minutes for people to realize that they are full. Of course, a well balanced diet helps as well.
As for exercise, I'd say running (don't over do it) and make sure you stretch both BEFORE and AFTER. Your muscles will get sore otherwise (they still might get sore anyway but not as bad).
If you do this, your body will lose weight all over. There is no way to take off weight from a particular layer, your body will lose weight in proportion to the rest of your body. Also, you might gain some muscle from running. Muscles weigh more than fat, but definitely look better. Don't freak out if you're not losing as much weight as you like.
Well, that's all I can think of. Good luck!

About it happening fast. .well you should take your time but I think march sounds good. If you lose 200-250 calories a day you can lose 1/2 a pound each week. Find out if you need to increase you endurance,strength and intensity of a workout so use principle of overload and see how many reps you can do at the most and then do that 3-4 times a week.
Stretch atleast 5 times a week.
