The question may come to you, “How do I know when I am in my aerobic zone?” There are two ways. One, check your pulse. Count your pulse for ten seconds multiply it by six and that will give you your heartbeats per minute.
(22 beats in 10 seconds) x 6 = 132
A less technical way to find your aerobic zone is to monitor your breathing. If you are exercising and you can hold a normal conversation you are not aerobic. If you can hold a conversation but occasionally you have to take a deep breath, you are aerobic. If you cannot hold a conversation at all because your breathing is too heavy, you have passed out of your aerobic zone and have entered your anaerobic zone.

On the Activity Page. You must enter your weight here every day so that the system can calculate an accurate caloric burn for all of the activities you do. |

The most realistic way to lose weight is to do it slowly and methodically. That pace would be one pound a week. For example, let's say you have 52 pounds to lose. Would you be happy to do that in a year? We think anyone would. In order to achieve 52 pounds of weight loss in a year, you only have to burn 500 more calories than you eat each day or 3500 calories a week. This will be a challange but achievable for almost anyone. We developed fatburn.com to give you the knowledge and guidence to succeed. |

I WOULD TRULY LIKE TO BELIEVE YOU CAN HELP, BUT NO ONE CAN COME UP WITH A SOLUTION FOR MY DAILY ROUTINE, BUT I'LL GIVE YOU A SHOT TOO. M-F I GET UP AT 3:30 AM TO GET READY FOR WORK. I WORK UNTIL 10:30 AM, AND GO HOME TO DISPATCH TRUCKS AND DO A/R, A/P, OR READ LOAD BOARDS FOR 6-8 HOURS(SITTING ON THE BUTT IN FRONT OF THE COMPUTER). THE 3 OLDEST BOYS ARE, BY THEN HOME FROM SCHOOL, AND WE'RE DOING HOMEWORK, CHORES, OR RUNNING ERRANDS. MY DAY ENDS AT 10:30-11:00PM. ON SAT & SUN, I GET TO SLEEP FOR A CHANGE(USUALLY UNTIL 11AM)AND DO MORE PAPERWORK, CLEANING, AND TRYING TO GET SCHOOL PROJECTS DONE. I HAVE TRIED EVERY PILL AND DIET EVER MADE. I HAVE TRIED TO EAT "NORMALLY"(YOU KNOW, BFEST, LUNCH, DINNER)TO NO AVAIL, AND HAVE GAINED WEIGHT DOING SO. I GET NO EXERCISE, BECAUSE I TRULY DON'T HAVE TIME, OR THE ENERGY, OR ENOUGH HOURS IN THE DAY. I WON'T SACRIFICE TIME WITH THE BOYS(YOU KNOW, GO TO "WORKOUT")BECAUSE I DON'T GET MUCH WITH THEM. BESIDES, THEY SAY I'M ALWAYS DOING COMPUTER WORK ANYWAY(GUILT). DO YOU HAVE AN IDEA? I'VE LOST ALL HOPE, AND I DON'T WANT TO BE THE "FAT MOM" IN ANY OF THE BOYS CLASSES. CAN YOU HELP? |

You can lose weight without exercising, but it will just take time. All you need to do is consume fewer calories than you burn. For each pound of weight you wish to lose, you will have to burn 3,500 calories more than you burn. We know nothing about you- your height, weight or age so we cant suggest exactly what to do. However, sign up for fatburn.com and track EXACTLY what you eat. Try to target a few hunded calories per day (more than 200-300 is unlikely w/o exercise). |
