Weight Loss Program

Is walking one hour a day a good start for weight loss ? I’m trying to lose as much weight as possible I’m 6’2 and weigh 289…Are there any good weight lifting exercises I could do to go along with my workout ?

I can’t go outside a lot, so I do pilates. I want to know more workout for weight loss.
By the way, is pilates for girls only?

I don’t always go to my local gym, and i’d like to try one of those dancing weight loss videos i see on the television. If you know of any that ACTUALLY give you a good workout, and you saw results, please let me know.
Thank you!

I am planning to begin to lose weight and I want to start a blog about my weight loss, the struggles, post pictures, write about what I have learned as I go and other stuff about my personal journey to find the skinnier me. Any suggestions for a snappy, catchy blog title?

I wanted to start a weight loss competition this summer in my family, but I wanted it to be fair. For example its probably easier for my 260 pound brother to lose a pound than my 160 pound mom.
So whats is the best way to compare? Should it just be percentage of mass? Should fat be considered? Should i buy a body fat analyzer? Because i guess if someone lost 10 pounds of fat and gained 3 pounds of muscle, wouldn’t that be better than someone else who just lost 9 pounds of fat?
Just curious what people’s thoughts on this are, i want it to be as fair as possible but with accurate measures of comparison.

Being a vegetarian for over 10 years, I now need to lose some of the weight i’ve put on in this time. Unfortunatly I must be eating an unblalance diet as i see plenty diets but most are for meat eaters none for us veggies. Any ideas for a good healthy Vegitarian weight loss program ?

I’ve been working out consistently for about a year, but my weight loss has been really slow. I’ve only lost about 15-18lbs. I’ve also changed my diet and started eating a lot healthier. I haven’t been intaking much protein and I believe that is a reason why my weight loss has been slow. How much protein should I take to speed up my weight loss? Are there any recipes, shakes or vitamins I should be taking?
