Answer: I lost 55 lbs. in 6 mo's. I had just returned from Germany and Paris where I walked everywhere and still ate normal foods. When I got home I had lost 10 lbs. Then I bought nothing but Lean Cuisine for dinner and a yogurt smoothie for breakfast and drank a lot of water.If I ate lunch at all it was fresh veggies. I got down to 96 lbs and now my family is yelling at me to stop!!! So I've gained back to 100 which is where I want to stay since I;m 5' tall. I really believe in Lean Cuisine, the food is fresh and very good. Don't drink sodas and walk every chance you can. It worked great for me Good luck.

Question: What is the healthiest way to cook salmon? Is it best to steam, bake or grill salmon? Or is there another even healthier way?! Also, why it it healthiest to do it that way?

Answer: grilling it, any method where it sits and cooks in the fat isn't as healthy as letting the fat drip off. there are also pans you can get that look like a grill top and have a small shallow drain pan below. you can put those in your broiler. it doesn't have the same smoky flavor that grilling gives, but its also healthy and good

Question: What is the healthiest food at a mexican resteraunt? I'm going out to eat tonight at a Mexican resteraunt and I like to eat healthy so I was wondering what the healthiest thing I could get would be? Btw I'm lactose intolerant so nothing with cheese. Thanks!

Answer: Well, Mexican is typically not healthy. But if you want to eat as healthy as possible when you go, guacamole is amazing for you. Hardly any fat, great for your heart, and is very flavorfull. A taco salad with no chips or tortillas is good for you, skipping the cheese of course. Salsa is great for you because tomotoes are loaded with licopene (a chemical found in the red color of tomatoes to help reduce the chances of some cancers, especially skin cancer). Go with chicken no matter what if you must have protein. Lay off the beef and pork, and when you ask for chicken suggest no butter or oil and possibly- if they can- grilled chicken. Not too many alcoholic drinks if you're into an occassional drink. Any more than one glass of wine or beer a day can decrease your abdominal metabolism by a good 25 or more percent. Hope this helps!

Question: What is the healthiest fruit in the world and which is the tastiest? I'm planning my gardening season for next year., I'm looking for fruits and veggiest that are healthy and also great tasting. But I am curious if any one knows which fruits are the healthiest and why? At the same time, we want foods that are fun and great tasting. If we can have both, all that much better. Your co-operation would be wonderful. Thanks

Answer: Berries are among the healthiest of fruits, especially strawberries because they are very low in sugar. They have more than enough vitamin C for the day, 3g of fiber, and only 7g of sugar. All fruits are full of different vitamins, minerals and other things you need, so when researching their health value, you would do best to simply look at sugar. You also want to pick the brightest colored fruits because they are generally the most nutrient-packed. Above all, the most important thing is to eat a variety of fruits (and vegetables) from different color families. As for the tastiest...that's a matter of personal opinion!

Answer: start with salads - fish that is not fried - vegetables ( not in butter sauce) then you will be full before you get the more fattening things, like fried meats, desserts

Question: What is the healthiest way for teenagers to lose weight? I am 16 and extremely overweight. What is the healthiest way for me to lose weight over the summer?

Answer: I have been through it all and know what's it about. The main thing is to stick in there. You can't be an addict to food and never exercise if you want to live a healthy life and keep the weight off. I've worked out, done every diet, and all types of classes. Nothing works, besides dedication and intelligence towards the subject of losing weight. First, depending on how much weight you need to lose, your diet is the first concern. You can't eat 10,000 calories a day and expect the weight to come off, even if you are exercising a lot. Which brings us to the next thing. Duh, Exercising... This is a must especially if you need to a lot of weight. Get at least 30 mins of some good hardcore exercising. Do some cardio, in the long run, it's good for the heart. However, I find the most hardest part of losing weight/keeping it off, in my diet. It's so hard to keep your fingers out of the cookie jar or those chocolate goodies. I've found a great addition to help any one out, it's a natural weight loss supplement called Proactol. Now don't get all crazy on me and say diet pills don't work. That is true, but not in this case. This one isn't meant to burn pounds while you sit on the couch. It's an appetite suppressant, along with being a fat binder. I saved money on the pills at theweightlossplace. com along with getting some good info. It basically makes those fingers not go towards the cookie jar. For me it's the best pill I've tried and I've tried cupboards full. Now this doesn't mean you have to follow my foot steps but I've successfully lost roughly 70 pounds and keeping it off til this day. Well good luck and remember what I said, Dedicate.

Question: What is the healthiest way to lose weight? Im not fat but i am very athletic, but i have thunder thighs, and i am really self-conscience about it. What is the healthiest way i can lose weight?

Answer: Interesting question. I also know a girl who is physcially really built in the upper body but has tree-trunks for legs. My recommendation is to try changing your diet and sticking to a cardio routine. Your body can ONLY become ripped by proper diet and cardio exercise. If you are lifting weights by any chance using your legs (squats, leg extensions) try to minimize the workouts. Being active is still key but try to curtail the intensity of your routine while still focusing on high reps. As for diet, minimize carbs and eat foods high in protein and lots of fibre from vegatables. Avoid all sugars, processed foods/fats, gluten and even dairy. Drink plenty of water. I would try to focus on this diet for at least a month to see how your body adapts. Good luck!

Question: What is the healthiest way to cook chicken? Eating beef or fish raw doesn't taste good but is better then cooked since the food retains all its nurtients unlike when it's cooked. Eating chicken or turkey raw isn't good since there is parasites. I would like to know what is the minimal way to cook chicken and where you will remove parasites but retain the highest level of nutrients. I don't mind if it is tasteless I am interested in finding the healthiest food. Thanks

Answer: Chicken should be fully cooked at all times or you run the risk of salmonella poisoning. I've tried chicken shashimi at a Japanese restaurant once where the chicken is entirely raw but I would venture they make sure it's really clean and there is always a risk when its not fully cooked.

Question: What are the healthiest sprouts to make? I wanted to try sprouting either brown rice, nuts, and different kinds of beans. Which ones would probably be the healthiest to eat?
