Your healthy body weight is that weight at which you are strong, energetic, and healthy. Everybody's body is different.
Eat a balanced, moderate, and varied diet that includes lots of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Low-fat or non-fat dairy products contribute to healthy bones.
Go easy on high-fat and high-sugar foods, but allow yourself to enjoy moderate amounts to satisfy your body's need for the nutrients they provide, so you don't feel deprived and vulnerable to bingeing.
Regular, moderate exercise helps stabilize weight, and it also gives you a whole host of long- and short-term health benefits.
You are at a healthy weight when you have enough strength and energy to lead a healthy, normal life. You know you are on the right track when your blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels are normal and when you have no back or joint pain because of undernutrition (loss of minerals from bones) or extra weight. If you are a woman, the presence of normal menstrual periods is an indicator of health.
The most commonly accepted (healthy) body fat levels are 18 to 23% for adult men and 18 to 28% for adult women. Anything less than that may produce significant physiological problems such as loss of bone minerals, leading to osteoporosis and hormone deficiencies.
Fit Track is a set of useful tools for monitoring your fitness level.
The best way to monitor your progress when embarking on a new diet and/or physical activity is to measure your body fat percentage, healthy weight, daily calorie intake, number of calories burned during various activities, percentages of fats, proteins and carbohydrates needed daily, percentage of your daily calories coming from fat, daily calorie intake from beverages consumed; as well as blood sugar converter, vitamins and minerals charts; and lots of information on healthy weight loss and adequate nutrition. Using these simple tools, you will be able to track your weight loss much more accurately than by simply using a scale alone. You will know exactly where your weight loss is coming from, so you can quickly make adjustments to your caloric intake to maximize your results.
Don't obsess by counting every calorie, but be aware that your body's energy requirements are higher that what is provided by many diets.
Ideally, you should aim to lose no more than 1lb - 1.5 lbs per week. If you are obese, then you should try to lose no more than 1% of your bodyweight per week.
The most difficult fat to lose usually centers around the waist, belly and lower back areas for men, and the upper thigh and buttocks, area for women. The fat in these areas are the most difficult to totally get rid of.
The only way to decrease the amount of fat in certain key areas is by lowering your total body fat levels. As you lose fat, it will come off all over your body, not just in specific areas.
