About Today: How to Lose Weight

If you can't see this email, click here

About.com


From Jen Hubley, your About Today Editor
It's one of those bizarre paradoxes: As we get fatter, our obsession with dieting increases. Certainly, whatever we're doing doesn't seem to be working. (See previous re: getting fatter.) So how do you actually lose weight?

How to Lose Weight
This bums me out: "To lose one pound of fat, you must burn approximately 3500 calories over and above what you already burn doing daily activities." That seems like an awful lot of work for a pound, doesn't it?

How to Burn Fat
Of course, it's a pound of fat you want to lose, not a pound of muscle. Here's how to do that healthily.

What 300 Calories Looks Like
One of the hardest things about losing weight is figuring out what portions sizes should be. 300 calories, for example, might be smaller than you think.
See More About:  portion sizes  calorie counts 

Calculate and Understand Your BMI
How much should you weigh? Here's how to figure it out.

From Jen Hubley, your About Today Editor
One thing all professions have in common: They are full of people who do not think they're making enough money for what they do.
