If my starting weight is 276 and I lose 13lbs the first 2 week waht would the percent loss be and what is the formula?

I recently got out of the U.S. Army and joined a gym so I could stay in shape. I’m comfortable with some part of my body but still kind of self conscious about other parts. I hear a lot of people say that you can’t decide where to lose weight. Is it possible to target certain areas for weight loss during a workout?

I have a huge upper body! I have been on a weight loss journey this past year and have (healthily) lost 20kgs and fitter than i have ever been yet my upper body mainly my arms are still huge and flabby. I do pump classes and run as well as yoga each three times a week.every other part of my body is rather toned-except the arms!! what could i be doing wrong and what can i do differently? what excices focus on the upper body?

I’m watching a show about people who are undergoing weight loss surgeries, and I want to know what happens to fat that’s cut off of their bodies? It’s possible it could be incinerated after the surgery, but if it is, what do they do with the ashes?? I really would like to know the answer to this.

I am sure everyone who has dieted knows the pressure of staying on a diet during the holidays.Last Christmas when I was on a diet I completely crashed under the pressure of sugar and carbs.My diet did not get beck on track until about 3 months later.Please tell me how to survive during the Thanksgiving and Christmas…?
Thanx a bunch and God bless!!

I am 300 pounds and I want to be 150. I was just wondering how can I avoid having loose skin after my weight loss? I don’t want to have to get surgery or anything. Is there something that will help with this?

I read an article that I can no longer find about this diet. You start off at the beginning of each week eating almost no carbs. By the middle of the week you add some fruits and whole grains. On day 7 you can eat whatever you want, but go back to low carb on day one again. What is this diet called?

I’m 29, I’m 5′2”. In the past 2.5 weeks i have lost 11 pounds and now weigh 205. I have already noticed a little skin sag.
I reviewed the other questions on this topic. I want to know if it is necessary to stick to the regiment of 2 pounds max per week for weight loss or it’s alright to lose more if you’re doing higher intensity exercises like swimming, running, bicycling.
I’ve been losing weight so fast b/c i’ve cut down on how much food i’ve been eating, working out multiple times a day and cutting down on sleep ( i was sleeping too much previously).
would collagen in skin spring back faster if i lose weight at the slower rate of 2 lbs per week?
even if i lose weight faster than the 2 lbs, and lose weight at the 1 lb/ day as i am now, will my skin shrink to normal eventually? (i hope to lose at least 70 more lbs) i’m willing to lose weight 2lb/wk. i gained this weight of 65 pounds over the past year. i haven’t had it for very long. is my skin resilient? be honest.
