How much weight should I lose?/ exercise advice

Question

I am 21 years old, 5’6” and 195 lbs. how much do you think I should lose? I know I am a little overweight, I always have been. I have always had a bit of a belly and do you guys know any good ways to make your belly smaller as well?

Answer

so for your height, an ideal weight would be around 116-154. this would keep your bmi in the healthy weight range. however of course bmi does not consider muscle mass so it may not be an accurate reading of what is considered overweight. honestly, no one can tell you how much you should lose, because it’s your body you choose how you feel about it and you know what can make you confident. if you want to start your weightloss journey, I would first set a small goal. it could be to lose 10lbs,15lb, 20lb etc. whichever you please. that makes it easier and more attainable to work through. next step is you really need to take your diet seriously, as this is going to be the most important weight loss factor. you cannot spot reduce fat loss. you must lose weight overall to reduce belly fat and even then depending on your body type may not be the first thing that slims down, however, it will slim down! you just have to keep at a healthy diet and active lifestyle and you will see changes in no time.

Answer
