Can ice cubes help you to lose weight?

Question

and if yes, how? lol

Answer 1

Well the key to losing weight is actually really simple. You just eat less and exercise more and if that dosent work for you then you must be a medical miracle. Ice cubes lose weight? I have heard some celebs sit in ice cold baths and that your (poor) body burns calories trying to keep itself warm. The only way you can lose weight is through hard work and discipline

Answer 2

My dentist says that chewing ice cubes is VERY BAD for your teeth. Don't do it. Just cut out processed food, eat more protein (but not too much), less sugar, and exercise for at least an hour a day.

EDIT:

And cold water burns more calories, but NOT a significant amount. So if you were to drink cold water, yo would lose the same amount of weight in the same amount of time, even if you drank room temp water. It's a proven fact.

Answer 3

yes It can put a bunch of ice cubes in ur tub and then go to your bath tub and sit in there for a while it strentghens ur ribs

Answer 4

Answer 5

Well I know that drinking cold water, you use more calories up, as its warming it up or something like that, so probably ice cubes yeah, as it is obviously cold water!!!!!!!

Answer 6

in what way they could help? I've never heard of something like that.

Answer 7

They will have no appreciable effect. Basically so called dieters like you are doomed from the start. Nothing is going to lose weight for you, it requires both effort and willpower.

The problem with your question is that if you look in "search for questions" it comes up 30 times every day. I have had some criticism for repeatedly using the same answer, but since I am happy with my answer, and the questions are the same, I don't see the issue with recycling the same answer.

In practise for problems that came up on a regular basis we tended to use patient leaflets to avoid having to repeat ourselves this seemed a sensible use of resources. What follows is thus in effect me information leaflet.

Weight loss and fitness is always a long term commitment and never a quick fix. If you really want to reduce your weight a bit, this is a complex regime, that should help, I would get a pencil to write it down, in case you forget any of the intricate details.

Currently only using the criteria 'lose weight' there are 9,419 questions and answers on Answers already. Mis-spell it as 'loose weight' and you get another 2,633! 'Weight loss' will add another 1,883. 'Too fat ' 15,515 and 'overweight' 2,692 and 'over weight' 26,269!!!!!.

'Diet Pills' gives 607, Green tea 482, Hoodia 195, 'pink patch' 119, 'Xenical' 91 'Reductil' 78, 'Slim fast' 215 (and Slimfast 69 ), lipotrim 44 and 'orlistat' 40 . Do you spot a pattern here? OMG that is 60,000 questions with the same basic theme, wanting to lose weight!

Here comes the only answer, no tricks, no pills, no short cuts, If you really want to lose weight, loose weight, not be too fat or overweight, follow these instructions carefully:-

1) Eat less

2) Take regular vigorous exercise

Repeat 1 + 2 forever

Answer 8

Not really, and the first person is just trying to sell you something.  I HATE those people!!  

To lose weight you just need to take in less calories.  You can get that alli stuff at the grocery store now.  It used to be a prescription drug to lose weight, but now you can get it anywhere.  The side effects suck, but it does really work.  

Also, think of things that fill you up without any calories like sugar free jello and pudding, or sugar free popcicles, or veggies and stuff like that.

Good luck!
