Be your own trainer and nutritionist, the basic rules to losing weight are no soda, no fast food, lots of chicken, fish, fruits, vegies, whole wheat stuff, yogurt. Not so many cakes and donuts and cookies. Basic common sense for eating, you just need to enforce it. Get all the bad stuff out of the house right away, just toss it or give it away while your still motivated. No alcohol if that applies. Some juice but make sure its all natural, because the ones that aren't are loaded with sugar and a leading cause in diabetes in children and adults. Lots of water, 3-4 liters a day, not all at once, but spread out. Its really easy to down a liter or two while your watching tv or on the computer. Also drink some after you eat the bigger meals of the day, it helps your body pick out the nutrients in food when your food is more spread apart.  These rules may be hard to adapt to at first so start with cutting out the things you know you can live without.  Then work to there.  Remember these are  perfect eating habits, it can take you a while to work into it.  If you know you can’t live without your one treat a day, don’t fight it by trying to eat something else, just eat it and make sure that’s the only one you cheat on a day.  Otherwise you’ll get depressed and quit.\nAs for exercise, lots of cardio. Find something you like. If you have never exercised much before, start with walking 30 minutes a day at a brisk pace. Move on to different terrains that include hills and increase the time spent. After a week or two, try jogging the route. No matter what find an activity you enjoy. Walking to jogging is just an example, try hiking, rollerblading, biking. Once you get into a regular routine, if your not happy with the level of difficulty, try signing up with a gym. Spinning, pilates or kickboxing classes are great. It will also introduce you to working with weights. Talk to a trainer for instruction before using any weights. A cheap investment is a balance ball, it works you stomach while your just sitting on it, like at your computer and its great for posture. There are hundreds of exercises you can use it for for your entire body. I can give you some ideas if you want, just email me.

A great way to lose weight is to go on a protien diet, and eat less porportions. Eat meat, cheese, eggs...that kind of stuff. And when you can try to go for a walk or jog. And also try sit ups. but first just try the protien diet. There is another diet as well its kind of weird but it makes you lose 10 pounds in 1 week (supposedly) i havent tried it but i guess it works. You eat cabbage soup. You can eat as much of it as you want and every now and then throw in a banana or a baked potato i bet it might work. Just what ever you do dont starve your self or anything like that taht can cause further problems well i hope i was help! GOOD LUCK!

Do you need to lose weight?  That's the important question.  If you really are overweight this is what you should do:\n\nYou have to choose a heatlthy lifestyle.  Eat right, eat moderately.  Incorporate fruits and veggies and cut out the junk.  Exercise consistently, not just sporadically--a combination of cardio and strength-training would be best.  NEVER take diet pills, they are 100% not good for you.\n\nGood luck. :-)

First of all, be realistic with your weight loss goals- I don't think you need to lose as much as you think you do!  Ok, that said, start with some activity that you will enjoy- walking is the easiest way to get started for most folks.  Swimming is another great one if you have access to a pool.  Be careful with the vegetarian diet- cheese is often in many vegetarian dishes, and can add a lot of excess calories and fat.  Good Luck!

You probably know that virtually hundreds of different fad diets, weight-loss programs and outright scams promise quick and easy weight loss. But the foundation of every successful weight-loss program still remains a healthy diet combined with exercise. You must make permanent changes in your lifestyle and health habits to lose significant weight and keep it off.\n\nHow do you make those permanent changes? Follow these six strategies.\n\n\n1. Make a commitment\n\nPermanent weight loss takes time and effort. It requires concentration and a lifelong commitment. Make sure that you're ready to make the necessary permanent changes and that you do so for the right reasons.\n\nNo one else can make you lose weight. In fact, external pressure — often from people closest to you — may make matters worse. You must undertake diet and exercise changes to please yourself.\n\nAs you're planning new weight-related lifestyle changes, try to resolve any other problems in your life. It takes considerable mental and physical energy to change your habits. So make sure you aren't distracted by other major life issues, such as marital or financial problems. Timing is key to success. Ask yourself if you're ready to take on the challenges of serious weight loss.\n\nKeep in mind that no matter how prepared you may be, you'll occasionally overeat or eat foods that you should avoid. Rather than let a setback derail your efforts, accept that it happened and get back on track. Don't expect perfection — and never give up.\n\nMotivate yourself by focusing on all of the benefits of losing weight, such as having more energy and improving your health. Then look at the negatives, such as finding the time to exercise, and come up with creative solutions.\n\n\nMore On This Topic\nWeight loss: Are you ready? \n2. Get emotional support\n\nUltimately, only you can help yourself lose weight by taking responsibility for your own behavior. But that doesn't mean that you have to do everything alone. Seek support from your partner, family and friends.\n\nPick people who you know want only the best for you and who will encourage you. They should be available to listen to your thoughts and feelings and encourage you, perhaps spend time exercising with you, and share the priority you've placed on developing a healthier lifestyle. An ideal support person might be someone who also is participating in a weight-loss program.\n\nSome people fare better with professional support, such as a dietitian or personal trainer. Others benefit from the group support they receive from organizations such as Weight Watchers or Overeaters Anonymous.\n\nIf you do join a group, keep in mind that what you get out of it will be in proportion to what you put into it. If you sit in a corner and just listen, you may hear some good suggestions. But if you actively participate, you're more likely to reap the potential rewards of the group, such as support, encouragement, feeling that you're not alone and helpful suggestions specific to your concerns.\n\n\n3. Set a realistic goal\n\nWhen you're considering what to expect from your new eating and exercise plan, be realistic. Healthy weight loss occurs slowly and steadily. Aim to lose 1 to 2 pounds a week. To do this, you need to burn 500 to 1,000 calories a day through a low-calorie diet and regular exercise. Losing weight more rapidly means losing water weight or muscle tissue, rather than fat.\n\nSet weekly or monthly goals, and then track your progress. Remember that you're in this for the long haul. Anything you undertake too intensely or too vigorously may quickly become too onerous, so you're more likely to give up.\n\nIn addition, make your goals "process goals," such as eating judiciously and exercising regularly, rather than "outcome goals," such as losing 50 pounds. Changing your process — your habits — is the key to weight loss. Make sure that your process goals a

If you really want to lose weight...and keep it off forever...forget about diets. They do not work. Instead, what you need to do is make a lifestyle change. Here's a high-level overview of what I'm talking about.\n\n1.) Eat healthier. I'm not sure what kinds of food you eat. Eliminate junk food and processed foods. Opt for fresh veggies and the like. (This is vague...cuz like I said...I dunno what kinds of food you eat.)\n\n2.) Exercise. Turn off the TV and get some exercise on a regular basis. This along with healthy eating will help you keep the weight off. \n\nThis won't be easy...nor should it be. You will need to put in a lot of effort and research...but it's so worth it. Investing in your body is one of the best things you can do. It'll pay huge dividends though out your lifetime.  \n\nAlso, don't fall for diet fads. They'll set you up for failure. If you simply cut out the bad food and exercise on a regualr basis, you'll look better and feel better. \n\nI know this is kinda vague information. If you want details, lemme know. I'll be happy to share. \n\nGood luck...and don't give up.

Otherwise you’ll get depressed and quit.  Another important point is getting the right amount of sleep every night.  You need 8-9 hours of sleep each night for your body to function correctly.  This is an important factor of losing weight.  Set up a routine for yourself and go to bed at about the same time each night.  \nAs for exercise, lots of cardio. Find something you like.

Lots of cardio is great....do some toning exercises too, as the more muscle you have, the more calories you burn at rest.  Also, don't forget the food angle of it...calories in vs. calories out...I lost 40 pounds by eating healthier (non-processed food for the most part, and exercising 5-6 days a week for an hour total (mixed up cardio and weights)..hope that helps!

It sounds like you're already doing the right things.  Try varying the type of exercise you do, as you can hit exercise plateaus as well as weight loss plateaus. Make sure your exercise plan includes cardio, strength-training & flexibilty.  Strength training is SO IMPORTANT to losing weight; more muscle=more metabolism.\nYou might want to try something like slim-fast. Replace a couple of meals a day with a shake (it tastes better than it used to!).  I have 2 slim fast meals per day (Monday-Friday) with a scoop of protein powder in each and I work out 4 hours a week. I lost 12# in 3 weeks.  Check my weight-loss blog for more info. (Not selling anything! It's free info.)

1) Get a group of friends going. Everyone needs to lose weight. They will hold you accountable for your exercise, and together you can look at new and healthier recipes.\n\n2) Learn how to love yourself at any weight; more importantly learn how to love yourself naked. While it may sound odd and pretty perverted, if you can love yourself naked you can love yourself at any weigth. Be proud of you body!\n\n3) Don't depend on pills; depend on yourself. Learn to eat in moderation. Don't think you can do it? If you have a midnight craving, try drinking a glass of water. Many times when you think you're hungry, your body is actually thirsty. \n\n3) Exercise--even 30 minutes a day will make a huge difference. Start small, and don't push yourself too hard. You can't run until you can walk. Keep at it, and remember: don't give up. You will NOT see instant results.\n\n4) Set small goals and move on up. Don't start with a weight loss goal of 50 pounds in 3 months. Try 10 pounds in 1 month. That's healthy, and there's not as much pressure. Also, put up a new dress or bikini in the size you want to wear. That's your motivation. Everytime you wake up, you'll see that dress.\n\n5) If you need extra help, try Weight Watchers. In a study it was noted that WW had a higher success rate of losing weight and keeping it off. They now have a monthly pass that allows you to buy per month. You don't have to buy their foods to be successful.\n\n6) Remember: weight loss if a lifetime journey and change. You aren't going to change and lose weight over night. Allow yourself to make mistakes, but don't be discouraged. Eventually you'll learn that a bit of chocolate cake is just as satisfying as a huge slice. \n\n7) Alternate your exercises--don't just stick with one. Try a gym and take classes. Spice it up. Try a swim class. Try pilates. Do things you wouldn't normally do. I do a belly dance class and I've already lose 15 inches. Crazy how that works!\n\n8) Be healthy--losing 25 pounds in 30 days is NOT healthy. Aim for 2-5 pounds per WEEK, not per day. Remember: this isn't going to be a quick fix. You have to get your mindset off of that. Also, learn that your body may not be right for weight 110 pounds. If you weight 130, you'll be even more healthy. There is a point in every woman's body where the point of "too thin" is reached. \n\nGood luck, and DON'T GIVE UP!
