  1. eat parsly as u can with carots , stop eat sweets ....thats all


  2. drink lots and lots of water with food. it fills you up so you dont eat as much. also for snacks eat celery and fresh broccoli. but dont just give up eating because for some reason that never works (trust me i've done it) plus it screws up your metabolism. you loose more weight if you just eat veggies and cut out sugary stuff. i've lost 5 ponds in about 3 days doing that. so if you keep it up you should be fine. good luck though!  

  3. try cutting your diet to about 1/4 what you usually eat. i know what sounds harsh but belive me i did it and i lost 10 lbs in a week and a half ! but on top of that i kept myself busy so i wouldnt have to fight boredom and wanting to eat when im bored =)

  4. Stop eating foods that come from packages, like chips, crackers, cookies, candy, etc. and eat fresh produce most of the time.  You need lean protein, but only 2 or 3 (3 oz) servings a day...most of us eat too much protein and carbs.  If you watch your intake of carbs (especially bad ones like chips and crackers and fried coatings on meats and veggies!!) and protein, and eat lots of fruit and veggies, it's a good start.  Make sure you measure your servings...check the labels.  Do NOT eat butter, mayonnaise, full fat salad dressings, etc...those add up your calories very fast.  Skim milk is good (2 1-cup servings a day), but otherwise don't drink calories!  Eating 3 oranges is much better than drinking 1 cup of orange juice, and the two things have about the same amount of calories.

    Make sure you get exercise, both cardio and strength training. Don't neglect your strength training...building lean muscle helps boost your metabolism and allows you to lose weight more efficiently.

    Good luck.


  5. Losing weight first starts with being happy with yourself and loving *YOU* on the inside. Try everyday to smile and laugh, LAUGHING is super helpful. It seems weird but it does! =) Try to follow a 1600 calorie diet.

    It's best to have 5 meals a day that way you need get to hungry because that leads to over eating.

    Here is a couple ideas to help you get started:

    Breakfast:

    Oatmeal and a piece of wheat toast w/ 2tsp. trans free margarine. -OR- Strawberry Banana Smoothie (In a blender process until smooth, 1 small banana, 1/2 cup strawberries, 1/2 cup fat free milk, 1/2 cup low fat plain yogurt, 2 tsp. honey, and 1 or 2 ice3 cubes. You can have your smoothie with 1 or 2 pieces of whole wheat toast. -OR- An egg on a piece of wheat toast with salsa (make 2 servings) ---If you are still huingry at breakfast have a small piece of fruit.

    Lunch:

    1 cup soup (water based not cream base) and a Cheese and Tomato Sandwich: 2 slices whole wheat bread, 2 slices reduced fat cheese, mustard and sliced tomato. -OR_ instead of the tomato sandwich 2 pieces whole wheat with 2 slices of Turkey and Mustard. -OR- A Lean Cuisine Frozen Meal (These are actually very tasty. The meat is delicious.

    Dinner: 1 piece Chicken Breast with 2 side dishes: 1 cup steamed veggies, 1 sweet potato, 3/4 cup corn, 3/4 cup butternut squash, etc.

    Dessert:

    Light Ice Cream or Frozen Yogurt:

    3/4 cup with no more than 110 calories per 1/2 cup topped with tablespoon chocalate syrup.

    Snacks:

    Steamed Veggies, fruit, any nuts (these are great protein),

    my personal favorite snack is Light and Fit 60 calorie yogurt cup with a 100 calorie Granola Bar. (I cruch up the Granola Bar and put it inside of my yogurt.)

    Also there are alot of great ideas if you go to fast food for example....

    You can have any of the under 6 grams of fat sandwiches! They're delicious just No MAyo. My favorite is Sweet Onion Chicken Teriyaki. I like to get a foot long and have a 6' for lunch and a 6' for dinner.

    Also make sure you do 30 minutes of excercise 5 days a week. I like to walk to the store and back instead of drive =)

    This was just some ideas to help you on your way.

    Also its great to drink one glass of water before eating. Water is very important!
