The quickest way is to cut out red meats, starches, breads, sugars, alcohal, and sodas.

Eat veggies (salads are good), soups, and drink TONS of water. If you get hungry between a meal, drink water to fill up.

In moderation eat white meats, and fruits (fruits contain natural sugars, and that can put on weight)

Practice portion control. Yes, you'll feel hungry at first, but think of your goal, and soon your stomach will start shrinking and you won't have that feeling anymore.

Eat 5 times a day. A small breakfast. A mid-morning snack, such as an apple. A small lunch. A mid-afternoon snack, such as carrots. A lite dinner. Do not eat any later than 7pm (6pm is better.)

Go exercise for at least an hour a day, incorporating weight training. Weight training builds muscle. Muscle burns fat. You get the idea. It also gives tone and definition.

Good luck!!

Sometimes keeping a food diary can help. Sometimes we don't remember how much we have snacked on during the day. The food diary can help you see if you are snacking excessively or help you see a bad habit.

If snacking is your problem you can look into a couple of options. You can cut down on your snacking or plan for healthier snacks. Don't drastically change your diet unless you know that you can stick with it. Otherwise you just gain all of the weight back because you go back to old habits. Just change a little at a time. Try having two "healthy meals" a week. Something as simple as having grilled food, instead of something fried.

Also, to lose weight you really need to do some type of exercise. Find something that you enjoy doing. You will be more likely to stick with it. Maybe walking, swimming, yoga, dance, aerobics. Just whatever you find interesting. If you bore easily you may want to try doing more than one thing. For instance, walking with friends on Monday and Wednesday, yoga on Tuesday and Thursday. The next week try dance on Mon. and wed. and aerobics or Tues. and Thurs.. You just have to find what works for you. The most important thing is to keep it fun and interesting. Take time and try some new things!

I hope these suggestions were helpful. Good luck and just keep the faith in yourself. You can do it. You just have to decide that you are ready to.

Total weightloss means being VERY active!

Confidence is key, weightloss is hard, but worth it for your health, its the most valuable thing you have... protect it and defend it!

Get into a routine, say to yourself cant go to work without using my eliptical machine. You have to go to work and therefore have to excercise. Heart health is so vital!
Working out in the morning statistically is proven to help with you sticking to it. Though working out in the afternoon helps fight fatigue and helps with sleep and less injuries occur when your body has had half a day to stretch out. Working out too late at night stimulates you too much and can affect sleep patterns. Its a personal choice. The more excercise you do the more energy you will have!

Get into a routine, like when you get ready for bed, brush your teeth and do some squats, comb your hair and do sit ups, practice your school work and do psuh ups reciting the scientific elements...

Reward your self !
dont punish... run a block drink some juice, ride your bike, eat an apple, use your eliptical for an hour, surf the net and at popcorn...

As for your stomach...
Abs are made in the kitchen!
Choose the foods you put in your mouth carefully...
eat whole foods, veggies, fruits, grains, dairy, meat, and take vitamins
prepackaged processed foods have too much sugar salt fat and carbs in them forget diets, fads, and pills

EAT SMARTLY, EXCERCISE EVERYDAY, SLEEP WELL, AND BE SUPER HAPPY!

i got off more almost 30 kg (aprox 66pounds) by hard work, less food and no eating @ work and drinking when hungry. i've tried methods recommended by others and what i've noticed that only YOUR OWN METHOD works. so find ur own method and use it. oh and don't trust all those "simple" ways buying all sort of things. i did and ... they did not work at all. i repeat: they didn't work @ all!!! maybe u'll find other comments usefull too and how others did it but what's important is to really b determined and to get support from ur family... that might take a while.
succes, it will grow ur confidence and self-esteem.

No drinks or chips and lots of water.If your full of water u won`t have room for anything else!!!! Start by drinking a full glass before u eat anything.Then drink it with the meal.Eat more salads with a vinegrette dressing no Ranch or Thousand Island.Boiled eggs are a good choice.Hope this helps.
