well, i went down two years ago from about 160 to 120. Mainly what i did was jogging. I started with some jogging and then I joined a soccer team which required even more jogging/running. Also drink lots of water.

yes. It was work and it took about a year but I lost about 80lbs. I just focused on a well balanced diet (high in protein) avoiding deep fried foods and watching portions. I ate three meals a day and snacked on healthy things like fruits and low fat dairies. Then I added more exercise. Not just hitting the gym but going to beach and going to zoo and other things that kept me entertained and active. Once I started to get my metabolism back on track it just came easy and the healthy living habits stuck with me because I felt better all around. It's been like three years now and I can eat such a variety without it effecting me. I found the key is don't deny yourself the things you enjoy just limit the portion size and frequency and it helps. Take what you plan to eat and leave the rest behind. If you have to go back for more you really think do I need it. Good luck it can be done. And look for other people to help support you and that want to improve there lifestyle and health. And don't be discouraged that it doesn't happen over night to do it right and keep it off it's best to take your time.

What I did was I cut anything processed out of my diet. I stuck with chicken (you can season that puppy as much as you like w/ Mrs. Dash), ate large portions of vegis and fruits. I started swimming (only thing I can do 22 and already have advanced stages of osteoarthritis!) I created a week workout, harder than I could normally do. I worked each day at the workout until I could do each work out with ease. Then I'd change it to even harder workouts. I also do a lot of walking (to class, dinner, to my car, etc.). If you really work hard then the pounds will come off. If you're starving eat a piece of fruit or vegi. Also one thing I thought wouldn't really work was brushing your teeth. You'd be surprised how much food becomes unappetizing after you brush your teeth!

i went down from 185 to 142 with bball an hour everyday and eating healthy

when i got to 142, i was about 8-9% body fat--and since then i've been lifting weights--now 164 but still 8-9% body fat--so good weight added

key is eating healthy--lean meats, lots of fruits, veggies, eating whole wheat/whole oat bread, etc--and eating 6 small meals over a day instead of eating 3 or less meals

A FEW THINGS TO REMEMBER:
The correct way to burn fat and stay healthy is to burn more calories than you consume
You need to make sure you are eating healthy foods while still excercising
If you have a big appetite drink plenty of water so that you will feel full but not consume calories
But you should always eat
If you start to skip meals you will only be more hungry at your next meal and probably eat way too much
Remember, the average persons stomach is as big as a slice of pizza scrunched up into a ball
So you shouldnt be putting more food into your stomach than what fits
Also, it takes aproximately 15-20 minutes for your brain to realize that you are full
so eat slower and you will realize sooner when you are not hungry anymore

ALSO....
i found this artical called "50 Habits of "Naturally Thin" People
How to get Started:Decide how much you want to loose and see how many calories a day it will take to make it happen by year's end.Then, work into your routines however many of these eating tweaks and exercises you need to achieve your goal.
Slash 250 cal.s a day to lose about 25 lbs. in a year, Slash 500 cal.s to loose 50 pounds.
This is based on a 150-pound person: you may need to cut more/ fewer calories depending on ur weight, age & gender. It also assumes your normal calorie intake essentially stays the same and your weight is stable.
