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.

High Protein, low carb diet. Nothing heavy, stay away from bread/rice etc. Also increase your exercise. For crew [rowing] I had to be under 130lbs, except I was about 131-132 a week or 2 before it was time to weigh-in. So, I went on a high protein diet and increased my exercise, (however, we were simply tampering and i lost about 4-5 lbs. in 1 week, so that just goes to show if you have an intense workout on this diet, it will for sure show results). I also read something about drinking lemon juice, but I think I'll research that, but for the record, lemon juice helps with losing body fat?

Well, you need not go on a diet or anything, just eat food which contains a small amount of fat and eat more greens. Exercising also helps though you don't have 2 go 2 d extreme. Try swimming, it's not so tiring. Also, u can just eat whenever u feel hungry and stop once u're not hungry anymore. U don't have to eat until u r full. For snacks try eating frozen hazelnuts, they really help in curbing hunger.

For over all toning, I'd go with a cardiovascular workout. You would lose some in the waist, but probably have more energy.
Plus you can do it to music or while watching t.v.
To get an idea on different workout routines, just do a search for cardio vascular workouts. It's best to do what works for yourself.

When i came to Japan i used to weight 75 kg(165lbs) and after two months i was weighing 60kg(132lbs). What i did was i ate only once a day, but i don't recommend it.
The best way to do it is by exercise and have a healthy diet.

One of the healthiest ways, while still being affective is to cut the fat out of your diet. Our bodies would rather break down the fat that we eat for energy, but if we don't eat any fat it will have to break down the fat cells that we already have. My wife went on a 2 grams of fat a day diet for a week and loss one dress size in that short of a time. She was also walking about 2 miles a day, but didn't do any kind of strenous work out. You just have to remember to just cut out the fat, don't starve yourself.
