Answer 1

Do not go for a diet fad, all our bodies are different, so why follow the same diet for all of them? Here are some tips to help you lose weight!

Drink at least 8 glasses of cold water every day. Cold water actually uses up calories because your body can't use the water when it is too cold, so it uses energy to heat it up.

*Stop drinking soda and sugary juices all together, they do nothing but harm your body.

*Eat smaller meals, but more meals throughout the day. Never skip a meal, because you skip a meal, overeat at the next meal, feel bad, skip another meal, overeat again, ect. DOES NOT WORK!

*Veggies and fruits are your friends! Plus, eating pomigranite (the actual fruit) can curb your appetite, plus it will take you a full hour to pick out all that stuff in the actual fruit :)

*When you eat, be sure to sit up straight and have a little pillow on your lower back. This will help your brain realize it is full. It takes the brain 15-20 minutes to realize you are full!

*When you eat, take 3 bites, a sip of cold water, 3 bites, sip of cold water. This will help your brain realize it is full.

*Get smaller plates and smaller knives and forks. Why? Studies show that a group of people with big bowls and giant spoons will eat TONS of ice cream before full. While people who have little bowls and need to eat the ice cream with tiny sample spoons still eat that little bowl of ice cream, and they feel satisfied and full!

Answer 2

Exercise: You should start an exercise routine to get in shape, try running or any other aerobic activity for 30-60 minutes 5-6 days a week. Start lifting weights 3-4 times a week for the upper body strength that you will need for baseball (Important: Start w/ relatively light weights, then gradually work yourself up to heavier weights).
Diet: Cut down on the junk/fatty foods and sodas (occasional treats, its unrealistic to cut them out completely). Incorporate more veggies/fruits/protein into your diet. For protein, try eating lean meats (chicken, fish) grilled or baked--not fried. Drink the reccommended 8 glasses of water daily. *Avoid fad diets*

Answer 3

heres my choice:

eat a LOT of veggies , or u can eat a LITTLE serving of meat .
* three or four servings: meaning eat BREAKFAST, LUNCH, DINNER . DON`T EAT AT NIGHT.
excersise at night for about 2-3 hours .
DO NOT TAKE ANY PILLS, STERIODS, STARVATION. espiecally no starvation bcoz ull be reallllyyy weak wen u start ur baseball thingy .
avoid sweets (chocolate, ice-cream.. etc.) (or just once or twice time a month)
drink a LOT of water
don`t overexercise *like dont become too obessed with it . for example dont be exercisin every hour ... or after every meal becuz you`ll get tired wit it &give up. so u gotta limit urself . *remmeber onli at night. [but make sure u start early .. like around 9 p.m. or 8.p.m.
u gotta b patience of the exercisin . about after four weeks, im sure u may loose a couple of pounds.

i think this strategy only works to become skinnier, not buliding muscles. if u want to build muscles, u gotta eat meat or a lot then exercise. but it takes a longgggg time.

hopefulli works out good for you =]
