Hi,
Well - this is what works for me. I'm a University student and work 4 shifts a week whilst maintaining a great relationship with my fiance, family and friends (meaning - I don't have much time on my hands to muck around with diets or fads) I do what I know works... This is it ultimately: change what you consume and your exercise habits. You simply HAVE to keep your body moving to lose weight AND keep it off!
With regards to nutrition:
- I drink a 3 litres of water a day to flush out toxins and replenish all of my organs (more while exercising)
- I eat heaps of fruit and veges (high in vitamins and antioxidants)
- I don't drink alcohol, or smoke
- I stopped having coffee, soft drinks, fast foods, fatty foods and foods high in bad carbs
- I eat foods that are high in omega 3 fatty acids (i.e LSA, tinned fish, etc)
- I try to eat 5-6 small meals daily
My fitness goals are:
- Walking briskly everywhere I go throughout the day and I try and increase my normal daily activity
- I do about 30 minutes of cardiovascular exercises every second day
- Remember to stretch muscles before and after exercise and hydrate constantly (plain water)
- Every second day (instead of plain cardiovascular workouts) I do cardio + resistance training for an hour using Jillian Michael's DVDs (The hardcore chick from "The Biggest Loser")
Anything similar to this will make you more fit, healthier, happier and you'll lose that extra fat that is getting you down. Don't think of it as a diet. It's a lifestyle change and its all about self control and taking care of yourself!
You can do it!

if you want to improve your health generally, lose weight and have more energy then getting some nutritional help is vital. Once your body starts to absorb the right nutrients and vitamins and protein then you’ll be amazed how quickly you will feel the difference, usually within the first 48 hours if you get the right supplements and help. I had no energy and felt just generally rotten all round so I sought the advice of a nutritional coach (whose advice was FREE) and got myself some great products, I even got free samples before I got started so I could see just how good they were!! There is a website called myhealthabc.com If go on there and fill out the details (you must be over 18 and you’ll need a debit or credit card-or someone who can help you) page you will get a call with no pressure about what you need. There is a mall area as well that’s got some great info and its all set out with easy to follow headings so you can find what you want. It’s so easy and the stuff they have is excellent. I have been using their products for over two years and I feel great. I lost 70 pounds in less than seven months!! My sister lost 60 pounds in five months. The stuff is amazing. Try them you won’t be disappointed. I even started to use their skin care range last year and my skin is in such good condition now

I've tried many diets and couldn't make anything work. Since having my first child, I've been carrying around an extra 30 pounds. This diet just made sense and showed me that everything I was doing before was wrong and a waste of my time.
The plan was so refreshing and so simple to follow. I did everything plan said and lost 23 pounds in the first three weeks. I'm now starting the diet again to lose 7 more pounds. This plan has changed my life.
Get started today!

You dont need to go to a gym to do exercise! you could go for a jog in the park or around the block or you could do push ups or sit ups in your bedroom or living room. Weight loss without exercise will be really difficult as you wouldn't be burning off many of the calories that you are consuming.

Go with a low-carb diet. And you can exercise without access to a gym. Start with walking. Then do some Yoga and Pilates.
Its not so much what you eat... its how much.
Good luck

The best exercise is pushing yourself away from the table.
Don't eat until you are full, but stop eating when you don't feel hungry any more.

If you have a big desire for food drink lots of clean water so that you are going to feel full just not intake excess calories But you have to constantly eat. If you happen to start to skip meals you will be a lot much more starved at your next meal and possibly consume much too much. good luck...

you dont need to go to a gym to exercise but you need to exercise because in order to lose weight you need to burn off more calories than you consume!!!! just try walking everywhere or going for a jog in the morning - and cutting down on your calorie intake!!! good luck :)

You do not need a gym to exercise. Using your place doing situps leg-lifts, etc. or going out walking and watching what you eat.
