This review may help you lose weight. Please consider reading and following these steps.
Steps

1. Set goals for yourself. You'll be better able to make a realistic weight loss plan if you know how much weight you want to lose.
2. Lose weight safely. When losing weight you have to pace yourself or risk damaging your health. Losing more than one pound per week is likely to adversely affect your body and you will probably just experience a yoyo effect.
3. Do cardio exercises. You can pick and choose which exercise you want to do, depending on your fitness level and drive. For example: walking, jogging, using the stair stepper, using cross training machines, swimming, tennis, and basketball.
4. Work on your stomach. Do sit-ups or crunches every morning and night, gradually increasing the number until you reach your goal.
5. Eat healthy snacks when you feel hungry between meal times. Healthy snacks would be things high in fiber, fruits and vegetables. Avoid high sugar and high calorie snacks. This will help you get nutrients as well as help lower your appetite so you won't overeat during meals.
6. Eat breakfast. Do not skip breakfast. If you don't have time to prepare breakfast, buy healthy breakfast bars or those smoothies on the go. It is important to eat breakfast to jump start your metabolism and give you energy for the day.
7. Drink at least 8 cups of water a day. Stay hydrated. While you don't need 8 cups of water a day to stay hydrated, it'll make sure you're hydrated as well as cut down on your hunger levels and force you to get a little bit more exercise (trips to the sink, water cooler, water fountain, and bathroom).
8. Increase your fiber intake. Fiber acts as negative calories. It's also filling and healthy for your digestive system.
9. Cut down on high calorie/sugar drinks. This includes sodas and fruit juices. If you're a heavy soda drinker, permit yourself to only one diet soda per day, maximum. Just one extra soda each day can add 15 pounds. Recently, fizzy drinks, even diet ones, have been said to slow down metabolism.
10. Eat slowly and chew more. Take time to enjoy your meals. This will help you to finish at the same time as others, and you'll not be tempted by a second helping. Also, chewing more will ensure you get the most out of all the food and it will be digested faster. The more you chew, the more your appetite will be satiated.
11. Look for foods that are low in saturated fats and refined sugar, and that provide calories based on whole grains and proteins. These will keep you feeling full for longer, and prevent blood sugar spikes and crashes. Simple carbs like white bread acts almost like sugar.
12. Eat less, but eat more often. If possible, eat 4-5 meals a day. This helps your metabolism and blood sugar to stay level as well. This does require a change in your schedule.
13. Eat smaller meals and eat less within 6 hours of your bed time. You're less likely to burn the calories closer to your bed time. It's fine to eat a large breakfast and lunch because your body will be working on burning those calories for the whole day. Large dinners are likely to go unburned and converted into fat.
14. Find active friends. Find people that will drag you out to do more active things. It doesn't have to be much, but any exercise even walking around the mall is better than none.
15. Do some weight resistance training. Weight training (and resistance training) can help reshape your body. If you just lose fat, your body will stay in the same general shape, just smaller. Incorporating weight training will help change your body shape as well as build muscle. The more muscle you have the higher your metabolism will be. unlike cardio, with weights you body contiues to burn calories even at rest. The reason for this is that when you lift weights you essentially break down the little fibres in the muscles and your body burns calories all night repairing the muscle.
16. Keep a photographic diary. Take a picture of yourself monthly or weekly if you are going to be very dedicated to weight loss. Be careful though, don't let the photographs discourage you.


Tips

* Don't go on one of those "fad" diets. Losing too much weight too quickly can lead to health problems. All the weight lost from most fad diets will return soon after you transition off of them.
* Don't get discouraged. After one or two weeks of initial weight loss, it is quite common for your metabolism to slow down as it adjusts to the new calorie count. Stay on course and you'll see results. In some cases, the scale will tell you your weight is barely changing, but you maybe gaining muscle weight while losing fat weight. Also make sure to weigh yourself first thing in the morning to try to avoid the fluctuations in weight due to water.
* Allow yourself to cheat depending on your will power. If you don't have the will power, allow yourself the treats like dessert and a little ice cream. Many people when they try to avoid comfort foods altogether, find themselves bingeing on those very foods. If you have a very strong will, you will not need to cheat at all. If you have a very fragile will, you'll likely cheat often. Just make sure as you progress, the "cheating" becomes less and less.
* Leave left overs when dining out. If you find yourself overeating at restaurants, train yourself to always leave half of the food on your plate. Bring it home for later. Don't feel compelled to eat it all in one sitting since it's usually way too much food for one meal. Or just box it.
* A gym will give you access to weights, machines, and classes. You can always hire a personal trainer to help motivate you.
* If you like a sport then take a class! Or perhaps take a dance class. If you're self conscious ask to audit a class to see if you can be comfortable attending.
* You don't want to pass out trying to run 5 miles on an empty stomach. But do some exercises if you have time.
* ' You will never lose weight and keep it off unless you manage to incorporate these tips permanently. Applying these tips for a short time is useless in the long term. Realize that this is for the long term. Take as much time as you need easing yourself into it.
* Once you have a routine, it's easy to maintain. For example, start exercising once a week NEVER missing a single session. Once that becomes routine, it should be easy to sneak in another day of exercise and slowly have that become routine too If you have unhealthy snacks you're likely to munch on them. Get rid of that temptation. A lot of people will just grab something and munch on it without even realizing what they're doing.
* Keep in mind that a 3500 calorie deficit will result in the loss of one pound. You can use this figure to decide how many calories to cut back each day to result in the weight loss you want to achieve in a certain period of time.
* There are two ways to reduce net caloric intake: 1) reduce the number of calories in your diet and 2) Increase the number of calories that you burn in your daily activities. Both approaches are usually necessary and healthful and both are effective in losing weight. For example, a 30 minute bike ride or walk can burn 500 calories--that represents 500 calories that you do not have to eliminate from your diet in order to lose weight! Try to exercise at least 3 times per week for 20 minutes or more and your body will experience what professionals call a "training effect" from the exercise that will raise your general level of health.
* Keep a diary of everything you eat.
* If you are engaging in an activity that you usually snack during, find something to do with your hands instead of eating. Take up knitting, learn to sew, write those thank-you cards, anything to keep you from munching mindlessly while you watch tv, etc.


Warnings

* Ask your doctor for advice. They can give you dietary advice as well as discuss any physical problems you may or may not have while exercising. If you're planning to take weight loss very seriously, ask your doctor if there will be any complications.
* Find reviews of dietary supplements from reputable sources. Find which ones are right for you.
* Most work out devices will essentially do what any "free" exercise can do. The only difference is you pay hundreds of dollars.
* Even a healthy meal can be turned unhealthy with chips or fries and a drink. Just ask for water.
