Answer 1

find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours)
5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water
have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
have lean meat (protein) for dinner - repairs muscle
cardio exercise 4-6 times a week for 30-50min, light weight training
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, past etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried, oily.
ofcourse you can spoil yourself once in a while with a little treat:)

Answer 2

The first and best way to burn fat is to modify your current diet. There are three simple ways
you can begin to modify: reduce calories, reduce sodium, and reduce fat. For example, by substituting a glass of
water for a carbonated beverage, you can cut approximately 150 calories or more, depending on how much is consumed.
Even if it were fruit juice instead of water, you would still reduce calories by approximately 50 - 100..
what causes these unwanted gains in weight and bodyfat? There are three possible reasons this can happen:
(1) Eat late at night (2) Exceed your normal caloric intake (3) Lack of exercise or physical activity.
best way to speed up the metabolism is by increasing meal frequency. Instead of eating 2 - 3
meals per day, try eating 4 - 5 small meals per day, or 3 meals and 2 healthy snack meals.

Answer 3

Try on nice days, take long walks or jogs. That helps build your leg muscle, and it may tone up your stomach. Also, try not to eat too much over the summer. I know it is hard, with school being out, but you can try it. Hey, I even heard about some track programs. Maybe you can do that. You have fun also.

Answer 4

I'm doing the exact same thing too, and i bought a stationary bike, some are pretty cheap, and that burn alot of calories and helps you loose weight fast. another thing you could do if you don't wan to spend money is run or jog on a path, track, anywhere. Also walk, speed walk. Jog and do jumping jacks in front of the t.v or put on music.

-dont eat a lot of meat
-dont eat after 6 pm
-eat a lot of healthy snacks such as carrots,apples etc...
-run around your neighborhood mostly everyday
-do some skipping everyday
-drink a lot of white milk (partly skimmed)
-do not eat chips (Lay's..etc)
