I love food. I can always exercise if I eat the foods I like but if im on a diet I just hate it. I don't usually eat fast food maybe once a week. I usually eat healthy foods and one not so healthy but not junky either meal. I heard if you exercise 5 days a week you can lose up to 10 pounds in a year? Is that true? I'd like to lose a few pounds im not fat it's just I'd like to get toned up a bit. So If i brisked walked for 1 hour a day with no special diet how long will it take to lose weight and how much?
I eat about 1200-1400 calories a day I also drink water alot and no soda I wouldnt mind waiting 6 months to a year to lose those 10 pounds beause Im okay with my body.

Absolutely. You have a very sensible plan and I commend you! Please be aware that as you exercise, you add muscle, which weighs more than fat; your weight may stay almost the same but you will be toned, in shape, and with a higher healthier metabolism. Don't put yourself on a "diet"; instead, slowly replace any bad eating habits (you don't seem to have any, though!) with good ones. You will succeed.

Losing weight has most to do with calories-in/calories-out. To lose weight you need to create a deficit for your calories. What this means is; you must consume less calories than you use. When you run out of calories to use for energy, your body starts using energy reserves which are mostly from your stored fat and muscle.
Only eating 1200-1400 probably means that you already have a deficit. If you're not losing weight then you've probably trained your body to *think* that all you need is 1200-1400 calories. I would recommend maintaining an active lifestyle to get your average calories burned to atleast 2500/day. This will allow you to eat 1500-2000 calories and maintain a healthy weight loss.
If you can; try to add resistance training as well so that you lose fat while maintaining your lean body mass (muscle).
Another possibility is that you are already the correct weight but need to tone up. In this case you should lift light weights for long reps 3 times per week. Also create an everyday workout for your core (abs,lower back,butt). This could be various types of situps and a few sets of squats.
Take my advice and apply it to your lifestyle for 6 weeks and I promise you'll see a difference in your body

The South Beach Diet labored best for me. I located it to be more fit than any of the ones different diets on the grounds that it consisted of an overly balanced nutrition. The first two weeks had been difficult on the grounds that you are not able to have any carbs, however after that it turns into extra like a subculture alternatively than a nutrition. I found out that there are such a lot of healthful carbs to devour and that some thing moderately is well. I misplaced 20 kilos in this nutrition and I misplaced a different ten after including in yoga to my activity pursuits. Everyone is one-of-a-kind so my recommendation to you is check out one-of-a-kind matters and do not quit--it took me decades to discover what works for me.

After reading this I want to share something because I spent several years jumping from diet to diet without any success until I discovered Pams magic plan (i found it on google). It is without a doubt the best results that I have ever achieved and i have kept it off to this day.

Proteins takes more time to digest than carbs so eating protein will make you feel full for longer
