   You’re so cute i would hug you.

   Okay here’s what you do. KNOW that losing fat requires a strict set of mind, discipline and an iron will.

   Stop eating, sugar (sodas, cakes, candies, gum with sugar). Drink ONLY WATER (and some very low fat milk >1%). Cut your carbohydrate intake (bread, especially white bread, pasta, rice, especially white rice, cakes, muffins, everything that has wheat in it). I said cut, not eliminate them. Eat MORE MEAT, protein keeps your muscles in good shape, and you burn fat. Drink lots of water before eating, you will feel fuller. Eat 5 small meals a day, never skip breakfast. Eat food such as vegetables, green ones, fruits, food with high fibre, such as buckwheat, brown rice, drink low fat milk 3 times a day, again drink water, eat oatmeal.

   Losing weight is an extremely hard thing, don’t get discouraged if it gets hard, there are not fast results if you don’t exercise, such as jogging 30 mins every other day. I didn’t say you can’t lose weight without exercising. Stick to it, keep in mind the results, you’ll feel accomplished, with a boosted self confidence.

   LOL I am trying to gain weight… im actually “overweight” but I lke being thick im about size 10..but im also 5’8” you’d probably call me fat 😉 but anyway someone else said to gain and lose alike you have to remember to eat… Since you are trying to lose you want to eat at least 5 meals a day.. sounds crazy but in reality the more often you eat the more metabolism kicks up… Just eat small portions though, breakfast should be your biggest meal, dinner your lightest, and make sure not to eat three hours or less before sleeping, you will pack it on if you do… lunch try to eat a moderate amount, if you have a work heavy type of job you can eat more cause youll burn it off, but to be safe those extra two meals im talking about (snacks) make sure you try to eat them, something like fruits, nuts, or anything else light and few in calories, this will keep you from being too hungry It is very helpful to drink alot of water which will not only help flush fat out but also keep you full, try drinking alot before meals and during. And then wait to see if you are still hungry. Very possible and common that hunger is mistaken for thirst. Water though, no Koolaid or Pepsi… Also these snacks as well as some of your main meals should have fiber in them… Fruits leafy greens are good sources. They will fill you up. If you are not used to eating alot of fiber you may become backed up or gassy… This is why its important to drink alot of water to help work it through your system. Never wait till you are TOO hungry to eat because not only will you eat more but you will retain because now your metablolism has slowed. Much like why they say dont starve yourself…. Next stay away from salt as much as possible, and sodas they will bloat you. I Layed off these and lost what I thought was five pounds of fat. People dont realize that alot of weight is caused my water retention from salt and sugar, not just your gut or face but even in your thighs and arms.
   Next cardio my dear… stay around MINIMUM 30 minutes every other day. You can do it believe me. I hate that damn cardio cause I waste away easy.

   You have plenty of time atleast 3 or 4 months.
   Losing weight is all about switching things out.
   You can lose about 2 pounds a week healthily with my plan

   Here are some good tips that will help and make a huge difference.
   -Cut out soda and fruit juices Try to drink alot of water this alone will make a big difference
   -Stop eating sweets/junk food alot. It is okay in moderation.
   -Portion size is important. (i left a link at the bottom to make sure your eating the rihgt portion)
   -Switch from normal pasta to whole wheat and normal rice to brown rice and white bread to whole wheat bread
   -Instead of eating candy or sweets eat fruit (raisins are my favorite on the go)
   -Instead of eating ice cream try yogurt or frozen yogurt
   -And be involved with dinner. If you still eat with your family let them know about your diet so they can make healthy choices too
   -Also, eat 3 meals a day with small snacks in between

   Here is an example of some meal ideas.

   Breakfast
   – 1 Cup Whole Grain Cereal (Ex: Special K, Cheerios) and 1/2 cup Milk (2% or Low Fat i even better)
   – Yogurt with granola or fruit
   -Fruit Salad
   -Oatmeal
   -Granola bar (if your on the go)

   Lunch
   -Salads are a great idea you can put alot of yummy things in them like tomatoes,olives,cucumbers,carrots etc.(stay away from creamy dressing theyre not that good for you)
   -Your favorite sandwich on whole wheat bread

   Dinner
   -Grilled or Broiled Chicken/Fish with your favorite vegetable and brown rice
   -Whole Grain pasta with your favorite sauce( try to stay away from creamy sauces like alfredo and butter) and a small salad
   – Nice big salad with chicken and your favorites

   Snacks
   -Raisins
   -Fruit
   -Granola bars
   -Wheat Thins
   -Vegetable cut up with dip ( Salsa and hummus are yummy and healthy)

   I really hope my tips helped also try to get in any kind of excersize you can. I recommend atleast 30 minutes 4 times a week. So get outside and have fun you can walk, jog, ride your bike anything you like!
   Good Luck

   Do not worry! Summer is still 3 months away which gives you plenty of time to get your bikini bod ! Make a workout schedule for your week and fit exercise into your day. You can walk on the treadmill or walk around the neighborhood. To make it more fun, call up a friend and ask if he/she wants to meet up for a walk. Also, if you have fios or on demand, there’s a channel for exercise called fitTV. You can also go on demand to do exercises. Simple workouts such as lunges, sit ups, walks, even yoga can help tremendously with losing weight. And just remember…you don’t have to be 110 pounds to be beautiful! Guys do find curves attractive! But most of all, even if you don’t get the body you want, you’re still beautiful in every way. Good luck (:

   Deck your desktop. In the beginning, some of my friends sent me complicated spreadsheets to help chart progress. Uh, no – not for me; I’m the kind of guy who likes taking the easy route. As such, I scoured the Web for the best desktop tool and remembered CalorieKing. You won’t find anything easier to use. Trust me, this is the one; I can keep track of everything I eat and expend (without hassle). While the statistic-addicts will love CalorieKing for its thoroughness, the utility was truly designed with non-geeks in mind. The CalorieKing Web site and service are fine on their own, but the downloadable client is what you really want to get. Pay the registration fee, man – how much is your health worth to you?

   Avoid calories in a glass. Scientists now know that the body does not register liquid calories in the same way it does solid calories. Drinking a grande caffe mocha, for instance, won’t make you feel satiated the way eating a bowl of pasta will. Which means that although the caffe mocha actually has a greater number of calories than the pasta, you’re still more likely to want a second cup from Starbucks than another plate of linguine. So monitor your intake of juice, soda, coffee drinks and wine. If you consume one of each of those beverages during the day, you’ll have taken in at least 800 extra calories by nighttime — and you’ll still be hungry. (Incidentally, alcohol may suppress the metabolism of fat, making it tougher for you to burn those calories.)

   Alternate between fasting periods and eating periods. Many people find that they can lose more weight by fasting if they do it for 2 or 3 days at a time, instead of fasting for a long period.

   Sugar substitutes are just as evil as sugar itself. Do you really think your body knows how to handle something that was man-made? Seriously. These chemically-adjusted products do not occur in the wild; there are no Splenda trees in warmer climates, nor are there NutraSweet plants in the Arctic. In some instances, taking in sugar substitutes may actually increase your levels of hunger! Let’s not forget about all the health issues that might arise from these unnatural substances. If you’re given a choice, it’s almost better to go with something your body knows how to deal with (real, unprocessed sugar). No, it’s much safer (and healthier) to stay away from blue, pink, and yellow packets entirely. Do a Web search for “Artificial Sweeteners May Damage Diet Efforts.” Then sit there and tell me they’re okay? No way.

    Well to answer your question it would take ime but here is a workout or thing that might help :

    1)Stop eating and excercise intensely. (time consumed: about a week, maybe)

    2) Dehydrate yourself. Do not drink any water, and you can lose up to 10 pounds (time consumed: a day or two)

    3) Get lipo-suction (time consumed: idk, i guess a few hours)

    4) Cut off a limb. (time consumed: instantaneous)
