   most likely you are curvy because of your bones….so even if you lose weight, you will still be curvy!

   In order to lose fat you need to improve your diet (stay away from junk food).

   Here is a link that can give you guidance on how to lose weight.

   You will need to learn which foods you can eat and which food will prevent you from losing weight. Generally low fat protein sources such as chicken, turkey, and fish, egg whites, etc. are good to eat. Red meat is fine once in awhile, but if you want to lose weight it is best to stay away from it for awhile because it is higher in fat. Fruit and veggies are obviously very important too. Never eat white bread or pasta. Eat whole wheat food such as Fiber One cereal. Many cereals are high in sugar and you should avoid sugar if you want to lose weight. Oatmeal is good too, but it has to be the large flake type, Not instant or pre-packaged flavour oatmeal because it has been processed and sugar has been added in the flavoured ones. Add your own flavour to oatmeal such as cinnamon, splenda (or stevia) and vanilla. For dairy, drink skim (non-fat) milk and plain yogurt with no sugar. You can add berries to sweeten the yogurt and add flavour. Cottage cheese is also a good source of protein, it is good if you mix it with fruit, I prefer slices of orange or mandarin oranges.It’s a good idea to keep a food diary and track your weight,

   This website does all the work (calculations) for you http://www.fitday.com
   It will tell you how many calories you eat and lots of other stuff!

   You need to do cardiovascular exercise to burn fat. Some activities burn more fat than others. Here is a link where you can enter your personal information, choose an activity, duration and it will calculate the calories you burn.

   Surf the web to find others. The important thing is work hard enough to get your heart rate up.Here is a link to a target heart rate calculator.

   Weightlifting will also cause you to lose weight by raising your metabolism. The faster your metabolism is, the more calories you burn. Don’t worry, weightlifting will not cause you to look like a bodybuilder. It will tone your muscles and your body will look sexy, slim and curvy. Nobody wants to look like Nicole ‘Skeletor’ Ritchie.

   As you can see there is alot of work involved in losing fat. A HECK of alot more work than just doing sit-ups. If it was that easy everybody would be thin. It’s not easy, that’s why there are so many obese people. It takes two important things, work and education to lose weight. This should get you started!!!

   Don’t worry about your curves. If you need to lose weight and tone up, do so because it benefits your health!

   Being overweight is really a way to shorten your life. Diabetes in older years is also an unpleasant problem.

   Cosmetic issues like curves will be far from your mind if you are feeling healthy and energized and proud of your accomplishments!

   If for any reasons curves mysteriously disappear, just get a push up bra and buy jeans that accenuate what you’ve got.

   Muscle exercises and running help tone up your backside, and you can still keep a good shape. Just eat lots of fruits and vegetables, and drink more water instead of soda. It helps!

   If you want to keep your curves just do exercises like crunches (about 50 reps twice a week) and lift light-weights like 3-pounders once or twice a week for about 25 reps. per arm. I wouldn’t change my current diet if your happy with the curves you have at the moment. But if you want to deplete them a little bit to where there not quite as voluptuous then just don’t eat as much pasta or red meat (though if you like pasta as much as I do you can switch to whole-grain) and cut down on the snacks (not completely cutting them out but just lightening up). Be careful about toning your upper arms and/or shoulders because this can reduce your bust-size by a little (also sometimes if you work out your upper abs a whole, whole lot it can have the same effect).
