   You need to come up with an exercise plan. You need at least 30 minutes of exercise a day. Sounds horrible, I’m sure, but there are lots of fun ways to do it. I’d look into a Zumba class- which is a dance fitness class which is fast paced dancing to Latino music. There’s also the video game Dance Dance Revolution which is fun to play and gets you up and moving. There are lots of fun ways to exercise. You may want to get a friend to do it with you. Another plus, is the exercise will make you feel better because your body will be happy, which means you will be happier too.

   Also, you need to cut out fatty foods and maybe cut down on portions. Americans over portion everything. So, cut out the Burger King and McDonalds because that is NO good for you. Eat healthier. NO pop- it’s all sugar, and sugar also makes you sluggish and lazy- which will make you not want to exercise.

   So…
   A) Exercise
   B) Cut out fast foods and pop
   C) Eat healthier meals
   D) Eat smaller portions throughout the day instead of three big meals.

   Try joining a sports team at school, that way you will be physically active and make friends at the same time. Drink plenty of water, eat healthy foods, no greasy foods!!! Make sure you have plenty of small meals throughout the day. Don’t starve yourself because your body will go into starvation mode and retain liquid and fat. Also, remember to have fun, enjoy yourself your still young and you have alot of growing to do. Your body is constantly changing.

   1 Dietary Balance and reading labels: watch what you eat, and expend more energy than you consume. It’s really that simple. This involves some calculation. Eat less and eat at least five meals a day. Your actual caloric requirement can differ depending on your height, weight, activity level and your body’s metabolic rate.

   2 Identify your exercise. No exercise was created equal. You might like running, so run. You might like jogging, so jog. You might like stationary bikes, so bike stationary. Find the one that works best for you. Don’t pick a routine that you don’t like and won’t stick with it for long.

   3 Try yoga. Yoga is one of the best ways of losing weight. Of course I can’t go into a full lecture about yoga over here but I can tell you that I have never seen people with better-toned bodies than those who practice yoga. One of the benefits of yoga is that you learn to control virtually every muscle and joint of your body so that the issue of weight gain will cease to exist.

   4 Photos and Joining online support group : Take before and after photos. There’s no easier way to illustrate your progress. It’s essential that you not feel alone, and reaching out to friends helps as they know things that you couldn’t possibly know, and they’ve probably been “in your shoes” at some point in the past (or present). Share stories, laughter, tears, successes, and failures. There are thousands of communities out there, so keep looking until you find one that fits you.

   5 Water you waiting for If you’re not drinking enough water, your body will let you know. Thirst is an amazing sensation – quench it. If you’re not hydrated, your body won’t be working at peak levels. If you’re worried about “water weight,” remember that you’re likely to retain more water when you’re not giving your body enough of it in the first place. I’m not going to dictate how many glasses you should drink, though – as that’s going to vary from person to person.

   6 Zone out. There’s a reason why people exercise to their favorite music – listening to external stimulus takes your mind off of the physical activity making “exercise time” fly or situate yourself in front of TV or video games involving exercises.

   7 Dance Out Do Salsa,tango, swing ,hip-hop dancing etc. Anyone can do it,keep in mind you are dancing to increase your physical activity, so there is no pressure on how well you perform dance. Who knows you might even learn a cool dance move or two

   8 Sleep it off. To be an efficient fat-burning machine, If you think that you’re doing yourself a favor by sleeping less, you’re mistaken. Give your body time to rest itself, both mentally and physically. Sleep is very, very important.

   9 Keep a food diary. All you have to do is jot down what, when, and how much you eat in a notebook, or you can do it online at a Web site . A food diary gives a clear picture of your current eating habits so you can identify the changes you need to make to lose weight.

   10 Be motivated.You need to believe in yourself!. Learn to evaluate your efforts fairly and objectively. When you have thought of giving up, visualize how good you will look when you manage to slim down successfully.
