Cut out soda, fried foods, and sugary foods. Eat more fiber and drink 8 glasses of water, which will help fill you up and help your metabolism. Get 30 minutes of exercise per day, the more aerobic, the better. Keep a diary of daily food intake. And finally, try to enlist a friend to do the diet with you, it makes it easier to stick to it if both people have to be accountable to each other.

Try Nutrisystem. They use the glycemic index. I loved it. Just got a little costly at $300 a month for the food. You can sign up on thier website and look on the message boards. There is a guy who posts name the Jazzman who has hundred of recipes that follow the glycemic index but you can do you them at home yourself. There was another girl who post on the message boards daily. The post was called Daily Meals with Pics, or something to that effect. She also does the glycemic index at home on her own. Following it is amazing. I lost 23 lbs in 6 weeks. Good luck to you.

Don’t exercise for fat loss. Exercise for fitness.

Any exercise will burn calories but no exercise will burn fat unless your diet allows it. You can burn fat in your sleep or you can run all day and never burn any fat. It all depends on your diet.

Fat loss is determined by calorie control, not by exercise. Good exercises for burning calories are speed walking, biking, swimming, dancing, etc. And ANY other physical activity which makes you move a lot of weight for a long time. But NO exercise is good for burning fat if you eat too many calories because you can always eat more calories than you can burn.

Too many people waste energy and time because they do not understand this one simple point. The result is too often giving up in frustration, abandoning gym memberships they continue to pay for, and many other unnecessary problems not the least of which is a lack of success.

An average person must walk about five miles every day for a week to burn the calories equivalent to a pound of body fat. So, unless you think walking about five miles a day (or doing an equivalent amount of exercise) with no guarantee of fat loss makes sense, focus your fat loss program on diet.

Diet for fat loss. Exercise for fitness.
