Okay, here’s what I do. I drink plenty of water and drink only diet soda. I don’t use butter or oils to cook my food in, I use spices and herbs. Eat a good breakfast filled with carbs and a healthy lunch. Dinner time I eat chicken or fish and a vegetable to go along, no carbs. When I’m craving something to eat for a snack I have rice cakes, popcorn (no butter) fruit, celery or carrot sticks. Again, this is what I do. Hope some of my tips helped. Good luck!

You can’t lose weight that quickly and be healthy. Maybe if you had the flu until the end of august. But otherwise, I think it is reasonable to expect to lose 1-2lbs per week. The southbeach diet is currently helping me lose weight. And, depending on your current weight and how strict you are, you can lose a lot of weight the first two weeks in phase 1. If you need to lose 30lbs, I’m guessing you could lose about 7-9lbs in the first two weeks. I motivate myself by realizing that I no longer enjoy swimming in my bikini and by not buying myself pants to replace the ones that no longer fit in….I love clothes so living with 3 pairs of pants sucks. Also I know that if I just go out in exercise, no matter how terrible it sounds at the moment, I will always be happy that I didn’t sit around. Good luck!

Honestly, any of them. You are the only person who can decide what is best for you.

People will ist all kinds of stuff here, but truthfully you probably don’t even have access to half of the arts people will put here.

You get WAY more info from the Yellow Pages then on here.

Find out what schools are in your area and check them out. Ultimately the best Martial Art for you is going to be the one you enjoy the most.

If it is some balls to the walls conditioning and you have to drive 20 minutes to get to, and at a time that also is inconvient, then chances are you won’t keep up for it.

1. Find someplace relatively close.
2. Find a time that works for you, personally I prefer one right after work, or where I can make it a schedule to go to it instead of going home. Once you go home it is very easy to talk yourself out of going back out.
3. Find some place that you enjoy, that the people are cool and are helping out individuals, and that people are sweating at.

Here is a long but good read about finding a good school: http://www.bullshido.com/articles/finding-a-good-martial-arts-school.html

All the advice here, (some of which will be good) is nice and all, but truthfully it really depends on what works for you time, money, and convenience wise. While some people are happy to drive 30 minutes to an hour for a school. They are usually already dedicated to a certain style or looking for something in particular.

I suggest just finding something good, affordable, and that you enjoy because you will stick with that much easier than something that is a pain in the @ss to do.

Pretty much every Martial Art will give you what you are looking for. Styles don’t really mean as much, training methods do. But as far as losing weight and getting active, pretty much every art does this.

Good luck!
