Eat a small breakfast, and a small lunch, and then for dinner just eat a huge salad, and after a month of doing that plus exercise daily - you will lose a lot.
As for that dinner salad, put cheese, meat, fatning dressing- whatever you want on it.
Then abotu an hour after you eat it you will be hungry again and you will lose maybe 5 to 20 pounds in a month.

My friend says she tried some liquid extract weight loss, it had some Hoodia in it and she lost 1 pound a week. Natural weight loss
Not much loss, but something.

Yes it’s good to think that you have to lose weight. Once you have made up your mind to lose weight, you should make the commitment to the weight loss tips and go into it with a positive attitude. So many weight loss tips but i am going to describes few of points here:Take healthy and suitable diet mostly green vegetable. Drinking water as much as possible, don’t allow yourself to go hungry. You should do exercise regularly.You can take some of weight loss pills.

i recently lost 10 pounds by eating right and exercising. i ate four small meals a day, mostly consisting of fruits and a normal dinner. also its totally ok to splurge every once in a while and have some bad foods cause i did during my weight loss! also remember, in order to lose weight, dont focus on not eating many calories cause each metabolism needs a certain amound of calories a day to burn fat and lose weight!
good luck!

You could be turning the fat to muscle and therefore, the scales won't show a loss of weight.. Keep going, it usually takes several weeks before you see a difference on the scale, but you should see a difference in a few weeks with the clothes you wear, feeling to big for you.

It's normal.

I lost 11 pounds from december 08-april 09; I joined the gym at my school, and even made a special calendar that I put stickers on when I actually went to the gym. Childish, I know, but a reward system that isn't food really motivated me to exercise--I wanted to gain my sticker each day. I also didnt exercise strictly to lose weight, I just wanted to maintain myself. I noticed after about the second week that my metabolism really jumped up, as I was always hungry.

I haven't really restricted my foods, I just take everything in moderation. I make sure that with my dinners especially, that any meat I have is no larger than the size of a deck of cards, and roughly 2/3 of my plate are steamed veggies. I think we put too much pressure on ourselves to lose weight; we set our goals too high. Instead, start low and praise yourself; if you lose one pound in a week, feel happy about it and keep doing what you're doing. The first part in feeling good about yourself is to be your best support system. Whether you lose 1 pound, 10 pounds, or 100 pounds, any loss is better than a gain.

I think the stickers as a reward system is a great idea - whatever works will work!
