try getting rid of the water weight for starters….. reduce all your sodium intake which gives you the bloated appearance .. next follow these guidelines:
) Eat 5 to 6 times a day.
2) Eat lots of veggies, lean meat and complex carbs
(low carb, low fat, high fiber, high protein.)
3) Reduce sugar intake and simple carbs. They make
you hungry fast.Cut junk food .
4) Take 2 to 3 cups of low fat milk, cheese, yogurt.
5) Do an exercise that you like
6) refrain from smoking and drinking
7) stay away from dating……….j/k

Workout 1st thing in the morning on an empty stomach. You burn fat faster this way. It’s hard to workout in the morning but it’s worthwhile.

Hi. The problem with weight loss is that you get the gain gradually, most times, and that this is a simple equation:
(energy in) - (energy out) = (net gain)
where "energy in" is energy you take in, generally from food and beverages; "energy out" is the energy used, either expended usefully (as in thinking, walking, exercising, etc.) or lost as heat (energy goes to trying to keep your internal temp about 37C = 98.6F!)…
So if you take in MORE energy than you use, you have a net gain…and THIS gets translated into fat, etc. If you take in LESS energy than you use, you have a NEG "net gain", which is a POS net LOSS…and this means that you can use up stored energy reserves.
A major problem that people often face is that they attempt to cure a weight issue with only tackling ONE of the 2 factors in the above equation: either eating a bit less (i.e., reducing intake) or exercising a bit more (i.e., increasing activity = inc. energy usage). The problem is partly that the amount you generally need to trim is substantial enough that denying yourself the food will leave you feeling hungry, and trying to work out enough might kill you if you are out of shape!
Another factor is that your body has its own way of reacting to changes; I have read that, if you try starving yourself, you can actually make the problem WORSE because the body will say, "Uh oh! Food is SCARCE!" and so it will tend to store MORE when you DO eat!
Further, you can help to "stoke the furnace" via various means; it has been noted that eating a breakfast helps to increase your metabolism rate for that day–so skipping breakfast to "help your dieting" is NOT the thing to do! Another thing you may have noticed is that guys in cross-country running (for instance) often get lean and can eat anything and burn it all up…so LOTS of exercise also affects things.
So there are some things to keep in mind:
1) do BOTH: eat "right"/"sensibly" AND exercise right/sensibly…
2) don’t skip breakfast
3) If you are hungry, eat. But don’t eat if you are NOT. If food is used to comfort you, then you’ll know if you keep asking yourself, "Am I REALLY hungry? Or do I just have the munchies?" This can work!
4) Develop a food strategy:
a) Use substitution to help keep you full. Instead of sugared/sweetened foods, eat more fruits (and nuts). Instead of pop or other drinks, use water. Have soup instead of the greasy burger–you’ll feel full and have a lot fewer calories, generally.
b) Avoid obviously-bad choices. Deep-fried foods, greasy foods, fatty foods all come to mind. If you do any cooking at all, you can see that fish and poultry are a LOT less fatty than beef or pork…do those substitutions, too! Avoid fries, etc.
c) Increase your intake of fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, if possible. Lots of diets are lacking in these and you can be missing whatever amounts of trace elements YOUR personal biochemistry requires for the proper functioning.
d) STAY HYDRATED. Models do this partially to keep from eating, partially to keep their skin nice; it also helps things to work better, avoids at least some headaches, etc. So why not do this? In fact, why not give up pop for water?
Just some tips…there are tons of others. Most "diets" don’t work because you need to change the lifestyle that got you heavy, not just turn on/off a switch for a few weeks or days.
Take care and best of luck; I am also looking to lose several pounds (60 would make me happy).
