Healthy weight loss? -

I m a female and 5 6 I weigh about 155 pounds. I would really like to lose 15 to 20 pounds. Does anyone have any heathy suggestions? What about ways to stay motivated?

I will share the motivation I used maybe some will apply to you: living to see my daughter graduate high school/college, living to see my first grandchild born, getting married again (did it last weekend), planning and completing my dream house, being promoted at work upon the retirement of my boss, purchasing a car skinny people can only sit in, wearing a size of jeans with only one digit (ex. 8,6...), being apply to stop the excessive amount of medication due to be over 300 lbs (done), being able to go somewhere with my daughter w/o feeling I am not shaming her due to my weight, flying on a plane without overlapping into the seats next to me, generally to attain a health body/mind, oh yes the moments shared between two people are always better without excess weight--------------------------------------��below are a few things I do, I have lost 85 lbs over 5 months, being as I still have over 50lbs to lose you have 15 lbs some of the suggests may be to hard corekeep an online food diary www.myfooddiary.com is a very popular one, I have been doing the food diary for over 5 months and the shock of the little things you eat is incredible -- making yourself accountable for everything you put in your mouth helps, along with weight tracking you can see trends work to correct the flawsbreakfast protein powder w/ milk or protein shakelunch small salad - either cobb, club etc....dinner protein powder w/ milk or protein shakethe snacks I do are sugar free jello or sugar free pudding ( the jello is actually lower in calories fat, so try to stick to it for a snack)2-3 cups of coffee/tea are ok, no pop not even diet pop - lately studies have been showing that artificial sugars are making it hard for our bodies to shed those extra poundsthe fluffy/coffee s add alot of unwanted calories to your daily diet -- cutting those out alone will help tremendouslymy absolute no-no��s are NO bread, Nothing with flour (any variety of flour), Nothing carbonated, obviously No candy or junk food of any kind, No skipping a meal even if it is a very small meal, eating 3 �C 4 times a day is very important when reducing intake trying to loose weight4+ 16 oz bottles of water (at least) -- drinking lots of water is very important to weight loss calcium, vitamin C B12 E, multi-vitamin, fiber -------- these supplements are very important as you are cutting back your normal food intake, they will help you keep your energy level up exercise 45 - 60 minutes a day, or at least 3 times a weekhelpful side note --- remove ALL temptation clean your house of all junk food, candy, heavy carb foods - basically anything you should not eat, should not be in your reach -- clean out your office space as well, avoid the office areas which usually contain the fatty/junk foodsyes these are hard things to do, but if you want to meet your goal it will be well worth it good luck - I hope I have helped

Eat healthily and exercise.And for motivation you could try getting some pictures of how you want your body to look and put them somewhere you ll see them, perhaps as your screensaver?And then they ll keep you motivated!

Hit the gym every day for an hour. Do cardio and weight lifting (cardio to get rid of fat, weight lifting to tone up). Change your eating habits...drop out sodas, candies, and sweets. Buy low-fat, whole grains, fruits and vegetables. To stay motivated, invest in an iPod and put really loud hip-hop on. When you re working out, hip-hop has a great beat and keeps you moving.If you have any other questions, just email me.Good luck
