JUMP ROPE!! it is the best exercise, period.I have been doing it for about 3 and a half months now and have lost 20 pounds! First, find a good jump rope. Here is a good one. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0007IS��Now when you get your jump rope start off easy. I started off in sets of 100 and did that for about 5 minutes. between each of the 100s take 3, 6, or 9 breaths for a little break. You will get frustrated. It will be challenging. But you will get better and be able to do it for 10 minutes non-stop at a moderate speed. What I do now is 6 sets of 10 minutes taking about a 45 second rest/water break in between each set. So that you don t get bored, set up your workout area around a tv. You will need space. But not a whole lot of space. You may have to move your tv or something but I didn t. Avoid jump roping on concrete at all costs. It s bad on your knees and ankles.What s great about jump roping is that you can always make it harder. You can go faster, take bigger jumps, double unders, etc. Also, you will need to adjust your rope, which is easy. With some simple tools you can pop off the caps cut and cut the rope where you want it. How do you know what is the right length, you ask? well, Stand on the middle of the rope with both feet and the handles should come up to your armpits. Don t cut too much off though, because then you will need another rope if you mess up.Now about eating...This is not my area of expertice but I ve heard that you should cut 500-1,000 calories from your diet. So for men you should eat 1,500 and for women it should be 1,200 but NO LESS. Instead of 3 meals a day, eat 5-6 small meals each consisting of 200-350 calories. here s an example of one of my days of eating.Breakfast, whenever you wake up which should be 7:00-8:30: 2 servings of kelloggs special K plus protein with little skim milk =240 Now if you can t stand not having very much milk pour in what it tells you to pour in for each serving which is about 160 per serving? Apple= 70 calories... all = 310-390 caloriesMini-Brunch 10:00-10:30: Dannon Light and Fit 80 calorie yogurt with Planters cashew peanuts. But easy on the cashews. I usually take about half a hand full which makes it all equal to about 150 calories all =140-170 caloriesLuch 11:45-12:30: This is usually my largest meal because I exercise after I eat lunch.deli meat sandwhich with good healthy bread and using mustard instead of mayo and cheese. =about 300 caloriesSalad =100-150 depending what you put on it. I usually have about 5 cups of salad with light dressing, feta cheese, and some sunflower seeds. YUMand you can throw about 25 grapes or something like that in there and it all = about 450 caloriesAfternoon tea?? 3:00-3:30 I usually have something filling right around this time so I don t have to much at dinner. So oatmeal, or anything hot and has fiber and protein. oatmeal = 160 calories. and you can have a small salad with that so it would = about 240 caloriesDinner 5:45-6:30: Um um um...hm..um. Usually there is something made for dinner right? So you can t control this one... but you CAN control how much you eat! Use a small plate and limit your meat portions to about a deck of cards. If you had deck of cards meat, half a baked potato, and salad that would =about 300 calories...ALL EQUALS =1,470... OH MY GOODNESS THAT S LIKE PERFECT!! lol So there you go, that s one successful day of eating uner your belt. Now here is a list of foods to avoid at all costs and foods to include in your dietNO-NOsodaany desserts...sorry but seriously cut ANY out completely. Don t even taste it because it won t satisfie you. These desserts includecake,cookies,pie,candy... you know all that stuff.pancakesbaconhot dogsmilkshakesthe list goes on, and on, and on... You know what s not good for youGOODY GOOD GOODS!Fruit such asapplesbananasstrawberriesgrapes, but not too many. Grapes are the sugariest fruit so limit those.and other such thingsSALAD salad is very low calorie so load upa good cerealoatmeal1 or 2 eggsand this list goes on and on too. again, you know what s good for you!One other thing. DRINK, MORE, WATER! From now on, water is your favorite drink. You should be having 82 ounces of water everyday or more. put water in place of fruit drinks, soda, and other stuff LOADED with sugar.HOPE ALL THIS HELPS! it worked for me so it should work for you. weigh yourself every week in the morning and measure your waist every week. GOOD LUCK!:)

http://caloriecount.about.com/cc/calorie�� -- this will determine how many calories a day would be healthy for you to lose weight... Jog for a half hour, speed-walk for 30 seconds then back to normal and so on, Crunches, Mountain climbing poses, and yoga! Medifast is a good dietary supplement, as is Emergen-C, and also Tropical Traditions Coconut Oil help people use GOBS of weight and it s healthy for you too :) hope I helped!
If you really want to lose weight, you should watch your diet and start exersizing. Dont take those dieting pills because they dont work. Dont starve yourself to death on the foods you eat. Try eating healthy foods, and between here and there you can treat yourself with some treats. But not too much treats. Good Luck!
