Can somebody please help me on some weight loss tips? -

I m sick and tired of feeling pudgy and crappy...I m currently 5 6 175lbs..i d like to lose 30-40 pounds...actually, i kindve have a good idea what to do, but i just dont want to screw it up... for instance, a month ago i tried the atkins diet ..while i loved the idea of eating meat, cheese and eggs... after about the first week i felt so carbohydrate deprived and drained, i didnt even make it half way through the first phase! the bottom line is, i dont like low carb diets, low sugar diets or low fat diets...i like a little bit of variety in my diet, something from everything... so heres my main question...if i use a diet consisting of turkey, chicken, fish, egg whites, fat free cheese, oatmeal, fruits, veggies, nuts, whole wheat bread, whole grain rice and keep it in a calorie deficit and exercise 5-6 days a week will i lose weight? the real thing im worried about is the whole wheat bread and rice..i wouldnt eat much at all...just 2 slices of bread on a sandwich for lunch and a half a cup of brown rice during dinner...thats all

well maybe diets just aren t for you...i would try just eating small meals throughout the day and making sure that they re proportioned to that of the food pyramid (so your getting what you re supposed to be getting). the timing is also important, like dont eat at least two hours before you sleep since you wont be awake to burn off those caloriesfinally, go on walks or just do things that you like which requires you to move a little, doesn t have to be anything too strenuous. just as long as you enjoy the activity
