Can someone help me figure out how to lose weight with out having to really kill myself? -

I am still trying to lose the baby fat and its been over a year I know that sounds kind of lazy but I really need help I feel the weight on my body becoming out of control. I am about 40 pounds over weight please someone help me!

Here are some tips I hope will help u:eat these foods for faster weight lossturkey slices(they have them in the deli section with only 45 calories per serving)Kashi cereals(all are whole grain and taste great!)All bran crackers are a good source of fiber and whole grainsSouth beach diet bars in the peanut butter chocolate or vanilla crunch(taste great!)carrotssalsa(dip your veggies in them because it fights cravings and speeds up metabolism) anything spicy helps to speed metabolismcelery(burn more calories eating)blueberrie(great form of antioxidants)green tea(speeds up metabolism)water (drink 16 ounces first thing in the morning to help speed metabolism and an additional 80 throughout the day. believe me this helps with faster weight loss especially if the water is ice water cause your body has to work hard to warm it up thus helping you burn more calories)whole grain bread or whole wheat bread (no white!)salad dressings that are low calorie such as the ones you spray(10 cal for 10 sprays)8th continent soy milk has only 50 cals for 8 ouncesfat free cheddar cheeseegg whiteslow fat yogurt such as light and fit 60 cals per containerlow calorie soups (fill you up fast)bran buds(lots of fiber to keep you full plus aids in digestion and faster weight loss)As far as execise goes find something that you love doing and stick with it. For instance here are some form of cardio you could do: Elliptical, swimming, running (best form), speed walk, stair climb, or bike riding. Do 1 and a half hours a day 5 times a week and youll see results fast. Go to a gym and do some strength training a few times a week or if you cant just make sure you are stretching a lot before and after a workout. If you dont have time to really work out a lot because I could understand its tough with a child maybe try taking long walks with the stroller in your neighborhood. Speed walking is great and any exercise is better than nothing at all. Weight loss is frustrating, I know from experience. One tip is not to weigh yourself until a couple of weeks or perhaps even months. Just judge how your clothes are fitting you. Muscle weighs more than fat so at first you may not think your losing weight but your really starting to look better. YOu be the judge, you dont need to scale to tell you. Other tips6 small meals are best but try and keep lots and protein and fiber at at least 3 of your meals to ensure you feel full and satisfied.dont eat past 7:00 at night or the food will just lay in your stomachkeep a food diary to make sure your not going over your calorie limit. Try and stay between the 1300-1500 calorie line you could even try 1200 calories IF you want to do it quicklyAlso once in a while it is ok to indulge a bit, but dont go overboard. Studies show it can boost your metabolism.I wish you the best of luck with your weight loss journey
