What helped for me:
- Cut down on sweets. Have like a cookie once a day or so. If you’re not too bothered about the extra pennies, by diet cookies and such.
- When hungry in between meals, eat fruits. (Don’t always eat the same fruit though, it can get boring really fast). You’d be surprised how filling they can be.
- WATER WATER WATER!!! So cut down on the soda. Have maybe like a glass a day (if you really do like soda, get the no sugar ones. They’re actually really nice once you get used to the different taste).
- Dont skip meals. Just eat the meal you want but lower your portions if it’s something with a lot of calories.
- Have a cheat day! This is really important and it’s easier to hold on to your diet but don’t overdo it though (meaning don’t go crazy. Don’t start eating a lot of high calorie foods, just have a few things you’ve been cutting out every other day of the week).
- Spend at least 30 minutes a day exercising but don’t go hardcore right away. Relax your muscles and build up from there on. If you’re not used to exercising a lot, you will feel sore at first but it gets better. Your body just has to get used to it. Hell, if you don’t like running, go for a walk or google some exercises you can do at home (from there on you can look for things specifically for your “problem areas”). Anything is better than nothing at all.
- If you have the choice to take the elevator and the stairs, go for the stairs. Every little bit counts.
That’s pretty much what has done it for me.

This all sounds like great stuff. Thanks for the response my dude.

Diet sodas are actually worse for you, believe or not. Your body has a hard time processing the artificial sweeteners

Oh? Heard that with the light versions (or diet ones as you all call it) you might as well drink the normal ones... But the zero ones are good. Like the Coca Cola Zero? If it true... Well damn. Might as well just go buy the normal ones again.

They put the fake aspartame crap in it. It’s hard for the body to process and it’s a carcinogen

Oh... Good to know then! Thank you.
