How do you start off a diet? Or more or less a life change? I want to loose 15 pounds, I'm 5'0 & maybe about 130 pounds. I'd kill to be 115. But I also want to be active, So I understand my weight might go up from muscle, But I want to loose my tummy. I know that will take sometime, Im willing. How do I get motavied (sp?) and start a life change? (link)

Eat healthy and get excercise. NEVER starve yourself, because not only do you not get nutrients, but it also lowers your metabolism. Metabolism is when your body burns off calories. If your metabolism is low, not a lot of calories will get burned. I'm assuming that you're a girl because you want to tone up. Try running or pretty much anything cardiovascular. Cardiovascular excercises burn fat, calories, carbohydrates, and sugar. Remember, if you don't eat right, you probably won't lose any weight, even if you still excercise. To get motivated, think about the results that you will get if you work hard. Excercising also has several benifits. You will have more energy, not get tired as easily, sleep better, and have more confidence, among others. You might want to think about trying pilates. Also, try this link
