If you want to loose weight, my best advice is to take up cardio. You should try running, swimming, and dancing. If there's a sport you especially like, play it as much as you can. That way your having fun. If you want to tone muscle, lift weights and do some crunches on a stability ball. Now for the eating part, DON'T STARVE YOURSELF. Not only will you gain the weight back after, you'll ruin your metabolism and it is extrememly unhealthy for your body. Just eat healthy, which means lots of fruits and veggies, and less sweets and fats. Hope this helps.

Well, starving yourself isn't the answer. When you starve yourself, you lose weight too quickly and your body releases chemicals that make you smell HORRIBLE. Oh yeah, and your body eats away your organs.
Now as far as exercise; there are sooo many diets out there, and most of them work about the same. Treadmills are bad for your knees, so I'd recommend an elliptical running machine, or a bike. Either way if you want to lose (fat) weight, it needs to be cardio exercising. Weigh lifting mostly just builds muscle.
Right now what I'm doing is going every other day on an elliptical machine. You can look them up on Google image search if you don't know what they are. It's good to do cardiovascular exercise for about 30 mins at a time.
Oh yeah, I just learned that Gatoraid is a life saver. Seriously, there was an immense difference when I worked out with and without Gatoraid. It gave me enough energy to keep going for a while.
Junk foods around the house need to go. It's always good to have healthier alternatives. If you have junk around and easily accessible, you'll pretty much find yourself eating it.
Hope this helps, good luck! I'm doing the same thing as you right now.
