I was in awesome shape this fall from soccer, but now i'm not doing a sport and have sort of fallen into a rut. i'm not fat, i just want to tone my arms and lose a little chub. any tips on diet, exercise, motivation- anything would be helpful, thanks!

eat what you like, just do it in small proportions. drink lots of water. atleast 8 glasses a day. protein helps build muscles & carbs give you energy; so with each meal & snack have a little bit of carbs & protien.
excersise atleast thirty minutes a day in a target area. like one day work on your arms, the next your core, and after that your legs or something like that. if you don't think you have enough time to excersise then do jumping jacks, sit ups or push ups during commercials.
for motivation i drew a food pyramid & put it on my fridge to remind myself to eat right and stuff.
Hope i helped

Yoga, yoga can really help you lose weight, and tone your muscles! and if you don't want to go to a gym for yoga, you can get a yoga lesson on DVD. and if you want a simple diet that isn't big, do the one I did. Don't drink any soda after 6(and try not to drink that much soda at all) and try not to eat any sweets, and eat lots of fruit and just eat healthy! And for those two weeks, don't get on a scale! If you get on the scale, you'll (maybe) be upset or angry that you haven't lost weight. I wish you the best of luck!
