I take it you're young. And if you are, crash diets aren't the answer, but here goes anyways.
DO'S
- Run at least a mile a week. You don't have to run a mile the first day, but work up to it. =) And don't run horribly fast, pace yourself so you don't get tired so quickly.
- Exercise for 30 minutes a day, everyday.
- Give up junk food. That means sweets, fast food & sodas. Anything with lots of sugar is a no no.
- Drink 8 glasses of water a day. And 4 glasses of milk a day. You'll pee a lot, but it boosts your metabolism, and helps you to lose weight.
- Eat healthy. Veggies, fruits & meats are essential. Try not to eat fats/oils a lot.
- Make sure to eat lots of dairy. Yogurt & cheese specifically. If you're lactose intolerant like me, eat them sparingly so you don't get sick.
DON'Ts
- Do not exercise before bed. [Exercising makes your muscles work & move. Your muscles should be relaxed before bedtime so it's easier to get to sleep.]
- Don't eat before bed. Your digestive system slows down at night, so the food will sit there & eventually make you gain weight.
- When you see results, don't stop what you've been doing. If you stop, all the weight will just come back, and everything you've worked on will basically have been a waste of your time.
- Don't be discouraged if you gain weight. Muscle weighs more than fat.

well if you want to tone up your legs i suggest a LOT of wall sits, and good ones too---cause if you do them half ass nothing will happen to your legs,,,, and lunges are good when getting you legs in shape, buttkicks(when you run make sure your heel hits your butt), ummmm knee to chest runs(when you run make sure you knees go up to your chest), hmmmm vertical crunchs help a lot with the lower belly
if you need more ideas---or just have any questions on how to do these exercises just let me know
good luck!!
