I'm trying to lose weight at the moment too and here are some things that are really helping me:
-Do a bit of <b>exercise</b> every morning before breakfast (YOU MUST EAT BREAKFAST!!!) I do 5-10 minutes skipping in my backyard! It speeds up your metabolism for the whole day so you burn all your calories quicker.
-<b>Drink water</b>. I bought a pink water flask which I keep with me all the time. I fill it up whenever its empty and I now drink water out of habit. It's great because it keeps away hunger!
-<b>High fibre, medium protein, low carb!</b> I'm eating a lot of fibre and protein: Like All Bran for breakfast, Bean Salads, Eggs (boiled, scrambled,poached, omlettes) lots of fruit and veg (raw carrots are my snack of choice when I get a case of the munchies!) Lean chicken, A LOT OF FISH! And for desserts (because I have a serious sweet tooth problem) what I take is natural or vanilla yoghurt and baked fruit with a bit of honey!
-Really try and stay away from refined carbs- ie white bread, white pasta, white rice etc etc etc. This is what your body will use for energy instead of your body fat! Instead go for wholemeal choices (which I even find tastier myself)
-Eating hot foods like chilis and currys are really good for speeding up your metabolism.
-Go <b>jogging</b>! I know it seems like a pain in the ass but recently I started up <b>jogging</b>- just around my park and it is making such a difference- I really should have started it earlier. I just put my iPod on at full blast and I couild jog for hours!
-Get involved in a sport. I know it's hard in summer with no school sport so kinda harder to get motivated. In Sept I'll be rejoining my hockey team and with training at least 4 times a week, I'm sure pounds wil drop off. So maybe you could join a team too. <b>Dancing</b> I find is great also- at the disco, in the bedroom, wherever!
-Everytime you have a shower, spend a minute or two...or three... under the really cold setting. Your body will burn calories trying to get yourself warmer again. Also its great for your hair and skin!
-While watching TV, I sometimes do sit ups or lunges or star jumps or whatever...anything is better than staying still for a long time
-Take your time eating food. Put down your knife and fork between bites and chew your food, tasting all the flavours on your tongue and feeling how full you are. It takes around 20 minutes after starting eating your dinner for your stomach to tell your brain that you are full and to stop eating. So slow it down and ENJOY the food you have in front of you!
Sorry, my answer is a bit long and congrats if you've bothered even reading down this far. Hope it all helps!!!
