Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew any good diets that dancers go on. I'm a bit chubby and i wanna start to slim down and watch my weight. So, any tips or anything will be great!

Google BMR calculator and click and link that will calculate your BMR for free. BMR is how much your body burns in an avg. day. From that, take about 500 calories. The remaining number should be the amount of calories you should consume daily. If you keep that number of calories for a week, you'll lose a pound per week. Keep doing that until you achieve your desired weight. After that, eat the same amount of BMR you have but never over. If cutting down 500 cals make it like 1200 or 1000calories, instead of cutting out the 500 from food, exercise those 500 calories off.
Also, stay away from junk food, including soda (even if it's diet), fast food, pizzas, fried foods, stir fried foods. Try to eat food in their most natural form. Eat healthy foods and avoid high fat foods.
Exercise daily if you can. Run every other day or something like that.
If you'd like, go to my forum and click the topics that says "Lose Weight" and "Carbs, Proteins, FAt" (Or something like that) and something about eating tips? Haha.
