Track your food for 3-5 days and see how much you are eating - this would be the amount you eat to stay at the same weight (assuming your weight is currently stable)

The next step is to take that food diary and either make your portions smaller, or eliminate all the junk food and alcohol, and eat like that for a week or two. If you lose 1-2 pounds a week then stick with it. If not you can try other things like swap any drinks you are having for water, or even adding some exercise into your routine (walking is fine!).

Since you haven't given any details such as how tall you are, whether you are male or female and how much you weigh at this time. I am going to suggest you visit your doctor before you start any diet.

Anyone who is looking to lose any great amount of weight should have a physical before starting any diet. Then your dieting should be monitored by your doctor and only lose the weight your doctor recommends.

Which brings us to the second reason for seeing your doctor first. Not knowing anything about you I cannot advise as to whether or not you need to lose weight. Some young women always think they need to lose weight when they are already underweight. Fact is it is far more dangerous medically to be 10 pounds underweight than 10 pounds overweight.

When you are underweight and you diet you do not take in enough calories for the body to maintain itself. This is what your body fat is for as when the body needs more calories than what is taken in it goes to its reserves the body fat for what it needs. If the reserves are not there this is where the trouble and the medical problems begin as the body will start to shut down those systems it feel it doesn't need.

The bodies priority is to keep the brain alive. It will do so by shutting down different systems until there is nothing left to shut down. Then you die. This is what eventually kills people suffering with anorexia.

So first make sure you need to lose weight. It may be you just need to tone up certain areas of your body which is much different than what you need to do to lose weight.

Start with just pushing the plate when you think you had enough dont overeat.
Next is you seriously have to be moving your body because its like a river it has to be flowing in order to be clear.
You can start by finding someone who already is running or going hiking and ask him if you could join him or her.This way you can have somebody who holds you accountable.
