YES! i love my boyfriend's siter and my mentor anf friend. she gave me this really great p.m. conditioning for weight loss yoga set for my yule gift! i really love it and i plan on trying it out tomorrow night. i'm hoping it'll help with my semi-insomniac behavior lately by relaxing me while helping me lose weight. i plan to do taebo for 30 min. first thing in the morning to get me energized and to burn calories and to use my new yoga set at night to calm me down and stretch out my muscles and tone...

Hi Jessica, Try to use as little butter as possible or use a low fat spread. Tell you parents that you are going to give up chips etc as a new years resolution so you dont want any fatty foods for dinner. Gte an aerobics book out of the library and do some. If you have a stairs, run up and down it. Try and go swimming regularly with a friend because it is a really good and fun way to get exercise.

Alot of times if you start a really extreme diet you will be more likely to "pig out" often, so just start out with a siple diet and gradually (sp?) work you're way up, its worked for me so far!

Ht. 5'5", Start: 158 lb, Today: 126 lb (BMI %tile: 66), Goal: 115 lb - hey, everyone's been asking me how i went from 5'3" 158 pounds to 5'4.5" 126.5 pounds. well the first thing i wanna say is that it was not easy. weight loss is not any easy goal to acomplish, so if you dont suceed the first time dont give up, it'll take a couple of tries before it actually works. over summer i was very active. i didnt go out and take a jog or anything, just normal activities, walking around with friends, swimming, stuff like that. i also watched what i was eating. it took awhile to get it all off, but eventually it did. be patient and dont give up. good luck everyone!

The best way to start losing weight is to set a reasonable goal.
Then, start by cutting down your portion size at meals. If you serve yourself, just take one scoop of pasta less than you normally take. If your mom serves you, or you have tv dinners, cafeteria lunches, etc... then just leave a little bit of each thing on the plate.
In regards to junk food, put a small amount in baggies; then put the baggies in a special cupboard.
Allow yourself one a day.
Also, if you find yourself sneaking food because you don't want your mom to know you are eating (I did that alot), ask yourself why you are sneaking it. If you need to sneak it, do you really need to be eating it?
Good luck!

Donuts areally fatening. You should not eat them that often. I used to eat very badly, but I set a goal for myself, and reached it. Instead of sweets, I ate fruits and vegies, and instead of watching tv, I went for walks around the block. It really works. It's been 2 years now of eating healthy, and I have lost about 40 pounds. You can do it if you really want.

Don't take on more tha you can hadle. It's not that I don't think you can't handle it, it's just that sometimes I make a huge plan for myself instead of taking it a day at a time. this makes me overwhelmed. I try to make smaller goals.

Mandie,I know exactly what your going through I'm also 12 I weigh about 237 or something like that.Anyway I think you should try exercising at least one hour a day and when you're thisty don't drink juice ,drink water instead and when you see your favorite music videos playing don't just watch it you could dance to it.I hope you reach your goal.

eat the healthiest stuff first before you dig into the yummy stuff that you know you won't be able to stop and eat as slow as you can- put your fork down between bites so you'll notice the full feeling sooner...

Courtney what did you do to lose the 30 pounds? And this is what you should do to lose 15 more pounds: eat what you want just small portions and exercise 30 minutes everyday do something with your legs if you wnat to lose that fat there walk, run, bike, etc. and do 20 squats or lunges.

hey yall wuts crackalackin? I'm just tryin to tell ya, that no matter what diet you are on, it is easier to stay on it if you plan your meals ahead of time. I dont really know about planing your activities time, cause i know that i irritate myself when i do that and i dont stick to it, but when you plan your meals, ya have to eat and then you know exactly what you should eat, and how much of it you need to fill you up. talk to ya later-peace out
