Like switch to 1% milk and then work your way down to skim milk, use 50% light cheese, fat free mayonnaise (I prefer fat free miracle whip. It has more flavor) and stuff like that. Eat high in fiber foods like whole wheat bread instead of white. Instead of eating regular pizza try frozen smartones or south beach diet pizzas. And instead of ice cream try south beach diet cookies and weightwatchers ice cream bars and cake. Some things I find helpful is to eat a small salad with fat free dressing with lunch and dinner. It makes you more full when you go to eat your main meal. Don't use too much butter either and don't eat too many sweets. Make sure you don't have soda or chips on a regular basis. Eat LOTS of fruits and vegetables. And drink A LOT of water! Exercise daily. You can walk, or you can run, or ride your bike, or swim. Whatever you choose to do make sure you exercise for at least an hour daily. If you want you can just walk for thrity minutes and then swim for a little while and then just do outside play like jumping on a trampoline or playing basketball. weigh yourself every week and keep track of your weight. if you feel like snacking try drinking flavored water to satisfie your sweet tooth. Pay attention to portion sizes. If the serving size is one cup, don't have more than one cup. Portion sizes are one of the most important things in dieting. And remember to have faith in yourself. If you get yourself down it'll be ten times harder. And also remember to let go every once in a while and eat something that isn't in your diet! Good luck!

Reply from Julie, Age 16 - 08/19/05 - IP#: 4.242.171.xxx one tip, is to eat losts of negative calorie foods, like apples, and celerie (google it to find a complete list) These foods take more calories to burn than they actually contain. So, say an apple has 60 calories, it will take about 100 calories for your body to digest it (I'm not sure about the numbers, but it gives you the idea, hopefully). Try not to eat past 6 at night (or possibly 5 if it works with your schedule.). As for the exercise, just get busy. Go running once a day, or biking. Make sure it becomes part of your daily routine. Good luck!!! If you want to talk, or share your success or anything, email me at dragonzrule_759@hotmail.com Good luck!!!

NO MATTER HOW HARD IT GETS, KEEP THE WILL NOT TO OVEREAT AND STOP SNACKING. THINGS TO AVOID COMPLETELY: FAST FOOD AND SNACKS.
