I've been overweight for so long, it's finally time to do something serious about it, so i'm so glad I found this board. So I have 71 pounds to go for my goal weight, so I have lots of work to do! I started on the 29th January, and I hope to have lost 12 pounds by 1st March. I think I'm doing enough exercise as I dance for atleast 5 hours a week, do 30 sit-ups a day and also play wii fit at home, but does anyone have any tips for not snacking? When I'm at home I find it so hard not to grab a snack every time I go to the kitchen, and it's never a healthy one. Anyone got any ideas for me to quit the crap? x

Reply from Melissa, Age 15 - 02/03/09 - IP#: 75.162.157.xxx Drink water, it keeps you full and it helps you lose weight. but still eat, eat an apple/orange/banana/carrots or something yummy like that
