oh, and exercise alot. lk if ur goin sumwhere hot, then swim in the pool/sea (seas better cuz thers more resistance on ur body), or walk everywhere nd du running along the beach on the sand thats slightly squishy (again, resistance, makes ur muscles work harder) that shud at least counteract any food u eat

do the old restrant trick: take tiny bite, swig sum water, tiny bite, water, nd soon ur full, uv hardly eaten nething, but u hav eaten so ur rents cant say nething. thn u can work off those cals by taking a walk or a run. oh, nd stay far away from desserts at all times. hav strength, jst imagine how great ur guna look+feel when ur thin, and how its guna b longer till that day if u eat whatevers infront of u. u wont feel so hungry then ; D hope i helped x

oh yeah tips. i havnt been really successful but the best one ever (so far for me) is to drink water before every meal . it fills u up so u dont eat as much. o and hoenstly wait 20 minutes before seconds on food cuz it ereally does hit u later and u feel full. that ones hard to do though if ur having family dinner. good luck@@!!

hey. i found that telling m y family made things horrible. they started hiding food from me (to be helpful i know) but it made me feel out of control and when i found it id eat it cuz i dont like to be told what to do. i wish u the best of luck i know u can do it. cuz honestly if u want it bad enough u can! :)
