A lot of people are struggling to lose weight, and finally a real solution that have worked for me might work for you to have a healthier weight and have a healthier lifestyle. So are you ready to lose that weight?

1. Do at least 20-50 jumping jacks or star jumps everyday this will also help burn some calories that you want to get rid of. Do not do more than 50 jumping jacks, it will make you tired and your body will ache before doing the next exercise. This exercise only takes about 1-3 minutes.

2. Do 10-20 push-ups and sit-ups everyday, it helps your bones get stronger and build muscles (it also burns fat). These exercises takes about 3-5 minutes. Do not do more than 20 push-ups and sit-ups.

3. Jog in place for about 4-5 minutes tops without stopping. Then breathe in with your nose and out with your mouth 5 times. It helps your heartbeat go back to normal.

4. If you work, walk to your work, carpooling is nice too but make sure you walk for atleast half a mile three times a week. (Burns a LOT of fat) Also if you are a student, you can walk to school or ride a bike instead of getting a ride, saves money, keeps our air clean and burns calories.

5. If you take naps everyday, you can become overly tired and it helps you gain more weight. It will make you sleep soundly at night if you do not take naps.
Don't just have 3 meals: breakfast, lunch and dinner... eat up to 6 portioned meals/snacks a day. By eating 6 times a day you give your metabolism a constant need to be working. Snacks should be healthy foods like vegetables, fruit, or whole grains NO JUNK CHIPS, SNACK CAKES, ETC!!! The key is portion reduction. If you eat 5 pancakes for breakfast, cut back to 2 pancakes. Make sure you cut back little by little on what you eat. Generally making conversation while eating allows your body the time to recognize if you are full or not. Do not be tempted to eat the food because you are not satisfied yet. Once you are full, that's enough.

6. Check the Nutrition Facts every time you eat, and record it to a notebook. Look at the serving size and how much calories it has. For a day, a normal person eats 2,000 calories a day. Make sure you only go to 1,500-2,500 calories a day.

7. Play sports for 30 minutes, playing basketball with a friend will help a lot for a short amount of time.

8. If you always pass by a court, any sport court, run across the court and back twice. Simple exercises helps too.

9. Lift weights for 5-10 minutes. Helps you burn calories and have stronger muscles.

10. Get friends with you and dance, dance your heart out without alcohol and drugs. Keep safe and healthy. Dance for at least 30-40 minutes.

11. Make sure you keep the Five-A-Day. Five a day means, five servings of vegetables and fruits.

12. Bicycling for about 30 minutes to an hour a day helps. It helps you burn for about 200-250 calories. Try jogging/running for the same amount of time because it helps you burn for about 400-500 calories.

13. Swimming helps a lot too! Swimming freestyle and swimming 3-4 laps really helps. Make sure you didn't exercise/walk for a long time or run before going to the pool because you might get a cramp and will have a hard time getting out of the pool.

14. Jogging one mile in the morning and one mile at night helps. Make sure you do this every other day, and when jogging at night, be in a group or have a companion or two so that you're safe.

15. Remember incidental activity is also extremly handy. This includes walking up your steps and walking the dog.

16. Always always drink lots of water to stay hydrated. Dehydration is a leading cause of fatigue, muscle aches, and can be mistaken for hunger. A good judge of whether or not you are hydrated is the color of your urine. The clearer it is, the more hydrated you are.

17. Be sure to give your body a day to rest after vigorous exercise, and do not over-eat just because you're working out.
