It's too late to lose weight for this summer. If you're fluffy (using Gabriel Iglesias' definition of the word--youtube him!) then make your goal for next summer. The best thing for you would be to not put yourself on a diet, but to change it permanently. Don't give up certain foods for a small period of time; give them up for life (except for certain occasions). Eat smarter.

Don't waste money on a gym membership or on ANY equipment. Don't buy a treadmill or elliptical or anything. Buy a kettlebell (google it, you can choose the weight).

Find a track. The first day you go to the track, run one lap. That's it. JUST ONE LAP! Then the next time you go, run 2 laps. It's just one more lap. Each time you go, add another lap. Take weekends off. And lets say you ran 6 laps on friday: take Saturday and Sunday off. Run 5 laps on Monday. Then 6 on Tuesday, 7 on Wednesday, 8 on Thursday, 9 on Friday, Sat and Sun off, then 8 on the next Monday. It's a nice and easy pace.

On every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, do a simple kettlebell routine you find online. If you do this, I guarantee your success!

I don't think its too late.. its never too late

Daily running and no desserts, and some workouts with weights such as in a circuit training class at a gym. In other words, hard work and limited food for awhile. There aren't any shortcuts!

Well how much weight are you looking to loose? and where your stomach,legs etc?

[MizzBerry]

30 pounds at the most

[katherrrrine545]

Okay well 30 pounds is a lot so you would have to really cut back on the food you eat. do you want me to give you examples of meals you should eat? also try and excerise every day for at least a half an hour that will do a lot for you

[MizzBerry]

Yeah sure

Breakfast- oatmeal, cereal ex: cheerios, go lean.. stay away from the sugar cereals

Lunch- salad (this can vary depending on what you like in it) Sandwich use whole wheat bread or even a whole wheat wrap. If you are going to have chicken on it stay away from the fried chicken and go with the grilled chicken

Dinner- Some type of meat with maybe a pasta (whole wheat) or a brown rice

Desert- Ice cream but look at the serving size and measure it out

[MizzBerry]

Ok thanks:D really appreciate it

[katherrrrine545]

Sorry ran out of room

here are some more tips:

- eat as many fruits and vegetables as possible

- stay away from the bad sugar drinks

- read the serving size and look at the calories

- exercise everyday

- Try not to eat late at night

- count your calories throughout the day

also if you are looking to loose 30 pounds by the summer you will have to cut down your calories to about 1300-1500 a day depending on how much you exercise.

good luck!
