There are 5 main things that will make you lose weight:1.Healthy Diet2.Cardio Exercise3.Strength Training4.Sleep5.Positive attitudeHealthy diet does not mean starving yourself or restricting yourself. It is all about eating in moderation. You do, on the other hand need to eat a lot healthier. And that means natural, unprocessed, fresh foods. Most of what you eat should not be packaged or preserved. Raw fruits and vegetables, whole grains, nuts, lean meat, and A LOT of water. (Nothing BUT WATER TO DRINK!) 80% of weight loss is what you eat! Cardio, strength training, and even lifting. These will give you the toned body you want. As for walking, I think you would be better off at doing intervals of running and walking. (Run 1 min, Walk 2 mins) This will boost your metabolism more then just walking or just jogging. Lifting does not give you huge muscles like most people think, it's ACTUALLY pretty good for weight loss and toning.Btw, working out releases endorphins, which makes you overall happier if you stay consistent.SLEEP AND YOUR ATTITUDE ARE JUST AS MUCH IMPORTANT. If you do not get proper sleep, your body will be lethargic causing you not to want to eat right or exercise. Sleep is also needed for the recovery from the workout and your mind to get it's rest. And your attitude... you have to believe working out it something like a reward for your body, never something you feel obligated to do. you have to change your way of seeing things.Also, losing weight will not make you love yourself. You have to come to accept yourself no matter what size. You are beautiful whether you are 400 pounds or 100 pounds. I feel as though if you follow my advice, you'll realize this.good luck!

- Look up flutter kicks, this will eliminate your thighs and tighten you abs. Sit ups will get rid of over bulging love handles. Jogging can get you lean fast. Keep a journal of how much and how often you exercise. Increase both aspects at a steady pace weekly. Eat right, keeping a journal of what your eating daily really help you see what you're doing. No junk food, no carbs (bread, chips,pasta,etc.), more fruits and vegetables. DO NOT TAKE DIETARY SUPPLEMENTS! They are a waste of money and could harm your body.
- I'm done with my weight loss journey and completely happy with how I feel and how I look right now however losing weight is a challenge for anyone and even losing 5 pounds and keeping it off isn't an easy task. Also I bet you didn't know that 5 pounds of fat is about the size of 8 cheese burgers? That alone should be enough to make anyone want to get on the ball and start a change for the better. Weight loss can be really easy to learn but the problem is nobody wants to put the required effort that is needed to actually do it, instead people continually look for (easy) ways to do it. If there was an easy way to lose weight I don't think 35% of Americans would be obese. There was a time when I also wanted to lose weight and was tired of starting diets only to lose motivation and give up just a few weeks later after seeing no results. However, let me tell you it is literally one of the easiest things you will ever learn once you find a good and reputable place to learn it from and I say that only because the world is filled with magic diet pills, liquid flush diets and a thousand other quick fixes that promise xx pounds of weight loss in the first week and even though it is impossible they know you're going to do it because your desperate. I have probably tried every diet pill, liquid flush diet, and ab rocket machine known to man and have had no success with any of them nor do I know anyone that has ever had any success with them. I have also tried starving myself which works very well for the first few weeks' right before your metabolism comes to a complete stop and eating just the tiny bit makes you gain weight and you end up weighing more than you did before you started starving yourself. Companies promote weight loss to make money not to get people healthy again and that's because they know you're not going to be a customer and buy their products if you're no longer fat. http://fatloossfactor.com is a site I want you to go to when you have 10 or 20 minutes to spare and I want you to sit down and watch his video on weight loss. He helps people every day to lose weight I have never seen someone as committed as him and that will go so far out of his way to help someone. His weight loss program is one of the best I have ever had the enjoyment of doing and it is without doubt the best success I have ever had with any weight loss program. I also couldn't be happier with my body right now and I have never felt this wonderful in my whole life. In the end you just got to remember to stick with it and stay confident in yourself and in no time you can achieve the results you have always wanted. It's not hard to lose weight but most people have a hard time staying motivated and 9 times out of 10 it was because they weren't really committed from the beginning. Anyways I hope I helped you and I hope you make the commitment to change your body and life. Remember it's not easy to take the first step but you did, you're here right now taking it and the rest of the steps will fall into place. Have a wonderful day.
