Our 10 Most Popular Tips for Weight Loss

Exercise
Find an exercise buddy and get to it! Laziness is craziness, especially when it comes to facing the scale. Run in the mornings before work or school, or after work before you eat dinner. Work out before meals to get that metabolism going! It's the best way to start. You can even invest in an exercise machine if you don't or can't leave home.

Eat Salad and other Light Foods
Forget the fast food, go with smart food! Your body can barely digest lettuce, so take advantage of it! It's low-carb, cheap, and effective. Other light foods include yogurt (only one cup at a time), fruit, rice cakes, and tofu. It may be bland, but it's effective. Also, light cereals such as Special K are highly recommended. After a while, all this stuff might get boring and redundant, but don't give up-- There are always tons of low cal, low fat, and low carb products in every grocery store.

Take the stairs
Again, exercise is your friend, and laziness is craziness. Work exercise in wherever you can. The elevator may look tempting, but taking the stairs instead can really add up. Also, try leaving early for work/school and parking 1/2 mile away once you arrive. This way you'll force yourself to exercise. Or, exercise on your lunch break. Go for a walk around the block. Getting active is the bottom line! We understand this is hard to work into your schedule. So again, you may want to consider purchasing some exercise equipment to keep right at home.

Skip One Meal Every Now and Again
You can survive without it. Just make sure you're active during the day so that your metablolism doesn't slow down too much and negate your lack of intake. And once you're used to skipping that meal, such as lunch, for example, try skipping it more frequently. Building yourself gradually to a lighter diet is more effective than trying to jump in at once. If you're forced to take a lunch at work, go jogging or walking... anything to distract yourself from the food you are so desperately craving. If you're a student in high school or middle school, try taking long trips to the bathroom to fix your make-up. Don't wear make-up?

Buty a Diet Book
Go to the bookstore and find a diet that suits your needs. There are tons of them!

Pills and Supplements
Tons of over the counter diet aids are now available. Read safety labels and decide which ones are right for you. None of the drugs on the shelves are proven to be harmful to you.

Don't Binge
Simply put, it's a bad idea. Unless you force yourself to vomit, a sudden intake of food can knock your diet completely down. Be strong!

Where There's a Will, There's a Waist
A small one, that is. Control yourself! It doesn't matter how slow your metablolism is, or if you're confined to a desk all day. There is no excuse for being fat!

Act Like You've Already Eaten
Tell yourself repeatedly that you've already eaten and that you don't really need this meal. Remember, your mind controls your body. We are all innately food addicts; each and every one of us was born hungry. FIGHT IT! You need to work hard to overcome the desire. Remember your priorities. And don't forget that this isn't always enough. You'll need to buy products such as magazines, pills, supplements, books, exercise machines, plastic surgery, etc. to help you succeed.

Stand Up to Those Around You

Friends, family, and even lovers may try to convince you that looking good is not a priority. But deep down inside, you know what is right, and in all likelyhood, they're telling you this because they're jealous of your looks, or they don't want to see you succeed. Don't let anyone convince you otherwise: a beautiful body is the key to happiness, success, and wealth. If you're ever in doubt, just look at the celebs, the stars, the cover girls, and the prom queen in your dusty yearbook. Point proven.
