If you truly want to lose weight, then you are determined enough, but you have to stick to it! HEre are some things that will help... NO POP! (did you know that if you drank one less pop a day that you will lose 25 pounds in a year without doing anything else?) DONT EAT PAST 8 PM! (Or else it will go straight to your stomach, hips, thighs, and butt!) Excersize! (You will lose weight if you burn more calories then you consume in a day) Be happy about who you are! GOOD LUCK!!
