listen, u dont need to go crazy about dieting, just dont eat any food that has more than 130 calories, and not over 32 carbs, no bread or cheese, water and also tons of veggies( the green veggies help clear your face{acne}better than clean 'n clear.) not alot of fruit, u can get the diarria and fruit has alot of natural sugar! And go running at night and in the morning and if u can stick to that for 3 weeks, then u can stick to it!
