Hi, well, what works very good for me is eating a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables (trying to limit carbs and sugars) and getting out and shooting hoops or walking or just running around for about an hour everyday. Also, if your interested in counting calories, a great way to break the weight plateau is to divide calories (a week total of around 9500) into uneven segments throughout the week, starting with Sunday with about 1100 and Wednesday being most with about 1800, then going back down. This speeds up your metabolism by giving it more food, yet you won't gain any weight because your week total is still an average of around 1200. Good luck!

Hi Taylor and Michelle! What i did was i stopped my sugar intake completely, no soda and maybe once in a while i ate a starburst or something because theyre my favorite but absolutely no chocolate. I did a lot of random things, first i ate only subway for like a month(no cheese or mayo) and i lost about 10 pounds. and then i just dont eat as much as i used to. I eat fruit for breakfast, a salad for lunch and maybe if im hungry then a sandwhich for dinner. I also drink a ton of water everyday and i think thats what helped me the most because for a while i stopped drinkin water and my weight didnt drop as fast. I also dont eat any junk food. I only eat when im hungry and i eat sensibly. I hope that helps, bye!
