I know how you feel. I used to be 225 pounds. Until I took action. I lost alot of the weight in about 3 - 4 months.For breakfast I eat cereal cause it's a prooven fact that it helps teen girls stay slim,for lunch I have a sandwich & a bottle of water. At dinner I norm have chicken or a salad. I never eat after 7pm cause your metabalism slows down and wont burn so much. If you get bored and feel like eating say no. Do something you love. Like in your case you could dance since you love it so much. Danceing burns calories. Lately I've been sticking to the same diet and at lunch I added havin a poptart it may not seem healthy since they are 200 calories each but then I don't want sweets. That way I get my sweets during the day from that poptart and I don't want them anymore. I drink alot of water during the day also. I lost 45 pounds and weigh 180 pounds now. I couldn't be happier. I do about 100 crunches, and 30 situps a night. Well if you want more tips email me at bratzbv91@hotmail.com Good luck!
