I Wanted to be a lil slimmer at one time, actually it was like a year ago. I'm not fat but since I'm like 5ft, I just felt I would look better being just a lil slimmer, I didn't like how I looked in certain clothes, plus I mainly just wanted my stomach flatter and my waist to be slimmer.
So I know there's a certain amount of calories that your not supposed to go over, if you wanna lose weight, depending on weather your male or female and size and everything. so I kinda tried to keep track of calories a little, wasn't really obsessed with calories. But it kinda helps if u keep track of everything u eat through out the day. like write it down in a journal and if u know how many calories was in it then write that down. Just write down what u ate for each meal and snacks.
Also eat smaller meals thru out the day, not one huge meal til your so full. It's better to eat smaller portions. So whatever u eat for a meal, eat smaller portions of it, try not to be so greedy, just eat enough so that u don't feel really hungry. don't eat large portions so that u feel so heavy and full like your stomach is gonna burst!
As far as what kinda of foods to eat, you can eat pretty much whatever u want, as long as it's not so much. But u should still try and get healthier stuff if u can, like try and get whatever has less calories, and try and eat more natural stuff if u can. What I would eat alot of is cereal, fruit, and bagels. like I might eat a bowl of cereal for dinner sometimes too. and eat fruit for snacks. And frozen fruit and canned fruit is good too as long as it's all natural with no added sugar. I would eat mostly ceareal and fruit because there's not alot of calories in that. I would still eat other stuff too sometimes like chicken, vegatables, and sometimes a burger or pizza. but not too much of it ,like I would normally eat. But I didn't have much fast food, or soda, and I didn't eat much cookies and ice cream and stuff like that. Only once in a while I would, and if I did, i didn't have a huge serving of it. like If i did have ice cream for a snack, it would be a small cup. and if I did happen to go to burger king, I might of just got a little wopper jr and small fries, no huge double wopper and extra large fries. There's waaaay too many calories, and it definately won't help losing weight if u eat that much at once til your so stuffed.
So just remember that eating smaller meals through out the day, small portions, less calories, mostly cereal, fruits, and vegetables, not too much sugars, junk and stuff and that should help. also try not to buy anything with high fructose corn syrup in it. It's not good for u and it's not natural, try and get things with more natural ingredients.
Another thing that helps ofcoarse is excersise. Mostly Cardio. So anything that u like to do that involves cardio activity, try and do it for 30- 40 mins at least a few times a weak. It could be running dancing, whatever. You could just watch some Beyonce, ciara, chris Brown, Michael or Janet jackson videos and just try and do the moves that they do in the videos. That's definately a workout. It don't matter if u know how to do the moves, but just watching and trying to do them for about a half hour is good enough. Turbo Jam works good too if u can do that, just whatever. Also if u can, u should do some sculpting with weights and stuff too sometimes, because having muscle helps burn calories faster.
I think that's pretty much it, since i started this plan, people have started to notice that I got slimmer within a lil less than a month. So, If I think of anything else that I might of forgot then i will add it in here.
