Follow these easy steps for guaranteed weight loss:

• Eliminate pop and french fries from your diet. These are two of the worst things you can put in your body. If this is too hard to do, try and limit yourself to 1 serving of each a week.
• Exercise at least 3 times a week. Try to break a sweat at least 3 times a week. Walking, running, weight training, anything is better than nothing.
• Eat a decent breakfast. After sleeping for 8 hours your metabolism slows way down. Restart you metabolism with eating a good breakfast as soon as you wake up.
• Eat 6 small meals a day rather than 3 large meals. This will keep your metabolism up throughout the day.
• Try to eat slow. Taking extra bites and slowing down will result in less calories consumed.
• Get a good night's rest. People who sleep less are more likely to be overweight.
• Don't deprive yourself. If you are hungry you should eat, the trick is not to overeat.
• Don't rush weight loss and expect immediate results, 1-2 pounds a week is a good healthy rate to lose weight.
• Get a weight loss partner. Finding a friend who also want to lose weight is great because the two of you can exercise and eat together and also motivate one another.
• Stay off the scale. The scale can be deceiving, especially if you are lifting weights and building muscle. Muscle weighs more than fat. How your pants fit is a good way to measure your progress. You will also see the result of your hard work by simply looking in the mirror.
