Use a smaller plate when having a meal so your less likely to fill your plate up like you would on a big plate this means you will be putting less calories on the plate and just cut your proportions down mainly.
When eating food out check the calories. If you feel like snack have some pineapple or just a fruit. If you like grapes freeze them they taste really nice. Try and burn your snacks of.
I think 20 pounds by the end of summer sounds do-able.
It's about mind-set and attitude. Don't think of it as 'dieting' but rather as a new and healthy way of eating.
"fit people make choices that keep them fit - fat people make choices that keep them fat" - Make this Your mantra. Repeat, repeat, repeat.
Walk EVERYDAY - eat an apple and drink a glass of water 20 minutes before each meal - and of course, choose healthy meals. If You must have a snack, apples are great. They are sweet, juicy, cold and refreshing and very, very good for You, and they come in a variety of taste.
