1. Eliminate (or cut way back) meat, dairy (esp. cheese, butter and ice cream) from your diet
2. Have one meal per day be a big salad and make your own salad dressing from mustard, a bit of honey and red wine vinegar. Have a slice of whole grain bread (no butter) with your salad
3. Drink nothing but fresh water--no sodas, and cut way back on beer or wine or other alcoholic beverages--and drink nothing that contains high fructose corn syrup
4. Let your snacks be low calorie such as pretzels, apple slices, grapes, carrot strips. No fast food (too high in fats, sugars, and salt)
5. Eat a good breakfast such as oatmeal, whole grain cereal and fresh fruit
6. Walk or swim or do a treadmill or elliptical for 30 minutes 4-7 times/week
I'm looking for some motivation and someone to share the weight loss journey along the way. I motivate and support you, You motivate and support me. And we hit our goal- that's the plan (no doubt with bumps along the way)! Ideally, someone who has 20-30 lbs to lose. Feel free to message!
Jenna, you should be easily able to achieve it yourself. Generally diet buddies are helpful, but they also have their darker side. If the other person loses his interest in it, you too go down with him because some or the other way you are connected emotionally to your buddy.
I tried it, it did not work for me. Or maybe, i choose the wrong buddy
