Weight loss tip #1:
Walk for an hour every day.

Don’t drink anything but water. Avoid all sugary soda and even fruit juices. They are packed with sugar and calories. Water is your best choice when you’re trying to lose weight!

If you eat junk food, only eat it in small amounts. If you have an addiction to junk food, then you need to be very careful and make sure that not even a little treat results in a week-long binge.

Keep a food log. This is key to learning how and why you’re eating along with understanding exactly what types of foods and the amounts of food you consume every day.
