[quote=Anonymous]OP, it's rather simple. You have to burn more calories than you take in each day. The calorie deficit is where the weight loss begins.

I'm 5 7", 127lbs. I was blessed with a high metabolism but with age, that gradually stopped being my friend. To maintain my weight, I exercised A LOT, not necessarily a gym rat but I took whatever opportunity I had to get some exercise, climbing stairs instead of taking the elevator, parking far away from the store/mall so I can actually  get a bit of walk in.  Getting off one metro stop away from my destination, once again so I could walk. This and also strength training. Use weights and gradually increase them, you have the strength in you, you just have to push yourself is all. The first time I did a push up, I thought my arms would snap off, now I can do 12, without stopping, same with unassisted pull ups. You have to keep challenging yourself.

All that and just eating less, healthy foods definitely but less of it. One PP mentioned stopping the first time you feel full, that worked for me. There is a study that says it takes your brain 20 minutes after eating to register that you are full. If you keep eating for that 20 minutes, imagine how much more you are taking in than your body actually needs. So walk away, drink some water and wait out that 20 minutes to see if you need more food.

Oh, and cut out processed foods, diet soda is NOT your friend. You have to go cold turkey on that crap.[/quote]
