    The biggest thing is to count those calories and make sure to eat ATLEAST 1,200 per day. It may seem weird but eating does help you lose weight. It keeps your body healthy and your metabolism going which are major keys to losing those pounds. I also reccomend Jillian Michaels 30 day shred workout dvd. It's only 20/mins and KICKS YOUR BUTT and will help every muscle in your body tone and become bathing suit worthy! I've been doing her workouts for a few days now so my body is still getting used to it, lol. I got mine at WalMart for $9. Also, make sure to take a multivitamin, avoid too much coffee, and drink a lot of water. To help you lose weight with water you're sopose to drink as many ounces as you weigh. So lets say someone weighs 130 pounds, they would drink 130 ounces of water per day. There are 8oz of water per cup so that would be 16 1/4 cups of water per day! Hope this helps you....and good luck : ]

    Hi honey,

    I know where you are. I have never gone to the beach strutting around in a 2 piece. My trouble area is my stomach too. I just had a baby, so now i have stretch marks which makes me feel worse. Realistically, you can lose about 30 lbs by June, which is my goal, so you can easily lose about 20 lbs by April. Dont set unrealistic goals, your just going to feel horrible if you dont reach the 30 lbs by April. Set a shorter goal like you want to lose 10 lbs by end of Feburary and just focus on that portion for the time being. It just takes willpower. I actually am on a doctor prescibed medicine called Phentermine. Do not take over the counter diet pills, I tried hydroxycut before i was pregnant and then come to find out girls were dying from it. I also took trim spa, big waste of money. I have lost 3 lbs in a little over a week. I walk 3.5 mph on treadmill for 30 minutes a day and do Jillian Michaels shred in 30 days dvd and weights everyday. The whole workout takes about 1:30 mins but I feel great afterwards. You may have a busy schedule with work and family, but exercise is key! I have my 9 month old son, and I was so exhausted, then I realized, I am not going to get the beach body without putting effort into it. What types of workouts do you do? If you want, I can help you set up a workout routine that I do, which clearly works for losing 3 lbs in 9 days! Let me know and good luck!

    I litterally FORCE myself to drink the water, lol. And I got a BIG water container so i'm not drinking one cup after the other. You can even use a gallon jug. I try to drink most my water in the am and sometimes end up drinking more than my 17 cups of water per day.

    Well, that's what you have to do. Try one day....one day when you are home a lot. Drink water CONSTANTLY throughout the day. Drink as much water as you can. I bet you will be surprised at how hungry you are not. It's a good start, and one day isn't going to kill you. You'll also be surprised at how easy it is to drink after a few "force"drinkings. :)

    Try crystal light! its only 5 calories per glass and my nutritionist said if you cant drink plain water all day, any non carbonated drink is fine. So I drink crystal light during the day and about 3 glasses during workouts. anndddd PEEING is good! not to sound gross, when you pee, if it is DARK yellow that means you are VERY dehydrated. You want your pee to almost look clear which means you are getting enough fluids! haha SO peeing is WONDERFUL, its cleansing your system!! so make sure u drink drink drink!!!! plus, going to the bathroom 10 times every hour,just gives you the excuse to check your hott self out more often haha!!

    I LOVE biggest loser! And though she's a great trainer i'm kinda glad I don't have her in real life becuase though i'd get to where I want to be quicker, I am sure I would die in the process, lol! And I know, i'll actually pause it and drink some water or splash my face with water in the sink!

    ok, IMHO, you are going about this all wrong, seriously, first of all, 30 lbs by April for someone with only (maybe, I question this anyway) 30 lbs to lose is crazy talk. I don't mean that as an insult I mean it as a means to shock you a little. That's about 2.5 lbs per week which is the amount of weight you would expect to lose if you were say, 150 lbs overweight, not 30.

    Besides, 5'10" tall and 140 lbs is REALLY small, you would have a very very small volume of lean muscle mass if this were your weight. I would rethink that.

    First thing I feel like you should do is read up a lot on HEALTHY weight loss, forget pills, forget nutrient restrictive diets, forget trying to lose weight in 1 or 2 or 3 months, these things are all band-aids and do not solve the underlying issues.

    I know teenagers don't want to hear it, but the most important thing you need to lose the weight is the knowledge on how to do it, and the patience to know that you can't lose weight too fast or your just doing damage to your body.

    If you're serious about this, and not just looking for a quick fix, then feel free to email me, I'll help you get started the right way, but if you're just looking to "drop 30 by April" then that's it, I'm out, that's the wrong attitude for this site IMHO.

    This site is, after all, called My Fitness Pal, not My Crash Diet.

    I think your beautiful and your very inspiring....I also do the 30 day shred in the mornings and try to ge to the gym in the evening.....my theory is .......if you can't be happy and positive about yourself what example are you setting for our children! So, spending a little time on me allows for more quality time for my husband and kids......
