    Are you nursing? If so, be careful with restricting your calories. When I had mine, I just did 20 minutes of cardio in the morning and then 20 minutes of strength training in the afternoon. I also ate the same amount of calories, just made sure it was clean.

    Tip: don't put an end date on your goal. Also, be realistic. 30 pounds in 4 months is doable if you're obese. From your profile pic, you do not appear to be.

    Log your food. Weigh your food. Exercise for enjoyment.

    Stay in a calorie deficit and you'll lose weight. Those are really the only tips you need.
