yes.. i am losing my weight.. and most of my shirts are much bigger for me now.. haha.. i dont' know it's good or not.. it might be due to excessive exercise weekly.. i do exercise 5 times a week. .and i don't know whether it's a good idea or not.. so far i'm still in good condition.. but who knows in the future? my family members are all smokers. .and i don't know if exercising will help me or not.. i love running too.. usually i'll run 1 - 3 miles around the field.. and it's quite good.. sweating alot make me feel more refreshed.. haha..do we actually get to burn our fats by doing so?

I'm trying something in my daily routine to lose weight. Drink water and exercise anyway, no matter how much you hate them. Be as active as you can; you don't necessarily have to run. Walking fast is good exercise too, as well as shoveling snow, taking the stairs, playing with children, walking a dog, and all the little things like that. Always eat breakfast, but not the traditional foods like bacon and eggs. Eat cereal with skim milk and fresh fruit. Fruits and vegetables make great snacks in between meals. You don't have to eat just three times a day. I usually have about four or five toddler-sized portions of food throughout the day and it serves me well. Don't try to lose more than two pounds a week, though, because that's not good for your body. Alter your lifestyle a little and the weight will start coming off slowly but surely. Good luck.

stay away from anything fried or greasy such as fast food. eat about 3 portioned size meals a day and 3 snacks. snacks such as veggies and fruits are good. whole grain or wheat bread instead of white. fish such as salmon and tuna are excellent for you and a good source of protein. balance your meals with all food groups. and portions are important. when it comes to excersise, do cardio (such as walking or running) to tone and it wont build your muscles too much. an example of a good day's meal: breakfast - one hard boiled egg, and a peice of wheat toast with peanut butter. morning snack - an apple or some peice of fruit. lunch - grilled or broiled chicken either alone or on whole grain bread with a salad (you can use dressing and mayo, just dont go heavy and use light stuff) afternoon snack - cut up veggies such as broccoli and cucumbers and you can use dip, just dont go heavy (try a light dressing) dinner - salmon or steak(make sure its not fatty and its cooked to at least meduim well with a side of steamed veggies. evening snack - light rice cakes or fruits and veggies. you can treat yourself once a week or so try some yougurt or low fat ice cream beware also when you see low fat on items, sometimes they replace fat with sugar so beware. THANK YOU FOR BEST RESPONSE
