• Weight loss depends on the balance between calories taken in and calories used up through exercise.

Calories burned depends on velocity and on the weight moved. (Physics, ugh.) For example, walking or jogging:
3.0 miles/hour (20 min./mile) burns .027 calories per pound per minute
3.5 miles/hour (17 min./mile) burns .033 calories per pound per minute
4.0 miles/hour (15 min./mile) burns .042 calories per pound per minute
4.5 miles/hour (13 min./mile) burns .047 calories per pound per minute

It’s a good idea to do some weight training (weight lifting, resistance training, etc.) to build greater lean muscle mass. A muscle at rest continues to burn calories; fat at rest does not.

I'm too lazy to do the math, but if you can stick to a plan to eat sensibly and just a little less, and walk at a pace of 3.5 miles per hour for two hours a day, you will definitely lose weight.

Tip: package your sweets in 100- or 150-calorie bunches, each in its own sandwich bag. That way you can indulge in what you crave without totally binging.

Reduce your calorie intake.Try to take 5-6 small meals in a day.Don't starve yourself.Cut down on Carbohydrate and sugar intake to reduce faster.Whenever feel hungry keep a fruit handy .Also start exercises atleast 5 times in a week.This will help you reduce faster and if you want to shape up then do moderate weight training also.

To shed off the extra kilos you need to adapt to a healthy lifestyle start exercising. It is very simple to lose it you need to use it. Exercises such as brisk walks, jogging and cycling are good eventually you can graduate to a gym or continue the same exercises but increase the intensity by changing the speed or duration. Well only exercising will not help u also need to follow a right diet. Have more of sprouts, Salads, fruits vegetables avoid fried foods and junk foods.

Well to become thin you need to eat fewer calories and also burn extra calories through an exercises schedule. Healthy diet and exercise is the best way to reduce excess weight. Do aerobic exercises (walking/cycling/swimming) to burn extra calories and a weight training workout to help tighten and strengthen the muscles. Do brisk walking, cycling or swimming for 30 minutes thrice a week. On alternate days perform weight training exercises. Focus on abdominal crunches, sit ups and also do variations in these. For a detailed exercise schedule consult a fitness trainer. Eat low fat, low calorie diet. Include variety of low fat foods in the diet. Include green leafy veggies, fruits, salads, nuts, low fat milk, and low fat paneer. Avoid oily, fatty, junk and processed foods. Drink plenty of water. Losing 2 to 3 kgs per month is advisable and it’s healthy too!

swim or brisk walking.
ollow a high protein moderate carb diet. dont totally cut down on carbs as it will drain you out of energy.

eat every 3-4 hours -dont skip a meal as this does not help in weight loss in the long run.

avoid processed foods( white bread, cookies, pastas etc) and rather eat natural foods ( atleast 3 helping of fruits and veggies). though try avoid eating potatoes.

eat low fat diary products.stop eating junk food and especially sodas.
