you wanna

lose some weight?

yup, genetic are definitely one thing..
but here are some tips that will work for everybody... and they are really not that hard.
 
1. drink water... lots and lots and lots of water.
when you get hungry... drink water
and drinking water actually helps remove "water weight"
2. avoid simple carbs as much as possible.. or always. carbs are addictive so this may be quite a task... start with switching to WHOLE GRAINS! COMPLEX CARBS!! and then replace half of those carbs with VEGETABLE. yup, veggies are carbs.. awesome carbs.
3. fresh fruit might be the most perfect food for you body... made up of water and vitamins.. easily digested... yummy...low in calories. eat fresh fruit for breakfast.... and a mid day snack.
4. drink some more water...
5. you don't need a gym membership to work out... get on the floor and do some crunches.. put a pillow under your lower back to increase flexion and extension.... do three sets of 10 in the AM and the PM. do lounges and squats 3 sets of 10 twice a day as well... 
6. 30 minutes of cardio at least 3 times a week... alternate between a moderate and a fast pace to get the most effective weight loss results.
7. STRETCH!!!!!
8. park in the last spot... take the stairs...hold your tummy in all day.
9. Drink some more water
10. Laugh.
