(Posted by: *_HoneyBunnyBella_* on 2010-03-09 13:41:41)

I'm 5'2 and i weight 140. I was told i was over weight and I don't like being this size. I used to weight 105 but it seems like i can't go back down since i gained those pounds. I want to be able to loose weight my the summer time and look good like i used to in a swimsuit. Please help guys and gals. I go to the gym about 4 or 5 times a week. I eat pretty healthy and i try to stay away from sweets but chocolate is a must even though i don't eat it that much.

You sound like you have a healthy lifestyle, you don't deserve to be 140 lb. Eat more fruits and veggies, drink water instead of soda or juice, you can keep the exercise pattern. Weigh yourself often, maybe every day, and set a goal for yourself every day, for example: to lose 1 lb. Eventually you should see the results that you want. I would say aim for 120 lbs in the next month or 2. I know someone who is 5'1 " and weighs around 115 lb. Anyways, good luck!

It's pretty simple: Eat whole grains and more vegetables. Avoid refined sugars, refined grains (white bread), fried foods, and trans fats. That means no fast food. Just keep your food simple, light, and clean. Use common sense. And avoid soda and fruit juice. Just drink water. Getting more exercise will help, too. Again, common sense.
