Overweight

[Tora]

Ok last time i checked at the doctors (not that far back, a week or so)
and i discovered i was overweight, which was kinda a shock to me as i knew i had always been a bit of a chunky monkey but i thought i would lose it going through teenage years but really its been the same these past couple years as all my friends are slimming down and they look absolutely B E A U T I F U L
well i havent grown except UP which is nice as i feel hobit short all the time...
but i mean my legs are now nice and pretty and i love them^^ buuut the fact that my stomach has not changed a bit is starting to bother me...i mean i can feel my ribcage through the blubber and i KNOW that im not getting any well idk what the word is well im as thin(horizantally) as i can get xD
but i walk about 2 or 3 times a week, i dont drink much water, and ive limited my sweets and i only have one serving at a meal
is there anything i can do to speed this up that wont take a hunk out of my schedule????

Start drinking more water, have 6 small meals a day instead of starving yourself watch your fat intake, walk at a faster pace and really move you arms. Try to eat more healthy foods, vegetables, fruit and increase your fibre intake. This is not a diet but a healthy way of life, small changes make big differences. Diets are like yo-yos you lose you gain, and on and on it goes.

hmm 6 small meals
i should try that!
but there IS a dillema
i dont eat lunch
its a germaphobic thing i dont like eating where everyone else has
but i eat breakfast and dinner

i wud definitely reccomend drinking more water, this could help u loose weight, and i wud agree with judi in sayin that u shud have 6 small healthy meals throughout, most ppl think that dieting is about starving yourself, in fact u shud eat fequently but healthily, and perhaps also try goin out 4 more walks,
I personally find sticking on sum music and dancing around to it is great exercise and enjoyable too, If u enjoy goin out 4 walks that wud b grt 2

Your lunch and breakfast our important so try to break out of the rut about not eating at lunch try taking your own lunch and you may find this easier.

I totally get the not eating where others have. Pack your lunch like Judi suggested will help. I've also found wiping down the area where I'm gonna eat helps me. I have SAD (Sociel Anxiety Disorder) so sitting where fewer people have/are sitting helps.
As to wieght lose, fiber,fiber,fiber. Walks are great for weight loss, but you gotta move your whole body...power walk-3times a week for at least 30 mins. Make sure you warm up and cool down properly. Drink plenty of water, personally I find drinking small amounts (like 4 oz) frequently is easier than trying to drink a large glass/bottle (8 or more oz). I don't like water by itself to be honest, but 4oz is basically a few sips and I'm done.
Give it time, lots of time. Healthy weight loss, that stays off, is about 1 or 2lbs a week.
Most importantly, you look good, now.

If you want to flatten out your stomach, do pilates. I take classes but I'm sure there are some great DVDs out there. Yoga is good too if you've got the time to try it. They'll really help!

although I'm against diets, if you think you really need to lose weight, here you may find 10 most popular diets: http://www.jurgita.com/articles-id2341.html
as far as they are the most popular I think they really work won't harm your body much.

Make breakfast your biggest meal of the day and do your best to eat six small meals a day. Try substituting protein bars for one or two of the meals and continue to lay off the sweets and walk 2-3 times per week. You should see results after about two weeks.
