I've found out for myself that I lose weight when I watch my calorie and fat intake, excersice a lot, and drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. I'm telling you the water thing works. You'd be surprised. It flushes your system constantly if you do so. I try not to eat more than 1500 calories a day Monday through Friday. And on the weekend, I can eat some foods I enjoy (but not overindulge). I log in the amount of calories I eat everyday in an Excel spreadsheet. I find that actually seeing the total number every day makes me more aware of what I eat before I eat it. I excercise at least 30 minutes a day, five-six days a week. Now the 1500 calories pertains to me and my body and depends on how much you excercise.
Here is a website that I enjoy: www.self.com

I wanted to add to my previous post that I do the previously stated things for me as a way of life and not just to lose weight. I'm not overweight at all but I've been doing those things for quite some time and it has helped to maintain my current weight, which works for me
