It is a time-honored tradition to make resolutions at this time of year. If your resolution is to lose weight - and keep it off, then keep reading! Here are six simple tips that will have you losing weight in a balanced and healthy way.

1. Lose weight with water.
Water is essential for everybody - it is also the key to losing weight. If you haven't been drinking enough water, your body has developed a pattern of storing water. This water retention equals extra unwanted weight.

By drinking more water, you are not only flushing out toxins, you are also teaching your body that it no longer needs to store water. Drink at least 60 ounces of water (about 8 glasses) a day. Boil water and sliced lemons, and drink this throughout the day to help with fluid retention. If you are still not sold on the merits of water, try this on for size: water is a natural appetite suppressant.

2. Soup up your weight loss program.
A simple dietary change will have you shedding pounds: eat a bowl of soup at least once a day. Nutritious, low-salt soups will nourish you as they flush waste from your body. People who eat a serving of soup daily lose more weight than those who eat the same amount of calories but don't eat soup. Go for homemade soup whenever possible, as canned soups are loaded with salt and chemicals.

3. Eat early to keep weight off.
The human body follows a circadian rhythm, which means that the same foods eaten at breakfast and lunch are processed differently than when eaten at dinner. Studies show that when you eat your daily protein and fat at breakfast you tend to lose weight and have more energy; however, eating the same things at dinner tend to increase tendencies toward weight gain. I suggest that you eat your last meal of the day by 7 p.m.

4. Eat smaller meals, more frequently.
Follow an eating schedule with five little meals every day. Eating steadily through the day keeps you from becoming famished and overeating at your next meal. Make a low-fat trail mix from raw almonds, pumpkin seeds, dried plum, and apples and have it available at all times to avoid the tempting lure of high-calorie snacks.

5. Adopt a balanced approach to your diet.
Most of the fad diet programs out there nowadays are extreme in a few recommended foods, or else deprive the body of food altogether. This works in opposition to our metabolism and the results usually don't last, producing a yoyo effect that depresses your metabolic function - not to mention your self-esteem. We are natural beings that need a balance of nutrition from all sources.

Your diet should consist of a balance of organic sources of lean protein, complex carbohydrates, whole grains, legumes, nuts, fruits, and vegetables. Instead of white rice and pasta, opt for brown rice, bulgur, millet, or buckwheat.

Eat more green, chlorophyll-rich foods such as broccoli, kale, spinach, and asparagus. Eliminate candy, sugar, soda, and all simple sugars from your diet. Excess sugar ends up being stored as fat in your body, which results in weight gain. Also, keep dairy to a minimum because most dairy products are high in saturated fat. Avoid fatty foods, processed or fried foods.

6. Walk off the weight.
The No. 1 cause of weight gain is inactivity. Physical activity is the key to speeding up your metabolism and burning excess calories. The best way to be physically active is to use your legs! Walk as often and as long as you can. Always take the stairs instead of the elevator.

Step outside during your break at work and take a walk around your building. Consider joining a local hiking club. Try taking a walk 30 minutes in the morning or 30 minutes in the early evening.

Well the ways I lost weight included illegalities....but I don't recommend that at all. but yes drinking milk does help. Don't over-do it, though. Also raisins help. And drinking lots of water, because most of the time your body is thirsty when you think it is hungry!

Also, walking [or running] for a good 30min-1 hour a day will help tremendously. Stretch afterwards. And don't eat fatty/unhealthy foods. If you need the weight off real fast, try going for one week on a juice or fruits/veggies diet?

Simply burn more calories than you take in. Eat a lot of salads and fast burning foods, try to stay clear of starches etc (potato, pasta, breads etc) Do cardio work for at least 30 mins a day, walking briskly, running if possible and some light weights every second day. There are many websites out there to give you a hand. Swimming and cycling would be excellent activities. Also, drink 2 litres of water per day, limit the sugars you digest (ie drink the "zero" drinks or diet drinks) Type in weight loss for women or womens dumbbell workout into yahoo and you will have plenty of reading material. The main thing though is exercise and stay healthy. Lose weight in a safe and healthy manner and keep ot off.

Drink water. The body will store water when you don't, which causes you to gain weight. When you drink water, it will reduce the amount the body stores.

Also, walk whenever you can. If you live close enough (under a mile) walk to school instead of driving/riding the bus. Don't always search for the nearest parking place to the entrance, but take one a little further back and walk.

Cut down on any processed sugar and salt (prepackaged meals are loaded with salt). Eat as much home made things as possible.

First is proper discipline, try to stay away from too much sweets or better yet, try to stay away from them (if you can). Eat vegetables, this can help proper bowel movement. Sure eggs is good but make sure that they're not too oily when fried. Its not advisable to skip meals... Well I hope i've been of good help to you. -Toni
