Go to college.
Believe me, you get so much work that the only time you remember to eat is when your stomach hurts and you realize it isn't indigestion or gas.
Fun Fact: I lost 23 pounds in my 1st semester as a freshman without even realizing it. 😲
True, mostly I was just too lazy to get up and buy food from the caf (half way across campus from my room).
Counting calories isn't enough, try to eat a balanced diet, ex. eating fried chicken for breakfast, lunch and dinner to make up 1500 calories a day quota, yeah NO. lol

Man.I.Love.College.
You'll lose a lot more weight once you move off campus, cause when your hungry, you don't have the money to eat.
Woe is me. 😢

Go on holiday somewhere hot.
The heat makes you eat less.
I lost a whole stone when I went for 3 1/2 weeks. I could hardly eat anything without feeling sick when I was there 🤣
I'm the opposite.
The heat makes me hungry.
Not to mention all that ice cream...

My roomate is just trying out this new diet in which you drink a special juice every one or two hours, only able to eat meat ( chiken, hot dogs, bacon etc.) and nothing else in between. Which i find a bit outrageous you could wolf down a whole pakage of hot dogs but a little ketchup will kill you?
So I'm asking you what kind of diets do you or someone you know go on when your jean zipper just wont zip?As for me i like running in the park, and my rule becomes
"no takeout".
:/ they will lose weight but that's so gross. suggest to them to eat veggies as well and if eating meat eat lean meat/fish. and make sure to exercise otherwise she'll gain it back once she goes off it. Healthy eating/lifestyle is better than diets seriously.
I have been thinking doing the master cleanse diet. I seriously do need to do a cleanse but I'm lazy. Actually I'm going to cut out breads and cakes. Upgrade fruits/veggies, and keep grains, protein, dairy to a minimum.
uhh people need to stop baking in my house, it's my downfall D:

Bump
The start of summer I was 130 lbs but by the end I went back to my snug of 123 🙂
I just drank two cups herbal tea or Green (are they the same? XD) a day and just moved around after eating. While I watched my anime, I jogged in place instead of sitting.
But, now because school started, I'm gaining little by little because I get so hungry once I get home XD

Lose more calories than you eat.
'nuff said. There is a set amount of calories you burn for being alive and functioning in a day, look it up and eat less than that.

I'm in the military. I run off what i might gain =/
We are all more afraid than we are willing to believe but we are also more braver than we could have ever dreamed.
One could try keepin off of fried stuff and sweet stuff and sweetener in beverages..jogging and cycling do wonders...swimming helps to tone up figure..taking the stairs instead of lifts and make sure you can keep close to healthy stuff, lots of water and fruits..hard in a hectic life but make sure you dont starve to loose the pounds otherwise you will get them back sooner than it may take to loose them...
I think I lost 13 llbs when I got my heart broken

This.
Except the set level that everyone burns in order to stay alive varies between people, and even day to day for each individual. Hence why some people seem to stay skinny no matter how much they eat.
Also, some people happen to be better at processing fattier foods, despite the higher calories they would normally receive by eating them.
Getting 7-8 hours of sleep a day can also drastically increase your burning rate. Anything less or more can hamper it.
Etc etc etc...
Oh, and you have to be careful when reading boxes that tell you the number of servings in something. I've taken to weighing/measuring new foods until I figure out what a real serving size is. (I find cereal to be a major culprit of their false measurements... 11 servings in the box my ass!)

I just eat more salads and the only meat I eat is chicken or fish. I have a friend who has diets consisting of soup alone :S

No animal products whatsoever, humans can't process them right (not trying to pick a fight, just laying down the facts). Honey doesn't hurt, but bees have this mass suicide thing going on that could lead to the possible destruction of the human race, so I would reccommend avoiding it (seriously).
Just eat lots of vegetables, fruits, and RAW nuts (salted/oiled/sugared nuts can drive a hole through your intestine O_O). Water, too. Avoid heating your food at all if possible. 🙂 Eat just when hungry, so you know your stomach is ready for more food, then stop eating when you're satisfied. Sounds easy, but takes determination for some.
There are also such things as juice and water fasts out there, but only take them knowingly. Never use them as a quick fix, they shouldn't be taken lightly. Fasts are meant for cleansing purposes. 😃
stress.
When I get stressed I can't consume much food without getting sick.
I tend to live off of vitamin pills and such during those times.
Which obviously means I lose some sort of weight.
