Hi I will be 22 in 2 weeks and I would like to lose 30 pounds. I need some tips for younger females trying to lose weight. I never feel motivated to exercise and just recently I started eating better. I used to eat like crap which I am sure contributed to my weight gain. Also, I was on this medicine for several years which one of the side effects is weight gain (the average weight gain for people on it is 30 pounds.) I am finally slowly being weened off of it. I am looking to become more active but I am not sure what kinds of exercises are better for losing weight. Most of my fat is in my belly. I do like dancing and sometimes I use my wii for exercising. I am considering joining a gym but not sure I want to pay the $35 a month fee. But, if I will benefit from it and lose weight then I will join. I would like some advice and tips from people who have been successful at losing weight and keeping it off.View Thread
