Try eating 5-6 small frequent meals as opposed to three
large ones. If you wait too long for a meal, by the time
the food comes, you will be starving and will not be able
to control yourself. Eating smaller meals more often helps
keep you full, and lets you be in control.

Never skip meals. Some people think that by skipping
breakfast or lunch they will save total calories, but the
opposite happens. Because they go for too long without
food, they end up compensating for it and then some later
in the day. In addition, skipping meals slows down your
metabolism, because your body feels like it's not getting
enough food. So it activates its survival instinct and
burns fewer calories.

Another trick is to eat slower. It takes our body around
20 minutes to realize that it's full. If you eat too fast,
you will eat unnecessary calories while your body is
determining whether it is still hungry. By the time it
realizes that it's full, it is too late, since you've
already eaten more than you needed. If you eat slowly,
your brain will start sending signals to stop eating just
in time.

but girl are you sure that you have to lose 25 POUNDS?... getting down sizes doesnt exactly mean you have to lose a certain amount of weight... honestly diets just work for a while... once you stop its tooo easy to gain the weight back.. get taebo or go jogging.. try to get used to exercise and youll feel yourself start to tone up.

if you still want some diets heres a link to find several ones:

How many dress sizes do you have to go down? Because you can lose inches first before dropping the weight. 25 pounds seems like a drastic change and I don't think it's safe to drop that much in a month?

MIJA DRINK ALOT OF WATER!!!!




DAS ALL I REALLY KNOW!-N-2 ALSO NOT 2 EAT AFTER 6PM



LUPE

OH YEA I FORGOTS!!!! ALOT OF XERSISE!!!-N- DONT GO STOP EATING-K-!!!ESQUE LOTS OF PEOPLE THINK U CAN GET THINNER IF U WAS TO STOP EATING PERO DAS NOT TRUE!!!!!!!

There is no way that you can lose 25LBS in 4 weeks on any diet. That is like 7LBS a week. Some people are lucky enough to loose half a pound a week and those are the ones who go to fitness clubs everyday.

like i am not as skinny as most of yall and i am not that BIG pero still i would feel much better if i lost some weight maybe 25lbs is alot of weight 2 lose maybe atleast 15 or so pero yea i have been doing some situps!

damn grl thta's alot of lbs...to loose in a month or less...good luck! believe me if i knew a diet that worked fast my azz would DEFINATLEY be on it...

Man i tell myself everyday...."just dont say Super_size it"....but dayum...u know me....i have to have my super size fries,....so imma be like this for a while....lol

^^Girl, sit-ups aint gonna do nothin if dats ALL ur doin. You gotta go runnin or sumthin...trust me. I wanted to get skinny too..and so i started doin sit-ups every night, thinkin Id lose weight...NOPE. Wrong. All dat does is build muscle in ur tummy...DUH! lol I shoulda known dat. But since i have a fat belly...u cant even see da muscle...i still do em...and u still cant see da muscle. SO yea....u must be doin sumthin else too. Go runnin for a while...then do crunches at night...do some jumpin jacks too. And try to eat healthier...dats all i can think of. But theres no way u gonna lose 25 lbs...i agree with Numba1Stunna on dat.

I HEARD ABOUT THAT TO...IF YOU DRINK LOTS OF WATER SOME HOW YOU LOOSE WEIGHT....

just drop tha junk food! drop tha coke *if you drink any* tha chocolate tha burgers tha fries... start eating healthy... tha way i lost weight was by dancing cuz ionno if any of yall memba but i tried out for tha dance/drill team at my skool and just in tha practices of about one month i went down like 3 sizes and dropped bout 10 pounds which i felt good about and kept it down... so you can try dancin like every night or somethin or go out and run n drink water... if you really wanna loose weight youll know what to do...

heres a diet tip...DONT DIET!!! ur so young and u dont need all that stress on ur body. excersise and all is good but dont start trying all sorts of diets. im speaking from experience, it starts causing problems. i had a lot of wieght issues when i was younger and im still getting over it now. and im gonna be 22. its to ur best benefit to just eat healthy and excersise. dont try crash diets and diet pills and all that kinda stuff. its not worth it. just except urself as u are. some ppls bodies arent meant to be certain sizes.
