I want to lose excess fat any help?

Hi, Im size 8 but still have a few wobby bits like on my legs ,tum, hips ect.
I need to know what healthy foods there are but i am a very piccy eater i absolutly hate salads.
Im going to try juicing my own fruit but i need to also eat healthy low fat food.
Can anyone help with this i will be truely grateful thanks.
Answer:
I am the same as you, I just find that going to the gym everyday does the job. I go for 45mins Monday - Friday and the same at the weekends plus a swim session. I weight train every other day and do tummy exercises the days inbetween with 30min runs on everyday. I always watch what I eat going for the low fat option. The only thing that will shift those last few pounds is exercise because the fat lays so deeply it needs to be turned into muscle. Plenty of lunges and weights should do the trick. But don't give up it takes at least 3 months to see definition.
Just stay away from foods high in fat and sugar.if you have to stop at a McDonald order a grilled chicken sandwich with a salad instead of a burger with fries.Eat lesser portions drink lots of water and exercise... cardio and weight training is so good for you.
If you hate salads...you probably haven't tasted them all ! Try a few things you haven't tried !Eat more vegetables , if you can't stomach salads..or even if you do manage to find salad stuff you like ! They will make you feel full , with hardly any calories in whatsoever !Eat fruit , or jellies ..for the same reasons as above.Drink more water , cos we confuse the hunger / thirst signal from the brain..and often take in calories from food , when our body is asking for water !Avoid fatty foods and foods cooked in fat..avoid chocolates , toffees and other sweets..avoid sugary foods, avoid alcohol , cos it makes you more hungry.and fills you full of useless calories, avoid cakes , biscuits , and savoury foods...and exercise !One of the best forms of exercise , to lose weight is to dance.then running , walking , cycling , sex , gym etc..Eat smaller portions of everything that isn't salad , vegetable or fruit ! About half the size of what you would normally eat !Hope that helps !
Stay away from simple carbs like sugar, white flour, white rice.
yOU should avoid to eat oil contented food. Check following website to know more.
Always Think Fit:First step in exercise is to always Think FIT. To make physical improvements, you need to work your body harder than usual. This is referred to as the overload principle. As your body becomes more conditioned, you need to increase the frequency, intensity, or time of your workouts in order to continue improving your fitness levelChoosing an Exercise:
The best exercise is an activity that you enjoy enough to really pursue enthusiastically.
鈥ndoor (Facility) Activities: If the treadmill, stairmaster, rowing machine or stationery cycle doesn't excite you, sample some group activities that strike your fancy. Participate in a group cycling class, beat stress with yoga, find balance with martial arts, stay cool with indoor swimming, or kick some you-know-what with boxaerobics.1. Change your eating habits (i.e. start eating smaller portions of food) before if you ate a full plate of food try eating 2/3 of a plate instead.
2.
o Substitute aspartame for sugar
o Try eating 3 or 4 smaller meals during the day rather than 2 large ones
o Eat your main large meal at midday with the other meals much smaller in content
o Don't eat heavy meals late in the evening as the body wont have time to digest it so it ends up stored as fat in your body.
o Balance your meals out during the day so in one day you have a mix of protein, carbohydrate and vitamins
o Drink lots of water during the day and before, during and after exercise, you should drink at least 8 big glasses of water per 24 hours
o Drink alcohol in moderation
o Stop smoking if you smoke or cut down
o Eat more fibre i.e. pulses grains nuts, pasta, brown rice, cereals, fresh fruit
o Eat more vegetables as part of your diet
o Eat less dairy products or choose those with less fat content i.e. cottage cheese
o Try steaming or poaching food instead of frying it, frying adds calories by the bucketful
o Cut down on Red meat and eat more lean or better still chicken and fish instead
o Use low fat oils in cooking i.e. sunflower, corn or Mazola
o Cut down on your salt intake, there are hidden salts even in tinned foods
o Try substituting carrots or fresh fruit instead of biscuits and sweetmeat when you have a craving for something in between meals.
o Drink semi or skimmed milk as opposed to full cream
Simply choose a diet which is low in fat and cholesterol, moderate in sugar and salt and high in fibre but at the same time has a variety of everything thus making it a balanced diet.Calculate your BMR!!
BMR means Basal Metabolic Rate.It is used to estimate how many calories you should consume.By using a simple formula called the Harris-Benedict principle, you can assess your BMR.
Your BMR is the amount of energy your body needs to function.Then, to lose weight, you'll need to cut calories or burn extra calories and shoot for a level lower than the results you get with this formula.
We use about 60 percent of the calories we consume each day for basic bodily functions such as breathing.Other factors that influence your BMR are height, weight, age and sex.
Step One : Calculate your BMR with the following formula:
鈥omen: BMR = 655 + (4.35 x weight in pounds) + (4.7 x height in inches) - (4.7 x age in years)
鈥en: BMR = 66 + (6.23 x weight in pounds) + (12.7 x height in inches) - (6.8 x age in years)
Step two : In order to incorporate activity into your daily caloric needs, do the following calculation:
鈥f you are sedentary : BMR x 1.2
鈥f you are lightly active: BMR x 1.375
鈥f you are moderately active (You exercise most days a week.): BMR x 1.55
鈥f you are very active (You exercise daily.): BMR x 1.725
鈥f you are extra active (You do hard labor or are in athletic training.): BMR x 1.9
Create a Calorie Deficit:
In order to lose weight, you must create a calorie deficit. It is easier and healthier to cut back your calorie intake a little bit at a time.
Every 3,500 calories is equivalent to 1 pound.
If you cut back 500 calories a day, you will lose 1 pound per week.
If you exercise to burn off 500 calories a day you will also lose 1 pound per week.
Ideally, you should do a combination of both, (e.g. cut back 250 calories; burn an extra 250 calories).
