text: Try walking, running, moving in general for a half an hour a day. Don't let up. Pep talks always help me. Don't eat when you're not hungry and drink plenty of water. Don't deny yourself the foods you want. Just eat them in moderation and slowly your body won't want fatty or sugary foods. But if you deny yourself a candy bar or something like that, you're more likely to cheat on your diet and/or binge eat.
