A steady diet with lasting resultsFirst of all, congratulations on setting a reasonable time frame in which to lose the weight. There are no quick fix diets to lose 35 pounds fast, and 6 months is a perfectly reasonable time frame in which to take weight lossnice and easy, as well as in a healthy manner.

It would be helpful to first calculate how many calories it takes your body to maintain the current weight that you are at. Many BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) calculators online can help with this. Once you get this figure, any number of calories consumed underneath it will start your weight loss process. To loss the number of pounds you wish to shed, I would suggest cutting about 200-300 calories off of your BMR. It will offer you sufficient energy for the day while your body will make up for the calorie loss by eating away at excess fat instead.

Secondly, get exercise. Many people groan at this because Americans have grown accustomed to a very sedantary way of life, but it does not take much to start getting active. A 20-30 minute walk or light jog is all you need to boost your metabolism and burn fat quicker. Start out at about 25 minutes of walking or jogging a day for the first few weeks, and slowly build up to about 45 to an hour. Remember, you're in no rush, so build it up according to how comfortable you feel. It's alright to feel out of breath and burned out, because it's only signaling that you are building up endurance and getting the workout you need to burn the extra pounds.

Basic bodily needs, such as protein and fiber, are crucial, as well as meal portioning. Eat anywhere between 25-40 grams of fiber a day, as this will help to move waste through the body, as well as offering a multitude of other health benefits. Try to consume protein in every meal of the day, whether it is a glass of milk in the morning or a chicken sandwich for lunch. Remember the fist rule to help you portion: One serving size of food should be about the size of a clenched fist. If you don't know exactly how many calories you are consuming in that particular meal, use the fist rule to at least portion it to an acceptable amount.

Exercise, eat 3-4 SMALL meals a day, snack on veggies or bars with fiber to help you feel satisfied all day, and, most importantly, never say "I can't do it".
