Answer
Dear Rosalia, Do you want to lose weight for you, or do you want to lose weight for your mom? Lose weight if you are doing it for yourself. Motivation has to come from within, I can't help you there.
To lose weight, you must walk everyday for at least 30 minutes. Next you must try to eat around 1500 calories per day, everyday. Read labels and keep track of your intake. Healthy foods usually contain less calories, so you can eat more. Chicken, fish, low fat dairy, whole grain bread, fruits, healthy fats like olive oil, and vegetables are examples of healthy foods. On average you can lose 10 pounds by June 17th. Start tomorrow! Hope that helps, Laura Kraemer,Slimkids.com
