1. Walk the Dog

“I take me dog for a walk every morning. Even if it’s just for 15 minutes and around my block. When the weather isn’t playing nice my pup is still excited to go out. It’s her enthusiasm that pushes me to keep going. All that walking really added up for me. Since starting, I’ve been able to lose over 50 lbs.” Danni Altz, Denver, CO

2. Swap your go-to order

“When the waiters know your name, it usually means you eat out too much. I was eating out up to ten times per week! By cutting this to once per week and ordering a grilled chicken salad instead of a large bowl of carbs I was able to lose over 30 lbs in one month.” -Carey Butler, Joplin, MO

3. Skip the salty aisle

“I was able to reach my weight loss goal after I completely stopped buying salty snacks at the grocery store. If I wanted to snack on some chips or a candy bar then I would walk to the store and buy it. The huge inconvenience made me totally ignore my craving” -Mary Del Banlo, Worcester, MA

4. Have a 300-calorie breakfast

“I used to always skip my breakfast, but now I always have it. I like to eat peanut butter and whole grain toast. This is about 300 calories and helps keep my hunger down so I snack less throughout the day. In about 3 months of doing this I was able to lose 65 lbs.” Hailey Joy, Tulsa, OK

5. Get fit in five

“I try and squeeze in small spurts of exercise whenever I can. Like doing a few crunches while a watch TV or doing a few jumping jacks after doing the dishes. This helps to burn extra calories and keeps me from mindless munching in from of the television. By doing this I was able to lose 55 lbs in a few months and my clothing fits way better” —Marilyn Tricano, Hammond, IN

6. Kick the habit

7. Do a purge

“One day I just empited my entire pantry and replaced the unhealthy foods I was overeating with low calorie snacks like Special K cereal and sunflower seeds. By doing this I was able to trim 30 lbs in 1 month. I’m thinner now than before I had my daughter!” —Lori Prenup, Miami, FL

8. Healthy up your happy hour

“My friends and I would always grab a bite to eat after work, and it was usually something fried. Then we decided to change things and instead of going out to eat greasy food we would walk around a local track and just talk. We’re all down 40 lbs” —Ellen Setzler, Cleveland, OH

9. Get fired up

“I put all my favorite jams on my phone. Now I look forward to going to the gym. It really helps energize me, and helps me run faster on the treadmill. Because I want to hear all the songs I end up workout out longer now too. In two months I was able to lose 75lbs and now have legs to die for”—Karen Knitly, York, ME

10. Pile on the veggies
