DIET
A few basics on diet which may help you out.
Eat 6 small meals a day rather than 3 bigger meals, every 3 hours is a good indicator of meal frequency.

EXERCISE
ok.. since im a male, im definitely not going to bomb you with all the crazy things that i do. I shall not elaborate like crazy but i shall just cover the surface of exercising.
.Set a routine
.Pain is not a good indication of stopping your exercise ( follow your routine )
.doing cardio exercises help you strengthen your heart and lose weight as well. e.g swimming, jogging, cycling.
.space out your cardio exercise at least 6 hours apart. e.g if you do intensive jogging at 12 pm.. do your next one at 6 pm.. you do not want to burn your muscle as if you do not give yourself enough rest, you start burning muscle instead of fat.
