Answer #1

you have to eat more than salad. Try eating leaner meats like ground turkey, they even make turkey bacon and sausage. Eat your 5-9 serving of fruits and veggies a day. drink lots of water… normally half your body weight in ounces. for you it would be 82oz. a day (seems like a lot but it helps) That is an average weight for you height, but if you are wanting to trim down the fat do cardio exerices as well as ab workouts and working out with small weights. that will tone you up and make you leaner.
