There is no way to get rid of that double chin. The only way is through weight loss. Just try to eat more healthier, and you will notice a difference. Try cutting Junk food, and fast food out of your diet. Also, sweets and soda. See if that helps.
Here are some extra tips.
Exercise and eat right.
Eat a 1200 -1400 calorie diet, and exercise one hour a day for 5 days a week.
Eat foods such as chicken breast, turkey, fish, egg whites, (try to stay away from the egg yolks), anything wheat is usually really good for you (wheat bread & pita bread) Incorporate a lot of fruits and vegetables into your diet. Fish is also good. Try to eat three meals a day, or you can split up your meals into six meals a day. Stay away from trans fats, and stay on a low fat diet (20 grams per day). Oatmeal, and those healthy bars are good. For snacks, you can eat those 100 calorie packs.
There are also a variety of pastas now that offer whole wheat--just letting you know.
A sample lunch can include: a sandwich on wheat, with a bottle of water and a large apple. Breakfast could be oatmeal, or yogurt with fruit. Dinner could vary. You could bake fish, or bake chicken. Just stay away from junk food and greasy foods. Do not fight untill dinner. Eat healthy snacks. You can eat pop corn without better, celery, carrots, fruits, and soy chips.
For toning, you can do crunches, and push ups. For exercise take up running, swimming, jump roping or anything that works the heart. You can create simple workouts at home without a gym. (you probably exercise, or know the difference kinds since you are already in sports teams.
Good luck!
