Use a Calorie tracker, I use www!.thedailyplate!.com
Losing weight is about being at a calorie deficit, aim for a calorie deficit of no more than 500 a day any more than that and you risk slowing your metabolism
Keep your muscles active to ensure you lose as little muscle as possible!.
Also because spot reduction does not exist do chest centered weight training put some muscle behind the fat there so that when you do lose the 25lbs you minimize the drop in cup sizeWww@Answer-Health@Com

Well i would personally recommend just some basic moderate cardio !.!. this could include anything from going on a little jog to using the treadmill in a gym or if you have one at home thats perfect!.!. and one thing that i think that really helps with cardio is music!.!. if you have the right music you might be able to run for longer which means more fat burning!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
If you run a few times a week and do push ups and sit ups it will tone your body and give you a nice shape!.
