Please, correct particularly gramatical erroers

I am going to write about my goal. My goal for the second semester is to lose weight. I noticed that my body got fatter than before. Looking in the mirror the other day, I saw a pig staring at me. So far I have tried lots of things to lose weight, but nothing has worked. I think it’s because I was not determined. From now on, the girl who used to be weak-willed will turn into the girl of strong will. I have two plans. First, I will get up 30 minutes earlier and do exercise for 30 minutes, such as jogging, yoga, jumping rope. After that, I will be sure to have breakfast. It will not only be good for my health but will help me to concentrate on the lesson. Second, I will never eat snacks and chew food for a long time. Experts say chewing food is good for diet. I wish my extra fat were removed from my body.

It is grammatically correct, but awkward.
It implies an operation such as liposuction, though.
Doctors remove fat through a needle.

"Were" is correct. The subjunctive mood comes after verbs such as "wish".
