You have probably been told drink water or crystal light.  I suggest green tea.  The Japanese kind, and it is usually sugarless, but it helps you a lot.\n\nGood luck.

I tend to put my own needs last...especially since my husband has an undiagnosed health condition.  Try giving yourself one full day a week for pampering yourself.  I sometimes find time to do it and it's definitely a mood booster.

I take the safe route and eat Cheerios.  They are tasty and help your cholesterol at the same time.  Jesus never did that for me.

ok, first of all go buy a bunch of lemons.  Lemons are a proven appetite suppresant.  Next, go get a meal replacement powder drink that has a bunch of vitamins and minerals and you add water to.  Always make sure to keep your nutrition up even though you're reducing calorie intake.  Drink your shake 3 times a day, and in between drink your water with lots of lemon!  Next, go walking or jogging, anything you can do for a LONG time.  Remember, intensity is NOT as important as duration of the activity.  You can burn mad calories by doing something that is easy for a Long time.  Good luck!  And if you get lightheaded, STOP!

You can take the B-Vites in the A.M..Most do this because that is where You are getting the energy. Just read instructions on bottle to determine how much B's are safe. Mine(Nature Made Brand) say...One caplet daily w/ a Meal (or You'll get jittery like You drank too much  coffee) . Mine has Vitamin C also. This helps Your body absorb Iron better. B-Vites are great.  They boost the Immune system.I also take Nature Made  Omega3 Fish Oil capsules. These soften brain receptor cells to improve thought processes. I take at night, so when I awake, I am refreshed and ready for the day. Get the odorless kind. The don't break down until in lower intestine so You cannot taste or burp or even smell the fishy taste You get when using the regular kind. Fish oil also helps prevent coronary heart disease, and promotes cellular regeneration!!!! 60 soft gels @ Rite-Aid are only $9.99. It may sound gross, but believe me, It helps tremendously. Also helps keep u regular...if u get My drift. I hope this helps!!!! Any vitamin in excess is as bad as anything else in excess. You are wise for asking!!!! Great Luck to You and God  Bless!!! J ~  P.S. Skip the B-12 @ 4th meal because You are getting enough W/ the complex. Too much can cause health problems! You are taking B-12 in the complex. You can also see a Dr. for Vit B shots to lose weight if heavy. My mother-in -law gets these and they give her tons of energy to burn fat. 100.00 a pop though!!!

You've got a long life ahead of you, Lord willing, so plan for the long term.  Educate yourself about nutrition, and eat *good* food.  (Learn about organic food here, too.) Step one here is to get rid of the junk in your diet.  Step two -- which needs to come very quickly -- is to find good-quality nutrition that also tastes good.  You *have* to do this, or you won't sustain the change in your diet (this is a pressure release valve: if you don't do it, you get tired of eating things you don't like and go back to eating good-tasting junk).  Step three is to do a little judicious cheating.  This is MANDATORY; I'm really not kidding here.  Pick a day, even if it's just once a month, and on that day eat anything you want.  (This is another pressure-release valve.)  Don't worry about diet pills; you eat right and exercise and your body will do the rest for you.  And you'll feel better, too, because you won't have a bunch of chemicals floating around in your system, and you won't have to keep taking pills to keep the weight off.\n\nNow for the 'getting into shape' part.  You can't do that by changing your diet; I don't care how healthy you eat.  You've got to exercise.  If you're looking for a cheap routine, there are a number of sources online that give the details of the Five Tibetans.  You could do that once a day to start.  After a couple of weeks, bump it up to twice; after a couple more weeks, to three times.  Don't overdo it -- 3 reps each exercise is plenty to start with, and go slowly.  Don't force anything, especially anything involving your spine, or you'll hurt yourself (this is a Bad Thing, because if you're hurt, it's harder to exercise).  Pay particular attention to how each exercise works your breathing.  When you start, just move slowly through the exercise with your lungs in neutral and see what happens to your breath.  You should notice that some movements cause inhalation, and others compress your lungs and cause you to exhale.  Use that information -- breathe with the movements, not against them.  If you want better-quality instruction and have some money to spend, check out Steve Barnes' Five Minute Miracle.  If you want more variety, look into Scott Sonnon's Flow-Fit and Intu-Flow programs. (Intu-Flow will also get you started with weight training, which is a good thing for fat loss as well.)  All of these start easily enough to be accessible to just about anyone.  With any of these, set yourself a goal of learning at least one new thing a week about your body, and when you do, write it down.  This will become a journal of insights about you and how you work -- a great tool, and a great encouragement on the bad days.\n\nNow this last bit may be a little hard to hear, but pay attention because it's critical to your success.  Real change that lasts is rarely sudden. There are ways to drop lots of weight, very quickly,  but there is almost no way to drop weight quickly *and keep it off.*  Patient, steady progress will give you better results than 100% all-out effort that exhausts you after a month.  Changing overnight is like quitting smoking -- as Mark Twain said, "It's easy; I've done it hundreds of times."  But change that sticks is slower and more careful.  Take the time to find a way to really accept each little bit of change into your lifestyle.  You can't afford to ignore the 'growing pains' caused by the change.  Pay attention to the inconveniences that each change creates and do your best to eliminate them.  Pay attention to the feelings of resentment or deprivation that may crop up and find a way to alleviate them.  All of this is how you actually get the change to be a comfortable part of your normal life, and it's why lasting change takes so long.  Put in the effort; you'll be glad you did.\nThe core problem here is that human beings crave stability at every level of ou

It's not what you take, it is what you don't take. Stick to drinking water.  Avoid salt, sugar, caffeine. Eat raw veggies.

walk,walk,walk---and drink alot of water. My son is 12 and is at 174...We are beginning to start the same for him. Also trim all fat from meat and eat salads. And eat your veggies plain. Limit your starches but remember you do need some carbs for energy. Good luck to you and be sensible and careful. Your health is most important so don't try those "quicky fad things" that can cause you problems. And remember-----you are you from the inside out, and if you glow from within,THAT will shine on the outside...Oh and if you are wanting a snack,try a glass of water first with a piece of fruit or celery and peanut butter...

Sweetie consult your physician, eat right, excercise, look for an organic gocery store, most regular grocery stores have food that comes from Bio-farms and unhealthy chemicals.  I also suggest the book - eat right for your type- you have to know your blood type, though- that has really worked for me and it was suggested to me by my family doctor when I had began to gain weight.

I would suggest taking B complex. The B vitamins help our body and nervous system stay healthy. You should be able to find these in any stores. I would read the labels and make sure it has all the B's.

I know you say you hardly eat but what are you eating? What are you drinking? Water is a wonderful way to continue to flush out your system along w/ lemon juice no sugar. Watch your intake closer it could be what your eating. Not how much. Also, if you don't eat enough your body will hold on to everything you do.  Keep on exercising and keep up to wonderful work you are doing to stay off drugs. That is number 1. Weight is number 2. Keep a food diary. Try to go with the old saying: Eat like Rich in the morning like middle class for lunch and poor in the evening. Fresh vegetables and fruit should be eaten before evening so not to firment in the stomach and if possible no heavy meats in the evening and if you can you last meal should be before 6 or 7 p. But one thing you need to remember your body has been through a lot it's trying to hold on to everything to stay and get health. Keep working out eat health, drink plenty of water. Diet drinks are not the best and you will do wonderfully. A use of another crutch is not what you need. Just your determination and the thought that "no matter what my mind and body will be at it's healthest." Watch the processed sugar intake.

1. Have lots of Green Tea-works very well.\n\n2. Dates are a very good source of energy, almost like time release capsules, which keep you going all day long. But make sure you get fresh dates--and I mean the eating sort!
