I'm sorry, but there are no miracle cures. You are doing exactly what you should be doing - getting some help. If you find it hard to eat less and exercise more, then getting help is good.\n\nYour therapist should be trying to break the connection you make between eating and being happy. Once they can un-brainwash you from the years of conditioning society has given you to tell you that eating lots makes you happy, and that sugary and fatty food are treats, then you're well on the way to sorting it out.\n\nGood luck to you. Keep doing the right thing.. it may take a while but once it happens it will be permanent.

Find a place to do it supervised. It is a lot of weight in a short time. I would see a doctor first and check what you need to look at, and get checked while loosing weight.\nYou want to stay healthy, don't you?

Hey Dale Im in the same predicament I am 260 and Im only 5'8 so I need to loose about 120 pounds.  Now tomorrow I am going to begin with my diet which includes counting calories under 1200 a day but you just need to make sure you eat three healthy meals a day and dont waste them with stupid stuff like sweets or eating fast food. I dont know how much exercise you get a week but try to get some walking, jogging and if possible about 15 minutes of aerobics every other day.  Its good that you quit the soda now make sure drinking lots of water....Good luck maybe we can motivate each other Richtorres_2000 IM

If you are serious and understand that there is no overnight way to loose the amount you are asking about maybe this will help. At about 5 lbs. a week it will take  about 10 weeks to loose the weight You would be better to set your sights on 2-3 lbs per week. NEVER, EVER eat anything after 5pm. Never eat just before going to bed. Eat only twice a day. Drink water, lots of water, and a glass of warm water before bed. Drinking water helps the body to flush out excess fat wastes and toxic body waste and helps with giving you a full feeling. It also helps with mental mentality. Have a bit of fat in some form early in the day, like REAL butter on a piece of toast, this will make the body feel like it is not being slighted. If you must eat sweets try the sugar-free kind, they cost a bit more but are worth it in the long run, pace yourself with them. Get out of the house every day if only to walk once around the block, don't rush, notice everything around you, think about what you see. Add more blocks as you feel as ease with, change routes. If you are pressed into feeling bad by someone near, start doing a chore, laundry, dishs, vacuuming, taking out the trash (and you can sneak that walk as you drop the trash in the trashcan as you go by), STAY AWAY from the ice box. Binge eating only makes the problem worse and you feel you are less of a person after it is over with. If you get weak when out and hit a fast food place and after ordering you feel you shouldn't be doing that, DON'T !!!!, pay for the food, walk OUTSIDE!, don't sit down, and drop the stuff in the trash can or give it to someone outside or an animal. You will feel odd doing this but then you will feel that you just took control over yourself and it will get you thinking about the other things in your life you should look into taking back control over, and you just proved to yourself that it is not impossible. Try taking yourself out of the circle you focus on all the time and place yourself on the edge and others in the center. When I was losing weight I found that taking Chromium tablets each day curtailed my craving for chocolate. I am a big choc-0-halic. Amino acids also helped for control (all over the counter stuff). Make sure you are not alergic to any of this though. And do not make a big deal of your trying to loose weight to others, keep low key, pretend to be eating so other do not try to keep handing you stuff to stuff in your face. I stopped smoking by not telling anyone and keeping a half pack of ciggs in my shirt pocket so all could see I had it and they did not offer me any. It was worth their bumming them from me to ward off any questions. Nobody near around you will help you if it is not in their best interest to keep you in the position that is more conveient to them. FAKE them out! Depend on yourself, in the end you are the only one who is there for you no matter what is said. O.K. eat more veggies, take them with you, snack on them, unlimited, try all the diffrent veggies at the store, take time out to go to the store just to see what is offered, strange to you or not, try it! And stay out of the other areas of the store. Well, that's what I can tell you for what it is worth. I gained a lot of weight after 3 surgeries and am an older person in my 50's, and now it is so hard to loose, so very hard. Do it now while you can, and like yourself, not what others want you to change into for them, you are not them, you are YOU, and control will come with practice over time.

there is no easy way.  if you adopt a training routine and stick with it, you'll not only loose the weight, but you'll feel better day to day and gain mental strength from it.  \n\nthere is no magic formula.  adjust your eating habits and begin exercising.  if you have the money, get a personal trainer.  it would be a good investment, as nothing feels better than being healthy.

Please don't listen to anyone that tells you that "you don't need surgery" and other BS.  It is your body, your decision.  They are not you....\n\nwww.obesityhelp.com\n\nObesity help is a great website and they have lots of info on surgeons.  My suggestion is to find surgeons in you area and attend any informational seminars that they have.  Make sure that the surgeon has a really good follow up program.  Good surgeons will want to follow you for about 5 years post op.  I have read so many stories about people not having any post op help and the numerous problems that they faced because of it....Good Luck!!!!

1) Don't use pills--first step is to depend on yourself. If you take pills you have to take them for the rest of your life. Take it from someone who has tried--they are a quick fix until you stop taking them.\n\n2) Don't diet, just eat in moderation. This is a lifetime change, not so quickly changed. Learn to enjoy what you eat to the point where you don't need to stuff yourself. Why eat a whole piece of cake when a bite will do just as well? Also, don't scold yourself if you cheat. Just get back on track again.\n\n3) Exercise EACH day. You have control over this! Even if you don't want to, just pop in a DVD and exercise for 30 minutes. I run in place of 30 minutes if I don't want to go to the gym. Also, start small--if you can't run, then walk and build up.\n\n4) Get a buddy to hold you accountable. Better yet, go to a class. Cycling, jazzercise, something. Find something that works for YOU. I LOVE water aerobics and had it had not been for a shoulder surgery I would have lost a lot of weight!\n\n5) Go out and buy a swimming suit in a relative size--if you're around 210 try a swimming suit in a size 14. That's about 1-2 sizes, right? Go slow. You want to start small and work up. \n\n6) About keeping track.\nDaily: write down what you eat--you'll be able to see how much you eat each day. Don't worry or cut calories--it's just a reality wake up call. \nWeekly: weigh yourself. Don't do it more than weekly though. The scale doesn't tell you everything you need to know.\nMonthly: Measure yourself: arms, bust, waist, hips, thigh, knee, and calf--it will take you about 3+ weeks to see a change, but when you do you'll be able to see your progress. Amazing how that works.\n\n7) Get help, if you need it to stay on track. Weight Watchers has a great monthly pass program where you can buy online and class access monthly ($15/month I think). Studies have proven that WW has the highest success rate. \n\n8) Reward yourself, but not with food--you know those shoes you love? When you hit 170, you get to go out and buy them! Set goals that you can achieve, and enjoy doing it! For me it was getting a massage and taking the day off from my kid. \n\nGood luck!!
