How do you fight the WEIGHT (11)

How do you lose weight?

How do you win fight fat and win?

Yes i know diet and exercise...yadda yadda but there is always more. Besides they say if you read/discuss it it helps in achieving it. ??

do you power up your diet?
have steps/routines to a sucessful plan to looking better and feeling better?

I have had weight issues all my life. It runs in my family and there is nothing much i can do about it.
Then i ended up in depression and a really bad life where i tried to kill the need for love and acceptance with food. So consequently i gained weight and i felt even more disgusting. I tried the gym and diets but nothing worked.
I would lose a couple of pounds and then i would hit another hole and the pounds are back.

I believe that not always is a diet or a plan or talking successful. But a change of life!
That was my case.
When my second son was born i was a porker i weighed 298 pounds! The heaviest i have ever been.
I managed to go down to 275 pounds but i was stuck there for ever.
Until i left my husband changed my life and made myself happy again.
The pounds started tumbling on their own. Now i weigh 235 pounds and i am happy.
That was my best diet.
So in other words make yourself happy and you will see the weight will go away with little effort.
It helped me maybe it will help others too.

I have the opposite problems. I've been doing weight gain antidiet (whatever you call it) since the beginning of April. It's working for me so far.

(i'm more of a low end average type if you google it).

well i can tell you from experience that diet alone does not help you lose weight

2 yrs ago i was 225 lbs and was diagnoised with diabetes was told to lose weight and i had been battle weight since i was 13 so i knew the only way i could do it was to do a complete lifestyle change.


I stopped drinking pop started eating more vegetables especially since i found out that they dont raise my blood sugar and started doing alot of walking and drinking more water

2yrs now since that day and i am 155 lbs, which is 70 lbs lighter and still have 20 to go or at least my doctor wants me to so i just keep eating the right stuff for me and get out and do lots of walking.

Oh i am only 5'2 so at 225 lbs it was not pretty and i hav the pictures to prove it.

I should it to a couple of friends who i made last summer and they said thats not you that cant be you but it was

Well to make a long story short. I was depressed and had suicidal thoughts big time. For almost 6 years i lived 24/7 in a trailer had no friends no life no support.

When i left my ex i went home again to my family and they have a farm. I started helping my dad with his work. I enjoyed every minute of it. It got me out of the house i was active and i moved around all day.
I was no longer depressed and i was happy. I changed my life which gave me the motivation i was lacking in Edmonton. I had the family support and i had control over my life again.

So with a little bit of work on the farm i lost the pounds. My muscles are strengthening the fat is disappearing and i am happy.

Wow great story. Congrats on your weight loss.

Veggies and Water...Interesting. Natural stuff. They say you are what you eat. I believe it.

Junk Food makes you fat. Pretty simple i guess eh.

Great.
Its amazing how a poor relationship can affect us so much via depression and or weight etc.

Glad to hear you changed your life. Stories like this are inspiring.
