Gedt positive! that is the first thing. Set a goal that is livable and study up on the best plan that will fit your needs. It is not easy but if you focus on what you want and forgive yourself when you falter. You will do it. I use the weight watchers point system. JUST LOVE YOURSELF

You pretty much have the same problem as me. Exercise and a chenge in diet (not a diet you go off of when you're done) are the fastest and healthiest way. Don't rush, that's when it gets unhealthy, that's why I'm on the virge of an eating disorder like anorexia. Find you appropriate BMI (Body Mass Index) online and make your goal weight out of that. Then, count calories (1000 to 1500 a day) and exercise (try to) at least 30 minutes a day. I like running, but you should find something you like that you can stick to. I've heard that the whole six small meals a day thing works for quick weight loss but I didn't really like it, it was a hassle. If you need any help send me a message, I'm ETFoxy.

You never mentioned what exercise you are doing. You need to exercise.
You may not have a target number for your weight and that is a good thing.
Your taget should be to become healthier and you will automatically lose the excess weight.

For exercise, try to find what you enjoy because you need to continue with exercise all through your life.
You need cardio to get rid of the fat, but you also need some weight training to keep your bones and muscles in good shape.

Forget about dieting; if anyone says diets are good, they are not telling you the truth.
For permanent loss of weight, you need to be eating clean and healthy.
Cut out the bad fats, all trans fats, sugars, and the white stuff like white flour, and white breads and such. Eat whole wheat. Start adding more veggies and fruits into your eating.
The mention of 6 meals a day has great value. You should be eating something every 3 hours to avoid sugar spikes and cravings. You don't eat 6 big meals a day, rather 3 regular meals and 3 small snacks between those meals. Start drinking tons of water because water helps the body rid itself of fat.

Whatever you do with your eating habits and exercising, make sure it's things that you can do permanently.
Temporary changes result in only temporary results.
Diet and exercise can get the weight off, but if you go back to the old bad habits after the weight loss, you know what will happen.
Yup, the weight will come back and you will also likely gain back more than you lost.

I recommend going to this website: http://www.calorie-count.com/
I just found it today nad its really great!! I'm trying to lose weight as well. What you have to do is eat healthy (fruits, veggies, lean meats--if you are a meat eater, whole grains, low fat milk, limit sugar and salt intake) and exercise and be active as much and often as possible!! Good luck and feel free to message me if you need any help or support or anything. Good luck!!

start off small. walk down the street or something. then add more each day.
and if you want to lose the weight for good, you can not lose it fast. one pound a week is what the doctors say.
plus, don't eat three big meals a day. have five smaller ones.
stay positive and i know you can do it

First of all I would find out if I really am overweight. Then after finding that out I would find out how many calories I would need to eat for the weight that I want to weigh? I would start eating that amount of calories for that specific number just to make sure that I wouldn't want to binge or starve. I would then excercise three times a week in moderation equaling to three hours max. Remember that losing more than two pounds a week is unhealthy. And that 3000 calories burns a pound. I know it is hard and I hope that I was able to help you in some way.

Thanks everyone for your replys but exercise is a real problem at the moment because for some reason every time I do any proper exercise apart from walking (I walk every where possible approx 1-2 hours aday)my lungs cant handel it and they end up bleeding I am currently seeing the doc who is running tests and I have to go for a scan in 2 weeks to try and find out what the problem is can anyone reccomened any LIGHT exercise apart from walking

You should be asking your dr for direction in the way of exercise because of you current health issues!
As you don't know what you problem is, you can't know what would be safe for you to do in the way of exercise.

Ask your dr.
