Talk to your Dr. and a nutritionist for a specialized meal plan. In the mean time, eliminate fast food, fried food, sweets and candies and instead eat fruits, vegetables, fish and lean meat like turkey. That and some normal exercise like walking, will definitely help shed those pounds. \n\nBest wishes on your endeavors!\n\nDo NOT rush into heavy cardio before talking to your Dr. \nNo offense but at your weight you should have a proper check up first.

Well. See, I used to be 150, and i went to 130 in THREE MONTHS. that's twenty pounds in three months. I am about the same height as you too. The first five poundsyou try to lose are the easiest, although the rest are kinda... you gotta be determined.\nNO SUGAR OR GREASY FOODS for a while. just cut all the fatty stuff out. If you need something sweet CHEW ON SUGAR FREE GUM. or fruit. =] cut down on carbs and meat and pile on the veggies and fruit. don't snack in between, chew gum and drink water.\n\ngood luck

Don't do atkins, in the long run it'll cause heart damage and brain disease. Its not suprising that atkins himself died of a heart attack. If you simply need a meal plan, weight loss program go with south beach, but follow it closely. It'll jump start your metablolism, but you need to follow it and realize that you can't lose it all at once. Its about changing how you eat as well as what you eat. Its better to lose 15lb a year and keep it off than to lose 15lb in a month and have 20lb of gained weight the next month.

I don't know anything sbout your health, so you would need to check with your doctor before you start any type of diet. What you want is a diet you can stick with for the rest of your life. Your main concern is cutting calories, and increasing exersice. I made up a diet that works very well for me. For breakfast around 7am I eat a bowl of cereal and cup of yogurt(I stay away from non or lowfat yogurt because it is sweetened with aspartame which is very bad for your health, full fat yogurt will not hurt you). For lunch I can eat whatever I please. I usually have some type of salad with meat or fish. I can have pizza, or a burger if that's what I am craving that day. Then for dinner I have the same thing I had for breakfast. The cereal can be oatmeal with you don't like cold cereal or milk. You can also substitute the yogurt for a canned, fresh or frozen fruit or vegetable at breakfast and dinner. For snacks throughout the day, I may eat some berries or melon, or other fruits. I also am a big fan of baby carrots, they are portable and a very healthy snack. Sherbet, popsicles, nuts, and granola make great snacks too! The most important thing to remember is not to starve yourself. Your body will lack the nutrients it needs, and you are more likely to binge. Keep the exercise at a maximum. You can go for walks around th block, or in the park. Pilates is excellent for strengthening and sculpting muscles. You can always treat yourself. A few times a week I will have a candy bar, or a slice of pie, and there is nothing wrong with that. Good luck, and be careful.

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

Maybe try a new program that gives you more options..  From what i have learned..  you should never make anything off limits  but instead take in small does things you like..   Diet should not be an awful experience.  I wish you luck..

I recommend that you READ the South Beach Diet book.  \n\nBut I do not recommend DIET.  I recommend that you make a permanent change to your attitude and what and when you eat.  \n\nStop eating food that will KILL you.
