Default Can anyone suggest any proven ways for weight loss?????

Hi everyone, I have been really obsessed with my weight problem. I am a 33 year old female and have gained 90lbs which makes the count to 210. I recently took out some of my summer clothes and they don?t fit me anymore!!! This is a real tragedy for me. How can I not wear the ones I adore...moreover the new look is getting me mad (with the comments from my friends). I know quite a few ways to start losing weight??.but I don?t really feel that, with so many people failing using these methods that I will make it through. Does anyone know a proven way to reduce the weight?

Please help me?..this is killing me!!!

Hello Sinerita , I too is too fat and I feel that diet & exercise is the go and also may have to adjust the insulin too as you get into a regime.
Also look at what you are eating as looking at food is fuel to exercise and don't be afraid of sweat!!! and drink water too as you go and do the exercise.

I have been the same weight for years and I think I aquire that by not overeating and keeping active. Is your insulin set correctly so you don't have to eat to feed the insulin you take to bring up lows? I wish you good luck.

Loosing weight is not a big deal now days, you don't need to worry about it. As everything has a solution. My brother was facing the same problem then his friend suggested him to try Mark Patrick's Program . The programs are just incredible and a new way to get better health.
I hope that you would love to know about this.

You need to go to therapy to find out what the underlying cause may be. it has to be more than a craving...maybe a hormone imbalance or something medically or mentally out of whack. you need to start exercising and eat fresh fruits/vegies, berries and fiber when you want to eat the junk food. occupy your time with reading, walking, hanging out with friends, etc. attend church. having God on your side always helps!!!!

I would suggest going to your Dr. and having him run some simple blood tests to make sure that it is not a medical problem that has made you gain weight. I would also check into your diet.. the types/amounts of foods your eating. I read someone suggested making sure that your eating properly to balance out the insulin your using. Good Luck to you and keep us all informed

I have nearly finished the course and I like and understand this and I don't have to chase the insulin that makes you fat.

Do you have this problem?

I am not sure if the weight that I have put back on is due to being happy or due to diabetes.. I am now 125lbs and pretty happy with this weight.. I have more problem with feeling "bloated" now though.. don't know what that could be from either overeating (though don't feel I do ) or if my stomach is just happy to be able to eat again without feeling sick...

Default Sounds healthy

Meg, I think you must have good control of your diabetes if you have gained needed weight and are happy and feeling good. Congratulations! You will adjust to your new weight and feel great. Stay healthy! Good luck!

Exclamation Losing weight?

I've always found the OLD Weight Watchers eating plan is best for me. I can't be doing with having a regime that "allows" you to eat cream cakes etc. as the new ww does with it's points system. Just need the willpower to keep to it - that's the defining factor in anything!
All the best to anyone struggling with this wretched enemy.
