How did you lose so much weight and how did you do it?

Answer 1

I gained a great deal of weight being bedridden and five years ago I lost 100lb.. So I know it can be done. What I did was I cut out bread, pastry, candy, Milk products, and rice. I only ate protein like chicken, turkey, and fish. I ate vegetables including potatoes without any fat or cooking oil. I had at least two pieces of fruit the day. I drank it at least 2qt. of water a day. It took me over a year to lose the weight, but it did come off. So please don't give up. I also used the supplement chromium, one tablet three times a day. That really helped me not crave food.

Answer 2

I lost 23 pounds last year by modifying my diet and exercise habits. The first 20 came off in 4 months, the last 3 in maintenance over the last 8 months of the year. Link to the free diet and exercise website I use is at the bottom (you need to register).

Diet and exercise is the only way that has been proven to take the pounds off in the long term.

Answer 3

I didn't. But i have lost a stone by drinking lots of water and stopping overeating. Whenever I feel hungry I drink lots of water to fill me up and then I try to wait for the next meal instead of snacking. I've tried exercising a lot!

Answer 4

Answer 5

Diets do not work. 99% of people gain the weight back. No one teaches the animal what to eat and what not to eat. He knows instinctively what to eat. Humans also have the same instinct. The way it works is just eat whatever tastes good and that will be healthy for you and non-fattening. That is why a baby tastes everything. So again whatever tastes good, is good for you. This is why you will spit out spoiled milk.

But wait!!! Man has the technology to create rat poison. It tastes like healthy food (good taste) but kills the rat. So man has done that to you. Note-- any food unaltered by man (uncooked) that tastes good, is good for you. So if you are stranded in the woods, that is how you know what to eat (cooking changes that). So man has created fake fruit. It tastes like fruit that exists in nature but it is terrrible for health, addictive and fattening called sweets.

So it is natural to like real sweets called fruit, like a baby does, but they have fooled you just like the rat. But they do not want to kill you. They want you to become obese so you will buy lots of their foods. This is called GOOD BUSINESS. Learn how to nourish your body thin, instead of starving your body fat.
