I wonder if anyone has advice on wieght loss?

Question

About a year ago, I was in a car accident and suffered a few serious injuries, and in turn gained about sixty pounds. I have recovered, but i find that cardio exercise is difficult as i still have problems with both of my ankles.I know that i need exercise to lose this weight and i wonder if anyone has any suggestions. thanks so much.

i do not eat junk food or drink soda. i have discussed this with my dr. and he recommends LAP BAND surgery. I really want to do this without any surgery. My BMI is around 35 . i am 5'8 and now weigh 240 pounds. please help.

Answer 1

Hi, I cant exercise after an operation I had two years ago so I sought some expert advice, if losing some pounds of any description and inches is what you want then I would suggest you use a diet that is all natural and is rich in protein and vitamins. I used a protein based diet with Herbalife after a friend who had lost weight recommended it to me. All the way through you feel great and energized, you also get great coaching and support along the way. The people are very friendly and gave me lots of great advice. I needed to lose 40 pounds and I did so fairly easily. There is no pressure and they will even send you a load of free samples so you can try before you buy. The samples were the thing that initially convinced me that this was the right path to choose. The products really work and you feel great whilst losing weight. You also a get e free complete health consultation with the samples, I think I just paid the postage, but for what I got it was well worth it.
I lost all my weight in less than four months and they have helped me to keep it off. I would definitely recommend using them. The owners will advise you on what to purchase depending on what you want to lose, my sister did this also and lost 76 pounds in less than five months. The website is www.myhealthabc.com. You just leave your details and they call you up, I would suggest that if you aren’t sure or don’t want someone to ring you then go to their main site www.myhealthabcmall.com and you can see all the products and packages. This is what I did before I went to the first site and left my details so they could contact me. You can see with all the products and detail they have, so you know that they mean business. Its nice to have contact with real people who care about you losing weight and improving your health. I know that I will continue to keep the weight off with the help I have received. I hope this helps.

Well, I can only tell you what I did. I lost 95 lbs in 8 months using a plan called Shapeworks. To lose the weight I did no exercises, I know that isnt a smart way to do it, but it worked for me. If I had exercised while doing Shapeworks, I would have lost faster. The cool thing about the Shapeworls plan is that I have kept the weight off and I have no loose skin after losing 95 lbs. Here is where I found it on the internet, www.loseweightnow.com/tfward

Answer 3

I agree with you, BMI=35 is not enough to justify surgery!

You might start with pilates... your muscles will grow stronger and will be able to control your joints and tendons a lot better (experience!). Then you'll be able to swim, use the elliptic machine and the like.

My best wishes!

Answer 4

Simple regular diet, avoid fats.
Go to bed on time
Regularize your activities
Do schedule yourself for at least 45 min normal walk after 1-hour of taking dinner.
Do Pray everyday to GOD in the simple way and style.
Result would be visible in lesss then 30-days.

Answer 5

I have a friend who has weak ankles and a spine problem and she found that the elliptic machine has done wonders for her. Why don't you try it?

Answer 6

i joined the why as i am heavy on my feet and have had operations on my feet.

i like water exercises at the YMCA..also swimming is good and their are machines that let you sit down and exercise..
