Answer 1

I carry a picture of me when I was at my heaviest. I bought smaller and smaller clothes and that was a real rush. then I got rid of the bigger clothes so I had to keep it off or not have anything to wear. I treated myself once in a while after I reached a goal. not with food, but with something I wanted, but didn't relaly need. good luck!

Answer 2

Four months ago I was ur weight exactly and we are the same height. Now I'm 148! I lost weight by consuming between 1200-1550 calories a day and excerising and trying to burn 2000 cal. a week. A really good website that I use, that helps is sparkpeople.com. You add what u weight, how much u want to lose and it will tell you, when you will reach your goal and what to do. It's an amazing website, it really helped be. You can also track how many calories you ate on it........and there are message boards and many ppl to chat with to keep you motivated. For me I look at pictures of ppl I want to look like, like jessica alba and that makes me keep going, because one day I hope to look like her!

Answer 3

I like to think about the weight I've already lost and be proud, and not obsess about how much more I've to lose.

Do something fun for exercise like dancing or whatever you like. I loved going to rock concerts. All that jumping around is great exercise and you don't think of it like that.

Don't weight yourself everyday cos your weight cos up and down with water weight. Pick a day and weight yourself only that day first thing in the morning (after going to the bathroom). You're also more likely to have lost weight after a week so you'll see better results, feel prouder and be happier about continuing your diet.

Answer 4

I've lost 5 kilos in my first week. It's my 10th day and I have included salad with some protein (eg. egg/ lean chicken) as you suggested. After 4 years of trying, the fat is finally coming off. It truly feels like magic!

Get started today!

Answer 5

When I start to see the improvements. When the number on the scale is going down, and when my clothes are fitting better, it is a great motivator to keep going until I reach my goal.

Plus, I feel better when I am eating good and working out. I try not to go on "diets", I just cut out eating things like chips, candy, pop, etc. When you reach your goal you will feel accomplished.

Good luck!

You are in high range obesity, pl.follow these carefully :

When mother Nature has provided us with such a simple and easy treatment to cure diseases and even to avoid them we all must follow the instructions given by her. These Therapies only help Nature to cure us. Let us not ignore Nature in our mad pursuit of science. THIS NATURE'S 'DO IT YOURSELF' ACUPRESSURE THERAPY ITSLEF IS A SCIENCE AND NOT A MATTER OF BELIEF. Try this Therapy sincerely and regularly for at least 15 days and observe its wonderful and amazing result.

Obesity : This is due to :

1. Malfunctioing of Thyroid/Parathyroid gland and late on other endocrine
glands e.g. malfunctioning of Pineal gland leads to retention of water and
excess water in the body and leads to excess fat.

2. Underworking of Sex glands mainly in ladies after delivery of a child.

3. Overeating i.e. taking more calories than required by the body.


C U R E :

Take minimum 3 liters water in a day.

Take Acupessure treatment on all endocrine glands twice daily.

2. During pregnancy and after delivery, take treatment on all the endrocrine
glands. After delivery, increae heat in the body, take the acupressure
treatment.

3. Drink charged gold/silver/copper water daily two glasses reduced from 4
glasses.

4. Drink hot to lukewarm water only during the day and always after meals.

5. In the morning in one glass of hot water add juice of half a lemon and one
tablespooful of honey. Drink it. That will reduec the desire to eat/drink
sweets.

6. Chew food at least 15 minutes

7. Drink 3 to 5 cups of green juice a day adding 1 teaspoonful of health drink
to each cup. This will help to reduce the body very fast WITHOUT ANY SIDE
EFFECTS.

8. Eat plenty of salads adding 100 grams of sprouted cereals like Mung. Also
eat two seasonal fruits + 1 glass of buttermilk.

9. Avoid all food if possible. However, in spite of the above diet, if you
feel very hungry, take preparations of only wheat or only rice. That will
rduce the intake of food. But eat this food only when you are very hungry.

10. Do Pranayam + Ling Mundra + Jogging+Skipping+swimming + Acupressure.



NOTE :

EXCESS WEIGHT :

In the case of females,damage to endocrine glands of Thyroid/Parathyroid is very common. Moreover, their Sex glands are damaged during pregnancy or delivery because of worry. And so when these two endocrine glands do not function properly, these women start putting on weight more around the waist. Because of damage to these two endocrine glands, sometimes even Pineal gland is damaged and so there is more retention of water in the body, which is also one of the reasons for excess weight.

When such patients come, their obese figure obviously shows their problem which can be confirmed by pressing on point nos. 8, 11 to 15 and no. 3. At this time of checking, it is advisable to check other endocrine glands too, so you can locate any further damage, if any. for cure, first it is necessary to treat these two endocrine glands for 15/20 days and only then start dieting and treatment on not only these two endocrine glands but also on the other endocrine glands. I have treated many cases,where the weight loss was from 2/3 kgs to 10 kgs per month. Once the weight has reached normal then ask the patients to continue Acupressure treatment and they will be able to maintan their weight and pleasing figure.
