I used pills but as soon as I stopped I had a slice of cake and it was all back again!! I want to keep it off due to my health and I'm trying to loose 45lbs by January! Any suggestions ladies?

Eat right an excersice. This method will keep your metabolism active, it will burn fat, you dont want to lose weight you want to lose fat. You need to eat 5 times a day, hungry or not, and a good work out with weights, and 3 times a week cardio low impact fat burning, 220- your age x 60% so a 20 year old would be 220-20=200x.60=120 beats per minute for your heart rate.
7am breakfast oatmeal or other whole grain avoid corn and wheat.
10am about 4 ounces of protein about 25 grams.
turkey, egg whites fish. no more than 3 hours then have lunch.
1pm protein and green leaf vegetables. about 35 grams if you are weight training.
within 2 hours have a piece of fruit as a snack.
then around 6pm dinner, same as lunch protein and greens.
What is consistant is you are not mixing food groups. Your body produces different enzynes to break down protiens that it does for carbs, greens are neutral. So your constinley bringing
varied nutrition through your body, and not wasting
your hunger on foods that cannot be processed, pasta pototoes and rice.

Eat healthy, control your cravings/appetite and EXERCISE. Believe it or not but even 3 days out of the week of working out can do alot!

i have the same prob!! there is an exercise dvd called yoga booty ballet... it is so much fun! i love it, it makes you feel pretty and fights the pounds off! good luck!

You need to exercise. Join the Y, it is fun and you can take all sorts of classes for free (after you join) and even more for a small fee. like pilates, spinning, water aerobics, etc. My Y even offers belly dancing classes! You can use exercise in combination with pills or diet if you want. Once you get into it, it feels so good. Get an ipod and some cute workout clothes. that will get you motivated.

hi Hun am a big girl too i find drinking water walking the dogs eating 3 meals a day is helping

exercise, diet change, try a better sleep pattern.

To lose weight, a person has to reduce the calorie intake by some amount by modifying their diet. A diet without sufficient nutrients will only increase the appetite of the person trying to lose weight. Since most people combine a diet with an exercise plan, additional nutrients are required for the growth of muscles required to increase the metabolic rate required for long term weight loss.
