Just starting again

carolwright15

I have been doing a diet with my sister but it always seems like it never works. Now that my doctor has suggested that I start it again with my sister and with my doctors help, just maybe i will get the results that I am looking for.

welcome and good luck!

My number 1 suggestion is to not start off with so many changes and extremes that you set yourself up to fail. , don't try to go to extreme with eating too little and not eating any of the foods you like opting only for what you consider "diet food". again this can set up for binges and failure over time. set a reasonable rate of loss you can maintain and don't feel starving on.

Unless your doctor has a specific plan he is putting you on and is monitoring you of course. Then follow medical advice!

Here are some great posts to read to get you started.
