Best way to loose 40 pounds

I need help loosing weight I've gained 40 pounds in 2 and a half months

what happened? Gaining so much weight in 2.5 months means eating 14000 calories over your maintenance every single day. If this is waterweight you should be in hospital yesterday. Have you talked to your doctor? If this really is bodyfat then talking to a therapist might be a good idea. If this was over a much longer period of time then fine. But seriously, I am concerned about what you write, and if true you need to discuss with a doctor.

Ditto to what @yirara said. Welcome to the boards. We want to help you reach your goal, but do have that checked out ASAP.

Hoping you’ll check back and let us know what your doc said.

Let me third that that sort of weight gain in that amount of time needs to be checked out medically.

are you serious? You'd basically have to eat around the clock to gain that much weight in 2 1/2 months, unless like yirara said, it's water weight. Make an appointment with a DR or go to the ER and get checked out.

Ditto - please see a doctor.

I sympathize. I gained 60 pounds in 3 months. Saw the Dr. At least a couple of times a week--small town. Saw him in his office and talked. He had no answer. Said the body sometimes does strange things we don't understand. Said lots of people in my situation lose a lot quickly, but some gain. I'm guessing you experienced something similar. I couldn't lose until I recovered, but lost fairly easily when life got better.
Take care of yourself the best you can, including eating healthy foods.
