  • Try cutting out or cutting back on flour and added sugars from your diet.... I wouldn't recommend making drastic cuts but cutting back over time worked for me. Now there are days I don't have any simple carbs, only complex carbs with fruit and vegetables and I feel fine. I'm basically following a looser form of the DASH…

  • Hey I'm 28 and also in the same boat. 5'5" SW172, CW150. Trying to get down to 135 but would be thrilled to get under that. Been a slow process. I also have a large frame so I know I'll never be 120. Currently at a size 4... Anyone in the same journey and in late 20s feel free to add me :-)

  • I tried hydroxycut a few years ago - it made me really sick (like a developed stomach ulcers and it took months for them to go away). It's really not very safe and very hard on your system.

  • I've been reading a book off Amazon called "Secrets of Former Fat Girl..." It's been extremely helpful to me and they talk about the negative comments through out the book. Maybe it would help you and give you some strategies?

  • I've been eating 1200 calories a day for the last month and after doing some research on low calorie yet healthy filling foods it is enough and I haven't been hungry. If you need to eat more than that go on a half hour walk - since you are burning more calories you can then eat a little more and still lose weight. I think…

  • If you aren't a big breakfast person - maybe try one of those meal replacement protein bars? They are easy and you can just buy them at the store... tastes like a granola bar. I'm not a big cereal eater either. My favorite breakfast is 1/2 cup low fat granola with low fat yogurt. So good.
