I know how you feel, setting new goals and new diets or excersize plans after every failed attempt. Its not fun and it distorts your self image. You have to realise that you are beautifull the way you are- but the way you live is not healthy for you. Superficial diets and cutting out carbs or whatever is not what makes beauty- it is healthy cells that make you beautifull. If you don t like excersize then dont use it as a crutch saying I have to excersize to lose weight start eating foods that are filling and healthy- try to eat LESS empty calories but dont cut it out cold turkey. And you know what, when your cells and your body is healthy and happy it will WANT to move- so for now, take the slow easy aproach to make your life healthier, and your weight will follow.
I made a determined effort to get all the sugar out of my diet. I then used meal replacement shakes that I got at the health food store, mostly soy protein, fiber and essential minerals.I started to lose 2-3 lbs a week, it was tough on the weekends because I need to cook for wife and kids.once I got the diet in order, I started to ride my bike again. once I started to ride again, I got up to three 1.5hr rides. a week, (45-60 miles a week) the fat just shed off by itself. I lost 38 lbs in 6 months. I went from 212 to 178.Im up a few now to 183 but I feel great and am looking forward to joining the gym for the winter.

Have you ever had your thyroid checked?? After the birth of my daughter I had put on 80 pounds, yes 80!! I tried absolutely everything to lose weight and it just wouldn t budge. I went to the dr and it turns out I have an underactive thyroid. Now I take medication and the weight has practically melted off. I( eat healthy and walk for about an hour every day as well though.
