Q: Proven ways for weight loss

Hi everyone, I have been really obsessed with my weight problem. I am a 33 year old female and have gained 90lbs which makes the count to 210. I recently took out some of my summer clothes and they don’t fit me anymore!!! This is a real tragedy for me. How can I not wear the ones I adore...moreover the new look is getting me mad (with the comments from my friends). I know quite a few ways to start losing weight…….but I don’t really feel that, with so many people failing using these methods that I will make it through. Does anyone know a proven way to reduce the weight?

Please help me…..this is killing me!!!

I lost 2 lbs in 2 days just by using common sense. Low carb, no satruated fats itc. No read meat. Skin your chicken. Drink plenty of drinks with antioxidents in them. Also, drinks drinks with no suger but, a suger subtitute. The above poster is right. You can burn off fat. But you can not burn off carbs.

Just remember that low (zero) carb diets are not a long term solution. To MAINTAIN weight loss you need to have a lifestyle change where you learn to eat a balanced diet with controlled portion size and pair that with exercise. If you don't have that change then the second you go off your diet you will gain all your weight back. Of course you can just go back on and lose it again but yo-yo dieting isn't healthy.

CarolDiane, congrats on your progress! Very Happy

I definitely agree with above posts that lifestyle modification should be primary approach. But a very interesting news release from the Endocrine society concerning the ingredient Resveratrol. Its basically the main component found in red wine that has shown to have cardiovascular benefit,now has also shown help with weight loss. Below is a link to the press conference.

I believe there are several manufacturers of the product. Hope this helps.
