What diet would you recommend and what worked best for you?

jenny craig is what my mom used and she lost like 69 pounds in the first 10 months ( she also worked out almost everyday)

You don't need to spend money on a diet. You need to give up pop, junk food, snacks, and just watch what you eat. You need to do 20 minutes of cardio (running, walking, jumping jacks) a day. You need to also do some muscle work outs. Don't waste money when it's this simple.

Actually, you don't have to diet per se if you want to lose weight, the only diet that clearly delivered for me is wu-yi tea, it can be checked out in the resource box below, they have a limited number of free trials remaining, it was highlighted in Fox News and USA Today. I lost twenty pounds, it clearly does produce results!

Hi there, I tried south beach because I was stuck, I had hit a plateau for months and nothing I tried on my own worked. I bought the book and followed it to the letter. The first week I lost 2.5 pounds. Doesnt sound like much but for someone who eats right, workouts hard and wasnt loosing a pound for months this was big news to me. I love it. The first two weeks were tough but now its smooth sailing. Im down 6.4 pounds. Im not down more because of the holidays but this week im back on track and sure to see the scale drop again. Good luck to you.

Yes, Dieting can be made simple its just that companies add marketing and selling techniques for sales. I would stick to basic clean proteins such as chicken, white fish, tuna ect... As for carbs I would stick with 1/2 a cup of oats in the am. then stick with some brownrice for lunch, say 1/2 a cup. After lunch I would go for green veggies or non starchy carbs...

HI, Very basic: It's about knowing what to eat, how much and when to eat. *Eat 5 small meals a day. That's Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner and in between a snack. This speeds up the metabolism, gives you energy and helps you burn fat. *Increase your fiber intake from high fiber cereals, oatmeal, vegetables etc...Fiber helps you feel full, and stabilizes your sugar levels. *Avoid eating excess carbohydrates (energy) when you are less active such as later in the day. At the time eat proteins (chicken, fish, etc..) with a salad or vegetables. *Add good fats to your eating from Olive oil, flax oil, peanut, almonds etc. These type of fat give you energy and help your body burn fat. *Drink plenty of water. *Walk or Exercise. Hope this helps!

I understand what you are going through as I have dealt with sleep apnea all my life. I was obese too and have lost over 60 pounds so far. I have tried so many diets and non of them worked for me because I had to change my thinking. They would work for a while but then I'd get tired of them. What finally is working for me is changing the way I think. See the link in the source box. Check it out and let me know what you think because it is really working for me. I have a few more pounds to go and will finally reach a goal for the first time. I exercise when I want to and only because I like to. Not because I have to.
