See a dietician or nutritionist and work out a diet/work out plan.

There is a possibility you have hypothyroidism if you're morbidly obese and simply cannot lose weight (like 300+lb).

No grains or sugars or starches or processed shit. Generally under 75-100g of carbs in a day is considered low carb. Keto is hard mode but in my personal experience by far the most effective.

Eat vegetables (green ones, mostly - not all vegetables are low carb), meat, dairy if it agrees with you, nuts, eggs... There's a lot of information out there. However, it is frustrating at times, and requires a pretty devoted individual. It's got its pros and cons but yeah, check it out.

Go on a walk everyday then bump up to a run. Eat less, whether you need to count calories or bump down from 8 to 3 meals a day.

No it's not it's physically impossible. 120 to 165 lbs is a 45 pound difference. If you honestly think 40 of those pounds were pure muscle that you have absolutely no concept of the human body and lack common sense. Most of that gain was fat, water weight, and probably bone from height.

You can gain at most a few pounds of muscle in a year, by non conservative estimates.

don't drink soda, unless you drink it occasionally as a treat/desert.

salad is good, just watch the dressing, croutons, cheese, etc. as they can add up the calories quickly.

plain baked potato or with a little butter/sour cream is probably better than fries, but realistically, if you want to lose weight you shouldn't be eating fast food enough for it to matters.

again, salad is good, just watch the additional ingredients. get dressing on the side and add a small amount to your salad yourself.

not eating potato chips and ice cream is good, a chocolate bar every other day not so much. you can still eat these foods, but you need to moderate them. a chocolate bar can last me 3 days easily.

a splash of cream or milk in your coffee isn't a huge deal. don't load it up with sugar.

brown bread/whole grain breads are good. try to get a dense sourdough bread. you can put butter on your bread, and go easy on the jam. again, butter isn't bad for you, but it's easy to go overboard with it. you're not making an open-faced butter sandwich, just spread a thin amount on the bread to moisten it.

DRINK WATER. water is good for you and most people are dehydrated. DO NOT make the bulk of your diet with premade foods. you need fresh meat, vegetables, fruits. if you get sugar cravings, make your own desserts. the work put in to making your own desserts will make you not always have as much to eat. a better option is to buy mature, colored fruit and let it ripen until it's very soft.

I know this sounds retarded, but is there anything any of you here tell yourselves to keep from overeating or binging on something unhealthy?
I'm a recovering food addict that's made some pretty steep lifestyle changes over the last six months and underwent bariatric surgery within the past month.

I've been holding up alright on my physician's diet (which doesn't allow me to eat over 1000 calories a day) but I would say the majority of my thoughts are stuck on thinking about food. Hell, I'm even on ck.
I'm just plagued with thoughts about eating food. Just today I took a nap and had a dream that I had went to a McDonalds and bought six of some sort of non-existant steak wraps with avocado and hot sauce. I woke up in a panic thinking I had ruined my diet, my stomach even felt like it was full-up in the dream.
These dreams have been recurring.

I'm not sure if I should legitimately get therapy or if there's something I can tell myself to brainwash the thoughts away.

This and Hydroxycut, it's completely safe unless you have a heart condition combined with some form of exercise once a day, going for a walk, playing with the dog, or just practicing your ninja skills in front of the bathroom in your mirror. the pounds will melt away, you'll have reduced apetite, better focus, and more energy. there's other brands out they are but it's mostly just caffeine.

OP I will admit that in the end there's a slight difference in calroies burned do to genetics and the like. I have seen it first hand myself. But that's not really an excuse anyways. Other than that the guys here are all right. You have to make a lifestyle change and you have to stick to until that becomes the new normal.

What did for me was joining the Army. Don't know what's going to work for you. I do know however that you're going to need to excercise. Walking and swimming are great ways to easy yourself into things as both are low impact and easy on the joints. Also, foooood. Explore low calorie options and go easy on carbs. A good low calorie variety of foods that you find palatable also helps.

they should give up diet soda, that shit is awful for you. there's no reason to ever eat/drink anything diet or with artificial sweetener in it... as for bread, giving up white bread is good (plus a lot of store bought breads have high fructose corn syrup)... chocolate bars don't need to be given up completely but there's no reason to eat an entire bar, and there's no reason to eat a chocolate bar that's full of ingredients you can't pronounce.

eating food with simple ingredients (and making most of your food yourself) makes it much easier to stay healthy and be at a proper weight.

there's no reason to take shit like hydroxycut, but yeah exercise is good and playing with dogs is actually a really good workout (i run around the house with the dogs all the time/jump from couch to couch with them when i'm bored.) and that in addition to walking or running + whatever else you enjoy is always good.

the caffeine thing does work, but it's better to have it in the form of green tea or coffee (which are both better for you anyway) than anything else... plus warm drinks tend to be filling.

read my words
doesn't matter what you eat, just eat less calories than you spend each day.
therefore your body will have to use your FAT in order to live. that's how things work. you can eat whatever you want, but remember to keep low the calories.

note: you should also find something to distract you, stop thinking about food. this works for everything, even if you are hungry.
also, diets are "good" beacause they keep you healthy with low calories AND, more improtant, they keep you full. they do not aim to keep you away from chocolates, ice cream, etc.

Nice citation for your broscience. Fat is broken down to glucose first, then excess glucose is stored as fat by the liver. Carbs require far less processing by the body to get to glucose.

You really obviously don't know about this. Do you think your body just takes pig fat cells you eat and says "oh, that'll do!" and sticks them on your ass or something?

> but when was there ever a time when the American diet was centered around fruits and vegetables and rice with no added fat from butter or cooking oil or whatever else?

That's not what the low fat trend did, and you're confusing the issue. It did replace fats with simple carbs, and obesity did shoot through the roof. Carbs have calories as well, and often don't satiate.

Fiber does satiate, which is why a diet based on whole grains and fruit and veg will have less calories. Shoving white bread in your mouth is going to make fat though, regardless of if there is fat in the bread or not.

I know OP is probably long gone. But from my own experience, you have to be honest with how you're eating. Keep a food diary of everything you eat and the calorie count. Also pay attention to how much physical activity you get. I'm willing to bet you're not as active as you think and you're eating a lot more than you think. It may seem like you're hard-dieting because you're coming down from eating like a cow. A choclolate bar every other day is not a diet. And if you're doing that kind of shit, surely you don't get a baked potato every time you eat out. You probably smother it in butter/salt/sour cream too. And salads from fast food places usually aren't much better than the rest of their food. Caesar salad isn't healthy. It's got croutons and a fattening dressing and cheese. Cheese isn't bad on its own, but you have to watch that shit. You need to cut down on your breads period, not just subbing wheat for white. Use 2% milk. Stop eating out.

And it's going to take longer than 6months. A pound a week is 52 pounds a year. Double that, and you're doing good. You can lose a shitload more if you work hard. But at the very least shoot for a pound a weak. If you're not losing that much or you're maintaining weight, you either need to cut your food or increase physical activity.

>Fat is broken down to glucose first

This can only happen when your diet is void of carbohydrates completely and your body has to work overtime converting fat into glucose to make up for not having an actual energy source. Carbohydrates naturally break down into glucose every time, then are stored in the gloycen stores, with excess carbs being burned off as heat (facultative dietary thermogenesis)

>Do you think your body just takes pig fat cells you eat and says "oh, that'll do!" and sticks them on your ass or something?

We can SEE different fats in fat tissue. People eating a lot of trans fats carry trans fats on their body. People who eat omega-3 fats have omega-3 fats in their fatty tissue. You put on the fat you eat, that's fat's main purpose, to store itself for future energy use if you're starving

>That's not what the low fat trend did, and you're confusing the issue.

No no, don't back out of it now. The American diet was never low-fat. Adding more carbs into a fatty diet isn't going to give results obviously, as the only way for fat to not pile up on you is to starve yourself so you don't get the calories you need and the fat has to go to work immediately. People on a high-carb, low-fat, low-protein diet eat every carbohydrate they see and don't gain a pound. Look up fruitarianism

No. Extremely wrong. Your body is not storing olive oil in your fat cells, which is what you seem to think happens.

Your body does store energy in fat. Energy is passed in the body from glucose, which comes from ANY caloric source.

>Look up fruitarianism

You're a one-man shit science machine!

People eating only fruit have a very very hard time gaining weight due to the high fiber content of whole fruit. Whole fruit isn't calorie dense. Fruit juices are.

I say misunderstanding because you're saying 'carbs' and equating simple carbs with whole grains. Which, while they contain carbs and should be used sparingly during weight loss, have much less effect of insulin than simple carbs.

In other words, fat has nothing to do with it. The idea that excess calories from a magic source are burned off automatically is snake oil.

1500 calories plus 2 hours of walking a day

even though its only 1500 calories, try to eat less carbs/starchy stuff; for your dinner, try to fill up more on meat and veg instead of rice/pasta/bread etc.

If you're going to drink soda, even diet soda, don't drink it like its water. just have a glass of it with your dinner. otherwise drink water or tea

the consistent exercise is very important though. some will tell you to lift/do cardio/run etc, but personally I find the longevity of a walk helps keep your mind off eating (not that theres anything wrong with the others)

Sounds like a possible troll (I don't come here as often as I used to, so I'm not up-to-date on copypasta.) However, I have met people who are actually like this, so here's the breakdown.

>Caesar Salad at Olive Garden = 610 calories (40 g fat)
>Consuming fast food salads (I'm going to guess with ranch or Caesar)
>Eating at Wendy's at all
And I'm going to also assume you're not exercising. Because otherwise, there would be some difference.

Avoid dairy-based dressings, along with dressings high in sugar. If fact, I'd say make your own salads and your own vinaigrette.
Fast food (especially Wendy's) is full of fat and sugar. Avoid it. On the go? Get some portable food. Bananas, baby carrots, and milk cartons, oh fuckin' MY.

Getting brown bread, while sometimes better for you (depends on the brand, sometimes it's just as bad), is not going to help you lose weight. Best to just cut down on bread.

Run, guy. Lift shit. Do some pushups, squats, etc. MOVE, NIGGA. You need to exert yourself at least 30 minutes a day (no, a light stroll through the park does not count.) As you get more into moving in general, come up with a more structured and detailed exercise routine. If you need help, there's tons of info online, and you can usually contact your local gym for a consultation.

Don't use your family as a crutch. In fact, they're probably crutchin', too. To be of a larger build can be attributed to genetics. Being a fat ass cannot. Judging by the list, your family's diet sucks... you'll need to fight how you've been eating your whole life.

You do all of this daily, and you don't drop at all, then you need to contact your doctor and the press, because that is AMAZING (in a bad way.)

Losing weight is 1% knowing what to do and 99% discipline/commitment/having a reason to do so.

You dont have to count calories.. its easy to judge when you are eating enough to loose weight, youll be hungry about 1/3 of the day.

Eat simple whole foods and nothing else. Fruits, vegies, rice, beans.. Go easy on meats/dairy/eggs and nuts.. i mean really easy, like cutting it out altogether..

With this, you dont even have to exercise, you could be stagnant, and youll loose weight.. you just have to stick to it. Also wanting to loose weight for a goal can be counter productive, its more of a lifestyle change with lots of discipline and strictness and you get used to it and enjoy new things instead of food.

If you have any unhealthy habits like drinking or smoking stop them.. youll be amazed at what happens to your body when you go puritanical and strict and change in that way over time.. pounds shed off like butter.

You dont even have to exercise.. sometimes it can be disappointing for someone with bad health and theyll say fuck it im just going back.. they go through this for years... start slow and give it lots of time and patience. You have to develope new kinds of enjoyment that dont come from eating.

If youre somebody that has been unhealthy for a long time or really fat you are going to have to do this before becoming active.. Its gonna take some time before lots of people can start jogging or else theyll be misled and let down.. youll hit a brick wall.. these people dont tell you this because they dont care. You gotta lean into things slowly.

You are in poor shape, your body has to heal first and become healthy. Thats where your diet comes in.

also the people that talk about vegetarianism and have a tim taylor attitude are idiots.. i wouldnt want this idiocy in charge of my fitness either.. gotta be smarter than that.. if you actually believe that then you are truly stupid and probably believe the earth is flat.. vegetarian is healthy as shit.. you dont have to do it all your life.. eggs and beans are currently the cheapest source of good whole protien since tuna is fucked now.

Im pretty sure most people have read basic instructions or statistics about weight loss, fitness, health, vitamins etc.. but dont actually have really good relationship with health.. lots of people torture themselves for a goal (most).. that isnt healthy, youre just following instructions for a goal that will go away because you dont actually enjoy what youre doing.

Ive been a health nut for years and also a nut on enjoying life.

These people that just say calories taken in must be less than energy energy output and thats all there is to it are missing ALOT of information about health and fitness and practicality. Health is only easy to put into numbers like that if youre a beginner reading simple instructions. I always cringe when i hear the common kinds of info posted on the net and its always so mechanical.. as if thats all there is too it, just calories. NOPE.. not even close. There is nutrients, vitamins, minerals, certain kinds of fat, sugars, chemicals, salt, fiber, how processed a grain is.. thats just science.. There is also practicality.. you literally couldnt eat nothing but kale, it you take to long, if you juice certain things you wont be able to stomach them.. literally.. you can put things on paper that dont work IRL.. statistics mean little. You can eat something that is 1000 calories and the size of a golf ball and feel hungry all the time because your stomach isnt full and your brain isnt receiving stimulation becuz of that thinks its hungry.. Its common sense not just #s.
There is also exercising facts that ppl dont mention because of ego.. You have to exercise in a certain way or else youll burn yourself out and throw your energy off balance muscles alone dont = health.. you have to ease into things for optimal health short term and long term.. lots of egotism exists in the world, its always misleading.. i wouldnt just listen to an egotistical meathead without questioning everything.

Start exercising you fat fuck good god why are you so stupid? Just fucking exercise. Join a gym, walk in the park, start dancing, anything to get your lardass moving you fuckshit. If that doesn't work just start smoking at least a pack of cigarettes a day every day.

Diet soda is as bad as regular soda
Fast food salad has very little nutritional value
Potatoes are carb heaven
Dressing will make your salad more fatty than a burger
Bread is real bad for carbs, limit it if you are looking to revitalize your metabolism
WHY ARE YOU JUST EATING STRAIGHT UP BREAD

Also eat more vegetables and take a walk or jog.

I used to be obese and when I say obese I mean really obese. Like the kind of obese people laugh at and say shit like "Oh my god why are you outside? You're a disgrace to society." and throw empty candy bar wrappers at me while saying "Lick it fatty. Lick that wrapper."

I went vegetarian with a very low carb intake, drinking only water and walking for a hour every day. Now I weigh 167lbs at a height of 5'6.

Read the sticky.
Lift heavy shit.
Count your calories.

Google Cron-O-Meter for calorie counting.
Look up Harsh's Worksheet.
Do what this picture says.

Do those three things 100%, no excuses, all the way, and I guarantee you'll get results barring you being some freak of nature.

AND DON'T CHEAT WHEN YOU COUNT CALORIES YOU DICK HEAD. There's one study in particular that tested severely obese people trying to lose weight, and tried to see if they had any actual genetic/metabolic problems, or what might be keeping them obese when they're dieting and exercising.

3 to 4% actually had some special issue. the other 97% consistently under-reported their food intake and over-reported their exercise. Don't lie to yourself otherwise you're just a pathetic sack of shit that doesn't deserve to be fit.

What the fuck is "brown bread"? Is it rye? 100% whole wheat? Pumpernickel?

Are you stupid?

Or do none of it and just count calories, because you don't actually care about being "fit" and just want to be thin.

I lost 37lbs without changing my diet. I was 187 at 5 11''. I had to exercise a lot to lose the weight. Weight loss is not rapid, it will take time. My weight loss took about a year and was gradual. If you are serious about losing weight then you should go talk to a nutritionist who can help you design a healthy diet. Don't do any of this weight watchers bullshit because YOU DON'T NEED IT. Weightless is 90% exercise and its going to suck dick trying to lose weight, but it can be done. Get a gym membership and just start walking on a treadmill, for at least an hour, every day if you can, or even around where you live. Muscle burns more calories than fat, so putting on a little more muscle will help increase the amount of calories you burn without exercise and. SO, WHEN YOU WAKE UP DO AS MANY PUSHUPS AS YOU CAN UNTIL YOUR MUSCLES FAIL. DO NOT STOP WHEN THE ACHE ONLY WHEN THEY GIVE OUT ON YOU! Do The same thing with crunches and squats. Never, NEVER weigh yourself, it will only discourage you. Good luck up. it will suck and it will take time, but it can be done. Also, don't eat anymore fast food or soda, just drink water.

One will lose fat faster if they lift weights.
