The Dr Phil Diet-it worked great for me, because you see results pretty quickly and it’s healthy food and some what easy to stick to.

just tell her to stick to 1800 calories a day and the weight will fall off since she is so overweight at this point.

You know… maybe it just can’t be done. If she’s eaten many trans fats then theres nothing to do. Trans fats DIE with you. They don’t go away (unless lipo). No matter what you do. Perhaps a few like 30 but no way 100 lb.

focus on eating healthy. follow the four food groups. eat more fish and raw vegetables. cut back on eating crap. if you make a habit of eating a good breakfast every day you won’t be as hungry later. try staying under 2000 cals a day. start excersising safely. any pools near you? jump in the water. can you afford any gym memberships? check them out and start slow and safe. talk with your doc. peace.

Tell her to eat only grilled ***** and rice, both are very very good for you, can have nothing on the rice or chicken besides pepper and lemon. An may have over a salad no dressing, this worked wonders for me, when i had my babies…. lost about 60 pounds in 6 months

Thats the problem with losing weight for people. DISCIPLINE it is NOT something you can do temporarily. It is a life change that most be followed every single day of your life. She needs to only eat lean meat, low fat dairy, fresh fruits and veggies, and whole grains. But even healthy food can make you put on weight if you eat to much of it. It is a simple formula to lose weight. Burn more calories than you consume and your body will need to pull energy from other places such as muscle and fatty tissue. Tell her to get some weight loss books that focus on the psychology of weight loss. GL

dont follow anything.. the easiest way to stick is look at ur calories/portion size

insulin resistance diet, there are 1000’s of items and you get to eat every 2-3hours.

I like the diabetic diet. You have an exact amount of food of each allowed type and you eat six meals a day.
I used it and was never hungry.
The bottom line is that to lose weight, you must reduce your calorie intake. One idea is to not eat anything that your Great Grandmother didn’t eat. So, no potato chips, no soda, no fast food, lots of veggies, lots of salad, lots of fruit. Remember, she didn’t have much meat because she couldn’t afford it, and she didn’t have really good refrigeration.
The toughest part is having will power, which really means, in regards to snacks, “won’t power”.

My teacher said to stick to a healthy diet for life, just eat little portions FREQUENTLY… not starve yourself than eat a lot… that stores fat. This also helps the metabolism digest faster.
If thast does not work, then why not join weight loss programs live Curves, L.A. weight loss or Jenny Craig?

I am also overweight, I also have trouble dieting, I don’t eat allot its just what I eat, a good diet that has been working for me…
breakfast:
1 cup~ of special K cereal only the protein+
1/2 cup~ fat free milk( not skim unless she likes it)
lunch:
1- low calorie pita bread
if she doesn’t like pita try 100% whole wheat bread
4 slices- turkey
NO mayonaise
NO ketchup
any amount- lettuce
2 slice- of tomato
dinner:
6oz - any white fish, or 6oz skinless chicken
80z raw veggies, or 6oz cooked
salad w/light dressing
IF YOU ARE OLD ENOUGH TRY LIPOZENE IT WORKS TO!!!

I don’t have a direct answer for this one but I’ll tell you why your friend quits. She quits because the results are too slow! & she’s dieing for GOOD FOOD! Once she’s over that 2 week diet, it’s only because her weight got stuck on a certain number & it won’t go down any further. The best thing you could do for your friend is join a exercising health spa! Maybe you don’t need it? but as long as your friend goes with you…you will be helping her.
If she doesn’t have the money for that then tell her everything she eats…cut it in 1/2 & save it for later. Start at 2 hours later & finish it…& then start extending the left overs by minutes more. Don’t eat 2 hours before she goes to bed & don’t wake up in the middle of the night & run to the refridgerator.
I’ll tell you one thing though, if she loses that much weight & doesn’t exercise in the process…she will have what is called loose skin. So she really needs to exercise some…even a little would help. Exercise with her!

Be a friend and offer to help her get healthy. Offer to go take a walk w/ her, motivate her to keep to her goals of eating healthy. Call her and say lets go take a walk together. It is easier to exercise w/ a friend and makes the time go faster.
The easiest and healthiest way to lose weight is to take it one step at a time. She didn’t get to 250 lbs overnight. Try one goal (life style change) at a time until that goal becomes a habit them set a new one. One goal could be replace pop w/ water, walk 10 min a day (work up to 30 min of exercise a day on most days of the week), eliminate junk food from snacks, eat 3 healthy meals a day (including BKF) and only 2-3 snacks a day, reduce sugary foods to only one snack a day, reduce portion sizes of food (no one should be super sizing) etc.
Let her know if she fails (eats something she shouldn’t) she hasn’t failed. Not everyone eats healthy all the time. Not everyone exercises like they are supposed to all the time.
Just go back to her goal and see what went wrong, maybe to much restriction to soon. Modify her goal if she needs to and go back to working on her ultimate goal(to get healthy) again.
