Weight gain - don't know how to lose it...can someone suggest something

hi

if you want to lose weight then you have to use up more calories than you eat.

look at your activity levels: are you an active person, always moving around / walking etc or do you have a sedentary lifestyle with a lot of sitting down? can you increase the amount of activity that you do?

also llok at what you eat. you say that you love white rice and curry but how is the curry made? reduce the quantity of oil / ghee that is used? eat a smaller portion? (some people use a smaller bowl/dish to help them eat less).

you are on the way already becasue you have realised that it is not good to gain weight around the middle. how long did you try weightwatchers? why did it not work?

best wishes

Hi Sarah, it is a good thing to decide that you want to shed weight because you are overweight, or putting on. Anyone can go it. It comes with a lot of discipline my dear. Exercises help but dieting is the sure way out. Try not to skip meals so you don't do binge eating. Take healthy breakfast like wheat or oats in the mornings, some vegetables for snack and eat what you love at lunch but in smaller quantity. Do well not to eat 3 hours before you go to bed. You can talk to a dietician too but reducing your fat and carbohydrates will surely help. Discipline is the way to go. Its hard work but if you are able to stay by it, you will shed some weight.

I am struggling with my weight too. I started cooking fresh and healthy home and give up take aways. Hope you are well.
