What I do know is that if you are truly overweight, you need to consider getting some medical advice before you embark on a plan to lose weight. Please lose weight sensibly and not too quickly, because that may set you up for possible failure or other problems. One to two pounds a week is sensible. Making small changes gradually for those who haven't done this before will make the task much more manageable. Shoot for small, short term goals first, and then your goal is much more attainable.
Try this website if you need some guidance or you are unsure. I have seen some really good advice on this thread, but may not be realistic for some of us.

Good luck to all! |
I just glanced at the link you provided and all I can say is
Wow, I am in shock, it seems that the government and I have similar views on something, who would have ever guessed that.
