After gaining almost 60 lbs. from my last pregnancy, I REALLY need to lose the weight. I am contemplating joining weight watchers, but am not certain it is the best plan for me. I cannot afford ANY diet plan that costs money, but I am desperate. I want to learn to eat more healthy foods and change my lifestyle. I know I could do this on my own without the support of a diet plan, but I need everyone's opinion. Has anyone lost a lot of weight and how?

At the moment, I'm on my own diet, I just picked up a lot of tips from here and there and combined them. I cut out a lot of junk food in my diet, I replaced crisps and coke with fruit/ veg and drank water instead. I also keep a food diary which helps show me what I am eating and where I was going wrong, it's amazing when you look at what you eat over the day, you don't realize at the time that one biscuit here and there adds up. The most important thing for me was exercise!! I started of gradually, I bought a few dvds, which you can buy cheaply on Amazon in their sales, and i also started using my treadmill which was bought and never used!! So far I have lost a stone in the past four or five months. It's also good to lose weight with someone as it helps to motivate you, but once you start exercising and drinking between 1.5 to 2 liters of water a day, you will soon start to see the benefits. And don't be strict, allow yourself treats, once or twice a week, you wont stick to it otherwiseGood Luck!!!!!!

There is a good book out there called the Paleo Diet. Essentially it says eat lean meats (chicken, fish) and fruits and veggies only. It really is simple because if you're eating healthy foods, exercising a little bit a day, then weight loss is inevitable. You don't have to do anything special by eating right, it just takes a lot longer, but its the healthiest way to lose weight

If you're serious about losing weight you MUST try Acai Berry! I first heard about on Oprah, and I ordered a 14-day FREE trial from this site. I've already lost some weight and I've got tons more energy.

Weight watchers probably would not help you much if they do not give you information on how to lose weight effectively. Many people think that losing weight means having to eat only 2 meals and jog 5km everyday. You do not lose weight permanently that way, not to mention the amount of discipline you need to keep up with that routine. The most effective and long lasting weight loss program must include knowing what are the Right Foods to eat at the Right Times of the day. This has been scientifically proven to be one of the most effective weight loss methods as the body needs different food types at different times of the day. Supply exactly what the body needs, and there is no need for the body to store what it does not need as fats.The reason you cannot lose weight by starving yourself (using a low calorie diet) is because your metabolism will detect any major drop in calories and it will then ADJUST ITSELF by burning fewer calories each day.Follow this radical new approach to weight loss now available online and you will be looking at losing 5 - 7lbs or 2 - 3kg per week effectively and PERMANENTLY. That works out to an almost 28lbs or 12kg weight loss in just one month!If you want to find out exactly how you can get started on this weight loss program now, click on the link below.

I lost 50lbs by eating healthy, exercise, and having a support group. Sometimes it can be hard to put it into everyday life when you can get so busy with work, school, family, ect. But eating less and exercising more will show results. For my support group I joined http://www.fit4lifefriends.com It's totally free and it just a bunch of friends trying to loss weight and be healthy.
