This week’s question is as follows:
I just found out 2 years ago that I have Type II and this is why it has been so very slow and difficult for me to lose. The only good news in all this is that it is not impossible for even someone like me to lose weight and change their life.
First off, check out my diet program on the homepage: Judy Weight Loss. Secondly, here are some helpful tips:
- Re-examine the reasons why you want to lose weight. Cut out some pictures from magazines of how you'd like to look, and also break out pictures of how you looked before your weightloss, and stick them on the fridge and food cabinets. It'll remind you of how you don't want to become and where you really want to be at the time you're making a judgement about what foods to eat.
- Wear a pair of jeans that is really tight around your waist. (around the house probably is best
). It'll make you think about your stomach more and motivate you to eat less and work out more.
- Limit the amount of times you eat out per week, or if you eat out, have them bring out a take-home box when they bring out your food so you can spoon out half to take home right away so it's not sitting there on your plate tempting you while you eat.
Hope that helps!
First congratulations on your weight loss. But sadly the battle is never over. It's a constant effort to keep the pounds off. But I can say that I personally just lost 15lbs, simply by not drinking any more soda. So if your still drinking high carb drinks……stop!. You'd be suprised how much you can lose just by doing that.

Reduce food intake and increase exercise. Those are the only options.
