Extreme weight loss healthy?
Alright guys, I have a loooooot of weight to lose. I’m currently 5’6, 17, and 230lbs. I’d like to be around 150 lbs within the next year. more if I need, but thats just a general goal. I’m going to start by taking certain things out of my diet and i’m going to start using Wii Fit to start working out 30mins a day every day. I’ve been dieting forever and I just end up getting depressed and starving myself. I was taught really bad eating habbits and exercising habbits and i’m trying really hard to reverse all that. I’m out of high school and will be starting college this fall, but it’ll only be 2 days a week so my stress level shouldn’t be very high. Does this sound like a good plan to anybody else? Any suggestions? Has anybody else done this significant amount of weight? Online support groups? All information will help! Thanks!
Yes it is a good idea. The best way to loose weight is slowly. About 2-3lbs a week. If you loose too much too fast it will all come back and them some. A little at a time keeps it off longer. Their are many support groups on line and in your home town or near by. check it out. Weight Watchers and Jenny Craig are good places to start.
