I am waaay too overweight, but I can't seem to get it off. I've tried counting calories combined with exercise, and I had to get down to 900 calories a day to lose weight, and even then it was less than a pound every two weeks.
The only thing that has every worked for me is the South Beach diet, and it worked really well. The only problem is that I kept getting really sick on it. I was dizzy, lightheaded, and nervous all the time, and I kept throwing up and having diarrhea.
I went to my doctor, but he doesn't believe me. He says that it's not possible for me to have such a hard time losing weight.
So here's my question. Can anyone tell me any medical reason that I might be having trouble losing weight? I'd like to go to the doctor with some suggestions, because maybe he's missed something. Also, can anyone suggest why I might've gotten so sick on South Beach?
And finally, has anyone had any realy success with any other diet that I might try? I don't mind dieting or exercising, so I'm open to anything that works!
Thanks in advance! (link)

well did they check for hypothyroidism? that is a major thing to check for when a person has a great weight gain or cant get the weight off dispite every attempt. i lost alot of weight 80 lbs on hydroycut and metabolife but they arent healthy for you but they do work.i would recommend a physical exam before taking any of them and before any extreme diet. but yeah get your thyroid checked. a person with a slow thyroid sometimes appears puffy in the face and feels tired all the time and can gain weight rapidly. they will just put you on a lil pill to regulate it and if you do have a thyroid problem they will get it back to normal and you will rapidly loose weight. google hypothyroidism symptoms
