Im 23 and over weight. I was 145 thru all of high school and as soon as i got pregnant with my first son my weight went thru the ceiling. I didnt try and lose weight after his birth due to being a "single" parent and not having any time, energy or help. i got married and had another baby and now im looking to lose some pounds. My husband is VERY into thick chicks but im uncomfortable with my body. I used to think I was sexy as hell but now its hard for me to even get undressed to shower let alone have sex with my husband. I have tried starvation diets, atkins, slim fast, weight watchers. i cant stick to diets i just cant do it. I have two small sons which makes it almost impossible to exercise. Someone help me find a balance to lose at least 20 pounds. I have to feel sexy again my sex life is gone, im unhappy and i need help. I eat as healthy as possible. Im so unhappy and depressed with myself altogether that i eat because im bored, upset, angry. I eat just to eat and i cant stop. SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE!
btw i do not to be critisized or mocked. If you plan to lecture me or talk shit dont even bother. im looking for real advice!!!!!!!!!

Losing weight comes down to burning more calories than you take in.

This doesn't mean that you can't work a donut into your meal plan. Depriving yourself of favorite foods can lead to over-eating, so I would work on creating a calorie deficit. Try to eat 500 calories less than the level you maintain at.

Edit: Counting calories is easy. Promise! :) On any packaged food you eat, you will see a a nutrition label on the back. Look for the number of calories and add that to your daily total.

If you are eating something without a nutrition label, such as an apple, just google how many calories it is and you will find an answer right away.

Try to eat about 1500 calories and maybe 1600 if you are doing a little exercise.
