working out/losing weight
I have been overweight my whole life. Back in high school I dropped 40 pounds. I gained it all back and then some. I have been trying to watch what i eat but with working crazy shifts its hard. I also have been working out to turbo jam, but to me it gets boring east. I thought about joining a gym, I did in the past and didnt feel it was working, but then again it was too big of a gym and i just got on the ellipitical. I would like to lose 50 pounds atleast before summer. I also have a problem with being hungry a lot and didnt know if i should check into a appetite suppresser?

Dear working out/losing weight,
Your story is reminiscent of mine. I was a whopping 415 pounds after giving birth to my first child 12 years ago. I too had a 'plump' childhood.
Throughout my life I have tried to change my diet in order to lose wieght. Only one worked.
I almost died finding it too, so I know it works to cure diabetes, weight problems, bad body odor, insomnia, restless leg syndrome, heartburn, acid reflux, and a slew of other health problems.
However, the information I give you is not meant to cure or claim to cure. I just said it cured my problems.
This diet will bring you to your ideal body wieght without exercise, as long as you stick to it with strict adhereance.
Here is a link to help you figure out what foods are medicine for your blood type and what foods will kill your blood type.

In a nutshell, all foods, organic, natural, and GMO foods have a basic DNA structure. You also have a basic DNA structure. IN each DNA structure exists lectins. When two lectins get together, they react.
If they are good for each other the body maintains a healthy metabolism, immune system, and functions at its best. When the two structures are incompatible, they kill one another.
For example: When you consume a food that has a lectin structure not compatible with yours, your body spends the next 12 to 18 hours being attacked and attacking back. The effects include water retention, slow metabolism, and inhibited insulin production.
Look at the main diet in this nation and others.
How many unhealthy foods are labeled healthy, like tomatoes, corn, and chicken?
The main foods in my house were corn, chicken, and tomatoes. I was fat at 8 yeas old.
My research shows me that I was being killed from the inside out all my childhood and early adulthood. Millions are being led to believe that these and other foods are healthy.
The information put out by experts working on behalf of Corporations or Government organizations is often the opposite of the truth. The United States has the highest death rate from diabetes, obesity, heart disease, and cancer.
Start your search with this link. I have nothing to gain from you visiting it, so save it on your browser bar and consult it often. I take mine to stor with me when I shop for foods.
Good Luck. Call on me if you need. I also do tarot readings and advice from a higher wisdom.
Be safe, take care.
Sincerely,

You want to lose 50 lbs in the next 2-3 months? Have you considered cutting off a limb? ;)
Unless you weigh 400+ lbs, that just isn't a healthy option if you want to keep the weight off.
Losing weight is a matter of calories in, calories out. If you eat less than you burn doing all of your daily activities (breathing, moving, exercising) you will lose weight. However, if you eat too little, you will stop losing weight as your body decides to take a death grip on whatever calories you're consuming and slows its processes so you don't die. I suggest that people use a website like SparkPeople or MyFitnessPal (both are free - I use MFP) to help set goals and track food and exercise.
If you're hungry a lot, it's probably the food you're eating rather than how much. If you find yourself getting hungry, eat a snack made up of a carb and a protein (like apple slices and peanut butter or a piece of cheese). The carbs will give you a boost of instant energy, and the protein will give you long-lasting energy and keep you full longer. Foods that are high in fibre, like raw veggies, fruit or whole grains, keep you full for a long time too.
Find an exercise you like and can keep doing. If it's just walking, that's fine. If it's joining a dance class, or a yoga class, or doing random workout tapes at home, go for it. If you don't like it, you won't keep it up.
Lastly, you have to recognize that this is a forever lifestyle change, not a diet. You can't live on celery and tuna for 4 months, lose 40 lbs and then start mowing down nachos and beer and expect to stay the same weight. You have to choose healthy foods and stay within reasonable limits in order to keep the weight off. You might be able to lose 50 lbs by the summer, if you were to stop eating, exercise like crazy and be miserable. I can guarantee you that as soon as you went off your 'diet', you would gain back all the weight and more. It's all about being able to maintain your choices.
