Hi Sally – There are a few posts here specifically on helping you to loose weight. The main place to start is to think of changing your diet to healthy, wholesome foods. Then the weight takes care of itself to a certain extent. Of course, your diet can be great and you can still have a few extra pounds. (I am proof of that!) But you will be healthier than if you try the latest fad diet and lose a few pounds. Weight, up to a certain point at least, is only a small part of the health equation.

One thing that has worked well for me is to look at white carbohydrates as bad for you. Cut out white bread, regular pasta, white rice, etc. And use whole grain products. This alone will not only help you lose weight, but is much healthier and tastes better.

I've really struggled to lose weight over the past year or so! I've tried the Special K Diet but it just wasn't for me! I've previously tried cutting out meat and it worked for me I just replaced it with fish which is prefer anyway.

I’ve started on a routine where I exercise during the 6′o clock news. Nothing too strenuous, just some light repetitions with (believe it or not) soup cans. I’ve found that this is beneficial as I haven’t really altered my routine of watching the news but am making better use of my time by exercising while I do it. I’ve also put myself into the habit of walking to the store which is about a quarter mile away instead of driving when I only need to purchase a few items. I’m getting exercise and the changes were pretty easy to make.

I would think that going meatless on Tuesday and Thursday would be a good way to start. Then on days when you do eat meat, watch the portion size and go for something organic or humanely raised. Grass fed, hormone free beef or organic free range chicken come to mind.

I would also go easy on the Special K. A varied, healthy diet is your best choice. Also, only eating small portions of cereal all day until dinner would prompt me to over eat at dinner.
