Guest guest Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 If any one wants to lose weight, there is a good weight loss web site that is free. It is called Sparkpeople.com and you can find all kinds of help there. I am losing weight and find that if I eat only natural foods, with no additives, I do a lot better. I eat a lot of fruit and home made soups with no salt added. I also take vitamin pills I also found some good pills that have been helping me feel full. They don't have all the gunk in them that some diet pills do and are some kind of fiber and herbs. They are called Zetacap. They just help with will power because you feel full when you take them. You can buy them on the Internet, just type in that name and you get to their web site. I looked at their web site for about 6 months because I am hesitant about taking any pills I find on the Internet, but I haven't had any problems with them. I take less than the recommended amount and they still help. I am not recommending them because we each have to decide for ourselves and I am not an expert, but they have helped me. Also leaving out all the bad stuff I used to eat has helped me a lot. Eat an apple instead of a brownie and you will lose weight. I have lost over 30 pounds so far, but I have a way to go.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 hmmmmm.... very carefully think about surgery. sure in the begining your weight is like gone and the urge to show off your new figure to the world is very rewarding. there are serious consequences with this. my aunt had this done. she has loss her hair, her skin sags (big time), she's most of the time feeling sick, can't eat very much or at all, she just looks and seems depressed inside. so just PLEASE think about it really really hard. , lynita welch <lynita_welch wrote: > > I have high blood pressure and have to be careful about diet pills.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 Lynita and Gina: Loosing weight is not all about diet pills and surgery! What you may feel is the solution (surgery) or diet pills plays havoc with your body and you will wish you had the weight problem rather than the aftermath medical problems those supposed solutions cause! I understand the psychological and medical reasons for wanting and needing to loose weight, however you need to deal with the psychological reasons (I'm not saying you need a shrink!) and attack the medical reasons. The ONLY way you are going to loose weight and maintain it is by changing your lifestyle and your thinking process. Please don't think I am being cruel - I have been on both ends of the stick. I have weighed over 200 pounds --- changed my lifestyle and thinking (your weight does not define WHO YOU are) and later managed a Weight Loss Clinic for five years. I have maintained my weight since then by choosing to change my way of living. Medical problems may hinder you in your decision to loose weight, that is true, however working with a Doctor who believes in integrated medicine can help there. Too often we look for the " quick fix " at the risk of causing serious medical damage to ourselves such as liver damage,heart attacks,stroke,addiction,intestinal problems and more. Either of these options (stomach stapling or diet pills) can cause your death - sometimes immediately -- sometimes from the medical problems that arise from their use. If you are unable to loose weight due to medical problems learn the processes to allow you to be happy with yourself and your weight (self-acceptance,EFT,etc). No-one can cause you to feel inferior except yourself. If a man (or a woman) is going to accept you more because you have lost weight you don't need them in your life anyway. Please - do not have the surgery or take the diet pills. The American Indians have a wonderful way of saying it - listen to your elders - listen to the wisdom of those who have gone before you. Learn. In Love and Caring - Helen , lynita welch <lynita_welch wrote: > > I have high blood pressure and have to be careful about diet pills. Do you have high blood pressure?
