I have lost 90lbs..have a bunch more to go though.
Five things for me:
1. Count calories - I aim for 1500 a day at this stage
2. Exercise daily - hate it but have to or I don't move down the scales.
3. Eat less meat - less meat and more fruit and veg means my calories stretch much further
4. Aim for slow burning carbs through whole grains, beans, etc - they fill me up for longer and control insulin so I don't get hungry between meals
5. Know this is a slow process and not try to get upset if the weight doesn't drop super fast. This is my new life, not a diet.
