Not Comfortable in my Skin …

Walking at least 30 minutes every day has really helped me. I also cut back on the carbs. I did try Keto and I found it really easy to stick to and it really worked but I didn't want to eat that much fat so I adjusted it for me. I know it isn't easy and I have fell off the wagon many times but it something you just have to keep working at and find the thing that works best for you. It is not a diet but a lifestyle change so you have to do something that you know you can do long term.

I lost 35 pounds in a year by following Weight Watchers online. Basically, it is watching portions of food. Focusing on vegetables. Keeping treats tiny and occasional. Water and exercise. The key is to be fairly consistent.

I am not overly overweight but have never been able to get rid of much belly fat but I am OK with that. I do watch what I eat and I never overindulge so perhaps with time, If you are determined to lose your belly fat perhaps this link can help,

I started using the MyFitnessPal app. You put in your current weight, your target weight and the rate at which you want to lose weight i.e. 2lbs per week. It tells you how many calories you can eat per day. You then input everything you eat (it has a huge database of foods and also barcode scanner) and what exercise you do and it tracks your net calorie intake. I wasn't particularly overweight but I went from 153lbs to 140lbs in about 3 months using this app.

My sister lost a lot of weight by following Keto diet..

A combination of regular exercise and watching my diet has worked for me. I've lost almost 70 pounds in the past 3 years.

I weigh 125 pounds and so my diet works well. It does take a lot of self-control.

The only solution that always worked for me was to count calories. Fats and sugars have so many calories that you immediately realize that you have to cut on them. My only exercise is walking. Our house is on three floors, I go up and down those stairs dozens of times a day.

I am lucky in that I rarely feel hungry. I started skipping breakfast and just have a light lunch then a larger dinner. I have much smaller serves now too.

@Gita17112016 I am sorry that it is so hard for you. I can only tell you how I finally did it and was not easy. I was fat off and on most of my life. I went on diets created by me, but, gained the weight back. The last time I lost weight it stayed off for about 6 months when I came to live in Israel and then gained it back. I discovered bakeries. I joined Overeaters Anonymous and learned something there one time. It is not a diet club but still did not help me. Finally when I turned about 67 I think it was I started to take the weight off. It is a long journey. I hated being fat and do not want to be fat again. It started in summer when I am not very hungry so lose weight but this time it carried into winter and instead of eating I was not so hungry and still lost weight. I take medication and eating at night does not agree with me so I do not eat much. I eat two meals a day and do not eat in between meals now and eat less than I did before and also in winters too. I can fast and not want to eat and I can look at food and not really be hungry now. It took a long time for me so maybe giving up things little at a time and eat less may help. I shared my journey with you. It is very hard and god luck and I hope you find the best way for you.

I'm overweight by at least 30 pounds. I've got belly fat too but not that prominent. I'm 146 lbs, my heaviest already because I used to way around 120- 128 lbs only. For my height, the ideal weight should be 115- 125 lbs the most. I'm trying my best to eat right and not too much and move, move, move, walk, walk, walk.... Drink lots of water too. I think my sedentary lifestyle has contributed to my weight gain and I've been eating too much plus I'm not getting any younger so my metabolism is slowing down. Let's see if this would help me lose pounds.

Being over weight can have serious health problems like diabetes, joint pains, heart problems, kidney failure and even stroke. Brisk walking daily for about 30 minutes twice a day ( Early in the morning and in the evening) , use of staircase to climb at office, home or malls instead of the escalator or elevator and cycling are all forms of exercises which doesn't require any special training like a gym or aerobics. Cutting down on deep fried foods having lots of carbs, salt , sugar, fat and replacing them with fruit juice, fresh salad, cooked green vegetables will help in reducing weight and keep us healthy.

I agree with counting calories and low impact exercise. I studied fitness for a while and would be happy to message you with some pointers. You need to track every calorie going in and out. This is where we find why weight is refusing to shift. I have always struggles with my weight. So I can definitely empathize with you.
