How am I EVER gonna lose weight?!


Question:

How am I EVER gonna lose weight?

How am I gonna get down to 110 lbs. if I'm 5'2" & weigh almost 300 lbs.? I'm 23, going on 24. It seems like it would take forever if the only healthy amount of pounds to lose is 1-2/week. I remember when I was taking Tae Kwon Do classes, I was losing a pound a day. But I heard that if you lose weight so fast, you'd be at risk for gall stones. My friend is very slender & athletic, & she said she's gonna help me eat right & exercise, but she suggests I also get a professional personal trainer & get fitness assessment. She said that she doesn't like seeing me be this big. But my psych medications make me eat a lot, & also I eat a lot of "comfort" foods when depressed & I'm depressed all the time. Also, she said that she's gonna exercise with me to motivate me to stay dedicated & not quit. I know how to eat healthy, but certain healthy foods I can't swallow for some reason-I gag on beets, bananas, yogurt, & tomatoes. & healthy food is very expensive for my amount of income. Any diet ideas?


Answers:

I think you should seek a Doctor for this, especially that you are taking Meds. Thats really nice that your friend is there to help because you are going to need it. Its really frustrating doing it alone. There are bariatric Doctors that understand how the body functions and why you are gaining weight. they offer solutions for you. and sometimes its best to seek someone who knows what to do.
