Answers:
It really helps if you don't think of it in terms of, "I have to lose 50 pounds!." I lost 85 pounds five years ago and I had to do it five pounds at a time or it became too overwhelming and depressing!. So, my first suggestion is to lose weight in 5-pound increments!.
Secondly, please remember that things look bleak now, but they'll look better once you're happier with yourself, so try to focus on what you need to do to make yourself happier!.
My best suggestion is that you spend the next year eating healthy!. There's no reason to do anything super drastic and complicated!. The year is going to pass by regardless, right!? The only difference is what you do with the year and how you look and feel once it's over!.
Start by learning to eat healthy!. This page can help:
http://www!.easy-weightloss-tips!.com/eat-!.!.!.
Keep a food and exercise log!. Research shows that people who keep these logs stay on their diets longer and lose twice as much weight as those who don't use them!. It really helps you be aware of what you're eating!. You can print them out for free on the page above!.
So, do that at first!. Make healthier choices!. Make a new change each week (but keep the ones from the week before)!. For example, week one give up fast food!. Week 2, give up fast food and snacking after dinner!. Week 3, do those two things plus drink lots of water!. Week 4, give up fried foods!. Week 5, add 30 minutes of walking each day!. Week 6, start eating half portions!. You get the idea!.!.!.
Never weigh more than once a week!. Weigh the same day each week at the same approx!. time, wearing the same thing!. Ideally, it would be first thing in the morning before getting dressed--no more than once a week!. Your body has too many natural fluctuations to weigh every day--it will get too frustrating!.
If you need some motivational inspiration, the same site has about 4-5 pages of motivational ideas!. Basically, you need to wake up each day and remind yourself why you want this so badly!. It needs to be always in the forefront of your mind so that you don't rationalize being bad on a whim!.
When you're ready, the biggest component to fast weight loss is going to be your workout!. You will want to make sure you do a good cardio workout every day for weight loss (3 times a week is sufficient to maintain health)!. Activities that use the large leg muscles burn the most calories!. These activities also tone the lower body quite effectively!. Think in terms of
power walking, jogging, biking, skating, swimming laps, jumping rope, dancing, racquetball, and jumping jacks!. To make sure that you're burning fat, you need to be sweating and huffing and puffing!. In addition, do some good stretches and some strength training!.

You can do this!. You won't believe how much happier you'll be once you're happy with your appearance!. Your whole mood will be "lighter" and more carefree! I promise! Good luck to you!

First start off slow, contrary to popular belief, if you are 50 lbs or more over weight, the last thing you want to do is a long run, unless of course, you want to risk several torn or pulled muscles, or damaged ligaments!. Start off slow, swim, bike, walk (yes walk, a mile in 20 minutes if you can, as far as you can if not do a mile)!. Keep at it, 4-5 days a week if you can do it without pain)!.
Work up a new diet plan for yourself, 5-6 small meals throughout containing lean protein, complex carbs, and good fats!. Don't under-eat, your body will hold onto fat trying to "save itself"!.
When you are ready, start lifting weights, dumbbells work wonders and as weights go, inexpensive!. Also see if the school you go to has a weight room you can use in "off hours"!. I'm not suggesting that you become a gym rat, but putting a little muscle on your bones will work wonders for deemphasizing whatever fat you have left!.
Well, thats all I've got --- Good luck, and I wish you every success!Www@Answer-Health@Com

There is no easy way to lose 50 pounds especially if you've never been into fitness!. At a healthy rate, it would take 6-12 months to drop if off with getting saggy skin or putting it back on!.
