Hope everyone is doing well! I am going to give you the best possible advice on how to lose weight. This is basically what I learned from my experience:
First thing you gotta do is look at yourself in the mirror and wake up. That is what I did and I cried because I realized how overweight I was. This prompted me to do something about it because I don't want to lose my life (I used to have heart problems). After I realized the true danger of being overweight, I developed a plan on what to eat and what not to eat. I spent countless hours researching healthy foods and you should too. Also, download the MyFitnessPal app because it will tell you exactly how many calories you need to eat a day to lose weight. Exercise helps tremendously too. It's really all in how many calories you consume that determines how much weight you lose. I used to eat well over 4000 calories a day, now I eat 1500. Working out even just 20 minutes a day helped me take control of my temptations. The secret to losing weight is that there is no secret. You just have to make sure you eat the right amount of calories and to exercise. Consistency is key to success. If you fail, its okay! I failed many times while I was losing the 40lbs. Do not let 1 failure discourage you, or convince you that it is hopeless.
As far as general tips go, make sure to stop eating sugary foods, greasy foods, sodas, and overall just unhealthy food. Instead, eat protein rich foods, like grilled chicken, fish, etc. Vegetables are the best foods you can eat because they are low in calories and rich with vitamins. You should also start eating more fiber rich foods like beans for example. You can still eat sandwiches just be mindful of what you put in them. Drink LOTS of water, this will help you stay full and it is also good bloating, which is not good.
Now I cant stress this enough.. DONT BEAT YOURSELF UP FOR MAKING A MISTAKE. We all have a bad tendency to make mistakes, thus we convince ourselves that we might as well give up entirely. You do not have to be perfect to lose weight, just keep trying and be honest with yourself. If you cant do that, you will not lose the weight.
Just count your calories, eat REAL food, exercise at least 3 times a week, drink plenty of water before and after a meal, don't give up entirely if you make a mistake, and be consistent. If you do these things, I promise you will lose the weight.
Download the Myfitnesspal app and download the Calory app so you keep track of your calories.
“Suffer the pain of discipline, or suffer the pain of regret. The choice is yours to make.”
I hope this information is useful. Keep on being you!!!
