Some general tips for healthy weight loss!Find support from family, friends, a counselor, and/or support group. Sharing your experiences and hearing about other’s while providing and receiving support and encouragement often has a powerful impact when making changes towards a healthy lifestyle. There are many online support groups available these days, too!
Set realistic goals. Aim for a slow, modest weight loss and expect setbacks. Forgive yourself and resolve to start fresh the next day!
Make healthy choices a lifestyle.
Drink lots of water.
Take your time and savor your food. Turn off the television, postpone other distractions, and enjoy the scents and flavors of your food!
Keep a food diary. Use Helpguide’s food diary or create your own! Make sure to shop when you are not hungry. Create a shopping list to stick to and store foods in cabinets or drawers out of your sight.
Dish up smaller servings. At restaurants, eat only half your meal and take the rest home. For more information on selecting healthy choices while dining out, see Helpguide’s Fast Food Nutrition.
Incorporate 30 minutes of physical activity into your day. If 30 minutes a day sounds like a lot for you right now, try breaking it up into 20, 15 or 10 minute sessions. Any amount will provide health benefits. Try some new activities such as:
brisk walking or jogging
bicycling
playing basketball, tennis, racquetball, golf or soccer
swimming
taking a yoga, martial arts, or aerobics class
dancing

Justin,
Just look back at that picture of us with Lauren Talley. We have lost a lot of pounds since then!
What is that old saying, "...thank God I ain't what I once was"
If it makes you feel any better, I don't think your fat!
