you get yourself into the mindset of losing weight by asking yourself the question...

Why do you want to lose weight?

And get to the real reasons, the honest ones, whatevere those reasons might be -you want to wear sexy lingerie, you want to run a marathon, you want to be able to touch your toes and do a cartwheel... Find your reason.. and hold on to it... and remind yourself every day.

Next -dump the diet mindset otherwise in 6 months time you wll be back wehre you were... Go for a lifestyle change... Work with reasonable calories... and moderate exercise and work with one change at a time and pace yourself.. you wl get to where you want to be.

Now -read the stickied threads around the forum - especially nutrition and on topic and exercise for some sensible approaches to get you starteed

Maleficent is right. You have to change you attitude about this to succeed. I wish you the best of luck!
