Best way to lose weight
« on: June 04, 2020, 11:59:57 AM »
Does anyone have any tips for me to lose 90 pounds? I am not obese. But, I am very overweight. I am 5"11 250 pounds. Does anyone on here have any advice on losing weight? I also have Plaque Psoriasis and it messes up my insulin. I don't have diabetes. But, I am at risk for that later in life including Arthritis. What should I do? God bless.

I lost a lot of weight by eating only dinner every day for a few months.

Keto diet and exercise. YouTube has tons of videos on it and people who have lost like 300 lbs. The key is exercise, without it, the body eventually adjusts to the new food intake and the fast weight losses come to a halt.

What Matto describes is called "intermittent fasting" and if you mix it with exercise and Keto, you'll get results fast!

This is a really good method.  For many people, they need to work up to it.  Start with eating 3 meals a day, no snacks, 12 hours between end of supper and beginning of next day breakfast.  Keep increasing the amount of time with no food.  Get down to 2 meals a day in a 6-8 hour window.  Then get down to one meal a day.  This helps to lose weight and stabilize insulin.

Avoid processed food, especially carbohydrates and "vegetable" oils.
Eat a minimum of 30 grams of protein at every meal.

Walk for one hour every day - all at once or several times that add up to it.
Do some form of weight training (lifting or body weight) two or three times a week.

Fruit is not as healthy as most people think.  Fructose, the form of sugar in fruit, leads to fatty liver disease which will worsen insulin/diabetes issues.

This is a good site with information on keto and fasting: https://www.dietdoctor.com/
Some of it is free.  Some of it is members only, but you can get a free trial membership.
