What will help me the most when trying to lose weight?

I thought a lot last night about how I have another 70 years on earth and how I don't want to be overweight and miserable for my entire life. I want to lose weight. What will help the most though? Like is diet more important, exercise, or a combination? So far I am going to start walking anywhere around town and only save my car for out of town, so I will be walking every day for work or the store. I am also going to cut out fried food and foods with excess sugar. What else can I do? I'm 23, 5'11 and 265 pounds. I want to be under 220 lbs

Recommended Answer:

I think a combination of healthy diet and exercise is the best way to go. Sometimes it is easier to focus on just one thing at a time though especially if you are just starting out. I would try to get moving first then slowly start working on what you eat. Walking and cutting out junk food is a very good start.Good luck!

• its 80% diet, 20% exercise. cutting out all junk, sugars and soda and just eat healthy home cooked foods. cut down on carbs and switch to wholegrains, no refined white carbs like white rice, pasta and white bread.
• I believe what you need to do is to get on a nutrition plan that will help you eat properly based on a set caloric amount to reach your goals. Exercise helps tremendously but you have to be on the right plan to get there.We are here to help you. Visit OW2L.blogspot.com to get more information & free fitness coaching!
