the easiest thing to start out is limit yourself to 3 meals per day ... its better to eat at least something for breakfast even if its just a granola bar ...but hold yourself to that limit, no snacks, no desserts an hour after dinner etc... etc... then START RUNNING ... just run everyday ... as much as you can ...RUN ...

guarantee in 3 months youll be fine ... its not complicated ...

If you're that much overweight, chances are you're terribly out of shape...

Start WALKING before you start running... Cardio is definitely going to be the big thing, but running before your body is ready to handle it will be adisaster... Start at a steady pace for half an hour a day or whatever for a week or two, and work your way up from there...

Here's a personal tip. If you have money and time, go to a sauna , i guarantee you will lose at least 2, 3 even 4 lbs a day. If you do that everyday pluseating right , i guarantee you will see dramatic result. Celebrities been doing that for years.

You body type and gene is prone to obesity so i guess you gotta continue stay active and eat healthy if you want to lose weight.

And like dudes above me said, you should laid off the sweet snacks and start eating less. Start jogging daily and then run. It helps a lot

Ig nore that.

Everything else is right though - cut out the snacks and take more exercise and you'll begin to see results.

 

[yimoney23]

eat healthier, do more cardio then your good.

 

[that guy]

I would say run, and possibly start playing a sport again.

this is a joke right?


edit: by the way, you're more than 50 lbs overweight... 250 is not a healthy weight for somebody 6'2" unless you are jacked. You need to get downto probably 220 at the minimum to be looking healthy.

Just don't feel like it's going to happen overnight - realize that this is a lifelong situation you've got to prepare for, start planning outhealthier meals (even just turkey sandwiches instead of cheeseburgers will make a big difference).. cut back on soda/beer, and get more active again.

It will take awhile no matter what you do at this point - so just start making lifestyle changes now and start chipping away at it.

Cut the portion's of your meals and Walk for a couple weeks then start up running. and if you want to play basketball also. by doing that you'll looseweight and be back in shape

Glad it worked for you - but eating just 2 salads a day isn't the way to go about it. You should be eating 5-6 smaller meals a day to keep your metabolismgoing. If you starve yourself (which is basically what you're prescribing) your body will just begin "eating" muscle - you'll lose weight,but you'll be a flabby, scrawny dude.

First you need to face the facts and realize that you are wayy more than 50 pounds overweight. Accept that and don't compare yourself to "back in theday" and you will have the right frame of mind.

This has to do with your diet to not just your workout plan. More water, smaller portions, less fastfood, etc. You need to eat breakfast tho because thathelps speed up your metabolism. Cereal and fruit or yogurt can be breakfast nothing big. Then make sure you arent eating at night. Have a cutoff time foryourself. When you eat at night its worse because you don't work it off.

Find a good cardio routine and work your butt off literally...goodluck.

I'll co-sign on the running and eat better, but you also need to get more sleep. Its tough trying to be up all night and then getting up early. Eat right,exercise and sleep. You should be good by the end of the year. Keep us posted with your progress. I'm still trying to drop 30 of 40 lbs. The first 10 wereeasy, now its getting challenging.

Salads are real good, as well as grilled foods. Eat a lot of chicken, turkey and fish.
