Before I lost weight I went to my doctor and found out my thyroid was not working properly, and my hormones were out of balance. Along with the thyroid and hormone issues being resolved I didn't just depend on that. I do a pretty intense cardio exercise 30- 40 min a day/ 5 days a week, do weight training 3 times a week, and I did lose the weight! It became a lifestyle change in my food and activity level and I have kept my weight down for 6 years now, no more yo-yo weight fluctuations. I did hire a personal trainer for 4 weeks who helped with a food and exercise plan but there is plenty of information that is free too. I do "cheat" but really watch quantities and don't make it a daily habit of indulging. I feel 100 times better, this is what worked for me.
