Although i completely agree with you AJ that exercise is a key to weight loss however eating less is not always the solution. It is more about making the right food choices and also alot of psychological issues can also be underlining bad food choices and should be addressed. Every individual is different with what foods they should be eating and when, why and how, as obviously we all lead different lifestyles. For me personally, it has never been about me over eating,in fact i eat alot less than my super skinny friends, my problem has been about putting the wrong foods in my mouth. I am not a comfort eater but yet a very very bad sweet tooth and as long as i can remember i have always had dessert after dinner and these are bad habits that i have had since a young age and mentally these habits cannot be changed over night in addition any junk food i do eat just sticks to me, whereas my slim friends can eat the same and no weight gain, so possibly genes and metabolism has effects there too. I have had to change the way i look at food and i am trying to keep a eye on my Carbohydrates and Calorie intake which hasn't been easy, an example i just found out from my surgeon the other day that orange juice has more Calories in it than Coke!!! I love O.J and hate fizzy drinks, i drink plenty of water but i like a O.J every now and then but not any more, so im gutted but yaye at least i am now know about O.J. As for exercise being an above amputee (congenital) and very over weight, my exercise is limited. That's not an excuse mind you, i can still go swimming and love table tennis. I strongly advise working with a dietician and your GP and family to help with weight loss. Work out a plan that works for you and centred around your lifestyle.
