Answer

This is what you do. Eat just a little bit, such as a piece of whole grain toast with a piece of ham or peanut butter on it for breakfast. About 1 1/2 -2 hours later eat a piece of fruit or a few (like 7 nuts), keep eating very small amounts very often, every 1 1/2 hours or so. Tell yourself that you don't have to wait very long before you get to eat again. By the second or third day or sooner, your appetite will shrink. Make everything you eat count. Don't eat sugar or diet products as much as possible. They're bad for you, but until you get your weight under control, cut them out of your diet. Use olive oil when cooking, no fried or fast food and try some low-impact exercise, like walking or swimming and be committed to getting healthy. The number one thing I know is that you need to eat frequent smaller meals. It is key to your success.

Best of everything.
