In my experience weightloss-plans are usually way too extreme and not adaptable to each individual... and the pills, i'm not gonna even try to explain (lmao).
Similar to what "azara" told you:
First you must know how disciplined you are to be able to strictly follow your designated daily caloric-intake you set for yourself.
Second you need to determine your daily caloric-maintenance level (I could do it aswell with alittle bit more information: level of activity (0-10);).

when you have your daily caloric-maintenance level you try to eat less calories than that number during your day. The amount of calories less depends on how disciplined you think you are. The bigger the amount the harder it will be, but results will show faster.
For beginnings i would always recommend to go -100 and slowly ramp up to -250 over the course of a few weeks to acomodate the new lifestyle... Good Luck :)

First you're going to do a colon cleanse so your body can start to absorb food the right way. Next you're going to wake up early in the morning because that's just what you do!! You're going to squat 3 times a week! You're going to compare your squats weekly. Don't up your reps only up your weight. You keep that heart rate high and I promise you that you will feel better and enjoy life more. That's all that really matters.

What is a stone equal to in pounds?

[wizardskiss]

1 stone = 14 pounds. I'm 188 pounds

[Azara]

188 isn't so bad for 5 10. I think you could be 160 and be within normal bmi.

Eat minimum of 1500 calories a at max if 1700.

Try to get a good amount of physical activity daily. Not necessarily hard core exercise but like walking or stuff you like to do --three hours a day.

Eat at least one half gram protein for every pound of body weight. More is ok. You want to support your muscle tissue while your body is breaking down tissue for fuel you don't want to lose muscle so protein and not losing weight too quickly is VERY important.

Eat a generous amount of vegetables. Count any toppings or oils used in calorie count. Vegetables themselves are essentially calorie free so you don't need to count those. Unless it's starchy stuff like potatoes or peas. Eat like ten servings day it will keep you full and give you very important vitimins and minerals. Which Are even more important during weight loss. You want less calorie and higher quality.

[Azara]

Have at least one tablespoon of unsaturated oil like olive or safflower per day. You don't need a lot but you do need a bit. The but you have plays an important role in skin care and nerve function.

Have a moderates mount of whole grains.

Try this for a week and see if you go down at all. If you don't lose weight at 1700 try 1500. If you don't lose weight at 1500 try for another week and if still nothing make sure you're properly counting things and try 1200.

Feel free to message me if you like. And experiment with activities you really enjoy try new things see this as an opportunity to discover more of yourself and life :)

Thanks, this really helps :)

Great I'm glad. Good luck!

Remember you don't want to lose more than two pounds swell to give your body time to ease into it skin to reduce mass and muscle mass to remain relatively constant :)
