Quickest way to loose weight?

[Anonymous]

i used to exercise all the time but now i can't due to injury and stricked instructions from the doctors. i've noticed that i've slowly started to put weight on, i eat healthy but it is still not working, any ideas? i need to loose about half a stone by the end of this month due to an event i'm going to and i don't want to look too big. Any ideas?

If you can't exercise there's only one other way to do it and that is by strict diet. You either have to cut calories or burn them. Since you can't burn them, then cutting them is the only option. Just for reference, 3000 calories is about 1 lb. So for every 3000 calories you cut below the amount you normally burn is roughly about 1lb of weight loss in a typical person.

just adapt your exercises, so your doctor said don't exercise, well did he literally mean don't spend your bodies energy? or don't perform any activities such as running, jumping, swimming, etc? there are many ways to burn calories without using the conventional methods of exercise. just think outside the box. you can power walk for an hour to get your exercise.
