I want to lose weight, I don't want to be a statistics.

I hear all the time about how people want to lose weight. Well I do sincerely but I don't know how. I'm 5'11 255lbs. I am a college student therefore lack sleep, it's physically impossible to eat 3 meals and snack because I work two jobs and have classes. Futhermore, I don't know how to eat the right things. Like what is starches?

Most importantly, do you know of some books or methods that helped you lose weight? I wanna loose like 70lbs

Stop saying the word "impossible". It only holds you back.

I'm 5'11'' and about 9 months ago I weighed the same you did. I got up to about 260 and it was so embarrassing seeing the monster I became. I'm at a chubby 185lbs now, with still more weight to lose.

If you want it, you can have it. But you have to want it bad enough.

First of all, 3 meals a day is not ideal. You want more meals that are smaller. 4 minimum and up to maybe 6 is ideal. Make each meal the size of your fist.

Now, I know you are already conjuring up excuses. Save it. There are many ways to carry healthy foods with you on the go, and many ways to prepare well-balanced meals at home. In fact, it costs cheaper than to buy McDonalds all the time. Frozen veggies, canned beans, and frozen meats/fish are simple to prepare and don't spoil. So fix that diet and start buying the good sh*t.

On the go, you can try tupperware containers. Aluminum foil and brown bags also work. People bring their own food all the time, it's not about looking like a big shot and pulling out the wallet at a restaurant. This guy walks you through step by step on how to get over 6 meals a day on simple, healthy foods.

Though, ignore the excess protein he adds since you're not ripped like him and don't need it.
