I need help

[Globul]

I am dangerously overweight ie bordering on obese.

I am also very very unfit as in, I walk up to my dads flat on the third floor and I get puffed out.

I cannot afford the gym so don't say that. I live in both a city and in a country town varying week to week. I need an exercise I can do daily which wont wear me out so much I have to sleep the rest of the day. I might start out on walking normal for half an hour each day but would prefer some variation in what I can and how I can increase stamina and fitness

I would love to go swimming a lot but its not always an option or I don't always have the money.

And LOL I did think about that but I do that every day at least once a day for a week of a fortnight anyways!

you don't need exercise to lose weight. If you've been putting on weight you're eating badly, most likely a combination of the wrong foods and too much of them. If you don't fix the diet, exercise won't help you, if you fix the diet you'll lose weight easily(to a point, the heavier you are the easier it is to shift weight, though becomes increasingly difficult the less overweight you become. IE if you are supposed to be around 10stone, and you're 20 stone, getting down to 18 will be pretty easy. WHile if you were 12 stone, getting to 10 would be infinately harder, thats just how life is.

Well thats the problem I am 12 stone and I need to be at 10 stone. I am 5 foot 4 inches, but I am not looking to put on muscle so sit ups wont be so much on my list of things to do.

I don't eat to many carbs, two slices of bread a day, bran flakes or weetabix and prehaps some potatoes (but more often than not as I am not keen)

I think my mum might have a bike she never uses so I might nag her for it

Breakfast: Sultana Bran or Weetabix with rice milk and sugar if its weetabix. I have a glass of cranberry juice with it.

Lunch: Varies. One day I might have soup with bread. The next I might have sweetcorn, grilled mushrooms and prawns in a low fat sauce. When at my dads its usually carrots, brocoli and protein in the shape of fish or meat free products. Sometimes with potatoes. Sometimes a jacket potato with tuna and sweetcorn. Sometimes a mushroom stir fry with egg noodles.

Dinner: usually a quorn ham slices with cheese or honey sandwich (bertoli spread)

I will have various fruit, a glass of OJ and a cup of green tea during the day.

The problem in my diet is that I attack chocolate like its on rations. Being female, most of the month I can cope on a brunch bar a day with maybe a hot chocolate. A certain time of the month though, I can get through a packet of 9 rocky bars a day. So I know where I am going wrong I just need to find the will power to cut down!

Oh I drink so much water during the day. I probably drink more than 2 litres but meh. I can't eat big portions. All those portions are smaaaalll, I get full really quickly!

I only have 3 meals a day. Those were just different options I have each day. As I said, its snacking that fattens me but its sooooo hard to stop its like an addiction to chocolate
