I am looking to shed some serious weight. I need some advice/tips. Please?

I've always been overweight, I am 19 now, I will turn 20 this fall, and I want to change for good. I've tried everything.....Weight Watchers, Nutri-System, etc. And I do lose weight....but it does not stay off, and that's not realistic, to stay on those diets for the rest of my life. I am probably at my highest weight right now, almost 240. I hate it. That's not right, especially for somebody who is only 19 and 5'4-5'5. I know I will never be teeny, and that is fine. I've always had a big bust, I even had breast reduction surgery when I was 16. It helped alot, but I know if I lost weight it would help even more. I am not a lazy person, I love to work out, and I have been a dancer my entire life. I am going to school right now to become a nurse, this summer I will be working as a CNA (nurse assistant) and I want to start getting in good shape because I know it will help me perform better for my job. Just this past year I've been dealing with so much stress and I have definitely packed on the pounds. I want to change my everyday habits, I'm a college student, so it's hard to keep a healthy diet, and I always hit the drive through late at night after night class. Tomorrow I am going to start working out again, very good. But I just need help with what foods I need to stay away from if I want to lose atleast 80 lbs. by December or sooner. I am also planning on moving to Arizona later this year (September/October), so I want to change, a fresh start, a new place. Any good tips or advice if I want to lose some SERIOUS WEIGHT by the end of this year, and keep it off? Thank you so much!I am looking to shed some serious weight. I need some advice/tips. Please?
There are many forms of metabolism going on in your body right now, but the one everyone is talking about it the metabolism of fat. This is actually something that the liver does when it converts stored fat to energy. The liver has other functions, but this is one of its main jobs.





Unfortunately, another of the liver's duties is to pick up the slack for the kidneys, which need plenty of water to work properly. If the kidneys are water-deprived, the liver has to do their work along with its own, lowering its total productivity. It then can't metabolize fat as quickly or efficiently as it could when the kidneys were pulling their own weight. If you allow this to happen, not only are you being unfair to your liver, but you're also setting yourself up to store fat.


so, drink 6-8 8oz.glasses of water a day,


The most recent scientific study, published in the journal Obesity Research, found that drinking at least 3 eight-ounce glasses of fat free milk in a day helped people lose more weight than those dieters who drank little or no milk.





Most importantly, milk drinkers' fat loss, especially around their tummies, was significantly greater. They also maintained more muscle. so, drink your milk and water and eat a lot of fruit and veggies and baked meats and boiled meats like chicken and turkey ,i like to make extra so i can snack on cold chicken later don't use bbq sauce it has sugar ,use garlic powder or lemon pepper season .eat tuna in water not oil,no mayo, mix it in green beans,all beans are high in protine low in fat,like pinto beans mix them with crushed tomatoes,do not eat fried foods,do not drink soda, do not eat junk food or chips,do not eat before bed, just eat well and do not eat small amounts or your body will go into starvation mode, just choose good foods, i hope i helped,
