Need help to loose weight.

Heres the story.

I have always been a big person i was born a large baby and have been ever since.

Although i did do allot of comfort eating.

I stopped smoking 3 years ago and in 2 months after stopping smoking i had put on 6 stone (yeah its bad) as i eat to stop smoking because i was worried how far i was going to go i started again after 2 months.

Im no classed as obsese on a body mass index calculator.

I have tried diet programs, Purchase many excersise equipments.

Tryed dieting allot but i always seem to given as i have no confidence in myself and when i see how bad i am it puts me off to even thing of changing many times i have had boxs of tablets in front of me but never gone that far.

I enjoy life when im out but when im out im drinking 50+units of alchohol when im not out i just feel low.

How can i get the willpower to loose weight and fast i want to loose about a lb a day otherwise i would just see myself as a failure.

I have tried walking but i have problems very sharp pains in my legs when i walk more than 10 minutes or so i also have back problems really need to sort my life out.

can you advise?

Dancing sure will help burn those calories. Have you spoke to a dr about you wanting to lose weight\?

Don’t take diet pills. Just stop eating crap. If you’re comfort eating, you’re probably eating tons of junk food and most people have absolutely no idea how much they shove into their mouths until they write it down.

Here’s a diet plan that will probably work for you:

http://www.nosdiet.com/

No snacks, sweets, seconds, except on days that start with S.

Losing a pound a day when you’ve been pigging out your whole life is unrealistic. Set more reasonable goals. If you trim 500 calories a day from your diet, you’ll lose a pound a week (1 pound = 3600 calories. 3600 / 7 = about 500). Walk two miles a day.

Or don’t. Be fat. Come back and post your excuses about why what I said above won’t work.

Here’s what I know. One year ago today, I was 50 pounds heavier than I am today. Thanks to cleaning up my diet and following http://www.crossfit.com/ workouts, I am lean, mean, and stronger than I’ve been in 15 years. My two mile run is faster today by TEN MINUTES than it was just a year ago. That’s the power of not allowing yourself to make excuses anymore.
