I am 47, weigh 260 lb, height 5'6".
I need tips to lose some of this weight. 7 years ago I lost 52lb with the help of appetite suppressants and eating less than 800 calories per day. I maintained that for a total of 8 months, then just put it all (plus more) back on. I need to lose weight, my knees ache (at times I can hardly walk), my back aches, my blood pressure is through the roof and I can't keep up with simple household tasks.
I know I need to eat more often as I don't eat breakfast and rarely eat lunch (I have always been like this). I have always had terrible trouble trying to eat breakfast, it makes me feel nauseas. What can I try?
I know I need to increase my exercise but I find it causes too much pain even to go for a 5 minute walk. Any suggestions?
