Im tipping the scales at 260!!!!!! I feel more sluggish than ever. Im 26 years old and I feel 60. I clearly have to make some drastic changes in my eating and exercising habits.

1st issue is diet.
Im single. Im broke. I live with a room mate. These things come together to make watching my diet a lot more difficult than it should be. I end up eating fastest and cheapest food I can find. Can somebody suggest healthy, cheap, fast alternatives to mexi microwavable dinners?

2nd issue- exercise! I used to be a boxer. I worked out constantly then. Now I cant seem to figure out a way to exercise. I always over do it on my first day and then I cant move the next 3 days and then I give up. How can I develop a progessive system that wont put me out of commision?..Thanks

I love to play world of warcraft..is there anything I can do while Im sitting at my pc and playing?

You can only defeat obesity by removing the cause from your life: The food industry. Start making everything you eat from scratch. If you eat cereal for breakfast, cook 3 or 5 minute unflavoured oatmeal, oatbran or cream of wheat, cream of rice on the stove and add your own cut up fruit, coconut. The microwave destroys 90% of nutrients. Don't eat 1% milk. Milk fat is good for you. Eat more fats and oils. Eating fat makes you thin. Except hydrogenated oils (trans fat). Absolutely no hydrogenated oils, so no margerine. It is only one molecule away from plastic. Use butter. Low fat diets cause obesity, heart disease and stroke. Don't eat white sugar.

To clean your arteries out of hydrogenated buildup, mix a tablespoon of cold pressed flax oil (refrigerated in health store) into a quarter cup of cottage cheese every day. The oil when mixed in sulfurated protein becomes water soluble in the body and loosens clogged arteries as well as killing cancer cells. (As researched and proven by Dr Johanna Butwig, PHD).

Invest in a large bottle of extra virgin olive oil. Pure - no canola mixture. Put olive oil and butter on all your steamed veggies and salads. Make your own mashed potatoes and veggies. Vow to never eat anything that came out of a box. To save time cook extra amounts and reheat some next day in toaster oven on 250 degrees. Microwaving kills too many nutrients. Eat mixed nuts everyday. Chop healthy fat containing avocadoes onto salad or sandwich. They are NOT fattening. Decrease the amount of bread you eat and don't eat donuts for breakfast. Eat eggs instead. Keep hard boiled eggs in the fridge for breakfast and lunch all week. Eat protein when you feel like something sweet.

I know this sounds expensive and time consuming but it is the only permanent way to stabilize body weight. The food industry has got you where they want you.

Re: computer games. You can put the monitor and keyboard on a higher level so you are standing instead of sitting. March on the spot periodically, while you play.

To ease cravings take 5 grams of glutamine per day.

P.S. you mentioned you are broke. I'm not meaning to imply that you are on welfare, but welfare recipients can apply for a special diet budget. Welfare has forms for a doctor to fill out and you get around $200 extra per month for a special diet expense.

Nothing is more important than developping a good life habit
