Wow. O_O I have Aspergers and bi-polar disorder ...

And if you wanna lose that much weight in a year you really need to join a gym, get a trainer and get a food plan low in fats, sugars etc. Also, cut out any junk food, esp. drinks loaded with sugar and things like that.
Drinking enough water and getting enough sleep is like, critical for weight loss from what I've heard. A trainer would tell you more about that.

I really don't mean to sound rude, Groszewski, but this isn't your thread. If you have questions of your own, create your own thread.

irhmrh, the key to losing weight is a healthy lifestyle, exercise, and most of all commitment. No sodas, sweets, junk food, etc should be eaten. All the obvious bad foods should be eliminated.

Running is probably the most effective way of losing weight. At home you can do the basics like sit ups and push ups. I say you can start off with that and next time you see your doctor update him and ask him for advice on how to continue losing weight.

Also don't put a time limit on when to lose weight. Trying to overexert yourself can cause you to end up gaining all the weight back. You want to do this slowly so you can lose weight and make sure it stays off.

Sorry, I'll make sure I do that next time.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but set a realistic goal. Shoot for one pound a week.

The first change you must make is diet. Go through your cupboards and throw out all the fried food and candy. Dump the sodas down the drain. Go to your breadbox, take all the white bread and feed it to the birds. Go to the store and buy a lot of fruits and vegetables. Buy whole grain breads. Get some milk and fruit juice.

The second is the issue most people never confront, exercise. You need to do an aerobic exercise such as running about five times a week at least and you need to maintain a high heart rate during that exercise for thirty minutes. If you have a treadmill or an exercise bike in the house that would also work. Sorry there isn't an easier way, but you'll like the results.

just some simple things to do are to restrict eating to meal times only and do about 30 minutes activity a day. it can be as simple as a 30 minute walk. just doing those things can help you lose weight.

Walks are not sufficient for the type of weight loss he desires because they are not strenuous enough. It all depends on commitment, though. A jog that induces pouring sweat comparable to what I get after running a few miles would be sufficient. A heart rate of at least 100 bpm should be maintained, and increased as the weight is lost as cardiovascular endurance will have increased. Do what you're capable of, not what feels good. After exercising you should be tired and hungry. For reference, on a fast run I maintain about 180 bpm; I'm 5'10 and 120 lbs. Also, it's better to eat four or five smaller meals rather than three large ones.

ok, but my uncle lost 15kg from eating healthy and not between meals, and just from walking 15 minutes each way to buy the newspaper every morning. so it can be done.

More slowly, though.

More slowly, though.

yeah but rapid weight lose isn't good for you anyway. large weight loses over time is great but you don't want to lose heaps in a short time.

Whoa! We don't want to kill the guy! If your doc says lose the weight, you should ask him the best way to do it. Being your doctor means he is most familiar with your medical/physical condition, so he can prescribe the best exercise plan, and diet plan, and maybe refer you to a trainer and a nutritionist. Take it slow, be consistent, remember this will take time, and your goal shouldn't be just to drop the weight, but rather to make permanent lifestyle changes that will ensure you keep the weight off, forever, and maintain a healthy lifestyle, forever.

Well, I am exactly the opposite of your problem. I have ADD-Type Impulsive, and Aspergers. I take meds for my ADD, because if I don't, I start acting like a 4 year old, and can't focus/concentrate for crap. I am required to take my meds (Adderall XR 20 mg, BTW) between 6 or 7 am, and it usually lasts till about 5 or 6 in the afternoon.

But, anyways, the Pros and Cons of my meds is: Pros-I am more focused, and can concentrate on my work more, and helps me keep myself under control. If I stop taking my meds, I get hyper, I start acting up, and I don't do my work and then my grades slip, but I usually take my meds unless I have ran out of them.
Cons- Although my meds help me, they screw around with my appetite (psychological, obviously) and make me not feel like eating, even when I am actually hungry, I just don't really feel it.

So, with my meds screwing around with my appetite, I don't eat as much, and as a result of that, I am between 15* to 7 pounds underweight. (*This varies; **My current weight is between 87 and 90 pounds, my BMI is 16.5).
I need 3,000 calories a day. It is hard to eat when your stomach is telling you one "Feed me, D*mmit", and your brain is telling you "Are you hungry? I dunno, You might not be hungry, but you could be. But, maybe you aren't. Well, are you hungry? I dunno. I wish stomach would talk to me...."

(Sorry for weird Organ Dialoge, It just popped up in my mind) So, my question is: How can you eat a lot of food when you can't control what is occurring in the bowels of your brain's neuroreceptors? I mean, I NEED the food, but when I am actually hungry, I just don't feel all that hungry, even if my stomach is growling.

So, if anyone else has had this problem before, and found a solution, could you give me some tips?

My Dad the Shrink has repeatedly mentioned that ADHD meds diminish appetite (it's not all in your head), so it's not surprising that your belly says 'No' when the clock says 'Yes'. The solution is to cut a deal with your stomach that says it can expect to graciously accept a small, healthy meal, without protest, when the clock says so. Even if you're not entirely hungry. That's because your body really IS hungry, it needs the nutrition, but the meds are 'tricking' you into believing it doesn't. Eat a small bite anyway. You'll feel better.

Which is why I stated a one pound per week limit.


I've helped some of my friends lose weight before and all of them have kept it off. The exercise and diet are intended to be permanent.

Dude, Groszewski I already told you once that this isn't your thread. Copy those posts or quote them into a separate thread. Enough about that here.

Exactly, well said, IAMSAM, what I always think. Usually I try to eat a snack after school when I get home, and etc, etc. But, what also is a problem for a problem is that I need to cram at least 3,000 calories into me a day. How else do I eat that much without going to McDonalds everyday for about a month? But seriously, I just have trouble trying to keep a food schedule because I'm always doing something, and I'll get a grumble from my stomach,and I Know I'm hungry and Need to eat, but the thought of eating just fades away after a few moments and I just inadvertently forget about it. Then, 8 hours later, when I can't fall asleep because I'm hungry, I think to myself "Dang, why didn't I just eat it?"

I'll respond to this here, eventhough the Boss wants you to start a new thread. Maybe you should do that.

There's a diff between eating to gain weight and eating to maintain weight (aka eating to live, eating so your body has enough fuel, etc). Maybe you should do these sorta seperately, focus first on eating regularly (even if you're not hungry or you 'forget'), get used to scheduled eating. Then, when you've mastered that, move onto adding calories for weight gain.

I'm ok talking more about this with you, but start a new thread.

I thought I made myself pretty clear here.

Seriously I'm not posting here to be ignored. I've been very patient with both of you and I don't appreciate the disrespect that's been shown here.

Eat healthy, be active. I think those two things sound significantly reduce your weight. I'm no nutritionist, but I'm sure that advice will work.

[irhmrh]

another thing is that i have NO will power

Well get some. You can't do a fucking thing if you don't make yourself. Grow a backbone and stick with a healthy diet and exercise plan. As I said previously, there is no easy way to lose weight. You dug yourself into this ditch over many years and now you've got to climb out on your own.

Yeah that's pretty much what I was gonna say. You're not going to magically become healthy and no one's gonna do it for you, so you can hardly ask us to provide a miracle diet/workout plan that you don't have to commit yourself to and won't put any work into. It just doesn't work like that. If you want to lose the weight, you have to do what it takes.
