| Hi Sunshiny, welcome to WeMITTS!
I think as Starlight said a lot of weight loss is about finding a diet thats right for you. And, as crimson noir said, it's also about sticking to it. Diets take time to work, there is no instant fix.
Like everyone in the WeMITTS forum I have a lot of weight to lose. I tried LCDs, Slimfast, WW, and nothing worked. I lack a lot of motivation and hate feeling restricted so those diets didn't work for me. Now I'm on South Beach, which is about learning to eat the right carbs and fats. It's a relatively free diet (after the first 2 weeks) and I enjoy and profit from that flexibility. I also recently discovered that I really enjoy a simple long walk and now take "an evening walk". Everyone has something that will suit them and not others. There is no right answer. Only effort, determination, committment and time.
To feel better... take a positive step... do some research, choose a diet, stick to it and see it through. The feeling you have of taking control of your life, being proactive and seeing the rewards of your efforts is one of the best feelings in the world.
Good luck on your weight loss journey
