Hi, my name is Jamie and I'm 18. I'm very overweight, I'm 5'11", 242 lbs. I need a good diet plan to follow and i dont care how hard it may be. I'm desperate to lose all this excess weight. Thanks

Desperate is harsh...when we are desperate its hard to focus...try stepping back and take a deep breath...you can do this...you're 18...lots of life to live...congratulations on getting on here and deciding to do something about it...for your diet start by cutting out the junk...start slow...this week cut the chips out(or whatever is your favorite junk food)and commit to getting out there and walking 20 min 4 days a week...next week add to that...cut out another junk food...add some time..or add weights to your workout.When you realize this is a lifestyle change for you...and not some crash diet..it's easier to accept that it will take time...no need to rush...do it right..so when the weight is gone it stays gone!!!Do a little more today than you did yesterday and you will get there Jamie...any questions???Post away..have fun and good luck!!!!:)
