Hey fellas urgent help needed !

[01dragonslayer]

The hardest part of any journey is those first few steps. She just needs to keep moving in the right direction and as she sees improvement in the mirror her dedication should get stronger.

I agree 100% with this.....the best motivation is seeing results. It makes you come back for more.

My only word of caution would be jamming her to an extreme right off the rip. People burn out too quick on that and end up worse off mentally when they fail. Get her to make little steps food wise and find satisfying alternatives. Do not tell her she cant have a certain food as its likely to cause stress. Instead ask her to limit those foods and try to make better, more informed decisions. I find this is usually a complete mental game where shit food is the endorphin releaser they use to deal with lifes bullshit while we are able to use exercise to do it. Make the change over smooth and slow and before you know it she will be on the right path. As for Metformin, dedinitely an option along with many other available medications. Does she have access to a doctor? If not Id have no issues doing metformin.

Yes she has access to a doctor. I told her to ask the doctor about metformin and she did. We will see what her doctor says !

My wife had 4 kids. Oldest 21 youngest 5.
After our 5 year old she could not lose weight and gained alot

She lost some at first but stayed 175-185. She changed her diet and used Adipex from Dr 37.5mg a day for like 9 months. He kept her on till she was 134 pounds get target. They helped with suppressing appetite, but we all know our thyroid stops when we not getting enough food so I have her some t3/t4 mix and.......

She just started some Novothyral she comes to gym but mostly does cardio machines. She learned that with age we can't burn it like we used to and that she can't eat a plate of food but 1/4 size of mine. She learned that a woman needs around 1200 cals a day.

Diets are temporary fixed or goals. Carbs are my friend use them at right time and use long acting carbs in AM with eggs, Greek yogurt fat free snack, veggy carbs at lunch with meat, protien bar snack, meat with fiber carbs at night!!! Females have much more constipation than males.

Also there is another rule that goes out window. Get to a level at gym to push further and further make body adapt to what we putting it thru. Sure it takes time, but once we get there we just eat healthy and push little harder and cut a few things out diet to get to next place. I live very active life most of time, when I work being I contract, I am so busy as mechanic on large equipment and my workouts, guys I haven't watched much of what I eat in years... But my habits good because I avoid alot of things but I eat some junk food everyday some days 1 debie cake others can of Peanut butter and bag of nella wafers.... lol!! But I cut back and push to a point that my body will not wanna hold fat due to what I put it thru. Our body wants to work best at what we put it thru. Effient and consistent length of time matters.

A Dr will help a person lose weight if they tried on own keep failing and health is more risk than the stimulate!!!
