I need help losing weight...

I used to be bulimic... I know it's bad and what not.. but I used to be anorexic/bulimic and it wasn't fun... I was 5 foot 3 inches and under 80 lbs... so It wasn't a pretty sight but now that I stopped...I'm over weight and I try to loose weight...

healthily but I can't... I've tried everything I can think of, all different diets... Most common was eating little healthy meals, so it was wake up have a helthy breakfast, about 2-3 hours later have a little healthy snack, maybe a 100 cal pack or piece of fruit and 2-3 hours after that have lunch, snack again and dinner, But that didn't do anything but maintain my weight, and I exercise plenty, I go to the gym for 2-4 hours a day with 1-2 days a week off so my body can recover and I run 4-5 miles a day... but nothing... and recently I've tried to eat only once a day( I know not healthy...) But still nothing... I don't know what else to do or try.. Please help

How to LOSE weight?

First, determine from the information below, what your weight should be. Then set yourself goals of a week, 2 weeks, a month, 3 months, 6 months and a year. As you see yourself meeting your goals it becomes easier. Remember, you didn't gain your weight overnight so don't expect to lose if overnight. Plus, weight lost slowly is more likely to stay off than weight lost in a hurry.

If you need conversion info, 1 kg = 2.2 pounds and 2.54 cm = 1 inch (12 inches = 1 foot)

How can I Lose 1 pound of body weight per week?

One pound of body fat is equal to about 3500 calories. So to lose 1 pound of weight per week, you need to eat 500 calories/day LESS than you burn.

But it's not a good idea to lose weight simply by cutting calories. As well as decreasing calories you should increase your daily physical exercise. This helps to burn calories and build more lean tissue which in turn burns more calories.

What should a minimum calorie intake be?

As a guide to minimum calorie intake, the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) recommends that calorie levels never drop below 1200 calories per day for women or 1800 calories per day for men. Even these calorie levels are quite low.

Another thing that helps to lose weight is to always eat a good breakfast. That helps to jump start your metabolism which helps start burning calories. Also, try to drink 8 eight ounce glasses of water every day. One before every meal (except breakfast) and before all snacks. That helps curb your appetite which helps reduce caloric intake.
