thanks for the help.

GET SURGERY OR BUY THE AIR CLIMBER

well im over weight as well but eat some healthy food and stay off the junk food. you also need to get a lot of exercise. like riding your bike, swimming, or playing basketball. I heard dancing also works. I've done this kind of stuff and still lost about 20 pounds. im still fat but I know I can do it and so can u

excersise 2 to 3 hours a day, not overdoing it ofcourse or you'll make your condition worse, start with the basics, push ups, sit ups, chin ups and the stair climb (its good for joints). Your not going to be able to lose that much just doing the basics even though they will help, what you need to do is also walk (a lot) but not running because that's not good for joints if there sore, you have to be motivated and persistant for losing weight so a partner will help. L8r on you could try weights ( not heavy because you want stamina over muscle ). I hope I helped, if you have further questions then im copa_town_hooligans.

I saw your other post too.
I'll be your buddy.
I can help you.

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.

BMI (Body Mass Index) is a measurement of body fat based on height and weight that applies to both men and women between the ages of 18 and 65 years.

25 to 29.99 Overweight
30 to 34.99 Obesity (Class 1)
35 to 39.99 Obesity (Class 2)

'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.
