I'm feeling a bit depressed. I need to go in hospital for an operation but they told me they won't perform it until I have a BMI of 30 or less. I'm currently 24 stones with a BMI of 45. They told me I would need to get down to about 16 stones.

I am losing weght slowly, but I'll never lose this amount. I also don't want to lose it too quickly. I'm fairly fit for my size, I play tennis and am in a walking club. Does anyone have any advice to inspire me or helpful hints

Hmmm, great place to come for advice. Just as well I don't need to lose it in a few month !!

From my experience losing weight is a process, you really do have to commit both mentally and physically to whatever program you decide to use. Take it a kilo at a time. Exercise and watch your diet (the proven formula to losing weight).

Take a photograph of yourself today and then again after say 3 weeks, hopefully you'll notice a difference (this should motivate you). There are 3 top online diet programs reviewed in the following link, they may help you achieve your targeted weight loss:
