    Noooo don’t do the pills! You’ve got a lot of time left to lose the weight! Find a good exercise regimen and change your diet to eat healthier

    The only healthy way to lose weight and keep it off is to burn more calories than you consume. A year is plenty of time to lose 26 pounds. Consider a calorie/step tracker like MyFitnessPal.

    Try limiting your sugars/carbs/processed foods! You'll be amazed at how quickly you can feel great when you eat whole foods like meat, vegetables, and fruits without added sugars/processing.

    I third(fourth?!) limiting sugar and carbs and no soda! It's amazing how much weight you lose just from stopping the processed foods. Make it a lifestyle change, not a huge diet. You just need to make sure you can keep it up when not revert back, so make small changes at a time.

    I wouldn't do pills and honestly I wouldn't do any crazy diet that you know you could it last 12 months on. I'm getting married in November so what I

    Sorry I hit reply before my message finished hahaha. Anyway I'm doing a no sugar diet and I limit might eat meals to once every two weeks. I also have been increasing my workout routine. I would maybe suggest you calorie counting as that way you don't fully have to deprive yourself rather cut back on what you're eating. You may want to slowly start cutting back on your favorite foods and then transition into more stricter healthy eating style.

    I’m a fan of Weight Watchers. It’s not a fad, it’s real life eating, it’s something you can maintain even beyond the wedding and most of all.... it works! In 2002 I lost 30 pounds (that I gained after college)

    12 months is plenty of time to lose 26 pounds. I know pills sound like an easy fix, but honestly the weight loss pills never work. I would just work out and count macros. Try to stick to a high protein, low carb, moderate healthy fat diet and you should lose weight. I do take a daily pill in the morning that is a pre-workout before I go to the gym. May surpass appetite slightly but it’s mostly an energy boost. Don’t think it would help without the gym and diet.

    I was able to lose 20 pounds by cutting out sugary snacks/drinks, using an app to track calories (I like MyFitnessPal because it’s easy to scan foods if they have a barcode), eating more plant-based foods, and working out 3 times per week. From what I’ve read, it is generally safest to lose 1-2 pounds per week. You will have more than enough time if your wedding is still 12 months out!

    I work nights and started a meal replacement shake ( before I sleep) with fruit , salad or eggs each morning. I've been more food conscious for my other meal of the day and I so some light exercise outside of my job. I've been dropping a few pounds a week and my cravings for soda went away. I'm not saying it will work that way for everyone but for me it's been helping.

    Hello
    Thanks for getting back to me.

    I ve already left the carbohydrates. I just can't rid of our desi bread and rice (biryani). In fact I am a foodie that is why I am more worried. It's really difficult to leave bad childhood habits.

    Hi
    Thanks you so much for replying.

    Cutting back favourite food is really difficult. I think I need bit motivation to leave the favourite food. This is the worst thing I am doing with myself.

    Hi
    Thanks for the advise.

    Yes you are absolutely right that leaving soda doesn't help everyone. As I was never fond of soda in my whole life. So there is no difference if I leave the soda...

    It's hard for real. I don't keep it in the house and limit cheat meals for now.
