If you plan on taking an entire year to lose 50 pounds, you can do it with just a few LIFE STYLE changes because that is LESS THAN 1 pound a week. Just eat a little less or buy fat free if you had been buying regular products, stuff like that. You said you don't like to exercise, but it can REALLY help. Escpessially building muscle, I know originally muscle may gain pounds but it's not at all fat plus muscle burns more calories than fat so if you build muscle you will burn more calories while doing nothing. Cardio is best for losing fat though, if you really hate exercise just jog during commercials, or take stairs when you would use the elevateor, just small amounts of exercise through out the day can really add up
good luck!

People- weight loss IS NOT a secret. you JUST burn more calories then you consume it is that simple. SO either eat less, exercise more or do both. Thats it, easy said, easy done. (There are also pills if you are not incontrol of yourself, but I don't believe in those people are in control of their actions and shouldn't need pills)

i know. weight loss is hard, and it doesn't come overnight. but what many people don't understand is the energy we put into and use in our bodies. also known as calories. there is about 3500 calories on a pound of fat, so what you need to do is make it so you're eating less calories(not necissarily eating less food! just healthier- veggies have a lot less calories then junk! and snaking on veggies and fruits help to not over eat at meals. also! they have a lot of fiber and fiber makes you go to the bathroom and loose weight...well- um- hehe- back on track!) and burning a good amount during excersize. cardio is better then weight lifting if you want to look thinner. at first! cardio helps get the layer of fat off. i lose weight by doing tae-bo and this game called dance dance revelution(find something fun!) and i use slimfast for one meal and cut out junk food. but you have to understand ...

I have an idea for you, try excerise everyday, byt doing things you like, not eating any sweets, and only eating at meal times and not at any other time of the dat. DO NOT EAT PAST 6:00pm so try to eat dinner before 6:00 ebcause if you past 6 the fat is stored and your not loseing it because you'll have to go to bed in 2-4 hours so you'll be sleeping with the extra fat. Hopes this works for you!!!!!AND ONLY DRINK WATER YOU NEED SOME MILK TO HELP YOUR BONES SO 2 glasses of milk a dad is good enough even 3 is okay!!!!

To lose weight don't eat when your not hungry. Yes I know that can be very difficult but EVERYTIME you go for something STOP and say out loud- "This *cookie* is *250* calories. It will give me 1 miniute of pleasure but cost me *45* miniutes of hard exercise. Is it worth it?" This has REALLY helped me so I highy reccomend thinking this through everytime you are thinking about eating something when your not hungry. (if you are actually hungry and not just craving something then eat, but other wise ask yourself this and then think again before mindlessly snacking.)

The way he did it was the same way anyone losing weight by burning more calories then he consumed. That can be done by eating less, exercising more, or both. There is no big secret to losing weight (unless you have a disease or some other health problem)- you just need to burn more calories then you consume
