Accepted Answer

Lasting weight loss: In order to lose weight and keep it off, you need to make a commitment to a permanent lifestyle change.  Most importantly you need to commit to a more active lifestyle.

Question 5

what should i eat for a balanced diet?

Accepted Answer

A variety of foods: Healthy diets have natural foods that take time to chew but contain few calories. Examples include carrots, celery, and iceberg lettuce (little/no salad dressing). When shopping for fruits, buy small ones no bigger than a tennis ball, because fruits have sugar. Drinks without calories include water and green tea. Surely avoid sugar & simple starch calories. Eat some protein with each meal.

Question 6

is it okay to eat after 7 o'clock on a diet?

Accepted Answer

Snack on veggies: I advise my own patients to not eat 3 hours before bedtime.  

Because most people who eat after dinner do so for reasons other than hunger--reward, companionship, sadness, boredom- and usually eat high calorie, high sugar foods (and occasionally fourth meals). 

So if you want to eat after 7pm, after dinner, eat something with crunch, with few calories, and make yourself sit down with a plate.
