No.: You yourself admit you eat "unhealthly." no one gains weight overnight and loses weight overnight! i hate the word diet. I like life style change. I do not know enough to recommend a specific food lifestyle, but you did NT get to 178 overnight, and you will not get to 120 quickly either! you need to face reality!
