[quote=Anonymous]Congrats--by asking how to start, you have already taken the first step.

I have not personally struggled with this, but I have watched my mother go through it.  Definitely start with your doctor and therapy.  If you want a program or can't afford doctors, my mother finally found some help with Noom, which incorporates some therapy aspects into its program.

Baby steps -- walking 20 minutes a day might be too much at first, so start with 5, then 7, then 9, etc.

Instead of trying to quit unhealthy foods/habits, try to replace them with healthier foods/habits.  This was how I was able to quit smoking.  And, if you fall off the wagon--which everybody does at some point--forgive yourself and get back on.  Don't use it as an excuse to give up.

Reddit has an incredibly supportive weight loss forum.  While you are on there, also look up "no zero days", which is not weight loss specific, but is a helpful way to think about any long-term goal you are trying to accomplish.[/quote]
