I agree with Elspode. To weigh less, you have to burn more than you eat. No other non-surgical way to do it. You have to operate at a calorie deficit. Like paying off credit cards, two big things stand in your way. One is the with credit cards, you have to live below your means as you pay down the balance. With the diet, you have to eat less than you want / can. And the second thing is that in both cases, this is an change and an uncomfortable one. And, sadly, the discomfort is most easily removed by the very actions that got things to this point in the first place. Eat, spend. It is HARD.

I've had personal experience with both the jaw-wiring-shut and the stomach-stapling routes. One was my ex-fiance' and the other was my ex-sister-in-law. The results were dramatic. The weight does come off, lots and fast.
