Hi Sarah,
The best way to lose weight is to exercise, especially some weight training. By building muscle you will burn more calories all day long, plus you will feel less stress. Mix it up with biking or other exercises.
Next eat regular, unprocessed foods.
Drink plenty of water.
You’ll find yourself sleeping better.
It may take a few tries to change your habits.
You can greatly increase your odds by working with a trainer or some buddies for the exercise and the nutrition.
If you are like me and most people you will need a defining moment when you say to yourself that you must change, then you will be committed to change. You can put yourself into situations that can create your defining moment. Talk with someone in really poor health. Talk with someone in really good health. Try a strenuous activity with family or friends and be embarrassed. This sounds harsh but these are just ideas based on my experience.
