First, to help another lose weight the other needs to want to lose weight. Weight loss is as big as drug addiction. Individuals who have never had any type of weight issue would no nothing of this. Weight loss can be an immense thing or an unpleasant thing. Depending on the person. Everyone wants the fast cure all. I lost 75 pounds in five months; from personal experience that was the fastest way to lose weight. That's the quickest way. Nevertheless, it is still a day-to-day thing an individual always has to remember.
One thing you never want to do is start the discussion of all the things health wise if weight is not lost. Someone who is overweight is like telling a smoker you will get cancer if you do not stop smoking. Someone who is overweight knows all the risks and that only puts him or her in defense mode. So if you are a friend or family member trying to help someone you love lose weight you need to be very careful because if you do not they will gain more weight without even knowing it. I have seen so many people think they are helping by getting on someone about their weight it only makes there personality go inward more which causes food to be their comfort.
If you do not understand weight loss then an individual should never talk to anyone who has weight problems. It is like telling a drug addict I do not understand why you cannot stop. if you have never done drugs. Make sure to approach a person with weight issues by someone who has issues or understands the issues. It is also easier to lose weight with a friend than it is alone. So be that lose weight friend. Make sure that the rules are between the two of you. If you cannot be a lose weight friend then promise, something that person will work to get to like buying some outfits and you fit the bill. Alternatively, cash exchange. Everyone has a motivation you need to find that person's motivation.

I was someone who just cared but not enough to do the work so I was lazy and I had a family to support that I could not afford to change everything on shopping. This was my problem but if you go to someone with my ways, I will guarantee they will try and I guarantee it will work.
First, buy the yoga and polities home videos. They are great for someone who just starts out because it does not take much to do the simple steps, they will automatically work into harder things as they see and feel the difference. Do not
