Cute down your food intake slowly... very overweight people loose weight fast even by cutting down like 400 calories a day... try eating 2 bowls of cereal and somepankcake but without the syrup....

Gastric bypass is not the cure all....there is a reason why you are overeating...and I doubt it is just because you love food that much. Remember nothing tastes as good as BEING HEALTHY feels. What are your hobbies and what do you enjoy? Just because they cut your stomach down to the size of a golfball doesn't help you...you just find something else to get addicted to. I know from the experiece of an friend...who is now an alcoholic. So, just little laps around your house is good. Think small for right now. Thinking of losing hundreds of lbs all at once is so overwhelming you are doomed to failure. Try drinking large glasses of water before you eat your meals. You will find yourself getting much fuller faster and eating less. You are so young to be wasting your life on being overweight. You may think that what your doctor tells you is to scare you , but it is sadly true. YOU HAVE YOUR WHOLE life ahead of you...don't waste it! I used to be very overweight...still have some more to lose, but one summer I went to an amusement park with my friends, and I couldn't fit into harness for the rollercoaster. I was so embarrassed and cried the rest of the day. It was then that I promised myself I would not let my weight stop me from living and I made a commitment to losing weight and getting healthy. Don't let your "love" for food get in the way of your hopes and dreams!!! You never know what kind of life is out there until you start living it!!! Good luck and I would love to be your support!! Reply back if you want it!

I definitely think that the best thing for you would be to look into gastric bypass surgery beacause you might have trouble losing all that weight on your own. The surgery could help you alot... but it depends, can you have it? Talk to your doctor about it and everything, they can't excpect you to do it all on your own, talk it out with your family and your doctor and see what would be best for you. I don't know too much about that surgery so you probably shouldn't really take my advice too much because I don't know much about it... but just talk to your doctor and all that and try to figure something out, what's best for you. Good Luck : )

You really need to cut down on what you eat. Try 1 bowl of cereal every other day and about 5 pancakes the days you don't eat cereal. If you want to lose weight just start walking around the block a couple of times with friends or keep yourself busy with a craft or a game!

I suggest gastric bypass surgery if you are not willing to cut down on the amount of food you eat.
