Best way to lose weight?

Question

Okay I’ve seriously got to lose weight. What is the best way? Keto? What even is that? Low carb? Low calorie? I weigh 240lbs and I’m 5’10”. I wanna get back down to 170-180 I think I would be happy at that weight. I’m so tired of feeling disgusted when I look in a mirror and I don’t want my kids growing up having a fat mom. Help please anyone. I started working out a few weeks ago and was doing really well but then I just quit. It’s so hard to find time with a toddler and a baby. But I just have to cause I’m tired of hating my body. Any help would be appreciated please.

Saaaame. 
Keto is low carb, high fat. I did it for a month last year and lost 5lbs. It wasn’t super hard and I never felt hungry. It’s really hard to be consistent tho because you can’t cheat or it bumps you out of ketosis (fat burning state). :/ 
I’m currently just working on my overall health (eating more veggies, taking probiotics, gonna restart my progesterone supplement to balance my hormones) and trying to exercise once or twice a week.  I’m reading up about the GAPS diet.

I put 4 main tips below but basically you want to focus on improving your daily habits. Start with your eating habits, then incorporate more when you’re ready. It’s not a race. You didn’t get to your current size overnight and you won’t get to your goal overnight. It takes time, consistency, patience and forgiveness. 
Tip#1 Get your nutrition in check first. Don’t restrict yourself to some super low calorie or carb diet. When you keep yourself in a deficit for an extended amounts of time, your body will adapt and it eventually lands up doing more harm than good. Just focus on eating REAL foods. Things without a label. Things that grow, walk or swim on the earth. Choose organic produce- at least for the dirty dozen. Pastured raised eggs-if you enjoy eating eggs. Grass fed meat- used as a condiment. Wild caught fish- low in mercury. The key is to build your meals around the veggies (not the meat), choosing things you personally enjoy, and then chew the meal slowly. Ditch anything processed and keep your sugars to a minimum. Drink water to stay hydrated.
Tip#2 Start walking. Start with just ten minutes if you have to. Add another ten minutes the next week. Just build up at a pace you can maintain. Then incorporate some cardio. Cardio will be your friend but don’t rely on it more than nutrition. Use it as additional fat burn support. You want to continuously change up your cardio to keep your body guessing and pulling energy from every fat storage deposit it has. This is more important when you get down to the more stubborn areas but you get the idea.
Tip#3 Weight train when you’re ready. Focus on multi-joint movements. There’s thousands of variations but the basic movements are chest presses, shoulder presses, rows and pull-downs for upper body then squats, lunges, deadlifts and step-ups for lower body. Everything can be done at home with a resistance band, bodyweight, maybe a dumbbell and a little creativity. There’s plenty of workouts you can follow on YouTube if the creativity doesn’t come at first. There’s also whole exercise directory on ExRx.net that can be super helpful when you’re looking to target a particular muscle and just can’t think of the best movement for it. Hip thrusts are best for the booty if you’re concerned with that. If you need to be easy on joints, do the exercises in water to alleviate some pressure. 
Tip#4 Recognize and accept that motivation will always fluctuate and you will have setbacks. Create a system to keep yourself disciplined and accountable in these moments. Always, always remember that long term results come from long term habits. So when you feel like you want to give up, remind yourself that it’s not a temporary thing you’re suffering through, it’s your life, your lifestyle, you have the power of creating it to be however you want it be, and the only temporary thing is your excuses.

Answer

I think whole 30 and fast metabolism diet are wonderful tools to educate you about food as fuel and how sugar, additives and preservatives work against your system. With good based knowledge you can make decisions on what works best with your lifestyle to eat healthier....which is most people’s biggest battle.

Answer

Eat less/walk more. No processed foods, stick to fresh lean meats and fruits and veggies.

Answer

I am a fitness instructor and also teach nutrition classes, Start with buying a smaller plate train to eat smaller portions, balanced diet of lean meat,  veg and small portion of carbs(dont cut anything out ur diet because when u go back to eating it u will only gain weight back... ie dont cut carbs) rice, pasta etc 40-80g per portion, eat 3 healthy balanced meals a day with two small portions of  heathy snacks in between, also exercise is a must, even if its just a swim or a walk to start with then a mix of cardio and light weights when u feel ready ... small steps each week will give u long term results, it takes time and perseverance but it will be worth it, and if one day u fall off the wagon dont let it dishearten you, just get on  track the following day

Answer

Keto is NOT healthy for you. 
The only way to lose weight is to cut calories. Thats how all these others diets work, they cut your calorie intake. Just cut valories and youll lose weight.
