I lost 15 pounds by restricting calories, and then I Couldn't lose anymore no matter what I did. So then I went on the atkins diet and lost another 15 pounds... but I'm tired of eating the same old food. At my weight I need about 80 grams of protein a day... I'm thinking of going back on the atkins diet. I was 110 pounds 3 years ago, and even then I was considered over weight by 90% of people... simply because I was really wide.

You are 170
How old and how tall are you?

Whatever you do to lose weight one of the best things you can do is take digestive enzymes because ONE of the reasons so many people are overweight nowadays is because most enzymes that help with digesting your food are cooked out of food in processing it. Also do not eat foods with lists of preservatives and other unnatural ingredients. Chips and snack foods are the worst, but even frozen dinners, prepackaged foods, greasy foods, sugary desserts and fast foods are the worse.

I'm really concerned that you want to weigh 90 lbs.

Unless you are under 5 feet tall, with a small frame, or you're under 12 years old--then 90 lbs is extremely unrealistic.

Have you spoken with your physician about healthy ways to lose weight? Are you exercising regularly? Eating a lot of fruits and vegetables? Drinking a lot of water, and staying away from most other drinks?

I looked it up on wikipedia... Where can I go to purchase digestive enzymes?

Health food stores.
They do not really cause you to lose weight but they help you from being bloated and having days of undigested food built up.

Like Synn said and I asked 90 lbs is a lot of weight depending on your height and age.

Hey N0Help4u~

I was curious, are the digestive enzymes you mentioned similar to the one's that are in the colon cleanse products or is that something totally different?

Some colon cleanse might contain digestive enzymes but the colon cleanse mainly has other ingredients
Colon cleanse has stuff like milk thistle, burdock, clover, slippery elm, probiotics and dandelion

Digestive enzymes contain amylase, protease, lipase, bromelain (pineapple enzyme) and papaya enzymes.

Woa.. 90pounds? Il assume you're a female-

Why.. 90 pounds? You want to be a stick?

How tall are you / age / history of weight?

I don't think you need to lose that much weight ~plus to lose "that much weight" at your "weight" is very unrealistic unless you starve yourself.
