I am severely overweight and it is causing allot of health issues as well as in the past year I have really started to hate myself and the way I look, I feel like I have lost myself because my face no longer looks like me it just looks like a fat blob on a neck I want to get back to the point of loving myself and how I look. I have tried a few of the fad diets but mostly I just try to reduce the amount of food i eat at one time since i have become diabetic this past February I have been put on a low carb diet, it has helped me lose like 20 pounds but no more I have a hard time doing any exercise because I have a severely torn ligament in my knee and sciatica so movement involving walking is hard to do. I want to get to the point of eating only healthy foods and consistently stick to the low carb diet.

Well, hello mirror. How about going on 100% protein diet for every meal for ONLY 2 weeks ? Exercise can't make you loose weight but it can help shape what you got. So try a push-up. When you can do one go for two! How about for liquids for one month only drink water. After the protein diet try the Mediterranean Diet. Do you have a tread mill if not tac walks / speed walks and then jogs and keep building up distances. Maybe you'll decide to buy a used treadmill.
