I do know that "food combining" will help you lose weight. I'm doing it for other reasons, and have dropped weight.
Basically, you don't eat proteins at the same time as carbs. Eat fruit by itself.
Wait 2 hrs after eating protein and vegetables before eating any carbs like potatoes and rice, etc.
Also... eliminate sugar... which you should be doing anyway.
Google "food combining." Happy weight loss!

Rather than focus on loosing weight, I find it more effective to focus on eating healthfully - and eating enough to fuel your body as it heals. Be careful not to loose weight too fast but sometimes if we make simple adjustments and add a little more movement - but only what you can safely do - that may be enough to tip the scales back in our favor.
The book, The Potbelly Syndrome (I think that's the title) . . .you can find it at Amazon, by a MD in Europe.
He has great ideas and also links obesity to chronic infections such a lyme. So, I'd say get his book, see what he has to say and then it may be much easier. He says that when the infections clear, the weight will, too (as long as one is mindful to eat well).
Amazon also has many customer reviews that you can search. I'd post the link, but am on a foreign computer that is very reluctant.
Also, you might want to search out a particular seaweed that helps burn the right kind of fat.
There is also a great article on it at www.vrp.com just this past two weeks. It also has many other effects in healing.
Search for articles at vrp for the term "stem cells" and the article - and correct spelling - will come up. I tried to copy and paste, but I'm used to a mac and am on a PC and it's just too hard.
I've not researched it extensively, but it is on my list of things to learn more about. I'd say, if you read all about it and decide to give it a try, start slowly and not too late in the day. It is not supposed to be stimulating, but lyme patients often have excessive reactions to --
If you are not already gluten-free, that may help to reduce a lot of puffiness. And, of course, be sure to drink water and, if you can get massage, that helps the toxins move out. Much of weight gain has to do with inflammation from infection and from toxic buildup.
