      More seriously, the only way of losing weight is by reducing your calorie intake and focus on proteins rather than carbs.

      I personnaly live on a high protein diet.
      My motto is to never refrain from eating meat, fish, seafood.
      I just avoid porc as it's high in fat.

      Complement it with reasonnable portions of rice, or rice noodles (avoid egg noddles -> the yolk is very high in fat), and veggies.

      Eat fruits in moderation as they contain sugar! They are very healthy but not if you start munching 10 apples a day.
      Refrain to 3 pieces of apples, pears, and berries.

      If as I suspect, you are lunching mainly on sandwiches, then avoid white bread at all cost and go for the wholemeal option. Prawns and tuna sandwiches are a must, if they are not full of mayonnaise (which you should NEVER eat).

      May I ask why exercise is not an option with you?

        Black and Decker circular saw applied to the top of your least favourite leg at an angle of 90 degrees.

        No actual exercise and a significant reduction in body weight.

            You might want to have a look at the Blood Type Diet.
            Some say it works terrific other that it's full of tulip.

            Basically if you are:

            O: unlimited proteins, no carbs at all, few low in fiber veggies (carrots, cabbage)
            A: Veggie
            AB: balanced omnivore

            I think it's kindof full of rubbish but I like the history behind.

            Blood type O individuals inherit their immune system directly from the cavemen -> hunters and protein feeders
            Blood Type A individuals started to appear in Asia 15-20 thousand year ago when some tribes started to live mainly on crops and agriculture.

            Apparently AB is the most "modern" type of immune system

            Interesting, innit?

              I would double in weight if I did that.

                    Yup. Worked for me - about 1lb a week. Got me down from 100kg to 85. But I couldn't resist the call of the beer, got cravings for bread,and bounced back to 90. I've maintained that for few years now. When we have a Sunday roast I now pile on the meat and only have a couple of roast potatoes.

                    If you have a high protein lunch, you'll feel less sleepy in the afternoon than if you have a high carb lunch.

                      The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                      But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”
