How can i help my mum lose weight?

I think this is nice. Its good that you care. My dad has a habit of eating when he is depressed and there has been many traumatic things in my family that have not helped the situation.. I am the cook at my house. So I made sure each night I had a lunch pre-packed for him. I made a salad and added roled cold meat on the side and a bottle of water for him to take to work each morning. (Take the hasle out of preparing meals, if its prepared and its light, theyll eat it.) He would have that for lunch and id have a few fruit in his pack as well just incase he got the munchies during the day. The I always made dinner early. When he got home from work id make sure there was no bread anywhere, I actualy wouldnt let mum buy it.. No bread in the house is good. Cos then there is no use for butter. Have an early healthy dinner prepared and make sure if she needs to pic after that, its things like olives which speed up the metabolism. I suggest no carbs-very low carbs and try to not use much fats in cooking. Portion size is the biggest killer though. If they have a snack handy in between main meals it will speed up there metabolism. and when they finish work, its good to get them to walk.. Jogging is for fitness. Walking uncomftabley fast is for weight loss and fat burning. Walking comftabley wont do much very quickly.. It has to raise the heart rate. My dad lost 8kgs in the first week and in the next 2 lost another 5.. It does work
