Weight control

I agree the Mediterranean diet is healthier than those processed foods (with a lot of bad fat). Our diet always includes fish, meat, legumes, fruit and lots of vegetables. One of the key elements in this diet is the virgin oil, very healthy.

In any case, I insist: always talk to a doctor before starting any diet on your own.
Yes, go your primary doctor (if he/she has a strong interest in dispensing dietary advice). If you're insured, see if you can get a referral to a certified nutritionist or similar.
On your own, the Mediterranean Diet is gaining wide acceptance as a healthy regimen, and as a general rule, avoid highly processed foods. :hug2:

In weight control, the "balancing act" means taking in only as much food and drink as you need to fuel your body's basic functions, the activities of daily living, and exercise. The number of calories needed for energy balance is highly individual, and it changes from day to day depending on your activity level. https://s3.amazonaws.com/subwaysurfers/index.html

You have to find a sport or activity that works for you. Help you keep active even if it is just to improve your health. Another thing is finding a diet or style of eating that works for you. Piece by piece changing your diet and habits in order to make them healthier.
After that the weight should slowly decrease. But I suggest you focus more in improving the way you feel and your well being. -
In my non-expert opinion it makes no sense to just restrict your diet, for two reasons.
- I'm a foodie and I can not stand restricting myself on what I eat and how much I eat
- I find that it is best to emphasize on exercise (whichever fits your individual case, in case you may have injuries etc)
Exercise will make you feel better in general, will make it so that you dont get cramps and body aches as you grow older, etc. Its a win-win really.
