how do you lose weight?

I'm trying to lose weight up to 85 kg, now my weight is 123 kg

I bought a treadmill on bestshop-usa.com, follow a diet, reduce a portion of food, refused to sweet, fatty, fried, try to do morning and evening exercises. Hope all this will help me
And how do you lose weight?

Dude, pretty much same as you.

But we also had weight loss surgery of various kinds -- gastric bypass, lapband or gastric sleeve.

After surgery, we're eating more Protein than we used to eat, eating protein first, eating healthy veggies, a little fruit, eventually whole grains -- pretty low-cal. Early on post-op, we eat very low-cal for several months. Then we slowly raise the calories so our bodies don't get accustomed to starvation budgets.

We also walk, and just move more than we used to. Many of us use Fitbits or other activity meters. Many of us do strength training. Some run. Some get pretty intense with their exercise, others not so much.

I'd guesstimate that most people here who've had WLS average a couple pounds weight loss a week over the course of their weight loss. The first month patients lose a lot faster than that, but over time it all averages out. By the end of the weight loss period as people near their weight goals, most of us are losing only a pound or half a pound a week.

We take vitamin/mineral supplements. Most people taking heavy-duty blood pressure and diabetic meds don't have to take those meds anymore.

Some of us have underactive thyroids and other obesity-connected comorbidities, conditions or diseases. Others are just "healthy fat people" -- meaning that they haven't YET developed obesity-related diseases.

All of us start out as heavily overweight, obese, morbidly obese or super-morbidly obese. And many of us reach our weight loss goals.

And then we all have (finally!) a fighting chance to maintain our goal weights. On that front, as a group we do a lot better than we did before weight loss surgery.

Good luck to you!
