im asthmatic and need to lose weight quick

Question
hi,

I'm a 24 year old guy. I've been an asthmatic all my life and i have been over weight all my life but now i have met the woman i want to get married to  and before i get married, i want to look good for her.

could you suggest any ways i would find easier to lose weight than rigorous exercise? as i have said im asthmatic so can't exercise at the gym for too long as i get out of breath very easily.

and what should be in my diet to go with the exercise?

thank you

Hello,

The best and fastest way to lose weight is actually through a controlled diet.  Exercise helps but fear not that you can't exercise vigorously.  Losing weight is 75-80% diet anyway.  

I would suggest going to www.livestrong.com and signing up for a free account.  You can input your weight, height, and goals then each day you log what food you eat.  It will tell you how many calories you can have.  You can also input your exercise and then you will "earn" extra calories back in.  It is the most effective way I have found to lose weight.

As far as exercise goes, I am a big fan of P90X.  My husband lost 40 pounds and put on a TON of muscle.  He has exercise induced asthma and found that it worked for him.  It is mostly weight lifting so it is anaerobic.  Works beautifully.  

You can find more information on P90X and purchase it at:

Congrats on your future marriage and Good Luck,
