Thanks

HI there,
An exercise physiologist will be able to talk to you about specific exercises however it is really about getting moving and burning calories in a way that is accessible and enjoyable to you.
In order to lose weight it is more about what you are eating, how much and often the timing of eating- that is if you are skipping meals, eating later at night..
In order to lose weight quickly you could see an Accredited Practising Dietitian (APD) who may suggest a VLED (very low energy diet) depending on your current weight and any health problems.
Alternativley an APD will talk to you about how to decrease your calorie/energy intake from the food you are eating.
The most effective means of weight loss is to combine a calorie reduced diet with exercise and some behaviour change counselling.
Good Luck!

Fast weight loss is not recommended for health and wellbeing.
It is usually not sustainable and the methods used to achieve this rapid weight loss are usually extreme. A weight loss of approximately 1/2-1Kg per week is within the safe range. It is better to seek guidance and achieve a weight loss speed that is appropriate for your body type, current health status and lifestyle.
