It's essential to talk to your doctor to make sure your weight loss program is safe and appropriate for you. In addition to speaking with your doctor, making an appointment to visit a registered dietitian may be a good idea. These nutrition and weight loss experts will be able to guide and teach you about safe and healthy weight loss. If you have 100 pounds of excess weight to lose, you may also be suffering from chronic diseases that are associated with being overweight or obese. Therefore, it's even more important to speak with your doctor about what type of weight loss is appropriate for you. Losing 100 pounds is a big goal and will require you to commit to a weight loss program for an extended period of time. Setting realistic goals is important, especially when you want to lose larger amounts of weight. Losing weight at a faster rate may be unhealthy and unsafe. In addition, it's generally not sustainable long-term and may put you at risk for gaining the weight back. Setting a large, long-term goal is great, but it may be helpful to set smaller goals along the way to help motivate you on your weight loss journey. For example: lose 10 pounds in four to six weeks or lose the first 25 pounds in three months. This is perhaps the most effective change you can make immediately that will help get you started on the road to losing weight. The more tempting food you have lying the house, the more likely it is that you will give in and eat those unhealthy items. Creating a healthy environment at home can help support your weight loss. Toss out any sweets (like cookies, cupcakes or ice cream), chips, crackers and sugary beverages (like soda or fruit juice cocktail). You can also donate unopened items to a local food bank instead of throwing items in the garbage. Think, "out of sight, out of mind." Having these foods out of your house will help you stick to your plan and eat healthier. Getting started on a weight loss plan to lose 100 pounds will require you to re-think your meals. Spending a few hours reworking your weekly meal plan can help give you the framework for a healthy diet. Consult with a registered dietitian to ensure that your meal plan is also safe in regards to your medical history. Start with one week of meals. Include all breakfasts, lunches, dinners, snacks and sugar-free beverages. If you're following a particular calorie range, be sure to add in the calories for each meal and snack to make sure you're staying within your predetermined range. After a few weeks, you may be able to be less detailed with your meal plan especially if you get into the groove of healthy, easy meals that you enjoy. If you notice yourself getting bored with your meals, revisit your meal plan and change it up. Don't fall off track out of boredom. Find new, healthy recipes to keep you on track.

The biggest way people end up overspending at the grocery store is inadequate planning. Before you go to the supermarket, take stock of what you already have. According to a study by the National Resource Defense Council, Americans typically end up throwing out 25% of the groceries they buy. You can prevent this wastefulness by taking stock of your pantry and fridge before making a trip to the grocery store. Find items that are about to expire and move them towards the front of the fridge or pantry. Make a note on your calendar or in your kitchen to use these items for meals in the next few days. Do this at least once a week to prevent wastefulness and save money on food. You should always make a list before you go shopping. Impulse buys can add up over time, resulting in you spending a lot more than you intended. You should also make sure to be careful when you shop. Avoid shopping hungry or stressed and review purchases when the shopping trip ends. In addition to making a list, try to schedule you're shopping as well. Aim to only shop once a week, as this encourages you to use the food you have rather than going out and buying more unnecessarily. Review your receipt when you're doing shopping and circle the items you spend the most money on. Consider what you could substitute for certain pricey items and what items you could go without. The day of the week you go shopping can actually make a difference. Aim to shop mid-week, preferably on a Wednesday. Food tends to reach its "sell-by" date midweek, so you're likely to find items marked down on Wednesdays or Thursdays. Stores also add weekly deals and Wednesdays, but are also likely to honor the previous week's deals. This means Wednesdays are a great day to try to double up on coupons or sales. When planning your weekly meals, do so around what items are on sale. It might be a good idea to make a list around sales prices and then meal plan. That way, you will not be tempted to include unnecessary items that are not marked down to complete a recipe. You will have to work with what you have. You can also shop and then meal plan. Many websites allow you to type in a list of ingredients you have and then offer you a variety of recipes you can use. Some items are cheaper if you buy them in bulk. If there's anything that won't go bad too quickly, see if the store offers specials if you buy in bulk. Make sure you're really getting a deal, however. Many bulk prices actually come out to about how much you would spend on an individual item. Do a quick calculation in your head or on your phone to make sure buying multiple items is actually cheaper. Some stores will offer a small discount if you buy an entire case of a product.

While anyone can wear white, pairing your unique skin tone with the right shade of white can help you pull off the look even better. If white makes your skin look drab, gray, or sallow, you might be wearing the wrong shade. Here are the shades of white that are most recommended for different skin tones: Fair skin will look the best with warm whites. You should avoid stark whites, as they will only wash you out. If you have an olive complexion, you should consider a cool white to help balance things out. Champagne, rum, and silk white will also work. Medium complexions with pink or blue undertones should consider creamy ivories and whites. These will keep you from looking too rosy or flushed. If you have a dark complexion, you are in luck: you can wear any shade of white. Dark complexions with olive undertones should avoid yellow or ivory shades of white, however. White dresses come in all sorts of materials, from breezy cotton and linens to heavier wools and crepes. While a flowing, white maxi dress would look wonderful at the beach or at a picnic, it would not be appropriate for the office; a dress made from wool or crepe would be more suitable and professional. Choose a simple bra and pair of underwear, without any lace, beading, or other embellishments. Match the color to your skin tone as much as possible. Avoid wearing other colors, including white. Colors, patterns, and textures will all become visible under your dress. Tuck your hand into the dress. If you can see your hand, then you will need to wear a nude slip with the dress. Choose a plain slip that is a few inches/centimeters shorter than your dress. Even if you are wearing nude undergarments, a sheer dress will still show off too much of your figure. A slip will help make everything look smoother.
