    hi there

    I have the perfect solution for you here.set up a blog by going to blogger.com or wordpress.com they are free.load up your pictures and make posts to the blog on a regular basis everyday explaining the exact methods used to lose the weight and the diet and all the particulars then also sign up to google adsense which is a publisher program google offers.Its free to sign up to and if you choose blogger threy show you how to do all of this .Then you place some advertiser code onto the blog,again blogger will help here and every time someone clicks on one of your ads you will get paid.How much you get paid depends on many things but it could be anywhere form 10c to $4.00 per click.then to promote the blog use social bookmarking sites like del.ici.us and others to let people vote on the popularity of your blog.this will bring traffic and people ,some of who will click on the ads and you will get paid by google.a word of caution here make sure you read googles terms and conditions first though.

    This is a system I use to make money and promote my online ventures and it sounds to me that you have an incredible story to tell and blogging is the best forum to do it in.

    good luck.

    WOW! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

    How did you lose the weight? I would recommend that you contact the doc who did the surgery, the person who designed your fitnes/diet program, or the company who makes the drugs/supplements you used (I don't know which since you didn't say).

    If others were involved in your dramatic weight loss, then I am sure they would love some recognition for their part in helping you. Kudos to you for wanting to recognize them, and I think you DO deserve a little recognition (and $$) for sharing your success with others. I am sure you would be very inspirational to others who are in your former situation. Maybe you could start your own small business, working with a fitness trainer and dietician, helping others shed the pounds. The sky is the limit! You already know you are capable of doing almost anything you set out to do. If you need help finding the way, contact Oprah or Dr. Phil through their websites. They love stuff like this.

    Take care and best wishes~

  • Did you have bariatric surgery? That is a lot to lose. The challenge is keeping it off. Best way for you to make money is to keep it off. Then you can get a good job and make lots of money. If you gain it back, you lose. Sometimes weightwatchers and weight-loss programs have counselors who have lost weight.

    If you sold yourself as having lost weight using a product or program you didn't use, that would be false advertising, wouldn't it?

    Is that even possible???? If I was 200 pounds overweight I'd lose the weight just to reduce my risk of diabetes or heart disease or other health diseases and not worry about making the money. But now you should save money on you're grocery bill because you're not eating as much as you used to.

    Music enables you to eat more. According to a study by the journal Psychology as well as Marketing, soft, classical tunes encourage you to take time over your meal, so you consume more food. So, switch off – silence will make you more aware of what you’re putting in your mouth.

    Do your food shopping with a list and a period of time limit; that way, you're less likely to stray into the highly processed foods section.

    Obtain smaller plates. Little crockery means portion control is quite a bit easier – those diminutive parts suddenly look huge and you’ll be happier to consume less.

    It’s Friday brunch time and you simply can’t stop going back pertaining to seconds. But hang on! Stop to get a minute and suck on another strong mint. The flavour can put you off that finally plate of chicken korma/roast beef/sushi medley.
