I have a lot of weight loss work online - you can find me searching fitinfun. But my general advice is: remove toxins out of your food, boost the nutrition of your food, (no empty calories) exercise 1 hour daily - everyday; plenty of non-toxic liquids, and enough sleep. As long as I do that - I do fine. I found it very difficult to find nutritious food in the stats and very easy here in SE Asia :) I will be so happy to read of your travels - I love to see how other people do it too :)
