You force yourself to eat fruits and vegetables. Yogurt is always good. Grapes, apples, etc…
Work vegetables into food, you cant even taste them. Like on pizza.
If your sitting there watching tv, you can work out your abs, by doing crunches, or bridges.
For your chest and triceps, you can do push ups.
Be active with your kids. Go out, bike, rollerblade, play basketball, etc…

You are going to work out at home. You dont have to deal with the gym. I suggest some functional training ideas. Buy some cheap dumbells 10-20 lbs should do initially. A fitness ball is also needed and some rubber resistance bands. These are also inexpensive.
Pushups,Squats, body weight exercises that are FREE and you can do them while hanging out of watching tv. Checkout the book I listed below on AMAZON.com. It is escatly what you need.
The diet is another thing. There is some dietary advice in the core book. You will need to change your eating habits to see real changes. In 12 weeks of 30 mins-1 hour a day you will see some changes!
Good luck
robert

If you truly, honestly, whole-heartedly can’t find any time to exercise, then I suggest you cutback on your junk food eating habits, such as soda and candy, chips and cookies, etc. If you eat bread, try avoiding white, and go for whole grains. Drink water regularly instead of soda, as mentioned above. Eating salads with dressing isn’t bad at all, because you do need SOME fat in your diet. Don’t over drizzle the dressing though, because the point of salad dressing is to work in conjunction with the various vegetables and fruits inside your bowl. If all you taste is dressing, then you know you have went overboard.
If you have kids, perhaps you can spend time with them playing around. Anything is better than sitting around watching T.V. or using a computer, though you still burn calories in that way. If you truly can’t spend time with your kids playing around, or perhaps they are still to little, then use the above advice.
Just remember that, once they get to an age where you can spend time with them, instill into them to be active, instead of being a couch potato. Though that may be years from now, or sooner than you’d expect, it’ll benefit you as much as them if you become active along with them.

Try using protein shakes. They supplement or replace meals and help build muscle and reduce body fat. However, they can taste a lil bland , but you can add toppings to your liking.
One thing though, if you don’t eat enough vegies, your body will deplete in certain vitamins and nutrients and you may become fatigued, moody etc Regardless of how much you hate vegies, you should bite the bullet.

Do you have a lunch break at work? You can walk on your lunch. It may not be a big workout but it’s still a workout. Or how about going for walks after work with the family. Try to make your workout family oriented, like walking, bike riding, swimming, playing at the park. It’s not a hard strenuous workout, but it’s still exercise, and it lets you spend quality time with your family.
If you like raw carrots, eat raw carrots. If you like other veggies with dip, like celery or cucumbers.. and you know dip is bad for you… buy fat free cottage cheese, put it in the blender until smooth, and mix it with a pack of hidden valley ranch dip mix. Let it sit in the fridge over night, and it makes a great fat free dip with only 80 calories in 1 cup. You could put this on your salad as well. Have you tried vegetable juices? A lot of people don’t like veggies, but they can drink things like V-8

Permanent weight loss is acheived through burning more calories than you consume. If you have limited time to exercise you’ll have to maximize your efforts by eating well, lean meats, quality carbs (whole grains, no refined sugar white bread products) and fresh fruits and whatever veggies you can tolerate. At work, take the stairs, walk around your bldg. at lunch, park farther away, do whatever you can to increase your activity level. Good luck to you!

You don’t need a gym to work out, go for a run. Whether you like vegetables or not you have to eat healthy. If you can’t make small sacrafices then you arent that serious about losing weight.
