I find it interesting to read about the weight struggle many of us have or had. Diets are unique and dieters have to work something out that is useful to them. No diet pills or fad diets as they do not last. First thing to do each morning, before putting on any clothes, is to weigh yourself and note the lbs on a daily chart. I use a calander and total the entries for each variation at the end of the month. Keeps me honest. To start any diet, keep a list of everything eaten in a day, figure the calories, and adjust accordingly. Recognize your pitfalls and be sensible about food choices. Every day, exercise. In a gym or walk and exercise at home. Or both. You will begin to feel and look better very shortly and do not have to wait until you have reached a goal. Make note of the things that help you and those that do not. I yoyod for years and have kept my present, correct, weight for ten plus years. I do not track what I eat but I also do not crave the carbs that once did me in. Over time your body adjusts and you are healthier for paying attention to what you eat. Holding myself accountable helped me and now I do not have to think about it. I Indulge on weekends but that is self limiting as I just do not want more.
