It's very confusing, isn't it? I have just decided to ask God what HE wants me to eat. I can get carried away with all these radical diets. I lost 45 pounds once doing just vegetables. But I ended up with horrendous gall bladder problems that haunted me for years. I don't know if that was to blame but it did coincide with it. Our bodies can tell us what we need to eat. The problem is we all eat too much of it. Portion control is the most important thing to consider, IMHO. Eating between meals is bad, too, but I need to have a snack to keep my blood sugars level. When you have diabetes or other chronic ailments, the playing field is no longer level and these things have to be taken into consideration. I used to live to eat. Now I eat to live.

My mom used to quote Weight Watchers....." They would say Food should be the last thing on your mind".....I think for me excercise is the key and I'm not the big 2 hour a day walker anymore....When I first started walking I lost 11lbs....then after awhile I wasn't loosing anymore weight and just got bored....Now I went out at got a "gazelle"....I use it but it's looking more like a piece of furniture every day....Well good luck to you......Here come the holidays so enjoy......
