Hmmmm. My input? Of course, you have to watch what you eat. Drink lots of water--it is good for you and helps you feel full. Eat your vegies first. Eat slow so your body registers that you are full before you quit eating. And it isn't always what we eat, it is what we eat with it. I love asparagus. But it is so much better with gobs of hollandaise sauce. Lobster is better dipped in butter. Baked potato is better with cheese and sour cream...
Exercise is really good, but I know that going to the gym isn't for everyone. But you can get exercise in soooo many ways.
1. Park at the end of the lot and walk to the store.
2. Suck in your gut every time you come to a stop (light/sign)--and hold it until you forget.
3. Take the stairs instead of the elevator.
Course I say all that. The other day we had a thread like this? I was all excited about losing 25 pounds over here? And someone said they had blossomed all the way up to a 14 and were now back to a 6 or 8 or something? I am thrilled to be back to a 14! Course at 5'10" that isn't so bad, really, still I would love to lose another 15 pounds. . .but, alas, I am going back to the land of temptation with a husband who loves to eat!
