I wouldn't even know where to start...buying, taking, etc...I'm such a dork. I'm like Michael Bolton and Samir in Office Space when they have to look up money laundering in the dictionary. :lookaroun

Don't you have to go into the inner city and find the guy with the trench coat? :lookaroun

That would be my guess anyways... :lol:

Alright folks, I need help. Has anyone ever done a particular diet that has worked really well for them? I don't need anything drastic-just something that is healthy that will help me drop a few. HELP!!! :wave:

For a quick fix, low carbing. But after I while I found myself getting tired, so I switched to low fat - I picked a figure of mostly eating products less than about 5% fat.

The other thing I did that really helped was exercise with a heart rate monitor which allows you to work out your maximum fat burning zone, which is actually a relaxing pace that allows you to work out for longer. All that "no pain, no gain" malarkey does not apply to weight loss exercise. So I have a ski machine that I plop in front of the TV and do the work outs whilst watching DVDs. I lost over fifty pounds in two years between the low carbing and low fat with exercise.

It's a balmy 37 here, but that's great compared to my daughter's place in Maine (UMF), where they had snow the other night. Can't wait to leave for FL tomorrow, even though it's just for the weekend.

Oh my! :eek:

Enjoy the good weather while it lasts. Its actually getting colder her. The temp has dropped 5 degrees since 5:30am. :(
I'm trying not to run the furnace any more than I have to because natural gas prices have gone sky high.

How is the new job going?

Thanks! :wave: I've tried the low carb thing before. I didn't do too badly-although those first two weeks were tough and I was a heinous b*tch to anyone who ate any kind of bread, cracker, sugar, fruit or CRUMB in front of me. I decided maybe that one wasn't for me. :lol: I wish there was an all-carb diet that somehow allowed me to be thin, and if I'm wishing here, maybe it could make me tall and I could wear a tiara, too?? :veryconfu :lookaroun

I did not do Atkins. I stopped eating bread, rice, spuds and pasta. But still had carbs for breakfast and ate many types of fruit and veg. But ultimately, after three months I was feeling drained. I did two stints before going for low fat - which allows carbs :D

I'm sure that as well as not eating junk the exercise with the heart rate monitor made the big difference.
