Then in reality, they go back to their original eating habits and of course they gain it back. The good part about gradually changing your lifestyle to healthier habits is that it becomes the way you LIVE, not a lifeSTYLE. Slow weight loss gives you the time to learn what works and doesn't work for you and find eating and exercising plans that fit with your goals and personality and such.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14578627.post-1140121717858096382006-02-16T12:28:00.000-08:002006-02-16T12:28:00.000-08:00Yep -- read "Intuitive Eating" by Evelyn Tribole. ...Yep -- read "Intuitive Eating" by Evelyn Tribole.

Plus another 5 steps to the kitchen to nuke a couple of burritos for lunch. I was getting soft, and it pissed the Hell out of me. I considered myself a strong person and realized I no longer was. So I started walking a half hour on "lunch". And I lost 7 pounds in 3 months. Which isn't much, but apparently my looks changed enough for friends and family to comment. And THAT is what inspired me to make lifestyle changes to lose weight: the knowledge that it was possible, that I could DO this.<BR/><BR/>I hope that this is his time, that he'll like "the new self" and do what it takes to maintain the 130 pound loss this time.<BR/><BR/>As for a diet that involves chocolate and french fries, check out the <A HREF="http://www.skwigg.com/id76.html" REL="nofollow">Body For Life for Cheaters and Binge Eaters</A> Over at skwigg.

You're the one for me...I love love love you fatty. You're the one for me.<BR/><BR/>Go Bill... but yes, those shakes will probably not work in the long term. But anypoopers - GO BILL! YOU FUCKING ROCK, FATMAN.<BR/><BR/>I've "put it back on" about 3 times, and each of those times was "put it back on and more".<BR/><BR/>But now that I have better physical fitness it's the best it's ever been. Don't get me wrong haters, I am not some kind of sports freak and I will NEVER EVER set foot in a gym. NO WAY. But somehow walking my dog and playing hockey a couple of times a week has made a huge difference in my life. But it took about 5 years to be able to walk more than a km without passing out and having a heart attack-ack-ack-ack-ack-ack-ack...<BR/><BR/>I gotta tell you all again. If you have heard of hoodia, you know what I'm talking about. Look it up. It kills your appetite without making you batshit crazy. Lets you eat less without being hungry.<BR/><BR/>And for the record, I am not a choco person, but I could eat a whole loaf of garlic bread by myself, followed up a few pounds of pasta in some sort of artery-clogging sauce, washed down with a bottle of red wine, followed by a couple of Maralboro Ultra Lites, and don't forget the guacamole muthafukkas.GoBettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02193381184087322141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14578627.post-1140060258700132152006-02-15T19:24:00.000-08:002006-02-15T19:24:00.000-08:00I agree.

I am not into exercise and could not live without chocolate, but in the long run a few calories not eaten here and there add up. <BR/>I still fall for the shake fad diets though and am about to start one in an effort to get the last remaining lbs off. I know, I know....I'm a sucker.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14578627.post-1140058445095999562006-02-15T18:54:00.000-08:002006-02-15T18:54:00.000-08:00Yes, yes, yes!

Each time I've stepped up my exercise routine to lose weight, I've had to permanently commit to exercising at that new level. Each time I've altered my food intake to lose weight, I've had to permanently commit to eating in that new way. I'd say, don't make drastic changes you can't imagine living with for a long time to come. I CAN'T IMAGINE living on shakes for the rest of my life, so forget that one.Regina Rodriguez-Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02955444956174150055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14578627.post-1140045564039751152006-02-15T15:19:00.000-08:002006-02-15T15:19:00.000-08:00I totally agree too.
