Now that's not to say you can't find a product that can HELP .... like a protein shake to make breakfast really powerful, or a fiber pill that helps you feel full even when you're cutting down the calories ... but we are designed to EAT and what we choose to eat is what will make or break our health. I have to admit, the one part of this equation that I've always resisted is Exercise, but having found something I absolutely LOVE (yay for Hot Yoga!), it's become so much easier to fit regular, pulse-raising, sweat-inducing exercise into my lifestyle. As usual, Ms Holly, you are the voice of reason, experience and sanity in a world of hype, and we all appreciate it!

Oh, I remember those days! I tried those kind of miracles for more than 20 years and I ended up almost 200 lbs, tons of meds, and in very bad health. In 1995, I was "called" to my solution which allows me to eat what I want to eat, stay healthy, and maintain "biceps"!! Anyway, you know my solution and if my products went away, I honestly can say I probably wouldn't be typing this post. Mine was a very serious addiction and scary to think about being addicted to food again. :( Thank you for allowing us to share. Much aloha, Kellie :) Aloha Holly!

We all want to take it off immediately and it's hard to be patient. For me the important first step was to stop think in terms of 'diet' and focus on lifestyle choices.

It seems as most people are so gullible that it is easy for all of these new diets to pop up and make lots of money from the vulnerable. I would love to see an end to our discouragement and disappointment. I don't have many extra pounds to lose but it sure has been difficult trying to lose these same 11 pounds. Hi Holly,

Lost 40 lbs. on Atkins, gained it all back. Lost some weight on Body for Life, gained it all back. I believe there is NO OTHER WAY than the old simple words.....eat healthy, and get a moderate amount of excercise. That's it. No secrets. No miracle pills. Now the trick is to actually DO it. LOL Keep up the great blog posts! Tom Burt Hi Holly,

Full of sodium whether you have an issue or not.. too much of anything isn't good for you. I also recommend that you do lots of veggies and lean protein. The carbs you should avoid are things like rice, bread,potatoes and pasta and cereals ( don't care what they say about Cheerios they aren't good for you)! Veggies and fruit are also carbs but a lo glycemic good choice- so enjoy those! Have you heard of quinoa? Great choice to replace rice. If you have to have bread, get a sprouted grain bread... and nothing with sugar... Perhaps you could prepare some meals at the beginning of the week so that the rest of the week you simply heat up 'Peter Fuller' prepacked made with love gourmet meals when you don't feel like cooking! Thanks so much for stopping by, Peter! I would not do the prepackaged food.. Full of sodium whether you have an issue or not.. too much of anything isn’t good for you.

Feeling in control really is a great feeling! I do believe that eating the 'right' carbohydrates and the right portions is very important... 2 things that our world doesn't always market!!

Good luck with the run! As tough as it may be, focus on the finish without reoccurring injury rather than disappointment with time as you have mentioned!

I find that 4 hours is too long. I need to eat about every 3 hours, if I wait 4 I am usually too hungry and make poorer choices!! Please for your sake get into some exercise! Planning is essential!

Motivate yourself to get it going! My biggest motivator is that fact that I don't want to "not be able" when I get to a certain older age! I want to be mobile and actively mobile at that. I see way too many people who have trouble moving due to excess weight and lack of exercise habits!! Keep focuisng on how good you feel when you are active!
