Love is the battery of life....

Hi,


People are different, what works for some doesn't necessarily work for others....  If that diet didn't work for you try others (there are plenty) until you'll find the one that suits you best.  I found that working by goals worked best for me.... The goal I set was only 2 pound a week... easy and normal way to loose weight (provided you don't break it !).
Best regards,

Hi,


I can tell you how I did it: I gave up all what was not really necessary and reduce quantities of reach calories foods:  That ment 4 me: Seeds, nuts, chocolates, less bread, less sweets....  It was much easier than I thought and now I got used to it and my weight is perfect. 
Best regards,

As far as I know Weight Watchers have these points where your food intake and aerobic workout all compute into a set amount of points you're supposed to consume per day (working out increases the number but only on a weekly basis, so be careful).

You should consult your counselor, and see if perhaps you have too many points in your daily intake, and taking one or two off could make all the difference (or adding exercise). Don't do this on your own though, because not having enough points could also lead to a halt in the weight loss.

I suggest that you get your hormone levels checked, if they are all out of balance it can be almost impossible to lose weight.  Susanne Somers has a great book out about naturally balancing hormones.  I find that that helps dramatically!  good luck.
