Okay my butt is not quite that big but I can see its getting that way. I really want to lose some weght not lots just some I weigh 149 pounds/68 kilograms. I would like to lose about 13 kilograms/25 pounds. Can anyone recommend a diet that is simple and easy to follow. Has anyone else got any experience of a diet that works for them? IP: Logged |

You could try the color diet recommeded in Star Signs. If that is not your scene and if you are not adverse to a bit of exercise I always mention Windsor Pilates 'cause when I did it, it really worked. Well... it started to, if I hadn't quit after a week and a half I might have had more results. They have a twenty minute workout that I did everyday and within a week I noticed all - over results even my face. But I think that the best way to begin to lose weight is drinking so much water. All water, no desserts and since you are doing that, eat whatever you want for meals as long as you don't stuff yourself to the point that you can't get up from the table. That had worked for me once upon a time too. ------------------ Get some love in your groove, just get hip to forgive... - Michael Franks IP: Logged |

Portion control is best. Don't deny your body just watch how much you eat. Don't eat late. I try not to eat after six unless I'm going out or entertaining. Water and movement are also important. Gia IP: Logged |

Love that noreenz! Worth doing though - I take it you're giving up smoking with that workout routine?Once again the best advice - Pilates, water, portions, eating times, exercise & humour ------------------ "Love, not learning finds the way, Opens the eyes to the Doors of the Day, Uncovers the wonders of undreamed sights, And leads the way to the Wisdom Lights."

I just had to say that I agree entirely with the suggestion for Winsor Pilates. It is the absolute best, and you do begin to see results quickly. I not only noticed that I was getting slimmer when I started, but I was also more flexible. I couple it with a brisk 30 min walk beforehand whenever I can. I've also tried cutting portions down and eating more often ... like grazing, I guess. So I'm never really super hunry ... and that way I don't over-eat or eat too fast. Also, lots of water is vital to me. Juice and tea are secondaries and, every now and then, I'll have some coffee. A treat now and then is certainly encouraging, too. Like made from scratch brownies. Geez, I've been slacking off for a little while now ... thanks for helping me remember how much I love Pilates.

Thank you all for the input!!! I do Pilates already and really enjoy it. I probably do need to eat smaller portions. I'm quite pleased because I have started to shift some weight from the right placesIP: Logged |

I have found that eating sensibly, eating whole grains and eliminating dairy fats and then just keeping regular fats to a minimum is working on me. In fact Im looking forward to my annual next month becasue I know I've lost weight and I will be getting on the scale there. I probably have another 10 lbs to lose.IP: Logged |
