Love this article because the author states twice that the best method to losing weight is the old fashioned way - reduce calories and exercise more....

    EXACTLY what I'm thinking too! I LOVE that it's completely free, cuz I'm like the most "frugal" (OK, CHEAP!) person that you'll ever meet!

    Well, my veggies are costing a ton of money ($20 for an eggplant, two summer squashes, a 1lb bag of cherry tomatoes, two onions, a 8oz box of whole mushrooms, and three bags of lettuce mixes), but I will eat every last scrap. That, and my gym membership here at work at $15 a month, I'd say I was getting off pretty cheaply. I knew a long time ago that there is no such thing as 'instant weight loss' or miracle fixes. Caveat emptor indeed.
