    Applauding! Thank you for such a straight forward, common sense message. There is no such thing as a quick fix. This has to be a lifestyle change. You lose weight the same way you put it on ... ONE POUND AT A TIME. Diets do not work. That is why the diet industry is a multi-billion dollar business and we as a nation are becoming increasingly obese.

    Thanks for posting this!

    Great post. I agree. Now, if you'll excuse me I need to get back to my hcg mixed with shakeology while I play with my shake weight to prep for my water, soup, banana and milk day fast. Thank you.

    I had the "safer" weight loss surgery and it almost killed me. Shortcuts don't work and they can even be seriously dangerous to your health.

    Now, whenever I see someone ask "should I have the gastric bypass or the lapband?" I say....

    Personal Trainer. :drinker:

    OP, thanks for saying what's been on my mind!!!

    I LOVE what you say in healthy lifestyle choices........today I just witnessed a wound dressing change for a man who's a diabetic...and just had 2 fingers removed due to gangrene, one of the complications of diabetes, and of VERY UNHEALTHY LIFESTYLE CHOICES !!
    People need to realize that now before it's too late........
    thanks for the reminder PBT :)

    I have lost 450 pounds on the monkey poo diet. But, my monkey died, so I gained back some of the weight. Got a new monkey for Christmas and I'm already down over 50 pounds. IT WORKS!:tongue:

    PatientBearTiger I think you are are right on the money there with what you've said. There is no other way just consistency in exercise and nutrition all your life.

    So true and great post. If short cuts worked then there shouldn't be people on MFP who used them!

    Spending 15 nights in the rain forest eating nothing but monkey poo and rainwater doesn't work.
    I beg to differ. That 16th night was a turning point for me. Perhaps if you had been a tad more committed?
