Why didn't I do this sooner??

Why didn't I do this sooner, is exactly what I said this morning when I weighed myself!

Screw diet pills, shots and fasting!

Been wasting money, time and energy on these things just to lose a few pounds!

Now nearly 4 years later not only am I not skinnier but I am actually about 40 pounds heavier and out about $2500 dollars easy!!! Just 3 days into a new way of life with basic diet and exercise and already I am feeling better, sleeping all night, losing weight and have energy to spare!

Duhhhhh!!! :glasses:

    AMEN, I AGREE, I HAVE TRIED EVERY DIET UNDER THE SUN, BOOT CAMPS,AND DIET PILLS, I HAVE HAD SOME SUCCESS. BUT THIS IS FREE AND I AM DOING IT ALL ON MY OWN. THRU SOME OF THESE FADS I HAVE DEVELOPED SOME GOOD HABITS AND I AM SURE IT IS AIDING ME IN SOME WAY! SO DON'T FEEL TO BAD! I JUST THINK THIS IS MORE REALISTIC TO MAINTAIN,.... GOOD LUCK!!

    I'm right there with you. I've lost more weight in the past two weeks than in the past 5 years, trying different diets and tracking methods. From Weight Watchers to diet pills, MFP is by far the best thing I've ever found. So much support from everyone!
