Well, thanks to my new friends here on MFP; I now know that there is NO, i repeat NO quick fix to permanent weight los, NONE what so ever, NO way, No how :noway: !
After reading the "Newbies please read" articles, I realized that I had to give my metabolism a chance to get in gear, eat within my calories and goals, and enjoy the ride, because this is no diet, it's a way of life!
For the last 2 weeks I've been searching high and low for a way to melt my love handles and belly before my trip to Cuba (in little over 3 weeks). The thing is, I didn't want to be asked if I was pregnant, like 3 years ago in Dominican Republic, when the clerk at the reservation desk asked jokingly "for 3 persons?!" pointing at my belly when we reserved a table for 2 for dinner :mad: !! I WASN'T pregnant, my daughter was 1 year old!
So, this year I might still look preggo on Cuba's beach :ohwell: , but at least I look like 4 months instead of 6 :tongue: like in last december...
And, I'm gonna keep logging in my food, following my goals, exercise; just that, no weird metabolism switcharoo diet, no "magic" supplements, no frantic posting for quick help :sad: , just log in my food (even when I'm not a good girl :blushing: ), follow my goals, and exercise.
Next trip, I'll be smokin' hot:smokin: :laugh: !!

    Yay!! You will be much happier with a lifestyle change that makes sense than you would be with a "quick fix" that unfixes just as quick!

    Smokin' hotiness is in the head, anyway. All about confidence. :smokin: You're already there.


    And shrug off those people who's mouths are in motion before their brains are in gear.
