Just Starting Again.....

I have tried to lose weight all my life. I found out that the word DIET has never worked. I have only been on here for a short time and have lost some weight but more importantly I have learned alot and feel healhier. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!:smile:

    You are so right! Diets are temporary...but adopting a healthier range of foods in the right quantities and making that your lifestyle, with more movement, seems to be the magic bullet! I wish you lots of luck!

    Yea I always hated the word diet. I've decided to make a lifestyle change this time and completely make permanent changes and it's working for me as well. Congrats on making a positive change for yourself! :flowerforyou:

    I've lost count of the number of times I've tried to lose weight: a life-long struggle. This time, the key has been diet AND exercise AND a few tweaks to the kinds of food I eat (plus give a lot of credit to MFP and Fitbit). I'm 13 lbs below my Weight Watcher Lifetime Goal (which I set at the highest range I could for my height) and am nearing my "real" goal. Best of luck to you: You can do this!
