    I lost weight once just tracking calories (No less than 1,000 and no more than 1,200) - limiting my fat gram intake to 25 or less per day... drinking two tall sports bottles of water each day- making sure I ate three times a day- and took a daily vitamin- it was a weight loss "program" called Prism.

    I was 25.... and I lost 65lbs in about 5-6 months....

    Would that work for me now at 39? NO. Would I recommend such a diet to anyone like this? No.....

    Healthy diet and exercise are essential and will give you the results you need if you keep doing them both... Is there a reason you think you can't work out any more?

    Welcome to MFP. Personally I have lost weight in the past by just eating a lower amount of calories but I always put the weight back on again xxx
