I'm just curious if any of you do anything else besides counting calories/exercise to lose weight. I need all the tips I can get! Not interested in supplements though. Thanks!

    What works for me is thinking of it simply.

    Eat Less
    Move More

    Find something you love to do that is physical! Walk, shop, swim, go to the beach, canoe, hike, and my favorite...have lots of great sex! That works too!:blushing:

    My top tip: Set your macros right. Hit them daily :]

    1g of pro per lb of lean body mass
    .35x body weight for g of fat
    rest in whatever(more of the above or carbs)

    Not to be repetitive, but high protein/high fiber. In addition to that, I weigh & measure everything! Portions sizes can be deceiving.

    Second tip: Do what works for you. Don't make changes that are just going to make things more difficult.
    Skip breakfast if you want, eat 2 giant meals or 10 tiny ones. Doesn't matter as long as you are comfortable with it and it is easiest for you to stick with!

    I don't diet. I eat healthy. I don't go to the gym. I go to the health club. When it doubt, walk it out.

    Might as well do 3 tips xD

    Strength train. This will NOT bulk you up. It will result in a more favorable body composition at your goal weight as well as other health benefits. Lift heavy - not 5lb weights with endless reps!

    drink a glass of water before your meal and then one after. If you can't finish the second glass you've eaten too much!
