    When people ask "what's your secret" when asking about my weight loss, I tell them "purging and laxatives" (joking, of course). A few have actually asked what brand of laxatives work the best. Unbelievable. Nobody wants to hear "eat right and exercise". They just assume there's some shortcut or magic pill.

    Totally. Don't you love that look of disappointment that comes over their faces when they ask, "How'd you get into such good shape?" and you say, "By eating less and working hard for a bunch of months." ?? Too funny.

    Thank you Captain Obvious!

    Of all the brilliance in this man's mind and this is the best you've gotten out of it. I was looking for real tips and not just the stuff I already know.

    Boo!

    I can't tell you how many times in the past month I have been asked "Are you losing weight?" I say yes. They say (all excited) How are you doing it?" Then I reply. I eat right and work out hard 6 days a week. The looks on their faces every time is classic. Then they just say "oh". People don't want to hear that it is hard work and a total relationship change with food.

    So true! I know from experience. I've been on countless diets and usually gained some or all the weight back once I went back to eating "regularly". Now that I've been seeing how many calories are actually in the foods I eat and how many I work off during my activities, I can really understand why I gained the wait before. I ate too much of the wrong foods and didn't exercise enough. Simple as that. I plan to keep logging in to MFP until either my mind goes or I'm dead. This is the best way.
