Weight Loss Suggestions?

The only 'diet' i've ever had a significant amount of success with was South Beach.

However, now I find it 10 times more difficult to stick with it, with working full time, school full time AND planning a wedding.

Has anyone had any success with other plans? Any advice for me?

I can admit it! These days the willpower is so SO low

I honestly haven't tried any of these myself...
BUT I have heard great things about the South Beach Diet and Weight Watchers!!!

I tried weight watchers a couple years ago. I lost a little weight. It has to be for you though. I couldn't eat that much food. Now I just count calories, and eat a whole bunch of little things throughout the day and a lot of veggies. Soon I'll start actually working out, but for now...this is working for me.

My doctor told me that in order to loose weight it's important to eat less! Working out helps speed up your metabolism and tones you but in terms of calories in vs. out you need to watch what you eat. Weight Watchers allows you to eat what you want as long as you count it toward your points values. If meetings aren't for you they have an online option.

Ok i am not saying the others dont work bc i dont know...but i suggest just working out more and eating healthier food and smaller portions...Do alot of research on what effects different foods have on your body.

FInd foods that are healthy and you enjoy eating.

You just have to remember it can't just be a diet, it has to be a lifestyle change

But thanks for the advice.

I have tried atkins, south beach, working out more, and weight watchers.

Weightwatchers worked the best for me because i was able to eat anything i wanted in moderation. I was even able to save all those flex points for the weekend, if i knew i had a party or something coming up, so i would stay on points and not go over. I did it (with online membership, last January lost 15 pounds. I gained it back after i went on vacation in the summer (i thought it was an all inclusive free for all even when i came home, lol) But i'm back on WW now and i have lost 7 pounds so far. Good Luck!!!

I think they all work if you stick to it. But really if you're losing weight it really means you're using more calories than your eating. If you work out you boost your metabolism and use even more calories!

I've been thinking about that lately! When one of my friends mentioned the Every 3 hour idea..

Is this something you thought of on your own??

Thank you!
