Hello. smile.gif

I was just wondering what your guy's/girl's thoughts and methods for losing weight are.
Anything that has helped you?
I'm not overweight I'm at a perfect weight for my age, but I'm just curious.
Thanks! biggrin.gif

Umm... I don't. I weigh something in the order of 100lbs (but I'm only 5 feet tall!), or a bit less (according to my phone's conversion feature), and I've been warned by my doctor that if I lost more weight it would be positively unhealthy. Seeing your ribs when you stretch is normal, damn! tongue.gif

I've always been on or around the underweight/normal weight line edge, and I go through (like most people! At least I hope so!) this weight fluctuation throughout the year which increases around Christmas and tapers off afterwards, only to quickly go up again next Christmas smile.gif

I imagine the best way of losing weight would be the oldie - eat less and exercise more! I've seen my friends do everything from corsets to carrot sticks (which are pretty yum, actually). But it's mostly the determination to actually keep on going that sheds the pounds, I guess, I've seen a few of them triumphantly step off the scales and maintain their new weight for all of a week before they leave off the exercise and start getting big again.

I lost 10lbs last August through pure laziness... too lazy to cook/go to the store. It's probably not the healthiest way to lose weight but eh, it works. Just keep a good stock of healthy snacks (ones you'll actually eat, not weird hippie-health-store stuff that makes your stomach turn) and only buy junk food in single sized portions so it's not laying around the house. Easiest weight loss & maintenance program I've ever tried, for sure. wink.gif

Steady balance of exercise and eating right. Unfortunately i'm not losing weight but i'm also not trying to. It also has to do with people's specific metabolisms and factors like that. I would just consult a physician or maybe a trainer and see what they say. Haven't had to go on a diet yet.....but I should start workign out.

I have an extremely fast metabolism that pretty much keeps me at a steady weight, unless I'm on medicine that affects metabolism.

So for me it's not really a matter of gaining or losing weight, it's just keeping it. smile.gif

The only downside is that I'm ridiculously hungry all the time.

brag brag brag! Well I would say donate blood. It's a surefire way to lose weight. But right after that, it probably won't be enough so after you get up form your blood donation you should jog a mile and then drink a gallon of milk to rehydrate- then you'll be on your way!

I highly recommend you check out Paul McKenna's book: I can make you thin. It actually explains a lot of how weight is put on and how you can lose it. The funny thing is it's not so much about what you eat (although eating healthier foods, does help), it's more about when and how you eat.

Having a high metabolism like "Johnny" above is actually key. I don't want to ruin the book and I won't say everything as well as it's said there but basically...

Eat when you are hungry
Eat what you like, not what you think you should
Eat slowly and enjoy every mouthful (this is actually harder than you think!)
When you are full STOP.
