Ever wanted to take off a few pounds? Were you successful? Let's discuss diet and weight loss, guys.
I have tried every theory of weight loss or weight maintenance under the sun. (I've been "naturally skinny" all my life until the past five years or so, and have grown a tad fluffy with time.) In my 20's my doctor gave me speed -- man, that works like a charm! The guy who invents an appetite suppressant that has no bad side effects will make a fortune, and I gather they are making some progress that-a-way.
In my 30's I tried exercise. I was diligent as hell...seven days a week, mostly strength training. Never lost an ounce nor did I become any stronger. Exercise is unbeatable for stress management, though, I will say that much.
In my 40's keeping weight on was the problem, not getting it off. I blame the yo-yo hormones a lady has at an older age for this. Unfortunately, "skinny" is a bad look for an older lady.
Now, I am kinda sorta just watching what I eat, walking every day, blah blah blah. I'd like to take off about 15 lbs and nothing is happening. I'm beginning to think it's because I am meant to have the extra padding.
What say you? Ever wondered if the diet gurus are full of shit?
Move to another country where they have real food ?
Eat fresh, home cooked food.
Always eat 3 or 4 small meals a day and park your car as far away from Walmart as you can. Cut your own damn grass. Wash your own car.Paint your own house and clean your own gutters and flew,chop your own firewood, shovel your own snow,rake your own leaves, if applicable.
If not find a place to swim about half hour, 3 or 4 times a week.
In other words...be un-murkin.
Oh. And throw the fucking TV in a dumpster. You're all dumbed down enough.
Wake up early.
Start smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee.
Continue doing same until about 5 PM.
Eat one modest meal a day
Drink more coffee and smoke more cigarettes after dinner until bedtime.
Repeat that reigment for decades.
You'll lose weight, I promise.
amputation would work.

TV shows are saturated with beautiful bodies, so they should be role models. It's the food ads that should be muted, and I actually rarely see any because I record most of the programs I like and just FF over all commercials. Try to take my TV/DVR and die.
I hate hate hate water. I have to really force myself and I never come anywhere near 8 glasses. *Sighs*
I dun want this thread to turn all gross, but does anyone think colon cleansing is a legitimate weight loss aid or is it just nonsense?
Not an expert on this, by any stretch, but wouldn't that be a quick fix? Eating proper foods, drinking lots of (sorry) water, fiber, roughage, exercise ... those are lifelong things that will improve colon health, as I understand it.
Drink lots of water , 8 to 10 glasses per day..stay away from diet and regular sodas. Decrease salt intake.
Good luck Madeline

I don't think it necessarily has to be plain water. I hate drinking plain water myself, so I drink SoBe 0-calorie LifeWater. Juice also works. Anything water-based that doesn't have sugar, caffeine, and all that crap in it should do.

I have to disagree on one point. The "beautiful bodies" of today are almost always unhealthily, unnaturally thin, and a terrible role model. If you can't achieve a look and a body type while eating a decent, well-balanced diet every day, you shouldn't be trying for it.
My body role models were always the movie stars of the forties and fifties, ie. Jane Russell and Marilyn Monroe. My body is more than capable of doing that without any starvation, and I haven't had any complaints.
