MD told me to lose weight in April of 07....I lost 50 pounds in 5 months. I have maintained this weight since September of 07, with a loss of a coupla pounds more. The only excercise I get is walking to and from the Buffet Line..

How did I do it...on a Buffet Diet....or that is what I like to call it anyway. I do indulge in a Buffet about once every week and a half on average. and I do pack it in....

The main secret is to CUT THE CARBS to under 100 grams a day. Not as hard as you think it is...

That means NO rice, pasta, bread, cereal, SUGAR or potatoes.... I have substituted LOW CARB Bread and Tortillias for Breads... I watch the amount of Beans...

SUGAR IS A KILLER... Splenda is your ally...

I CHECK THE LABEL on everything I eat so that I can see what it costs me to eat.

I have been using 1% Milk, Low Fat Mayo (Best Foods), Reduced CAl Sour Cream for ages now anyway...

I eat all the Veggies, Salad, Meat, Fish, Cheese and Eggs that I want.

Also raw nuts...Almonds are great for a snack, or a piece of cheese...

I do not watch the FAT content....I went from 215 Cholesteral to 133 in a years time.

This HAS WORKED FOR ME.. It is YOUR LIFE we are talking about here...so either you do it or.....
