im on atkins and i workout every morning i mean every morning i love it i have tons of energy and ive lost 22 lbs

I'm doing Weight Watchers and walking on a treadmill and chasing my 3 year old around. I've lost about 12 lbs from my Christmas high weight.

I'm trying to "Old Fashioned" way of losing weight. Healthy eating and a healthy amount of exercise.

So far I've had a lot of setbacks but I haven't given up. I wanted to do it this way because I want a lifestyle change instead of a diet. I hope that it works!:)

Loveisallyouneed,
the program I am on is basically a lifestyle change. I eat all the normal foods that I ate before. The only difference is that I watch the fat and the carbs. I was actually thinking about it the other day. I can't really consider this a diet, but a lifestyle change.

I'm also doing the old fashioned way, eat small but more and every 2-3 hours and LOADS of water.

exercise I do Muay Thai aka thai boxing.

it kills you but it's so great

im doing the eat clean diet. its all healthy foods...no white flour or refined sugars. smaller portions and eating every 2-3 hours with lots of water...also no or limited chemicals perservatives. i lost 51 pounds since july but 9 was baby and another 20 was probably water and other pregnancy stuff...still means i lost about 22 pounds of real weight...been working out too but majority of it is about diet....good luck

ww for me.

I have been on the patch for almost 2 weeks now and have lost 5 pounds. It curbs my appetite. I love it. If anyone wants to check it out I found it at http://applepatchdiet.com/tr65446

I'M DOING A COMBINATION OF WEIGHT WATCHERS AND "YOU ON A DIET "- THAT BOOK IS AWESOME AND IT DOES WORK- PLUS I TRY TO EXERCISE 30 MINS A DAY AND SATURDAY ME AND MY SIS GROUP GO WALKING AT THE PARK- THIS TIME WE ARE AIMING FOR 4 MILES AND I KNOW WE CAN ALL DO IT ! SO FAR I'VE LOST 30 LBS- SINCE LAST SUMMER AND I HAVE 60 MORE TO GO BEFORE I AM HAPPY WITH MYSELF...

Hey I'm just starting WW, but no processed food and exercise 3/4 times a week. If you have lots of weight to shift, I think you do need to diet to shift it, with a view to moving towards a natural, clean way of eating in the long run - if you have 'abused' your poor old body by putting too weight on, then you need to kickstart it to come off and work towards a healthy maintaining weight - good luck and let us know how you are doing??!

I second Lisa's approach with whole foods. BEST of Luck :)

Ok I started off on WW for 2 wks and just yesterday decided to change to the 6 wk body makeover. The program is not bad once you prepare your food and dedicate the time to eat every 2 - 3 hours. Again all my food is whole food, I drink plenty of water, adding salt or sugar to my food is eliminated which is fine because I have found other ways to make my food tasty. Oh and last but not least cardio (walking for now about 45 mins) Will let you know how this food plan works out for me...

WW worked for me when I was younger; I may do it again.
About a week ago I started forcing myself to drink a lot of green and white tea, and now I want it all of the time. I'm eating less and my waistline is going down. Time will tell if it makes a real difference.

I was on LA Weight Loss & doing well until they went bankrupt. I'm suprised that you were able to join LA because I was told that all of the centers have closed!!

I am just doing low fat, low calorie diet and 30 minutes of exercise daily. I allow myself one "cheat meal" a week. I have also cut out refined and processed food, and cut back on carbs. I only eat whole wheat now.
