> HI Kirstie,

You sound like all the rest of us, we have all tried everything out 
there, have been succesful with most all and have gained it all back 
plus more, mainly because none of them are EP you can live with the 
rest of your life.They are not reasonable, nor balanced. They are 
attractivee because of the quick weightloss, but after awhile even 
that lure wears off knowing it wont last. Of ourse you realize that 
DH will not be able to maintain that weight loss or EP, simply 
because life happens, the weight loss will stop, he will think he 
is "safe" now,he will stop his crazy plan and go back to eating like 

he used to. My DH was on the 84 bites per day plan. look for the 
post about it back before christmas, it was hysterically funny and 
not good for weight loss.We all post progress occasionally, as it 
really is helpful and encouraging to all. After all thats what we 
are here for.I personally am at 7# off this month.I credit that to 
my treadmill as that is the only change i have made to my daily 
routine since October when i started. Have also cut down on my 
weekly alcohol consumption as i had a sneaky feeling it wasn't 
helping.:)we are all so alike, but yet with different problem areas.
I only wish i knew about this in my 20's when it my dieting started, 
after the babies were born. Thats when my fad dieting started. I 
believe that the younger you are when you establish good eating 
habits the better. On another progress report i gave, i told of my 
13 yo daughter going from a size 13 to a 7 on this very plan. she is 
thrilled and is continuing it as a way of life. After all she knows 
it works, its healthy, won't kill her, or make her sick. i must note 
that she does DDR for exercise.Fun exercise. so please post your 
progress and tell your DH he better stop bragging or you just might 
strangle him with those pants next time.:)

WEll have a wonderfull SSS weekend. Julie
