 I agree with John -- quick fixes don't usually work.

You didn't get heavy overnight, and you aren't going to lose it overnight
either.

I haven't weighed myself in a while now. My clothes are looser and I feel
and look better. That's all that matters to me.

And I don't flog myself over what I eat, although I have noticed that I 
tend
to eat less overall most days.

For breakfast this morning, I had a steak (all the while thinking about 
this
very steer that slammed me into the corral panel last winter :)) eggs
freshly plucked from under a hen before I came in the house, and homemade
bread with elderberry jam I canned last summer. YUM!

I still eat all the good things that I want, but I don't shovel the junky
crap in like I used to. I find it increasingly easy to tell myself --just
wait for dinner, supper, whatever...

I find myself savoring what I eat rather than just mindless gnawing on
"stuff" And really, shouldn't your food be a source of enjoyment 
and
satisfaction? :)
