A warm thanks to all who replied...

I guess what bothers me is that I read people on LL and BF who claim

to have lost tons in weight and inches, and claim they never had to

change their diets or eating habits...

What always makes me wonder is how it can work for some and not

others...I mean, I know we are all different, but it seems to me the

more I do these the more I should lose, and it just does not work that

way.

It seems to me, for myself, it is because of the Atkins thing I did

for a number of years, and then going off it because I have had a

change of heart about eating meat or animal products. Going off that

along with menopause have been the biggest hurdles I have ever had in

my life so far...haha.

The beauty is that I have stopped gaining...and everything I do lose

is permanent, which his a unique feeling. I am actually eating

normally and am now not gaining any more...

Anyway, I just had to thank everyone for the tips and comments...and

for caring to share...

What a great board!

Sincerely,
