Hi!

Thanks for the nice comments! This is month 10+ or so - you can read how I did it at my Weight Loss Diary.

Basically, I simply 'turned the switch' in my mind and researched my way to the one particular weight loss path that worked for me. For the first 9 months, I was mainly low-carb, and now I'm realizing, gosh, I can simply eat 'normal' now (I no longer eat junk food so excess calories are not a problem for me).

I also have become one with the iron...and trained myself to really appreciate strong solid deltoids/biceps/etc. You see, even when overweight, weight lifting can help define your muscles...and I got that immediate satisfaction of seeing positive changes in my body (even when the weight plateaued).

It's finally become a way of life to me - I'm not so much on a diet as I am living the way that produces the most pleasure for me.

Hope that helps!

Best wishes,

Barbara
