Listen to yourself there.

It's common sense, actually. Eat healthier means cutting out lots of the junk food. Cut out lots of the junk food, your caloric intake becomes much less.
Exercise more. You burn more calories.
Yes, it is simplistic...and it happens to be the truth. Burn more calories than you take in and generally you will lose weight. Common sense.
I can understand the desire to look for a patented diet plan, of course....there's something comforting in following a set of rules. But there's nothing that says you cannot create your own set of rules that works for you!
That's what I did...and I lost 45+ or so pounds during 2007. Give yourself permission to be smart about your food lifestyle...and who knows, perhaps you might suprise yourself with your achievements.
Best wishes,
Barbara
