2. What I am NOT Doing

Before I lay out what I am doing, I need to state what I am NOT doing.

I had been under the influence of the diet and excercise industry for about 25 years when I finally acknowledged that the only thing necessary to lose weight is to take in less food than your body needs to use. I've also heard a doctor say "Eat less, move more." At the time, I couldn't appreciate that food was a real problem for me, so I wasn't committed to eating less or moving more, but I did believe that less food was key. As a result, I just couldn't buy into the diet and exercise industry pitches anymore. Therefore...

My weight loss will NOT INCLUDE exercise or diet food, drinks, or supplements (except for stevia...its natural and I like the taste in my teas).

I WILL NOT concern myself with metabolism, low carbs, good carbs, fat grams, fiber, water, or clean foods.

I WILL NOT reject the food offered at social occasions.

Simple, huh?

Disclaimer: Please remember that this plan is for me. I realize that there are other reasons that  someone may gain weight besides just overeating. So, this may very well be a bad fit for you. I do ask that you don't try to convert me. Just move on or continue following for entertainmet.
