I have to say I haven't tried them all, but I have tried a bunch of them. I tried the liquid diet, the diet where you only take in food that is liquid form. Did that for about 2 weeks and thought I was gonna die without the T!! I have tried the diets that have you eat their foods, and that's all good, but eventually I had to eat something else lol. I have tried the cabbage diet, the grapefruit diet, thought about trying the ice cream diet, but that one just sounded to good to be true. I tried the infamous shots from Mexico (was only brave enough to do that once). I have tried countless different diet pills. Yes the weight would come off, but I didn't change the right thing and the pounds came back and they usually brought friends!
So here I am, I have a game plan for changing my life. So very grown up of me if I do say so myself. In a few months I am going to be 40, and I sure don't want my 40's to be fat. I want them to be fit and fabulous. Well ok no matter what I'm going to be fabulous :) So I'm calling this my lifestyle change not the dreaded "D" word, because I don't want to go on anything that has the word DIE in it!!
Good choice. I myself hate the word diet and like you I have done every diet out there. Yes the weight came off but as soon as I started eating again it came back on double the amount. So, I am starting today to start walking and incorporating some excercise daily with portion control. Good luck!
