Alright, Jade. Thanks in advance for the recipes! I sincerely hope others
who stop by this newsgroup stay and post. This is probably the only
newsgroup without spammers! Lol. Low-cal definitely works.

This newsgroup is DEAD! But I'll post anyway in the hopes there is
another
sole interested in losing weight by lowering calorie intake -
apparently the
most unpopular way to lose weight. Activity is booming on other diet
newsgroups where they discuss the latest diet crazes. However I really

believe it is a matter of simple math. One must eat less to lose
weight.
How much you can eat and still lose depends on your activity level.
I've
been eating 1,500 calories in the form of three 500 calorie meals per
day.
It is working. Lost 3 lbs. this week, so I will continue. I'm very
interested in anyone else's diet experiences and I'm always looking for
low
cal recipes! Hope someone posts.

Isn't it interesting that this group is so dead? No one wants to hear
the
truth that one must eat less to lose weight. They are all busy trying
to
figure out ways around this fact! Lol No wonder so many Americans are

obese!

Thumbs up to you Dan...People just don't want to admit that there's not
a magic pill or diet that is going to make them lose all the weight in
some magical burst of light. It takes hard work and determination AND
EATING LESS CALORIES THAN YOU BURN. I've had great success with
counting calories, lost 55 lbs (twice...lol) I'm a stress eater and
becauses of major changes in my life in the last 3 years I've got to
lose it again. But I know I can and you can too. My suggestion is to
write everything down to keep a running total of calories. Tomorrow
I'll send you a recipe for a few favorites of mine. Jade
