[quote=Anonymous]I hate when people pipe up as if they're experts. The thing is different things work for different people. I know plenty of people who eat sugar, drink every now and again, eat carbs with every meal, and they are skinny and healthy and fit and happy. You have to sort out some balance and moderation. We all have a different combination of genes, hormones, chemical balance. Everyone loves to say eliminate carbs and do the paleo thing, but seriously, I'm usually thin, and when I tried that (in the name of health, not weight loss), it was the first time in my life I gained a lot of weight (and not muscle). When I went back to my usual balance of carbs, protein, sugar in my coffee, I went back to my normal weight. One thing that is important is to make sure that you are getting some activity/movement in every day. It doesn't have to be killer. In fact, it's better if it is something sustainable, like a 30 minute walk. And remember, a lot of those drastic diets that cause fast weight loss lead to, eventually, more weight gain. Even the bariatric (sp?) surgery... I've read that a lot of people are really pleased the first 2 years, and then they gain *all* of the weight back, but they've carved up their bodies in a way that they'll forever have to take supplements.[/quote]
