[quote=Anonymous]I'm 46 and just shed 15lbs. I'm now the the same size or smaller than I was in high school. (5'0" 114lbs)  I'm pretty muscular and you can see definition in my arms, legs and abs.  I used weight watchers.  I'm an exercise junkie but nothing changed until I started watching what I ate.  I work out 6-7 days a week.  Running on 2 days and boot camp and SolidCore once a week.  I eat what I want but now I plan for it and it is one meal, not "It's Saturday I can eat junk all day because I did a long run."  For example, if I plan to go out to dinner on a Saturday night, I will work out in the morning, eat something like berries and yogurt for breakfast, a salad with some sort of protein for lunch (chicken or beef or fish) then eat whatever I want for dinner.  I also don't drink as much as I used to.  I've never been a big drinker but my husband and I would enjoy a glass of wine with dinner 4 or so nights a week.  Now I drink when I feel like it but it is usually when we go out and not as much at home.

If we have a big weekend of going out, I will eat what is served but much less of it than before.  Also, I am a carb lover and I still have carbs, but not as often.  I will eat the chips in the bowl until they are gone so it is easier for me not to start.  I eat sweets too, but again, not as many and not as often.  I've found that lots of junk just isn't that good and not worth it.  [/quote]
