[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do a really demanding, intense sport 2-3x per week and usually lift weights or run a little bit on the other days.  I don't count calories, but I don't eat fast food or much processed stuff, drink alcohol pretty sparingly (a glass of wine or a margarita in summer once or twice a month usually), and drink ~100 oz of water every day.

Same about the sport - it's an intense 60 minute to 90 minute affair so a great workout. 2-3 times/week.
On the off days I swim or jog for an hour - often late at night so it fits in.
The sport is crazy fun so its not like it's work. I exercise every day because it makes me feel good.

If you don't play a sport you could try a class - kick boxing? Aerobics/step? It can be social too.

As for eating now that I'm nearing 50 I've put on a few lbs so should watch what I eat but I just don't.
Life is short.
Back in the day when I was crazy thin I didn't really watch what I ate but most of my eating was probably different than most people's.
I don't eat meat. No soda or diet soda. No fast food really. Not many high fat snacks or desserts. 
Yes chocolate, yes cream in coffee and yes ice cream. Bread, pasta, cheese eggs  - yup.
Not a lot of diet products (yuck) but yes lots of fresh, natural food? 
I've never weighed myself - just once a year at the doctor. I mean you can tell if your clothes aren't fitting right?

I've known sorority girls who only eat boiled chicken and veggies and that's it - apparently that's a good way to keep your weight down. I just could never do that (and was shocked when I heard that. I put food out at a mommy and baby party and no one would eat anything!).[/quote]
