[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Intermittent fasting was the only thing that helped me lose weight and I have kept it off for over a year. Start with not eating for at least 2-3 hours before you go to bed and then skip breakfast, then eat a late lunch at 1:00. The link below has some good tips for getting started. I was skeptical in the beginning and didn't think that like other diets it would be very sustainable, but my body has adjusted great and I really just don't feel like food in the morning anymore. It is also a great way to improve your blood work. My mother started intermittent fasting and has lost 15-20 and was able to stop taking her cholesterol medication.   http://www.nowloss.com/intermittent-fasting-diet-plan.htm  [/quote]

Another big vote for this approach. Skip breakfast (not really the most important meal of the day). Eat a big lunch. and just nibble for dinner. I used to eat dinner and then nibble in the evening. Now I skip the meal. I had a horrible time counting calories and the totally no carb thing was also difficult since I always convinced myself I desrved large portions. Here I feel less deprived than ever and it is working. Too afraid to get on the scale yet but I got my first, Haven't you lost weight comment today. So exciting.

I think so many diets are focused on eating ... this is focused on not eating which is really the key. But like I say, little feeling of deprivation since you can enjoy a big meal every day.[/quote]
