[quote=Anonymous]I gained 30 lbs by college graduation and kept it off for 10 years now. Went from 5'8" 160 to 5'8" 130. I was actually closer to 120 for a time but then I had a baby and I'm still holding on to about 10 lbs. Anyway, here are my tips:

Weight loss comes from diet. Even if you work out hard if you don't change your diet you won't see the results you want.

I basically drink 95% water. I drink maybe 1 glass of wine or have 1 beer a week. Very rarely (1x a month?) drink sugary soda, occasionally drink diet. A lot of women get into trouble with the calories and sugar in alcohol. A lot of my friends drink a bottle of wine every night or over the course of two nights. Cut wayyyy back on that stuff and drink more water and you will see results. If not in weight at first, at least in overall wellness and feeling better and more energized.

Make sure to get your protein, otherwise you'll never feel full. Lean meats and chicken. Don't slather them in sauce or butter, you can make them flavorful without that stuff by using herbs and spices and cooking in a smaller amount of oil.

I don't keep a ton of sweets/desserts in the house so I'm not tempted to overeat/snack. [/quote]
