[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I ate less and moved more. I eat only protein in the morning and hardly any white carbs throughout the day. Due to all my exercise, I would guess I'm eating about 2100cal/day to maintain.  It took about 9 months for my metabolism to really start to kick in and crank up.  Once I got most of the egregious excess weight off and had a lot of strength training under my belt, I started to run. The running has shaped me into my dream...a nice slim build.

I just hear a lot of people overweight who have more excuses and I was one of them until I was truly digusted by what was in the mirror and how out of shape and tired I was feeling.

As to the PP, I'm not calling fat people gross. I was speaking of myself. I find it very hard to believe that there are many women out there happy with themselves as a 12.  Today's 12 is yesterday's 16 and whichever you slice and dice it, a woman in her 30s and 40s should not be that size. Your 30s and 40s should be prime time for looking and feeling your best ever.[/quote]

I'm not willing to give up carbs to go from a size 12 to a size 8. I'm 5'6", 158 pounds and 45 years old. Enjoying my food is more important than weighing 140. I'm very active, I just like my carbs and wine![/quote]

I have not given up carbs. Just returned from a lunch and ate a huge bowl of Pho Soup.  I do not eat carbs at breakfast and I also will not be eating white carbs at dinner. I will probably have grilled steak over a mixed green salad.

I like my carbs and wine, but certinaly only eat carbs with intention. I'm not going to chow down on a loaf of bread at a restaurant before my meal arrives and I'm not going ot waste my carbs on a bag of tortilla chips. If I'm going to eat pasta, it is going to be something GOOD, not just something I throw together on a Tuesday night.[/quote]
