How I lost Weight And Maintained It

From the emails I get, many of my readers seem to have questions about keeping weight off. I'll explain how I did it and maintained it for 10+ years.

I didn't have a plan at the beginning. I know I wanted to lose weight and to do that I needed to change my diet and I did change what I was eating, and I did lose weight. I tried to lose weight by working out and trying to burn more fat, but I had little success. It took time to realize that I had to eat healthy, cut calories, and stick to that new lifestyle. 

That meant I had to give up the foods I was eating, quit eating out, I had to make my meals and stop drinking calories. It will take time and I do some exercise but not that much. Losing weight is 80% diet, but not what you think. I don't starve myself. I simply eat healthy foods. I eat fresh vegetables, fresh fruits, and fresh meats, nuts, Greek yogurt and drink lots of water. You can drink any zero-calorie drink.  

Don't expect results right away, your body has to adjust to your new diet and your body will burn your excess fat over-time. I had to lose 60 pounds. It took me more than one year. Your body burns fat everyday but only small amounts, less than one ounce a day. 

Try not to eat any manufactured food. Eat only a small amount of red meat each week, it has too much fat. Take the skin off of chicken and fish. I made to reader up on "how to eat healthy".
