I have many times fought the battle of losing weight with no success. I have tried going to the gum, changing the way I eat, and kicking out stress all without seeing any improvement so I would give up with in defeat. The truth is I’m impatient so when I didn't see immediate results I gave up. One of the things I have learned by reading Counting Calories was the losing weight doesn't happen overnight and you have to have the will, strength and motivation to continue the fight. Jane Olson, author of Counting Calories helped me make a plan of the weight goal I wanted to reach then gave steps on how to go about completing the steps needed to reach it. The first thing I did was decide to eat healthier by kicking out the soda's, eating less starchy foods, not eating after 6 pm. And most of all not to let stresses drive me binge eat. In my first 2 weeks I lost 14 pounds. Needless to say I was surprise to see that the plan was working. I started feeling more energetic and healthier. Jane described how she make meal plans and exercise routines to help with the process. You don't have to stop eating the foods you love just moderate how much you eat. You also need to include variety in the meals of the different food groups as they work together to burn fat and break down food. I strongly encouraged any one trying to loose weight to read this book as I think you could learn a lot from it.
