I know what you mean, I’ve just stated to cutting out (almost all) sugars and cutting back on starches, like bread cereals, and increasing veggies, proteins and good fats. My idea is to switch from a sugar burning metabolism to fat burning and I’m starting to see some progress(losing weigh). I still believe there’s no vitamins or shakes that are better for you that a healthy diet.

It seems the motivation is not there after 50. I have been losing weight on a regular basis since I was 13. This menopause, 50 weight thing is not something I bargined for? I do eat right. I eat breakfast. I have two snacks. I have lunch. I really could care less about dinner. But my horomones are out-of-control on a regular basis. I always have great ideas to get moving but then the weather changes my plans. I just let the exercise decline for the past two weeks for reasons I have no idea? I love exercise and the going to the gym, riding my bicycle outdoors, running, skiing, etc? But here I am 50 something and thing on one of the money based diet organizations. Jenny, here I come?

Marlene, I’m reading 2 books on mindful eating and maybe recommending both.

Your right Julie, if I do eat after 7 it’s a smaller meal that’s not so heavy.

Such good advice and sounds so simple, yet I often don’t drink enough water and forget to slow down and take notice of how stressed I am . Mindless eating can happen so easily. I will refer to this article over and over as I work towards my weight loss goal.

Way to go Pattie you are on the right track. Bang on with the meals, I always feel better the next morning if I eat light the night before. Yup loosing weight is crazy hard over fifty, hang in there. Here is a small tip for the morning I would like to share. A friend of mine explained to me that the pith of any citrus fruit fruit is very good for colesteral. I make fruit shakes in the morning and started adding a knife peeled (to leave as much pith as possible) cut up grapefruit, 1/2 cup strawberry, 1/2 cup mango or blackberry and a banana in a blender with some water or juice. Mix until all ingrediants are liquified. I use frozen and fresh fruit depending on what is available and in any combination, the frozen give a refreshing start to the drink. This stuff is drano for the viens, liver and kidneys and a great day starter. I dont drink coffee any more so this drink is my booster replacement. Hey add some protien and you have low fat high octane fuel ta git ya goin!

If I can just add to this; slighty off topic but I just recently acheived a monumental weight loss goal by using techniques from celebrity diet programs I studied about for free on the celebeater.
