Female, 68 years young. Had to lose this weight and logging in to MFS everyday and entering every bite works.
I have dieted all my life. I've only been successful when logging in every bite and it's working. I'm starting to sleep better and more energy. Yes, I eat bread everyday. I'm not switching things I eat but rather weighing and measuring. I don't see the point in changing to some extreme diet where you lose and then go back to your regular eating habits. Moderation is the key.
With renewed energy, I now take care of elderly folk, now there's an oxymoron if ever I heard it. I'm 68 and most of my clients are 10 years or more younger than me. Love all of them and try my best to make their life a little easier. Chores around the house, laundry, lending an ear, praying with them. It's all good. I believe that taking care of those you love and those you don't even know lends an indelible impression of a good life.
I do not call reducing calories "on a diet", I call it a wake up call/life change.
