Real Weight loss?

[skb2706]

My only point is to "not get discouraged" and "don't give up".

Changing ones lifestyle is a huge obstacle and rare are the ones who can do it.
I was lucky because it was a lifestyle I adopted at a very early age and it has been with me ever since. I was not destined to be "in shape" in fact my families on both sides tended to be very heavy and in poor shape comparatively. I choose to not follow their lead.

I understand the "Catch 22" theory ............I would still contend that the long term gains ....far outweigh the short term pain.
