I look for my sewing box.....many steps involved; When I find it, I bend over to pick it up...a little exercise there; I pick up the box - getting some lifting action; I open the box - finger dexterify going on; I take out needle and thread, and thread the needle; I sew my lips together, and voila...my weight loss program has begun. Actually, I am watching my intake and increasing my exercise. The pounds are starting to fall off.

Weigh yourself. Diet. Low in Fats. Exercise, just mild walking at the beginning. Aim at loosing 1lb per week. If you loose 1lb per week for a month, CONGRATULATIONS if 5lbs comes off in a month, EXTRA CREDIT.
If you can find a friend with similar interests, do your exercise together. It will be much more fun.

I can do good on a diet until about 4:oo
p.m. and then I'm starving,I want to eat
everything in the house and usually do.
What can I do to keep from getting so hungry?

Don't eat if you aren't hungry.

I work on the 6th floor and walk up and down the stairs at least 3 times a day. Also since noone is there I also do pushups, squats and sidebends. A few hours after lunch instead of reaching for a snack I go up and down the stairs and then drink some water!!!

walking, walking, walking....increase my activity, keep a log of what I eat, use a small salad plate instead of a regular plate for meals (smaller portion sizes!) take my dogs for walks...

to Shirley;
Are you not eating enough earlier in the day? If you start the morning with some protein (like an egg) and some fruit then eat smaller portions throughout the day-you wont feel so hungry and deprived -'eating healthy and smarter will get you better results-our bodies need fuel!

I always remind myself that the weight did not come on overnight and it will not come off overnight. Slow and steady wins the race. So in your quest for the perfect body, take one day at a time, some days will be better than others. But the end result is your main objective.
