Losing weight is hard enough, but keeping it off is the real challenge.

I know so many people who yo-yo diet and they just get frustrated.  But, isn’t it time for you to put your needs first?  Isn’t getting thin and staying thin actually really important to you?  Isn’t it more important than going shopping for clothes (that don’t fit well), than goofing off yet again, etc?  You need to find at least 30 minutes a day to exercise and some time to get good food for your diet and learn a few good recipes and ways to eat so you can lose weight.

You have to make a lifestyle change.  You can’t just diet.  So, you can’t get bored.  The secret is to not be lazy and to start looking up different ways to cook things that you can eat.  Here is a book for all of you lazy asses who don’t want to cook!  http://www.amazon.com/Painless-Ketogenic-Diet-Recipes-People/dp/1502376350

Yes, you need to eat a small salad every day.  That salad has to have protein in it.  So, every day, do a variety of different things to that salad.  Use different meats, cheeses, etc.  Don’t eat the same thing, day in and day out, or you will get sick of it.  I know, I have been there.

Yes, you have to eat vegetables, two smal servings-two times a day.  So, cook it different ways.  I have a friend who always steams and likes it that way, but her family doesn’t like it.  So, make veggies a variety of ways.  Here is a website, which shares different ways to cook a variety of veggies.  So yummy!
