stop dieting

[Capngizmo]

Who would've thought, after all the diet's that I've tried I have finally learned the secret, weight loss only comes from a lifestyle change. I was up to 330 pounds yes really, when it happened my wife told me I was fat I looked in the mirror and sure enough I was super fat... it's now been about 2 months 3 weeks and I've dropped 59 pounds I am down to 271 pounds... my goal atm is 220 after I hit that I may just keep on going a lil bit more...so to all the fat people hoping to lose weight I say quit with dieting and change the way you eat... I would like to thank my son Johnny and my wife Elizabeth 4 all their support... I feel much better than I did and hopefully I can keep on track...

That's exactly what I did. May 2010 I weighed 335lbs. May of 2011 I weighed in at 245lbs. Lifestyle change and regular exercise. No diets. No supplements. Nothing crazy. I am still exercising regularly. Unfortunatley I've put on a few more lbs but at least I am maintaining.

I understand how this site works...
I just don't encourage or contribute talking down towards pretty much anyone(unless they bring it upon theirselves, of course).
I just want this section to encourage people towards a healthy lifestyle, not discourage.
We all have different goals, but we are here to support each other in achieving those goals set forth.

You're both missing the OP's point..

Dieting is more of a "I need to lose 10lbs" and do some rearranging in eating until the goal is reached... typically resulting in the yo-yo syndrome of ballooning/deflating weight fluctuations. So, what he is speaking of isn't a 'diet' but actually saying, "the way I'm living right now is shit and it's gotta stop".

Anyone can diet, completely uprooting and discarding your current eating habits is a whole different ball game.

Dieting is what you're eating. He went from eating shitty to eating healthy. If that's not dieting, i don't know what is.

Weird how everyone gets it except you.

It's funny how everyone thinks that changing the way you eat isn't dieting.
