Don't know if I can name the silliest diet, or even if I can say I've ever truly "dieted"... nothing lasted very long! But here's what I've attempted (even if only for one day): - Dr. Phil's "Ultimate Weight Solution" - Bob Greene's "Get with the Program" - Carole Lewis' "First Place" (based off the...

FLYLady (www.flylady.net) always says: "Progress, not perfection" So, by starting again, right away, you've already made PROGRESS! There's another quote out there, but I don't know who said it. But it says something like this: Failure isn't 'failure' until you fail to try. In other words, as long as...

If you wanted to be a monster perl hacker, all you needed was the llama book, the camel book, and the jaguar book. Coming from a previous career as a librarian, this was very appealing to me. -- by the time you plowed through them all, the technology would be obsolete. Knowing what to ignore is as ...

This is without a doubt my #1 weakness. I tend to get over-enthusiastic about something and push myself too far too fast. Then I find out about all the *other* ancillary things you can do that are similar to the new habit and want to start them as well. But all that does is dilute my mental focus a...

I, personally, LOVED the podcast on Habit Management! I thought that your theory of how looking at the "end goal" doesn't help, but looking at the "actions and behaviors" that LEAD the the "end goal" is better! Fantastic way to go about things! It makes sense, too, where you said something about how...

This is my hope too. I have tried SO many different weight loss schemes that I know some people just think "here she goes again." This one does really feel different though, and I'm not talking about it much. Just doing it. It's not about food all the time. It's about getting on with life. In a few...

So when the sweet craving is big, as it most likely will be in the beginning, you might try something like this. Fiber One bar - 150 calories, 9 huge grams of fiber and 3 grams of protein - these stats make it a healthy option and not a sweet in my book. Oh, oh, oh... I am SO glad to read this! Bei...

Re: REINHARD'S REBELS
I have been using regular sized plate lately. I am feeling fatter so I think I will start adhering to the rules even more. If I am having salad I use a seperate dish so the juices don't get on it-I'm not good at vertual plating/eyeballing the area. i think I'm deceiving myself. I tell myself if I h...

Just a word of warning about soy... if you have a thyroid issue, you might not want to drink soy milk. Apparently soy milk & thyroid issues do not mix. It'll cause you to gain TONS of weight. My sister didn't know she had a thyroid problem, so she started drinking soy milk because she thought she mi...

Thank you!
Thanks, wosnes and Lilly! :) I've not read the book yet, no. I only learned of this diet yesterday. I did read through Reinhard's website, though. It has me intrigued. But, I asked this question because I just wanted to be absolutely clear on the "how-to". I'd like to give this thing a whirl. My big...

Newbie question about sweets
Sorry if this has been asked before... I am wondering, if it says "no sweets", then isn't having them as part of a lunch wrong? For example, a lot of times I'll add 5 chocolate Easter eggs (or hershey's kisses), or a piece of cake, or whatever to the end of my lunch... a way to get in my "sweets" wh...

I read it, too
I just discovered the WW article last night, while standing in the checkout line at the grocery store. And, it sounded like such a common-sense approach that I had to buy a copy of the magazine and bring it home to find out more. Today I read the website, and I'm convinced enough to give it a whirl ...
