News flash!  Do not go to some gimmick weight loss clinic.  I have tried two different ones.  Do they work?  Sure they do but as soon as you stop going all that weight comes back.  There is no quick fix when it comes to weight loss.  Exercise and diet are the keys to permanent weight loss.  I do not mean diet as in dieting; I mean diet as in what you eat.  Eat healthy.  This can be different for each person; you have to learn what works for your body.  For me, I went vegetarian.  I have no eaten meat since January 2012.  Well, I take that back I ate fish one time and I ate a couple bits of a free range, grass fed beef meatloaf.  It made me sick so never again.  I eat a lot of organic vegetables, organic fruits, and eggs.  I try to limit carbs but I am not too successful with that.  I drink a minimum of four bottles of water a day and at least one cup of black coffee.  I am also going to the gym at least twice a week.  I feel better, more energized, and although I am dropping a small amount of pounds I can see changes in my body.
