I find that I'm doing much better by avoiding refined foods or potatoes -- breads, pastas, etc -- and sticking to fruits, veggies, beans, meats, and grains. This does necessitate more planning, and eating more vegetables in bulk. But somehow the act of processing the food must burn more calories.
I have much more energy and feel healthier than I did when I was a regular french fry, pasta, and bread eater. Prob'ly gettin' more nutrients. . .
I've lost 15 lbs. recently. I just joined a gym and started swimming and doing pilates, too.
