Rush was once on a talk show after he lost weight and said he cut out sugars and starches. If I remember correctly he was fending off type 2 diabetes.

So much for a polite request. Jerks.

Ooops - meant to include you in the above as well.

I'm sure all the dieters know about Mondays.

Uh-oh. Sounds like somebody's got a case of the Mondays.

I think it's a wonderful idea!

Sadly, this thread has already been ambushed by the jokesters & their sick pictures.

You have a good idea....

..Too bad no one seems willing to give it a chance.

If you pursue this, sign me on :)

Good luck with this... I'd participate as well if the idea takes off... I'd like to drop some pounds for summer.

I actually am a diabetic so I'm on a very low carb - no sugar diet. I walk 8 miles a day which helps also. I have lost 25 pounds on it so far.

sure. I have been doing the South Beach Diet. My mil has been on it for 4 years now, and she looks fantastic. I went on vacation, though, and need to get back on the wagon!

Every time you lose a pound, God kills a liberal.

I dropped 100 pounds by cutting calories drastically. Didn't excercise much. Now I am doing a lot of situps to try to tone.

I'm not sure how safe my diet was, but the fact that the weight loss was so fast made it easier to stick to the diet.

Now I weigh myself every day to make sure I'm not creeping back upward. And I still don't eat a lot.

I am interested. Had lost significant weight four or five years ago, now starting to do it over again. We did it then by the low-carb method. Found the weight again with DQ, Christmas, Thanksgiving, Superbowl Suday, birthdays, weddings, etc., etc. etc.

Mrs. Designer is just now starting the South Beach Diet. I will try to become more active when the weather warms again.

I'm not sure about this. I gained 10 lbs. last year because I spend too much time (is there such a thing?) at FR. :)

I'll go next. I've always found that if I start concentrating on losing weight, I get hungry. What works for me is not eating - and walking everywhere I don't absolutely need a vehicle to get to. What I do for exercise fun is to use my step and a set of small handweights with music with a good beat blasting.
