The best diet advice I can give you.

Most diets work temporarily for a few reasons: 1. you are hyper-vigilant about everything that touches your lips 2. you are radically changing habits and patterns (which is uncomfortable) 3. you are restricting something you loved to eat resulting in a lower caloric intake All of those are pretty hard to maintain over a period of time.   My best advice: same as always.  SIMPLE CHANGES & BETTER CHOICES...every day all day.  When faced with a menu make the healthiest choice you can.  Make tiny changes each day and they will become your new habits. I really believe that if you are carrying excess weight, you know why.  You know your vices.  You know if you are getting enough exercise.  If you are eating candy or drinking soda or eating fried foods and you are overweight you could definitely be making better choices.  Simple changes like adding an apple a day to your diet might work for you and keep you blood sugar more level so you aren't compelled to reach for a candy bar in the first place. I'm here with you.  I live what I teach.  Join me.  Simple changes and better choices on the daily. xx, Melissa   PS. I say the words "bad foods" in this episode and while I hate calling foods GOOD and BAD it's true that some foods are just not good for our bodies (gluten, seed oils, dairy) and we can choose to eat them anyway...
