Hi "Eight"! Tough question you asked there. There are, as you probably know, about a million different diets and weight loss programs out there.
Personally, Weight Watchers has worked best for me. But again, that's just my personal opinion. Any program where you "eat right" and get some kind of exercise can't be bad.
Sorry I can't be more help. But you just have to find the program that works for you.
OK, now the real reason I'm posting to you.
I see you're in Lansdale. I lived there for a couple years. Now I'm just south of you in the Willow Grove area. Hi neighbor!
