Default So, what is this diet thing anyway?

Greetings,
As you can see from my title, I'm not much of a dieter. I tried Jenny Craig a few years back, but honestly... I ate the stingy little meals plus whatever I wanted. We can't call that a real diet, now can we?

Me? I'm 44, rapidly approaching 45. I was a tiny thing in my younger years, but have added 3-5 lbs each year to become the fluffy lump of flesh I am today. No kids, so I can't use pregnancy as an excuse. I just like to eat and don't like to move around much.

So, I'm thinking about doing some form of Fat Smash, or other whole foods plan. I won't do fat-free or artificial sweeteners, so that limits me in some aspects.

Would love to hear from other fortysomethings. Perimenopause is "special" isn't it?

Good morning, welcome to 3FC

I think you've come to the right place We have loads of 40-somethings and we are getting ready to add a special forum for us! We have a whole foods forum that might interest you as well. A lot of our members that live on whole foods either watch portions or count calories, instead of following a specific diet. We even have a Fat Smash forum

Good luck!

Red face Welcome!!


You've come to a great place for advice, support & encouragement!

I am 45 (46 in August) and just celebrated my 3 year Atkins anniversary. I never dreamed I could do it but...I have and now I would never go back to where I was.
