Hello all,

I just want to share that for me, dieting does not work and dieting through the years gave me a mental illness. I am 42 yrs old, healthy and loving myself for who I am. I am blessed that I got a man in my life,whom loves me no matter what size I am.

I lost 17 Lbs with my no diet approach..and feeling healthy that I accept myself. I need to be active and starting to make peace with food. My pants are loosen and listening to my stomach of when and how much to eat till my tummy tells me so.

Have a nice day!
Liliann

I'm glad things are better!

Yay sista! I lost 0.5 inch last week from tummy through I.E. I share your enthusiasm...good luck with it.

Well you are lucky enough to lose enough weight without dieting.
May be you are consuming lots of calories in your daily routine.
Clearly weight loss is related to reduction in calories by burning fats in the body.
I was just wondering how could you just make up your weight without diet. It would be highly appreciable if you let us know what you have done to get your weight down by 17 lbs.
