I have a confession to make. I am not a dieter. The last time I was able to stick to a diet was ten years ago when I droppped 40 lbs. via the Atkins' Diet. But, after 4 months I couldn't look at a steak without gagging. (This has nothing to do with the efficacy of low carbing, but more with my need to eat a varied diet...)
Recently I have been trying to stick with the No S Diet, which is a simple, No Snacks, No Sweets, No Seconds, Except with Days that Start with S. It gives me boundries, but still is difficult for me to follow "to a tee".
February and March were tough because I shot up to 190+ lbs. At 5' 9". Since April I have hovered at 185. Having started speed bagging and rope skipping (as opposed to exercycling) I have noticed I look thinner and appear to be "muscling up". I stepped on the scale this morning, after a weekend of Father's Day eating and laying on the couch watching a small Irish man crush every other golfer at the US Open, and weighed an even 180 lbs. I am pleased.
