Drinking plenty of water helps (in making you feel full), but I think you already do that.

Eat slowly... Most obese people eats fast they barely chew. French people and Argentines eats a lot of meat and they are skinny because they eat slowly.

Yes, but I always need to disguise water instead of just plain. This is strange, but if I drink plain water, I get hungry. If I drink disguised water, I get full. For example, I like water with true lemon (crystallized lemon water enhancer made from real lemons and sold by the box in packets. I buy in bulk.)

I agree, but now as my teeth are being pulled, I am alot more slower so as not to choke. So, my consuming too fast has come to an end. Maybe I might lose weight? My family physician is due here sometime this month, so when he weighs myself, we shall find out.

Brown rice,Red Rice, Black Rice or corn grits instead of white rice.

Wholewheat bread instead of white bread

Sweet potato, taro or Yams instead if Potato

I am a carb lover. Always have been. Always going to be.

As my dental appointments continue, I cannot always have what I want.

I love grits (polenta) and prepare in the Crock-Pot.

Then, I have been consuming keto-friendly bread. After tomorrow, I probably am not going to be able to have bread. We shall find out.

Do you have any tips for people having dental work? Thank you!

Years ago, when I was very healthy, I had this phobia to not have food on my stomach before bed. I had this feeling that I would get a huge stomach.

So, I jumped on a mini-trampoline for an hour or 2 before bed and never had a stomach! I was slim and trim, with no illnesses or any health problems.

It is better not to eat too close to bedtime - I read that it encourages weight gain. I've also read that exercising too close to bed time isn't good because it can make it harder to get to sleep, but I suppose it's not that way for everyone and it sounds like it was working well for you. Mini trampolines are great. My Mum has one and she loves it.

I jumped in front of a mirror so that I would not fall off and jumped to music on a rock station or Van Halen's cassette tape called 1984.

Loosing weights has to do with mindset and discipline. You can’t say you want to lose weight but you still eat everything you are not suppose to eat.

WHOLEWHEAT food items are key.

Also, eat less, eat healthy, be active, sleep, drink water, cut right back on sugar. Someone once told me to always stop eating the minute I feel full. I know there's always pressure to finish what's on your plate, but these days I refuse to stuff my face full just to be polite.

When I was on the no-carbs diet, I dropped a lot of weight, but I coudn't keep it up beyond three years because I refuse to give up bread.

I am not on the Keto diet, but Keto bread has so few calories. So expensive though. Yesterday, my roommate was going to buy a loaf of Keto for myself but the grocery store wanted $6.00 for a loaf. So, for myself, she bought Sara Lee honey wheat 2 loaves for $5.00 instead.

There is NO way that I can do the intermittent fasting lifestyle.

I like:

3 mini meals
2 protein shakes
1 sensible dinner

each day.

;) ;)
