"Diets" don't work but eating well/differently/less does. You knew this, right? Also, moving about rather than lying around like a bored teenager, keeps your body happy. Maybe not "thin," but happy.
Also--women who have had no boobs to speak of other than during pregnancy who gain a tad extra in later years suddenly enjoy having breasts. What's wrong with that?
And, to repeat----From the NYT last July: "The New England Journal report also affirmed something many women have believed all along — that low-carb diets work better for men than women. Male low-carb dieters lost about 11 pounds, compared to about 9 pounds on a Mediterranean diet. Women low-carb dieters lost only about 5 pounds, compared to about 14 on the Mediterranean diet."
Let's face it--Anyone eating Mediterranean style will be delighted and delightful, over the long haul.
Also--anyone deciding to put his/her gym membership on hold until the outdoor pool reopens will find delectation at the local community center--damn fine use of taxpayer dollars--where the fitness paraphernalia is available free.
As for the two boxes of Trader Joe's seasonal peppermint cookies still lurking in my pantry, shall I give them to Goodwill?!
Great article! Instead of looking for quick fixes, we should eat a variety of colourful fruits and vegetables, keep physically active, and try to live a stress free life!
It’s an active process but well worth the effort to a healthier you!

Makes a lot of sense to me. Eating a healthy diet, not watching too much about what you eat bit concentrating on eating healthy whole foods, and getting some regular exercise does indeed work - fancy that hey :o)
