Are You Planning on Losing Weight......

[jan]

was that your New Year's resolution? I didn't make it mine, but I want to try. Every year as I get older, it gets harder and harder to lose. It's strange, in the summer (every summer) I lose 20-25 lbs...because of the heat, my eating habits change. So why can't I eat the same things in the winter and lose?
I eat lots of salads in the summer...or a couple sandwiches thru the day. With the heat, my appetite goes bonkers. I don't seem to eat as much, and yet I have sweets. I do a little more exercise, but not much more then during the winter.
During the winter, its chowders, stews, things like that. Sometimes, a casserole, meatloaf.
Is anyone else trying to lose weight? Do you know where your problem lie?

Last year, 2009, my resolution was to drop from 225 lbs., down to 160 and improve my overall health. Now, a year later, I weigh 170 with 10 lbs., to go. I've learned alot about myself and have done what I never thought I'd do...stick to an exercise regimen. I like myself so much more today then I did last year. It feels so good to have lost that ugly 'belly fat!' Every time I go to Walmart I pick up a dumbbell equivalent to the weight I've lost and I am amazed that I was carrying all that excess weight. Good luck to all who undertake weight-loss endeavors, stick to you, you can do it!
