I love reading other blogs, forums, articles and every thing else I can get my hands on related to weight loss – because even though I have been at this for over three years now there’s always something new to learn or tips and tricks others have tried to try out myself.

There are a lot of sites online that seem to concentrate on drastic weight loss though, rather than slow, steady weight loss – I suppose because that’s what a lot of people are looking for these days.

I know when I started out and did the maths in my head and realised that at the rate I was losing weight I would still be in the overweight category in three years time I almost gave up, many times. But ultimately managed to talk myself into sticking at it because that time was going to pass regardless – so I could either age three years and still be 100 pounds overweight or I could age three years and be a much more happy and confident person due to losing 100 pounds

I just came across another site with a wealth of information about diet and weight loss and am going to work my way through some of the posts this afternoon.
