Nonie, I'd love to be your diet buddy. After all, we are both Chicago gals!

It was great reading the posts. I too have tried many diets. Am a lifetime WW--even worked there awhile. Also was sucessful on Atkins. My problem is after I lose, it eventually comes back. Haven't been able to get into the lifestyle thing. My doctor is working with me this time, and it helps to be accountable. Well, time to get dressed and go to Colony fitness center and walk the treadmill. Tried some other machines, but treadmill seems to use up the most calories for me. Don't do a lot each day, but I never miss a day. My doctor said, "Don't even try to lose weight without an exercise program."Avista
