[QUOTE="Frog4aday, post: 1620698, member: 9308"] You are looking for 'new' ideas, so here goes: [B]16-8 diet[/B]. You only get to eat during an [B]8[/B] hour window each day. You pick what that 'window' will be. Once you chose, you stick with that. You don't get to change it everyday. As an example, you can eat from 11am to 7pm each day. Some people chose 10am to 6pm. Whatever you pick, you stick with that. For the other [B]16[/B] hours (7:01pm to 10:59am), you fast. No calories. You can have water. You can have black coffee. But no calories. And you walk. Or whatever you normally do for exercise. Wife got a great dane and he makes SURE we walk him everyday! Best 'motivator' ever. Plus, he's an amazing dog. The thing is this - you won't lose the weight fast. Maybe 2 lbs a month. So 24 lbs in a year. But it is SUSTAINABLE. There is no 'denial' of foods involved. During your 8 hour window of eating, you eat/drink what you'd like. It is the denial of foods we like that makes other diets unsustainable. I've been doing this since October. I've lost 12 lbs so far. The 'hardest' time for me is around 9:30 in the AM, when I'm hungry but still have 90 minutes to go until 'food time.' But EVERY thing good in life takes SOME self-discipline. Really, this 'diet' (I hate to even call it that) is pretty sustainable. You don't 'get on it' then 'quit'. This is it. For the rest of your days you do this. And it's not that hard. What I've found is that I really end up eating about twice a day. Once at 11am and then again around 5:30 to 6pm (finishing before 7pm) and that's satisfying my needs. I don't feel starved or deprived. Sometimes I'll have a small snack between my two meal periods, sometimes not. And I still get my coffee in the morning (can't live without it!) It just has to be black. Totally do-able! [/QUOTE]
