As someone who has struggled with weight most of
my life, I really think the key is
to exercise (as well as eat
healthy, of course). About 10 years ago I just decided enough was enough-I was sick of being overweight. I taught myself how to cook differently, stopped eating out frequently, limited alcohol, got real with myself that there are certain foods I just can't have in my house anymore, and joined a gym. Those are all things that have worked for me and have become habits.
