[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1318958, member: 41816"] Another rant here. lol. People always seem to think that what worked for them will work for everyone. I can't count the number of times that someone has posted along the lines of 'if you cut cals/carbs/fats/sugar/alcohol and up the exercise/mystic prayer chants while balancing on tiptoes then you [B][I]will[/I][/B] lose weight!' Actually, no. That worked for you. The odds are, that in the last 35 years I have tried that, and it may have worked briefly, and it may have been exciting and thrilling and filled me with Born Again Diet/Exercise Zealotry, but you know what? It didn't work long term, and 90% of the time it led to a slower metabolism, and increased chance of weight regain. So what works for some does NOT work for everyone - because we all have different genetics, environmental and stress factors, joint and muscle and health issues, hormone weirdnesses and emotional relationships with food. Rant over. [/QUOTE]
