Losing weight. The equation is pretty simple. Not too many variables. But the execution is not simple, at least for many of us.

- dougbarrett 5y agoI can't stress this enough, losing weight should be on the top of my list, but there are so many other stressors in life that it makes it a low priority for me. Though I do realize the fact that if I got my weight under control, other things in my life may fall into place since I'd be leading a healthier lifestyle altogether.
- mod 5y agoMostly the same for me. It's not low-priority, I just frequently fall off the rails--many when I drink alcohol, which happens a lot because I own a bar. I think it's the thing I could do to improve my happiness the most.
- Graffur 5y agoSo you're saying the execution isn't easily doable?
- mod 5y agoYes, perhaps "simple" was the wrong word. It's hard for me to force myself to avoid short-term pleasure for long-term pleasure, even though I'm quite sure I'd be happier -40lbs than I would be eating all the steak and potatoes that keep me overweight.
- sbacic 5y ago> Losing weight. I have had great success with the alternate day fasting method (I'm on it right now in fact). Probably because it doesn't require me to _do_ anything - no calorie counting, no tedious exercises.
