  I’m happy to cite the studies. Certainly the people did consume more than they exercised, but the results were pretty universal. I’d like to think I was special, but likely just the same as others. When I was in my 20’s and 30’s, diet and exercise worked. Now that I’m in my 40’s… not so much. There seems to be more benefit than just weight loss. Cardiovascular health dramatically improves. My blood pressure is now normal. My brain seems to function better, as if I were 25 again. Alcohol doesn’t seem to have much lure any more. I may drink 3 drinks a week, compared to 10 prior, and now it’s just to be social. I could drink a non-alcoholic beer, and it would have virtually the same impact - pleasure wise.
