I found a weight loss program that works for me just when I was ready to give up and live with my plus-size body.  I always understood the health benefits of losing weight, but nothing I tried worked for me.  Diets were usually so restrictive that I would feel deprived or starved.  Exercise programs did not last because I would get sore and exhausted long before I got used to them.  Finally a friend suggested I try Fat Loss 4 Idiots, and I did.  It was not long before the weight came off, which gave me the incentive to begin walking every day.  It has now been six months since I got down to a size eight and I plan to stay there.
