Hi Vasinger! Are you still out there? Isn't it frustrating? Just like you, I've been exercising, eating well and still not losing.

I recently read an interesting article that talks about just how hard it is to lose and keep it off. After all 95-98% of people regain the weight they lose within five years. Studies show that overweight people who exercise actually live longer than skinny people who don't exercise! So I say, just keep doing that good four mile a day walk and you'll probably be fine. You're young so I'd hate to see you start the yo-yo cycle of starve and binge. Maybe you're just going to be a big guy all your life and that's really just fine.

Cheers!
