If you are overweight and unhappy, the solution is not in another diet book or celebrity trainer. If you find yourself always back at the same place every few years (or maybe months), you need to figure out what is holding you back. Weight control starts in your mind. You are at exactly where you need to be. You cannot move pass GO unless you figure out why you are holding on to your weight.

Though variety is the spice of life, when it comes to dieting, variety increase our chances of failure. The January issue of most magazines always have some kind of meal and exercise plan to whip us back into shape after a couple months of holiday eating.

Variety in food is what kills most diet plans.
The execution of a diet meal plan is the key to success for weight loss.
