I dont "diet"..I eat in moderation and have been eating like that since 1992 after 2 years of trying different diets that didnt work for me.
I have been working out for a year now.
I used to put in 10 to 15 hours a week at the gym and got a top-notch body even after having my first baby ('98 to 2003)...gosh, u could see every muscle in my body...
since starting two full time jobs (40 hours each totaling 80 hours a week) for two years and then having a baby, I ballooned up...I have been trying to get back to my old routine but it was so much easier to put in that much time at the gym when I had money, time, and less obligations...youth didnt hurt also!
Dammit! I hate getting older! LOL!
In order for me to get back in that shape, I have to put in serious time into exercising but it is hard with my job and kids...The most I can put in is either an hour or 90 mins a day 4 to 5 times a week.
