I'm a little concerned that your eating just fruits ... if you want to lose thirty pounds and keep it off, you likely have to make some lifestyle adjustments. I know I know, that's not what you wanted to hear, you want the pounds off now! By lifestyle adjustments I mean taking some time out for yourself so that you can do the things you enjoy, sports, running, swimming, as well as leisurely activities such as watching tv ... we all need periods of rejuvination. You must make sure your getting your protiens, as well as fruits and veggies. Nothing is bad for you if taken in moderation, but to much of anything can be unhealthy. If it's easier sit down, and create a daily schedule ... a period of physical activity, your work activities, and record everything you eat ... it's easy to see if written on paper, what your missing and what your eating to much of ... to answer your question, expect at least a year of good lifestyle habits to lose 30 pounds ... but remember, once you have a solid "good habit" routine, it will be a lot easier to keep those 30 pounds off ... unfornately we all want quick fixes and well in this life, patience is the greatest virtue of all ... I wish you the best and hope you find what works for you!

thanks so much. this really helped alot. thanks again and take care :]

I grew up in Calgary Canada mostly, recieved a degree in psychology, moved around a lot as a child and recently just made a move to Oceanside California. I've had my ups and downs, some caused externally, some that I caused myself .. and am still in the learning life 101 class I was placed in 23 years ago, but having fun at it at the same time! I truly believe everyone has one fundamental thing in common, we all want happiness ... and as gullible as it may sound I believe everyone needs someone to believe in them or help them believe in themselves ... if you have a question, and your scared to post it publically feel free to e-mail me at aly_boschee@yahoo.com. I'll answer to every each one of you! Hey if you just want a friend to chat with ... feel free! ;) Look forward to hearing from all of you ...

" An unfortunate past is never an excuse to continue negative thinking in the present." - We've all had some sort of struggle in our past, we can not let these events control us ... it's in you to do with what you have!

" The minute you settle for less than you deserve, you get even less than you settled for." - we all deserve happiness, what is happiness to you? Just remember the golden rule, what you undo to others will be undone to you. To be happy treat others as you want to be treated. In addition, you'll just feel great knowing your making a postive print in this lifetime!
