Try Weight Watchers. It is very real world friendly, no food is banned and they do not require you to eat any special food. It stresses portion control, making healthy choices and exercise. You can still have fast food or pizza occasionally as long as you stay within your points...just don t overdue it. The article below explains how to do it and has some links to reference sites.

Brandi - I feel for you. Go to this calculator and select basic metabolic rate for your activity level (http://www.freedieting.com/tools/calorie�� to see how many calories your body needs in a day. Simply do not go over that limit. This is how I first started losing weight. It was hard because I used to work as a social worker, so I would go by a nearby fast-food place for lunch (Taco Bell, McDonalds, you name it) and I would try to order smaller items that I thought had less calories, but when I went to the website and checked how many calories a chicken quesadilla with a side of nachos had, I was going waaayyy over my limit. I would suggest making something the night/weekend before and taking it in your lunch. It might be difficult at first, especially if all your co-workers are eating out too (I know mine did, they would come in with fast food bags every lunch and it was hard to resist, especially when I first stopped the fast food). Feel free to snack on healthy and natural foods (trail mix, granola bar, etc). Do whatever works for you, just don t go over that limit.Another really helpful thing I did was stop drinking soda. Girl, this was so hard to do because I drank soda everyday. I had to start out really slow with it. First, I started out by ordering a water with my soda. Then I told myself that I would have to drink from that water first before I drank any soda. Gradually I got to the point where I drank the whole water before the soda, and then finally one day I drank all water and no soda and I knew I was reaching my goal. After that it was really difficult to maintain, because I swear I went into withdrawal (people don t believe that you can have a caffeine/sugar/soda addiction, but I am living proof that it does happen!) where I seriously had mild headaches and felt under the weather for 4-7 days. It was miserable, but I got past it and haven t looked back. I ve been soda free for seven months now and I feel so much healthier, not to mention people tell me that I ve lost a lot of weight and look great (I m 5 5 and 121lbs) I also try to do 30-45minutes of exercise everyday, but I would think in the beginning the eating changes make the most dramatic difference.It might sound counterintuitive, but eating more meals in a day has worked a lot better for me than eating three meals. By splitting the meals up, I feel more full and plus I am happy to add more variety to my diet. Here is a good example of how someone eats healthy (meal by meal): http://www.bodyrock.tv/2008/12/15/my-typ��So, to summarize:1) calculate how many calories your body needs and don t go over, no matter what. Don t try to starve yourself and go dramatically under either, but if you are under that s fine. Just don t go over.2) Be aware of how many calories you are putting into your body. Try to pack foods from home to save/cut back on calories.3) Drink water with or instead of your favorite caloric drink (soda, coffee, etc.)4) Stretch your meals out through the day.Hope this helps!
