Lifestyle Changes May Be the Only Way to Lose

The resveratrol and soy isoflavones combo appears to be a bust—at least for me. I've been taking the combo since last Friday. I weighed myself this morning, and no weight loss. I've been in a weight loss plateau for about four months now. I haven't really lost anything in that time, and have even gained a few pounds. Actually, the scale goes up and down—sometimes it goes way down and then it goes right back up again. Anyway, this approach doesn't seem to be working. But the CLA isn't doing anything either, and it usually has some effect—even if it's just a pound or two. 

So I don't know—my problems may be centered around my being menopausal. But I'm going to keep taking it. I'll let the experiment run a little longer. I'm confused about the CLA having what appears to be no effect. Hmmm. 

So the gym was good again today. The scenery was spectacular. The "crush" was looking good today. He look like he may even have lost some weight. Too nice. But how is it that men seem to have far less trouble losing weight than women? It seems like if a guy wants to lose weight all he has to do is cut out a snack or two, exercise a little bit—maybe run a little and lift some weights every once in a while, bat his eyes a couple of times—and then the weight is magically gone? It is so unfair. 

OK. It's another busy day. I'll keep checking in with results about the resveratrol and soy isoflavones. Maybe it's just going to take a little longer. But then I'm always wasting my money looking for miracle cures. I think the only thing that really leads to weight loss and physical fitness is true lifestyle change.
