Hi everyone! I’ve recently lost 80lbs and I’m still going. I’m posting this video of my before and after pics in hopes that it will inspire others to lose weight and feel better about themselves. I still have 40 pounds to go but my life has changed dramatically for the better already. Losing weight is always hard and diets suck. I finally found a diet that works for me and is easy to stick to and it immediately started to change my life. Now I’m getting thin and happy. I have a better life now. I think it’s important to pick a diet that works for YOU, because if you don’t stick with it you won’t lose weight anyway.
I love food. I’m totally addicted to food, lol. So many people like me have a food addiction or are emotional eaters. Emotional eating is a hard habit to break. I’m not sure it is even possible to break but you can still lose weight through diet and exercise even before ending emotional eating. I don’t like counting calories for weight loss. It’s too hard. I’m happy on the diet I’m on because I don’t count calories and exercise is optional. I do like to exercise though so it’s not a issue. However, some days I don’t want to exercise so I don’t and I still lose weight. My weight loss is coming pretty easy because I’m on a diet I can stick with. Sometimes my emotional eating and food addiction still gets the best of me but I just get back on my diet again the next day. Soon I’ll be at my goal weight and that is going to feel incredible! I really hope to inspire others to lose weight through diet and exercise and reach their goal weight.
The Layer Diet works really well for me but remember, pick a diet that works for YOU. I like the layer diet because there are no food restrictions. I get to eat whatever I want. Also, the layer diet doesn’t claim that you’ll lose 40ibs a month or something ridiculous like that. I think those diets that claim to produce the fastest weight loss are usually the “fad” type diets that don’t really work. Don’t just pick a diet that offers the fastest weight loss. We all want to lose weight fast but it has to feel natural or you won’t stick with it. I’ve tried every diet under the sun and losing weight has never come easy to me until I started my current diet. I’m not going for the fastest weight loss because I know the fastest weight loss is not always the best weight loss. It seems like the faster the weight loss the harder it is to keep off! I know once I reach my goal weight I won’t gain it back again because I’m taking my time. I’m still achieving pretty fast weight loss I guess but I’m in no hurry. Diets that offer the fastest weight loss are the hardest to stick with and don’t work, in my opinion.
I feel like I have my emotional eating in check but I know I’ll never really end my emotional eating for good so I do my best. I hope my before and after pics will inspire others to lose weight, keep their emotional eating in check, and start a diet and exercise program they can live with. I know I always like to see before and after pics of people on a diet and losing weight. It always inspires me. Especially when they reach their goal weight.
Well, thanks again for watching my video and I wish you the best of luck with your weight loss and reaching your personal goal weight!

Trying to eat healthy but confused about what to avoid? Nutrition labels can help you make smart food choices.
To complete this How-To you will need:
Patience
Some math skills
Step 1: Look at serving size
Look at the serving size; all numbers on a nutrition label refer to a single serving. You might discover that what you consider a light snack is actually meant to feed four!
Tip: Keep in mind that the calories per serving generally don’t include additional ingredients you may need to prepare the item.
Step 2: Weigh the calories
Look at the line marked “calories.” Limit foods whose “calories from fat” make up more than a third of the total.
Step 3: Chew over the fat
Check out the “Total Fat” section. It tells you the number of fat grams in a serving, plus the breakdown of the kinds of fat. Avoid foods that contain trans fats and whose “percent daily value” of saturated fats is higher than 20 percent.
Tip: Percent daily value is based on a daily intake of 2,000 calories. Growing teenagers and athletes often consume more, while women and older people sometimes consume less.
Step 4: Check your cholesterol
Check the cholesterol number. Steer clear of a “percent daily value” higher than 20.
Step 5: Watch your sodium
Take stock of the sodium number. The average American ingests 3,500 milligrams of sodium per day — 1,100 more than the recommended limit, putting them at risk of developing high blood pressure. And 75 percent of that sodium comes from processed foods.
Tip: Foods labeled “healthy” cannot exceed 360 milligrams of sodium per serving.
Step 6: Don’t sugarcoat it
Look at the sugar content. Aim for foods that have less than 5 grams of sugar per serving.
Step 7: Scan the ingredients list
Scan the list of ingredients. Foods are listed in order of quantity, so those first couple of items should be basic staples and whole foods. Look for a short list, not a laundry list of chemicals you can neither identify nor pronounce, which indicates a highly processed food.
Step 8: Look for the good stuff
Look for the good stuff — at least two grams of fiber per serving and respectable percentages (20 percent or more) of vitamins and minerals.
