You got that right !!
Much, much, more difficult.
I found that Weiight Watchers diet (I did not go to weekly meetings or weigh-ins) worked for me. But my wife ( she's over 50 y's.o.) did go to weekly meetings & weigh-ins and lost over 50 lbs and has kept it off for over 2 yrs.
The points counting system will work. Slowly. One or two lbs at a time... and in 20 weeks, you'll have lost 30-40 lbs. But 20 weeks is almost 1/2 year. Slower is better than fast methods, or slim-pills.
Well....that's my 2 cents!
