I've never deprived myself of anything. I've always thought if you need to lose weight, carry on eating what you like, just eat less. I don't agree with doing without pasta or bread; it's too harsh.
I found that people like rules, and I love to tell people what to do. It's not rocket science when it comes to weight loss. It's about eating a little less and moving a little bit more.
Consumers are going to have get used to eating less meat - to paying more for better quality meat and eating significantly less of it.
One thing I've learned is portion control. So, for example, if I eat pizza, instead of eating the whole thing, I eat three slices, and then I put it up.
It takes about four days of virtuous living to create a little weight loss. That also happens to be the time required to get used to eating less. In other words, if you can get past day three of a fitness regimen, things improve.
I've pretty much always been on a diet since I was born. And the women in my family struggle, so I find the less I think about food, in a way, the happier I am. In general, I think I eat less the less I think about it.
What's happened at 85 is I've lost my appetite. I used to be a little hog when I was young. But now I really don't seem to need it.
I don't diet. I just don't eat as much as I'd like to.
There's no way to fake weight loss - you just kinda have to not eat.
Yes I am a big time foodie, but I make sure to eat a little less than my actual hunger.
I wanted to eat what I wanted but I made sure that portion control was basically half of what I normally would eat.
