Welcome Glen!!
It's nice to have you here. Tell us more about yourself. What diet/exercise program have you tried?
I've found what works for me is just cutting back, eating healthier, watching calories and fat and exercise is definately a major part of it. I started off doing The Biggest Loser workout DVD, it's awesome and now doing Pilates.
Drinking lots of water is a must and cutting out all soft drinks. I do have a Diet Dr. Pepper every once in a while.
Good luck and let us know more about you!
