I felt my cardio improve a lot but my weight loss had stalled. 2 years ago I made a conscious effort on portion control, easily the hardest thing I had to do for weight loss, I was cranky many nights for about 3 months. Went from 190 to 170 in 1 year and have kept it all off for 1 year.
I haven't read a book on weight loss, counted calories or followed any program. My motivation came from wanting to be in shape so I could do stuff with my kids and hike to the top of Mount Rundle (I've done it 2 years in a row)!
Congratulations to all of you who have made the commitment to losing weight!! If your program is working for you, just go with it.

Yep, in the end, food moderation and an active lifestyle will trump and diet or workout routine!
