most pills and diets seem to end up with hitting a wall and then regaining the weight back. How does ace do with that? I struggle with weight gain too, but in general I just try to do things that will keep me healthy in general. ~5 years ago, I was 25 lbs heavier and could easily eat 2 chipotle burritos or 8 boneless wings a chicken wrap and a side order of fries in one sitting. I left high school at 100lbs, which is way too skinny, but i was so active it was hard to put on weight. Eating too much in combination with my considerably less active college lifestyle, I put on over 50lbs in 2-3 years (it wasn't alcohol, i didn't drink at all). I spent a couple days drinking a ton of liquids and eating lots of very small meals so that i could shrink my stomach back to normal size, then I started eating normal meals again. I haven't eliminated any particular foods, but every once in a while I remind myself that i'm in control of what i eat and how i feel because of it. I want to feel good and look good more than i want that 2nd burrito and the lethargic feeling that comes right after finishing it. I also used sparkpeople.com for a little while, but got bored of it and stopped using it. I used it pretty much just long enough to realize a lot of the food i was eating that i thought wasn't that bad for me was actually pretty bad.
