Congratulations on whatever weight loss you have accomplished so far.
Keep it up. I know it's hard.

I've done short term dieting in a serious way. Lost 30lbs in about 65
days. Extreme but I managed it. It certainly was NOT easy though. I
was constantly exercising (aerobic) every day and eating very little
calories per day.

That's all I needed to lose to achieve ideal weight and it was so hard
to do. That's pretty short-term though so you can see an end to it
fairly soon. If I got way over like 100 pounds to lose, I doubt I
would even bother. Such a long-term goal can just seem too
overwhelming.

Anyway Cindy, congratulations on losing 60. That's a HUGE
accomplishment. If you can do more, go for it, but if not just try to
maintain that weight.
