That is right! Scales sont always tell the tale. I too was brought up that you dont waste and always eat all the left overs, yada, yada, yada...That is a really hard one to break. But I also think that you dont have to use a specific "diet" if you will to loose. Just cut down on what you eat of the bad things...that which you know you have a problem with. I am an A blood type. Along with that my shape is the V, so with those two together, its really hard for me if I dont follow a somewhat stiff regiment...but I have found that I really have to exercise....I will not loose much if I dont. The A blood types are the ones that smell food and gain, literally...lol.
Good Luck to you Halsgal, and if you get off it for a week or so, just jump back on again when things get settled. I think we all forget that it needs to become a way of life to be successful at keeping it off, not just a few months at trying to "loose" it....I dont want to "loose" it because that would infer that I want to find it again! I want to release mine, never to see it again...smile

Never thought about the blood type .but I am an A as well....Just dont want to use that as another excuse, I have given up on "diets I just want to be healthy ...feel good ..slimmer would help .
BTW I think that my not getting the flu is part of eating/living better.
Thats a big bonus.

I dont use the A blood type as an excuse...but if you read on it it explains why so much of what you eat causes you to gain when others dont...there is not much that you can eat, or should I say that I like and can find around me that I would want to eat...I did find that it works though...
