Maybe it's the cream in your coffee, or too many sugary snacks from the break room, or maybe you eat more cheese than you realize, or maybe you have way too many starches in a day. To lose weight check anything that's not healthy food and begin to cut down on portions of them.

on 12/20/2008 I've been doing some of your suggested tips. Find healthy food you like. For me it's chocolate yogurt covered raisins when I'm craving something sweet and chicken and spinach wrap with honey mustard spray salad dressing, YUM! Thanks for the great tips!
