Want to get rid of some fat cells as you age? Fat chance.

You're stuck with the number of fat cells you have acquired by about age 20, a new study finds.

Researchers have known that people gain and lose weight at least in part by changing how much fat is in their fat cells. The new finding is particularly important for obese people, who the researchers say can have twice as many fat cells as their lean counterparts.

Susan Cody : From an Avowed Exercise-Hater - The Power of Power-Walking

I am not a gym person, an exerciser or anything close. I hate to exercise. Big word - hate. But I hate it, hate it, hate it. Nay - I despise it!

The main problem with all this exercise malarkey is that it works. And works really well. Exercising lowers stress, lowers weight and strengthens the body. It's really, really good for us. Kind of distressing news for an exercise-hater like me.

Has anybody ever tried Positive Changes for weight loss or know of anybody who has? I was just wondering if it worked and how much it cost?

Have you tried Diet Pills?

I think many women have at least tried diet pills. I made the mistake of trying Alli and spent a lot of money on a bottle and the side effects...let's say I stopped straight away and lost my weight the old fashioned way.

Now that I am maintaining pretty well, I am still seeing ads for tons of weight loss pills, some that cost an absolute fortune.

Alli is FDA approved which made it sell pretty quickly at first but now - not so quickly. Those side effects are pretty terrible!
