nope been there done that, had a membership, trainer and all, stayed 96-98 lbs for a year. but now with some stress, and a few other things within a week dropped to 92... but i do exersize regularly and eat atleast 3 meals, not all the same times daily due to work and all that but i do eat the proper amount. a good friend said to eat faster when i start, so that i do not notice i am eatting alot more. tried it and got full alot faster and actually could not eat as much as eatting normal pace.
