No gimmicks work, no magic pills or diet drinks. Good old fashioned exercise is what it takes. If you workout every other day for 30 to 45 minutes, cardio and strength training you will lose weight and build muscle. Dieting will then only consist of moderation and good healthful choices. Make part of your routine, soon you will crave the rush you get from exercise. Live strong! Cathy Warren www.Over60exchange.com I have to agree that after 40 it is really hard to lose weight.

I don't like the way I feel or look, so it's time to take action. Cutting back on portions and Pilates work well for me. I don't fault Oprah, it's really easy to gain weight when you love food!

Short of child-murder (which is still frowned upon by society and would probably increase your lines in the long run), why not wait until your son is in school all day? Then you can sleep. By the time he’s a teenager and the lines return, you’ll be far-sighted and won’t be able to see them as well (nature’s historical gift to those clawing back middle age). Meanwhile, you might experiment with the “no personal comments” mantra. Nothing wrong with a little repression where it counts. For Jennifer:

So many people look to Oprah as a role model- she could promote a deeper, mindful, healing understanding, instead of a very surface-appearance-based superficial diet plan. Kate Harding's blog makes some astute points on the subject as well. http://kateharding.net/2008/12/09/dear-oprah/ It bothers me that Oprah’s very public weight loss struggle leaves the mindful aspect unexamined.
