P ople afflicted with this condition are st bborn concerning change in their lifestyle. Th y tell me this is more c mmon with diabetes than with most ther medical conditions.

Ease your way nto it. Let's reduce our intake a l ttle at a time, but consistently. F rst, reduce the 2,500 calories by 10% (250 c lories).Do not take away a snack th t you usually have.
